Bring It!




Oh the bayong! Use it as either market bag, summer tote, or small doggie carrier, a bayong is chic, useful, and durable. It's a great alternative to plastic bags.

It's bayong season at La Monja Loca! Come down and grab one, we have them in different shapes, sizes, colors, and materials.

This is my friend Ysidra. Isn't she fabulous?

ghostly picture of the day

Carlos en la Ventana

there's nothing like a pamaypay


Dios mio. Hace calor.

There's nothing like a true blue abanico to beat the heat.

We have these and an array of other fans at La Monja Loca. We're right beside Casa Manila, Intramuros.

If you're in the area, drop by this crazy nun's bedroom for postcards of vintage filipiniana, anting-antings (amulets) from Quiapo, Team manila t-shirts and Ivatan raincoats.

Besos,
Sor Juana
