A past article featured on Y101FM.com about Tienda, a hip new store that offered the convenience of purchasing traditional “pasalubong” items for travelers both local and foreign tourists got me interested in one of the items they sold at their store.
I was pretty much intrigue with the products Beachmums was selling being unique and had a wide array of items to offer those who wanted to get some great deals for specialized beach brands.
With Christmas, the favorite season of the year being just around the corner. To beat the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping Beachmums has the ABCs you must put in your list:
A – Authentic. Simplify and go local. Why bother with imported brands that create an abyss in your pockets? And why settle for imitations no matter the class? They have local products uncompromising in style and quality. Rags2Riches bags designed by Rajo Laurel, Amina Aranaz and Oliver Tolentino. EcoVie bags made from recycled kites, cans, and containers. Quirky and kooky shirts for the whole family by googoo&gaga. Philipine-made Sole Statement flipflops – why go all the way to Ipanema?
B – Beach-friendly. Because there is no getting away – think water, sun, sand. Lagu Beach blankets are sand-repellent, quick-drying and allergen free. 100% cotton beach clothing by Beachbaby Ltd. Vogueish Wanderlust swimsuits by Maggie Wilson. For sun protection, get Philippine manufactured Beach Hut sunscreens with 100 SPF.
C – Chic. It has to be sazzy! Give away journals with water lily plant leather covers by Jacinto & Lirio. Or so timely for the season, a handsewn 5-year Life Planner by Kwaderno. For moms who are nursing give Mommy Matters shirts to make breastfeeding easy and pretty. And finally, accesorize! Watch out for Nilikha by Noelle accessories exclusively made for Beachmums.
Beachmums is a specialty store that sells 100% Philippine-made products. It's the store with a soul that aims to pamper, indulge and nourish mommas and their friends from here and abroad. It's their mission to make happy mommas one beach at a time!
