Ukay Destination 7: ISETANN Recto

Sorry I havn't posted anything in a week. I have been very busy lately.

I'm getting alot of emails asking me to cover certain areas. I hope you understand that it's not easy to get around especially if you don't have the luxury of time. I usually go ukay ukay if i have free time after a meeting, so if i don't have anything to do in a certain place it would be too much of a hassle to go there just to go ukay shopping. If I have time, ok lang I can go.

I will also be objective about it. I'll feature first areas I havn't covered yet. So far I've covered Las Pinas, Muntinlupa, Paranaque, Pasay, Makati, and Taguig. So for this feature I'll cover Manila. There are several Ukay Ukay Destinations in Downtown Manila. One place and probably the most convenient is Isetann in Recto.

ISETANN
RECTO

Isetann Recto is an old mall in downtown manila. It has several shops and a department store. Not many people know that there are also ukay ukay shops here. How many you ask? only 2, but these two shops won't disappoint! The 2 shops are HUGE!!! Probably around 400-500 sqms each, that is just a wild guess. The Ukay Shops here are also branches of popular ukay shops in the metro.

The Ukay Shops here are.

1. RTW Surplus Center
2. Passerby Imported Dry Goods

RTW Surplus Center have several shops in Starmall Alabang, While Passerby is a branch of the Popular ukay shop in Cubao.

Again I'll discuss each shop separately so keep coming back for updates!

HOW TO GET THERE:
Recto, Manila
LRT 2 - get off at Recto Station.
LRT 1 - get off at Carriedo Station then ride a tricycle to Isetann.

Ukay Shop 44: MAGARBO 2 Starmall Las Pinas

MAGARBO 2
STARMALL LAS PINAS

This is the second Magarbo shop in Starmall Las Pinas. Unlike the first one this shop use the single pricing scheme, which is Php 100.00 for everything. And like the Magarbo shops in Starmall Alabang, Items become buy one take one, then 3 for Php 100.00, then 4 for Php 100.00. People ask if you can only buy 1 item if they are on sale, The answer is yes, but you still have to pay Php 100.00. You can't bargain to buy it for Php 25.00. So might as well take time to look for stuff. Alot of great finds here! One of my favorite shops!

Ukay Shop 43: MAGARBO Starmall Las Pinas

MAGARBO
STARMALL LAS PINAS

This is one of the two Magarbo Shops in Starmall Las Pinas. Although they carry the same name, they are not similar in concept, pricing wise. This shop is different from the other Magarbo shops, including the ones in Starmall Alabang, becuase their products are more expensive. Remember, Magarbo shops usually use the Php 100.00 for everything pricing scheme. The explanation? They've selected the nicer clothes for this shop, better clothes equates to higher price.

Take note that this shop only sells women's clothing. And it's a very small shop.

Ukay Shop 42: FASHION DE LITE Starmall Las Pinas

FASHION DE LITE
STARMALL LAS PINAS

Fashion De Lite is a popular Ukay Shop in Cubao and they also have a branch in the south, Located inside Starmall Las Pinas! This Ukay Shop sells alot of clothes and shoes with a few bags. Shoes are actually well priced, especially when on sale, and they have lots of it. Staff here are very friendly and its also a comfortable place to shop. It is bright, roomy, and airconditioned.

One thing I noticed about this shop is, it might be an extension of an Ukay Shop in Sucat! Extension meaning some of the unsold clothes in that shop is brought here! How did I know? The clothes I found in the sucat store I found here after a few weeks. Add to that the fact that I sometimes see their cashier in that Ukay Shop in Sucat. I didn't bother to ask but I'm pretty sure both shops are owned by only one person.

Ukay Article 6: UKAY UKAY IN BAGUIO CITY

UKAY UKAY IN BAGUIO CITY
By: http://www.gobaguio.com/

Long before SM City Baguio was erected on Luneta Hill (where grand old Pines Hotel used to stand), office workers in Camp John Hay invited me one day to go to "SM!"

Knowing then that there was no such mall in the City of Pines, I went along and, to my surprise, they took me to a street behind the old Bayanihan Hotel where second hand clothes were for sale.

For that was what SM stood for in Baguio City in the early 1990s -- Segunda
Mano, a Spanish phrase meaning "second hand"), instead of the initials of a popular string of malls in the Philippines: SM, which was originally named Shoe Mart.

Ukay Shop 41: TASI THRIFT SHOP

TASI THRIFT SHOP

Tasi Thrift Shop is the 4th Ukay Shop at Pasay Rotonda. It is between Boogie Boogie Shop and Ukay Ukay Wagwagan. This shop sells clothes, some shoes and bags, and a few toys. This is one of my favorites in the area not only because they have great clothes but they also have great pricing and sale scheme. Their sale time and pricing is almost similar to Ukay Ukay Wagwagan's. Items become Php 75.00, then Php 50.00, then 3 for Php 100.00 until it reaches Php 20.00 pesos. From new arrivals items reach rock bottom prices after just over a month! So it's really a must to always check it out. Although unlike Ukay Ukay Wagwagan it is not airconditioned!

Ukay Shop 40: UKAY UKAY WAGWAGAN Pasay Rotonda

UKAY UKAY WAGWAGAN
PASAY ROTONDA

This is one of the branches of Ukay Ukay Wagwagan, they also have a branch at Makati Cinema Square.

Like their branch in Makati, Ukay Ukay Wagwagan at Pasay Rotonda have great items on sale. This branch sell mostly clothes and a few shoes and bags. This is one of my favorite shops in Pasay Rotonda becuase they lower their prices every week! and items become on sale for like 3 or 4 for Php 100.00 in just a little over a month from the date they arrived in the store! So its a constant new arrival and sale in this shop! Their clothes even go down to Php 10.00 a few days before they sell again their new arrivals.

It is also comfortable to shop here becuase it is airconditioned, and shop attendants are very friendly, unlike the ones at Makati Cinema Square.

Great choices, great shop attendants, great pricing, great shopping experience.... GREAT SHOP!

Ukay Shop 39: BOOGIE BOOGIE SHOP

BOOGIE BOOGIE SHOP

Boogie Boggie Shop is our second ukay shop from Pasay Rotonda. This is also probably the biggest. The shop has 3 floors! If you are also looking for shoes and bags this is the place! The first 2 floors houses the shoes and bags and they do have a great selection for both! I observed that shoes on sale are located on the first floor and those that just arrived/ with little discount are placed on the second floor. For the ladies out there I once spotted a blue marc jacobs heels for about 100 pesos! Talk about designer bargain!!!

As for the bags, sometimes you can also spot authentic designer bags in this store, but again beware because not all bags are authentic, better do your research first.

The third floor houses the clothes colection. They have several menswear and jackets. I like this store for their great selection but I don't like the fact that its not comfortable to shop here (read: VERY HOT!), clothes are a bit pricey, and their sales are not as often as the other shops in the area.

Ukay Business 3: UKAY IS OKAY BUSINESS FOR OFWS AMID CRISIS

UKAY IS OKAY BUSINESS FOR OFWS AMID CRISIS
By: MARK J. UBALDE, GMANews.TV

MANILA, Philippines - In these dire times, it’s okay for overseas Filipinos to invest in ‘ukay-ukay’ (rummage / surplus stores).

This was the advice of economist Federico Macaranas for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who want to go into business despite a gloomy economic climate.

“It is a nice opportunity for you in this recessionary time it would be in food, ukay-ukay, and all cheaper goods that poorer people would buy," Macaranas told GMANews.TV in an interview.

Macaranas, who is also executive director of the Asian Institute of Management Policy Center, explained that the ukay-ukay will be a hit among frugal Filipinos, especially as Christmas day draws near.

I didn't include the grey tights/leggings in my ukay version because first it might already look too styled for runway. Second I dont have grey tights. I like this look alot especially the contrast between the more formal top and very casual bottom.

LIFE STYLE FASHION 3
This is the 3rd Life Style Fashion in Starmall Alabang. I like the fact that half of the store is dedicated to men's clothing, very few ukay ukays are like that. But most of the selection is really sad. I hate it because half of those clothes are discount shirts from the US! Still worth checking because the other half offers great finds particularly the jackets. They also have children's clothing.
This is the last shop of the 15 ukay shops from Starmall Alabang. A really great destination for ukay ukay shopping. Its comfortable, accessible, and offers several choices. Really worth a visit.

PINAY'S UKAY UKAY SHOP A HIT AMONG OFWS IN UAE

A Filipina based in the United Arab Emirates said she owes it to her compatriots for making her Ukay-ukay clothing business a success.

“Sa simula, medyo mahina pero nung nakilala lumakas ng lumakas. Lalo pa ngayon global crisis, mas tinatangkilik ng mga Pilipino dahil mas mura tapos branded pa,” said shop owner Cristy Bulaklak.

Bulaklak’s clothing business is located at Ras Al-Khaiman. With only 800 Dirham as capital, Bulaklak was able to start her business.

Ukay Article 5: DEFINING VINTAGE VS THRIFTED CLOTHING

DEFINING VINTAGE VS THRIFTED CLOTHING
By: Kira Mae Ramirez

Ukay-ukay shops have been sprouting literally everywhere – from the hole in the wall store at the street corner to prolific online shops selling thrifted or so-called vintage clothes.
Why is ukay-ukay popular?

Ukay-ukay is the Filipino version of a “flea market”. The ukay-ukay phenomenon started about five to seven years ago and at that time, ukay stores selling cheap and fashionable items could only be found in Baguio. Bargain hunting is popular because going through racks of clothes to find ‘the’ dress gets your adrenaline pumping, especially when you have to compete with fellow fashionistas who can’t pass up that perfect white summer dress, those lovely boots or that one-of-a-kind edgy graphic-printed skirt.

Ukay Article 4: THE A-Z OF BAGUIO UKAY SHOPPING

THE A-Z OF BAGUIO UKAY SHOPPING
By: Jake Ramirez
Philippine Daily Inquirer

This summer, a Baguio trip is in order, not only because the city is the country’s summer capital, but also because it is turning 100 years old this year.
And, if I may add, Baguio City has also become a fashion capital, thanks to the popularity of ukay shopping, which originated here.

The four key places to visit are Bayanihan, Diego Silang Building, Skyworld, and Harrison. Here’s an A-Z of what you need to remember:
A—Arrive early. Most shops open as early as 9 a.m. Early shoppers get the best choices and even good discounts. Call it buena mano.
B—Burnham Park. The best starting point for ukay expeditions. Old buildings that have found a
second lease on life as ukay sites surround the park named after Daniel Burnham, the same planner that designed Manila and Chicago, USA.
C—Check the merchandise. A good buy is something that will make you go the extra mile.
Always check the stitching, leather and brassware quality. For shoes, the soles should not be in sad state, and should still be salvageable by your friendly shoe repairman.
