Wondering how to give your favorite luxury bag a second life? These restoration spots in the Philippines might just be your best-kept secret.

If you're looking to restore your designer bags to their former glory in the Philippines, especially around Metro Manila, Mom Violy can recommend E Restore Leatherworks for affordable price. Mom Violy went to visit E Restore on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, with Carmina. Getting a Louis Vuitton bag repaired—especially the shoulder strap—can be tricky and pricey, so finding a reliable place like E Restore Leatherwork in Greenhill's is a win. They’re known for handling luxury items with care, and it’s great to hear Mom Violy had a positive experience.

Just Like the Young Ones the Seniors Think the Same

Just Like the Young Ones the Seniors Think the Same Some people think a senior shouldn't be thinking of purchasing an investment when it comes by a property for them. People believe the negativity that a senior shouldn't invest on a property because to them it is a waste of time and they won't appreciate it. Yes, Carmina did question Mom Violy why she wanted to invest in a property during our pandemic time. Mom Violy said it is not just for me. It is also for you when the time comes when I am not around. At least you have somewhere to live and the value of the property will value more on how much I had purchased. Mom Violy felt being all alone she was thinking ahead of herself.
