Weekday Whimsy Diaries: Flying Finds at Flying Tiger Copenhagen

There's something magical about walking into a place that makes you feel like a kid again—but with better taste and a credit card. That’s exactly how I felt when I wandered into Flying Tiger Copenhagen during our Weeekday Whimsy Week. Rows of pastel perfection, quirky Danish charm, and functional little delights had me smiling at every turn.

And no, a richer life doesn’t have to cost a fortune—just look at the entrance sign and their ₱80 napkins!

Let me take you through some of my favorite finds:

🛒 Mini Pink Shopping Baskets

How do you say “adorably unnecessary” in Danish? Because these mini baskets made me squeal. Perfect for organizing washi tapes, pens, or even crafting supplies for the Lady E Passport kits (more on that soon!). I might just use them as part of a display setup for pop-ups. Too bad I wasn't able to buy one as I was already lugging a lot from KKV. But next time I see these, I'm swiping one!

🎂 Cake Servers That Whisper Sass

"Happiness is a piece of cake." Yes, darling, it is—and these porcelain cake servers will remind you every time. I love gifting items like these as part of a tea party or homemaking kit.

🎁 Holiday Finds

Nutcracker soldiers? Check. Mini plush reindeer? Also check. They might be holiday leftovers, but they’re gold for planners like me who prep early for December booths and themed content.

🥤 Fridge-Shaped Mugs

The pink square mugs with stainless steel straws scream 'aesthetic hydration.' Ideal for smoothie breaks or your own iced lemon water in between work sprints.

🍒 Grip Seal Bags with Fruit Prints

Who said storage can’t be cute? These lunch/snack bags make everyday routines feel just a bit more elevated.

🎄 Serviette Napkins in Adorable Shapes – Gingerbread men, Christmas trees, even a Santa mail envelope.

Perfect for parties, table settings, or stuffing inside a care package for a friend.

💡 Whimsy Tip of the Week

Always ask: Can I use this item to make something better, gift something prettier, or organize something faster? That’s how we build systems that work—and stay cute doing it.

The Pleasure of Leaving It Behind

I really liked this dress. Enough that I stood there looking at it for far longer than necessary, having that familiar little debate with myself. It was black. Simple. Very me. I could already imagine how I would wear it. There was only one problem. The fabric was thick. And perhaps in another climate, or another version of my life, that wouldn’t matter very much. But I live in the Philippines. We’re going through El Niño. Heat and I are already not particularly good friends, and my histamine sensitivity has made me even less willing to wear something that might leave me uncomfortable simply because it looks good. Still, I stood there. Because sometimes walking away from something we like is strangely difficult, even when we already know it isn’t right for us. We start negotiating. Maybe I’ll only wear it indoors. Maybe the fabric isn’t that thick. Maybe I’ll regret leaving it behind. Then I realized I was trying awfully hard to convince myself to buy something my body had alrea...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...
