Check out these cool finds the next time you drop by your fave coffee chains:
Starbucks
You’re probably already aware of Starbucks' ever-growing line of tumblers and mugs, which are beautifully displayed on a shelf at every one of their branches. We suggest you browse through each time you pay the coffee shop a visit—they unveil new designs every few weeks or so, and you never know what you might find. Aside from tumblers, their releases often include other cute coffee-related items like reusable straws, ceramic drippers, canisters, and cold-brew makers. They’ve even created stylish bags in their signature colorway and of course, every Christmas season they release their fan-favorite planners.
Check out some of their latest releases:
Available on Lazada; see a list of Starbucks branches.

If you love % Arabica’s pristinely designed interiors, you’ll swoon over the various items you can shop inside each of their stores. They make sneakers, tote bags, backpacks, tumblers, mugs, food containers, and more, each sporting minimalist design that matches the café's clean-cut space perfectly.
