BU Alert!

Sooo many prizes up for grabs on December 3, 2011. The day is packed! Our sponsors have a lot of prizes to giveaway.

A few things to look forward to from a bunch...

- Rio Mints Pick-a-Prize! Just pick out from the bunch and you just might get lucky!

- Multiply will be giving LOTS of GCs for on-the-spot online shopping. Valid only throughout the event!

- We will have an open mic by 7pm. Performances from Walkie Talkies (Raleene Cabrera) and Reese and Vica!

I've heard there's also a mini Tomato Clothing fashion show and more!

Don't miss this chance to meet and greet the bloggers you follow! I am super excited about this because I am a fan myself! Hope to see you there! =)





Manila’s finest fashion bloggers will leave their laptops at home once again to attend BLOGGERS UNITED BAZAAR (Part 2) on December 3, 2011 at Treston International College, Taguig, this coming holiday season.

It is the second installment of the first-ever Bloggers United: An Interactive Shopping Affair, which was held last May. Due to insistent demand from readers and bloggers alike, Bloggers United (http://www.facebook.com/bloggersunitedph) team in partnership with the country’s largest online shopping website, Multiply Philippines (http://multiply.com/) have gathered Manila’s fashion bloggers to sell their pre-loved but very stylish closet pieces!

This event is the perfect opportunity for both bloggers and their adoring readers to mingle and personally interact with each other. Fun contests and exciting giveaways from sponsors and entertaining performances from bloggers (Walkie Talkies, Reese & Vica) themselves will definitely keep this event from being a dull one.

Some of the notable bloggers attending the event include Divine Lee, Laureen Uy, Kookie Buhain, Lissa Kahayaon, David Guison, Karl Leuterio, Patricia Prieto and Preview Magazine’s own Daryl and Andre Chang.

But because Bloggers United wishes to go beyond the geographic limitations of the archipelago and extend its reach beyond Metro Manila and so for this event, they are flying in some of Cebu’s very own fashion bloggers which include Kryz Uy, Eden Villarba, designer Yves Camingue, Gillian Uang and Mildred Zapanta and a few more.

Part of the proceeds from this event will go to the GMA Kapuso Foundation (http://www.kapusofoundation.com/) for its school building project, a small but significant step to improve the Filipino youth’s access to education.

The organizers behind BLOGGERS UNITED BAZAAR (PART 2) are Ana Gonzales (http://anagonzales.com), Melai Entuna (http://styleandsoul.blogspot.com) and Aisa Ipac (http://ipaxme.blogspot.com), a team of blogger friends encouraging camaraderie and sense of “community” among Manila’s (and eventually, the country’s) fashion blogging community through events and productions like this.

This is a one-day-only event that you shouldn’t really miss! It will be in a bigger venue with twice more the number of participating bloggers to meet! This is the perfect shopping day this Christmas because the most affordable and most fashionable clothes, accessories and footwear will be up for grabs. See you!

YDC 10th edition





The longest running fashion competition in the Philippines is back once again to introduce the newest additions to Philippine fashion. MEGA Young Designers Competition (YDC) was created by Sari Yap, founder of the MEGA Publishing Group and EIC of MEGA magazine, to highlight the immense talents of aspiring Filipino designers. She envisioned a gathering of creative minds that can bring Philippine fashion to the runways of the world.

The competition opened doors for countless designers to find their niche and establish their names in the industry. As the new season of YDC officially begins on November 26, 2011, MEGA looks back and highlights past designers who have been part of the competition.

Russel Villafuerte, winner of the 9th edition of YDC, shared, “It’s such a great privilege to be part of that elite group of top designers in the country who joined YDC.” Something for viewers to look forward to, Russel revealed his experience. “You get to see a lot of things in the challenges like making gowns and couture in just 8 hours!”

For the first female designer winner of YDC, Vanessa Ang was happy to mention that YDC opened a lot of doors in her career. “I got to meet a lot of people and got invited to all these fashion events that introduced me to different people and provided me with more knowledge on the industry.”

Dubai based Furne One - who was part of the first YDC competition - has already made an international mark with his designs. International celebrities Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj are some of the artists who have already worn his outfits in various occasions.





Other notable fashion figures who joined the competition are some of the Philippine’s most revered designers like Rajo Laurel, Raoul Ramirez, Mich Dulce, Ivarluski Aseron, Chris Diaz, OJ Hofer, Patrice Ramos-Diaz and the internationally acclaimed Veejay Floresca to name a few.

The question is, “Who is the next?”

It is through fashion that designers tell their story of inspirations and creations. The highly anticipated YDC constantly looks for designers who have fresh and innovative concepts to prove that they deserve their needed break in the industry. Watch once again as the passion, aesthetic and skills of 18 new breed designers unfold in the 3rd season of MEGA’s Young Designers Competition.

Catch Generation MEGA Season 3: MEGA Young Designers Competition every Saturday starting November 26, 2011 at 7pm, with replays on Sundays at 10am, only on ETC.

UNSCRIPTED by Sarah Meier and Vicky Herrera





When two professional interviewers come together in one radio booth, the listener is guaranteed entertaining and insightful conversations.

It’s not common for radio shows to feature legends such as Madame Imelda Marcos, rockstar Raimund Marasigan, educator Gang Badoy, iconic hip-hop group Mastaplann, and PBA legend Jeff Cariaso, among many others, to guest. But “The Dollhouse”, a radio show hosted by Sarah Meier and Victoria Herrera, has.
Sarah Meier: Model, MTV VJ, TV host, scriptwriter, radio DJ, and newspaper columnist.
Victoria Herrera: Model, TV host, editor, radio DJ, newspaper columnist and journalist.Now, they are adding something else to their already jam-packed resume: author of Unscripted.

Unscripted is a book of the compilations of the conversations Sarah and Vicky had with the Real OGs - people who were deemed influential and innovative in their respective fields. Why? Well, let’s just say that the conversations were too valuable not to be immortalized. Reading about the different lessons and trials that each OG encountered in their rise to success is both inspiring and thought-provoking. Indeed, the unscripted conversations are the ones straight from the heart.

Grab your hands on Unscripted coming out on Dec. 13, 2012 at Fully Booked.

For more information about the book and to get a sneak peek of the excerpts (the one of Lourd de Veyra is already out!) please visit http://unscriptedconversations.com/.

It's not a skirt





Thrifted top, SM pants, the bag was a gift from my sister, turban from Evita Peroni, rings from Gold dot, Cosmo and Anagon, shoes- Urbanog, Spiked necklace from SM, Long fringe necklace from jhajing.multiply.com




















I was with Eunice once again but we didn't get to take a photo of the two of us together. Here's a photo with Kaye Awatin. We kind of developed a habit of bumping into each other during the fashion week. Pleated much? Oh and I love her belt too! Look! =)





Here's a phtoto with THE Michael Cinco. I saw him walking and I didn't want to miss that chance to have a photo with him. I am such a fan!





Okay so I don't have any blog worthy runway photos but I must say that I was truly blown away by the details and how intricate the designs were. I just felt terrible seeing the models being truly challenged to walk in some of the gowns. It pays to rehearse wearing the actual dress I guess. It was comforting to see the person who came up the runway to help out one model that was down. If you have seen the show you probably know what I am talking about.

So anyway, I have been terribly ill. I have been feeling sick since Friday- no actually it started to kick in Wednesday palang- I can't believe it's been a week! I better visit a doctor soon. I'm getting more and more ngongo these past few days.

Because I'm sick, I have been staying indoors most of the time to rest at least after going home from work. Yes I still go to work everyday. I missed going to ATC for the bootcamp. Sucks to be me! Goodtimes with Mo is what's keeping me entertained while being stuck at home. Been podcasting and listening to old ones too. I have downloaded a few more so I'm sure it'll be fun.

This is all for now. Until my next post! Ciaola! =)

Triumph- Tailors Of Female Shape

Triumph is practically a brand I've seen growing up. I remember my elder sister would normally buy a bunch of different styles. I always thought as a kid that it's not necessary since no one can see it anyway. As I grew older I came to realize what it does. People might not see what your're wearing underneath but a good undergarment gives you that instant sexy feeling that just comes right out. And when a woman feels sexy she becomes even sexier don't you think?

Thanks to Claudine of Leung DeLeon Marketing for sending me an invitation to the show as they participate in the Philippine fashion week and of course for the beautiful gift! =)

Here's what I wore.









Belt- Terranova, Top and Skirt- thrifted, Shoes Jessica Simpson Dany's, Necklace- Newyork101, Rings- Jhajing and Anagon









Photo taken from 32nd and 7th BGC. Allan and I grabbed a bite and had coffee before heading home from MOA.





Here as some photos during the show.













































































I had such a great time having to spend time with Ava, Angel and Keigh. We missed out on the next show held in SMDC grand showroom but it was all worth it.









I have more pending PFW posts please bear with me. =)
