Have you ever gone inside a quaint cafe before wherein you can dine, have an iced latte and shop at the same time? I’m sure you haven’t, right? Empire Fashion Cafe is the first ever coffee shop in Manila wherein you get to go around, find all the things you need to buy and have coffee right in between because it’s all inside one place. They opened their first branch in Marikina last year and now they just opened their second branch in Maginhawa, Quezon City, a few weeks ago. I was so happy to be their special guest on their grand opening. Here’s what happened during the launch:

Their s’mores milkshake is the bomb! You HAVE to try it.

They have over 80+ brands inside their fashion cafe so be prepared to see a lot of cool, trendy clothes and accessories everywhere. You’ll really find everything you need that will make you look and feel beautiful here.

They also have quirky items you can give to your friends and family as unique presents. Speaking of, check out my new vlog entry HERE about special gift ideas you can give to your loved ones.

I’m obsessed with printed socks so I love this section! What’s your favourite pair?

Urban Life’s hats are the bomb. I wanted to buy everything!!! I got the “good vibes” hat and wore it for three days straight.

I literally spent hours inside Empire Fashion Cafe because there are so many cute finds and options.

Time to meet some of my readers! I still get so “kilig” every time someone asks for my photo. There were a lot of new faces and some familiar ones I got to interact with.

Hello Paula! She’s one of my favourite and most supportive readers ever. And the person on the right already attended my book signing before. Nice to see you again guys!

Got this pair of shredded shorts from Her Shoppe.

Bacon mushroom burger, rainbow cake, coffee and S’mores milkshake for the win!

Candid shot! Instagram pa more! Hahaha.
