It's biggest drawback is that it is located on the second floor of Walter Mart. You can find some other shops that are stand alone. Those offer a slightly better ambiance, but this location is worth visiting. It has a large variety of merchandise to choose from at discounted prices, even if not listed at the ₽66 or ₽88 price.

Robinsons Department Store at the Festival Supermall has the best deals on toys, baby gear and…read moreclothes for infants, toddlers and kids. Robinsons has a wide selection of toys and other stuff for babies that it is our main source for our son's necessities and gifts. What's good is that their merchandise go on sale every month! When we want to get something for our little one, we just wait for the bargain weekend before making a purchase. It pays to wait for that season as we always get good deals on top brands. Among our best buys at the Robinsons Department Store are the Fisher Price portable booster seat, Avent toddler bowl, Mickey Mouse walker, Looney Tunes crib, and his Mickey Mouse stroller. Apart from the great buys that we have from this store, we appreciate the members of the sale staff for being helpful and accommodating in answering our queries and giving a demo of the goods that we intend to buy.

I've been looking for some picture frames for my room and I'm quite surprised to find them in Metro…read moreDepartment Store. Metro is your usual department store with a floor dedicated to certain things. One floor for furniture and decorations, another for beds and couches, one floor for kitchen things, etc. The one in Alabang Town Center is quite organized well so it's easy to find things. We went to the area with all the picture frames and they had a pretty good selection for small frames that are for 4R, 5R, and up to 8 x 12. If you're looking for some picture frames that are for pictures sized 4R to 8 x 12, try having a look at Metro. If it's anything bigger, I suggest you go to a framing company instead. The price for their frames are okay and the design is quite modern and could be in a way minimalist if you look hard and choose carefully. There's still nothing like printing out your pictures and getting them framed. Aside from frames, Metro has almost everything you could find in other department stores. They also have a food court and a supermarket with a drugstore in the bottom floor.

I remember when I was still a new mom, I was so conscious about breastfeeding my daughter in…read morepublic. Whenever I'm out with my baby, I would always bring feeding bottles and stored milk so I wouldn't have to breastfeed in public, or if I had to, I would go to the most secluded area I could find. I love shopping for baby stuff in Rustan's at Alabang Town Center so I was really happy when I found out that they have a breastfeeding area inside their store. It's not just a nursing room per se, but more of a baby room. There's an area where toddlers can play and read, and a small crib where you can change baby's dirty nappy. I like that it feels more like a baby's room at a friend's house rather than a common room at the mall. And it's located inside Rustan's (near the Infants and Toys section) so I don't have to leave the department store area if I need to nurse my baby.

Man, I've grown up a lot but the Rustan's in Alabang town Center is still standing. It's weird to…read moresee this place now that I'm older and it not changing one little bit. Sure the products on their shelves have changed with each passing seasons, but that's to be expected. This was where I used to buy my Pokemon cards when I was a lot younger during my elementary days. Rustan's is still the place to go to if you're looking for something fancy and classy. I mean, Rustan's is practically synonymous with big name brands. Brands that you would rarely see anywhere else in fact. I passed by the other day and found out that they know stocked items from the designer Oleg Cassini for crying out loud. I don't think I'd find that anywhere else other than Rustan's. If you're looking for a fancy pair of shoes, threads, cosmetics or whatever then Rustan's is your best bet.

My sister and I used to joke that you could go around SM Molino in more or less 10 minutes. That's…read morehow small it is. Indeed, this mini mall (let's call it that) is only two floors, and most of its second floor is occupied by the Hypermarket. Don't get us wrong, though. We actually like it here. It the closest mall to where we live (it actually stands on the entrance of our subdivision, Citihomes, so we have to pass it on our way to school or work and back home). It has made grocery shopping and film viewing, among other things, so convenient for us. Aside from Hypermarket, this SM Center has Watson's, National Bookstore, CD-R King, Bench, Penshoppe, Preppy, Mendrez, Get Laud, Blue Magic, Rusty Lopez, Oxygen, Unisilver, etc., for your shopping needs. Meanwhile, for the foodies, it has Greenwich, Domino's, Max's, Chowking, KFC, Mang Inasal, Jollibee, Red Ribbon, Pizza Hut, and Goldilocks, etc. It also houses a few hair and nail salons, a massage service, skin clinics, a music store, a sports store, a courier service, and an Internet cafe. What is also great is that this place is a techy haven, with Globe, Smart, and Sun shops, as well as so many stalls and stores for mobile phones and computers and accessories. The mall is currently in the midst of a huge renovation, which probably means it won't be a mini mall for long. We don't look forward to the heavier traffic this will bring to our little part of town, but we can't wait to have more shops to explore when the construction finishes.

Remember when you were in highschool and you had no idea what to wear for Prom? Well back then, we…read moreonly had beepers and tamagochis and the internet had almost nothing in it. There were no smart phones, no Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest to help us figure out what kind of dress was best. Even more, most of our stores back then were local. No Zara or Mango stores at the time and if we needed something formal, a trip to the local mananahi with our mothers who usually decide on everything was our only option. Nowadays, kids have it easy. They can easily just go to Se La Vi Clothing and walk away worry-free, clutching a new gown that fits like a glove. It's no wonder so many ladies trust this shop- they can create a custom dress from scratch, working with little as a sketch and create something beautiful in a short amount of time. For students in need of a prom dress, I suggest you get in touch with Angelie Sevilla, the owner at least 2 months before your prom. Best to get ahead of everyone.
