They're so gorgeous and CHIC but soo ultra mega expens$$ive!! Click here to see a selection of Celestina products are available online at Vivre.





I find "Beektur's" comment laughable. I don't think the designer of Celestina attempted to claim total originality for her stuff. However, she is the first to make these items totally luxurious. Once again, it's so easy to diss somebody especially if that person's doing well. Cheer up!

First time to comment here only because Tina Ocampo did it again. These items have been sold in the souvenir stalls in Cebu and SM Filipiniana sections for decades now. The idea is not hers.I remember buying hordes of this for my mom and aunts when I went to Cebu...in 1991! Shameless.
