LOOK: Reclaim the summer with the Starbucks x ban.do collection

MANILA, Philippines – Tired of the dark and dreary skies of the country’s rainy season? This new Starbucks collection might just be the dose of cheer you need.

On Tuesday, July 3, Starbucks Philippines drops the international coffee chain’s collaboration with LA-based lifestyle brand ban.do.

The 4-piece collection, which will be available in participating Starbucks stores, is all about the fun summer vibe.

“We are big fans of ban.do’s colorful palettes and the laid-back L.A. style and are thrilled to work with their creative and inspiring design team to bring this popular lifestyle brand to Asia,” said Starbucks Philippines marketing chief Keith Cole in a press release.

There’s a watermelon-shaped Starbucks x ban.do cooler bag (P1,995) that promises to keep drinks cold this summer.

The double-walled mug (P1,295) is adorned with bright floral prints with a pink plastic lid. The ceramic mug comes with a hand-painted gold rim.

For those who want an equally mobile but sturdier option, there’s the stainless steel travel tumbler (P1,395) that features fruit totem artwork and comes with a leak-proof flip lid. The tumbler is made for both cold and hot beverages.

Thinking of an eco-friendly (and cute) vehicle for your iced latte fix? There’s the icons cold cup (P725) that features summery elements including sunglasses and floral prints.

The partnership between Starbucks and band.do is exclusive to Asia. – Rappler.com
