Tita Ludette is always so thoughtful and always checks on Dad. Again she invited Dad over for dinner and she of course cooked a wonderful meal for us. Miam Miam!! ( Yummy in French ) 
She told James and I that we did not have to come as they were all “senior citizens” and we might get bored…apparently not! We enjoyed our time with Tita Ludette who is always very entertaining and enjoyed listening to their conversation and learning from them Thanks Tita for watching over Dad

Playful, fun, and stylish are the design elements that embody French female fashion brand Caché-Caché. It provides young ladies with endless possibilities to freely express themselves and their fashion sense with its bubbly, amusing, and sophisticated apparel and accessories.
The French phrase cache-cache means the game “hide and seek”. With Caché-Caché, customers can feel the spirit of “game” and “fun” they create. They change their styles according to different moods, whether it is impish, playful, natural, adventurous, sparkling and so on. Style mavens can get to experiment and be rebelliously fashionable with its apparel and accessories that fit whatever game you would like to put on without sacrificing quality and sophistication.
The brand had its beginnings in Saint Malo, France in 1985. Caché-Caché is one of the 5 fashion labels under the Beaumanior Group. With the successful acquisition of the famous Morgan brand in 2009, Beaumanoir Group accelerated their pace of development, combined with the advantages of the brand’s resources and advanced management experience. One of the keys to their success is due to its “willing-to-share” rather than “ready-to-take” franchising system. Caché-Caché started to establish itself in the international market in 2005, with Shanghai being the chosen location for their first international store. Following this, similar launches were made in Saudi Arabia, Poland, United Arab Emirates, Italy, Turkey, Belgium, Spain, Greece, Romania, Singapore – and soon in Manila!
With Caché-Caché’s cool, chic, and vibrant designs, it continues to become the favorite partner in fashion of many stylephiles all over the world and now in Manila!
In the Philippines, CACHE-CACHE is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) and is available in SM Megamall Building B, Ortigas Pasig City.
