10 Things We’re Loving Now: Love Letters to the Dead, zombie ice, Sherlock shirts + more
Random geekiness is our shopping theme.
Â
(SPOT.ph) Our haul this week is as random as the lottery. We have ice shaped like a zombie hand, pencils that are so ninja, cute animal speakers. R2D2 probably never expected to become a USB, but hey, at least it’s not a trash can.
Â
Â
Love Letters to the Dead (P799)
Think Perks of Being A Wallflower, but in the voice of a 17-year-old girl. Even Stephen Chbosky was impressed with Eva Dellaira’s writing debut. The epistolary novel relates the story of a high school freshman as she writes to dead icons like Kurt Cobain, Heath Ledger, and Judy Garland to help her deal with her own grief-on top of growing up and a secret past traumatic experience. It’s a bold, dramatic, and sometimes quirky telling of moving on.

Bear and Chick Kitchen Mold (P180)
Spruce up your next meal with cute bear and chick molds, perfect for molding rice, sushi, and cookies. Imagine waking up to a plate of bear and chick-shaped pancakes.

R2 D2 Flashdrive (P520)
Skip the boring USB flashdrives. If you’re a Star Wars fan, you’re in luck. It’s also available in various characters, like Darth Vader, Darth Maul, and a Storm Trooper. We’re still waiting for the Han Solo version.

Â
Out of Print Sherlock Holmes shirt (P999)
Out of Print makes literature-themed T-shirts and donates one book to communities in Africa for every product sold. It was a tough choice to go for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle over Burgess. Or Fitzgerald. Or Hemingway. You get the idea.
Available at Fully Booked, Bonifacio High Street
Â
Kokopa Pals Mini-Speaker (P799.95)
Get cute when sharing music with a mini-speaker that looks like a bunny-it would make a great conversation starter with your office crush. But don't tell anyone we said that.
Available at Howards Storage World, Shangri-La Plaza

Â
3D Ice Mould (P599)
