The impulse to wander may have drifted with summer, but the city still inspires its own journeys. In Part I of B/BLOG’s “Stories From the City,” two lovers navigate the thrilling start of a relationship—and in the perfect date night outfits from BENCH.
Chris and Maan play a couple that met one fine summer day out of town and got closer in the city, its confines pushing them toward greater intimacy. We follow them through a sexy melting pot like Makati’s Legaspi Village: letting booze and conversation flow at Stockton Place, biting into pizzas at One Way, and sinking their teeth further into the cool comfort of new love.
With its lamp-lit sidewalks and curious side streets, Legaspi offers the couple a stroll-worthy way to get to know each other. Add a bottle of wine from the corner convenience store and there’ll be a lot more to explore indoors.
