I don't usually go down South coz it's like another country to me, seriously. But when I got an invite to check out Funky Plum Vintage --a boutique in Pergola Mall, BF Paranaque--it swayed me and of course I said yes. They had me at the word "vintage ". Heeh. The owners were also kind enough to fetch me at someplace I know (glorietta) and then dropped me off after. Now that's what you call great service!:)
Funky Plum Vintage is a specialty store that offers personalized boutique type services such as personal shopping, style consultations, customization & alteration. Their inventory consists of one-of-a-kind designer stock lots (Marc Jacobs , Balenciaga, Chloe, DVF, etc.). Their pieces are all vintage or vintage -inspired.
The first thing I noticed is their store set-up/interiors. It's very well designed, well thought of.
Their window display is so nice too! Even the styling. I love it.

Also got to meet the store's gorgeous owners who were sooooo nice, machika & accommodating. :)
Sheila's gorgeous accs! Made by FPV's artisan:)
So without further ado, here's a tour of their lovely store and all the treasures you'll find inside. All items were personally handpicked by the owners! Wanna know the best part? Items are priced reasonably. Nothing above P1k except for their handmade accessories. Temptation island at it's best! Hehe. Oh and did I tell you they alter for free?:)
dresses galore
gorgeous maxi dress! love the super low back:)
love the patchwork on this jacket!
pants/trousers
my favorite--a fully beaded/sequined dress!
lace love (with owner Sheila)

Can't help but notice this ultra chic zebra print boots, Eco bags & cute buttons
more necklaces & H&M heels

love their wire accs, wooden square cuffs, oversized pearl necklace & feather hairpiece!
Their accessories are specially designed & crafted exclusively for FPV by a skilled artisan:) Cool huh?
They're made of copper & brass hardware mixed with semi precious stones:)
love the feather details!
Accs shelf
original vintage & modern vintage shoes
cute rings
This belt was owned by the owner's grandma! I think they're gonna sell replicas of this soon, yey!:)
I really had so much fun trying on a whole rack of clothes (hehe) and talking to the owners! My photog friend Christine also dropped by, so double the fun! She also tried on clothes and wasn't able to resist buying a cute vintage green/yellow dress. :)
Thank you again Sheila & Tata for one amazing shopping night/experience!
I'm in vintage heaven:)
