Forever 21 VIP opening Mall of Asia

Last July 26 was the VIP opening and the formal addition of Forever 21 to SM Mall of Asia. It had a short program including a fashion show that showcased the latest trends of the Forever 21 Line. The show definitely attracted by passers because Forever 21 never fails to please everyone, may it be during an event or when you are actually shopping into one of their stores. I arrived late so I wasn’t able to get a good seat, but still managed to get a decent view of the whole program. Afterwards, everyone headed up to officially open the store, but only the invited guests were allowed inside, and luckily I was one of them. It gave me the chance to document the 21MEN line inside. I am a fan of the 21MEN line ever since it opened in the Philippines 2 years ago, so I knew what to expect. When I headed to what is usually a small section for guys, it is actually bigger than the one in Makati. I remembered my reaction when I saw the new arrivals, I said to myself: wow! They were all awesome. I like how they used darker tones for their new line, it makes it more appealing to wear. I wanted to grab a few pieces but the long lines of the check out counter discouraged me to. I’ll definitely come back once everyone gets the chance to see the new store so I can avoid long lines.

The 21MEN Section. New tones for basic tees have arrived.
 I spotted a lot of singlets in the store, and they’re actually really nice. I have recently purchased one from 21MEN but the new designs are way better than the one I got on sale.

 Zara Polo,  Zara White Jeans, Zara Jacket, Topman Belt, Penny Loafers from Topman.
I dont know why it didn’t cross my mind to wear at least something from 21MEN knowing that it’s a Forever 21 event. Ill keep that in mind next time to at least show some patronage haha.
 The lines were really long, it reminded me of a check-in counter in an airport.

 Got to meet some bloggers, David Guison and Vern Enciso

Thank you to my friend Arden Santos for featuring us at the Status online mag.


To everyone who has not visited the place yet, go ahead and see for yourself. Forever 21 won’t let you down as always. It officially opened for the public yesterday July 27.

LET THERE BE EUROPE.                                                                                                                                                                            If you might be thinking where I was for the past few days, I can’t summarize it into one post.  It’s quite often that my friends and I grab dinner followed by overflowing drinks that keeps us until sunrise. Last saturday was something new. The most popular road trip destination if you live in the south would always be Tagaytay, and that’s exactly where we went. I’ve had a post about Tagaytay before but this one’s entirely different. We went up to a place called Crosswinds. The whole property looked like it was shipped right from Europe. We went on a hike up here and another place that overlooked the Taal Lake, but because it was raining,the fog had covered up the whole view. When I revived my blog last July, I admit that I was pressured to post outfit shots, but I figured out that

I'M Hotel Makati (Is it the newest 5 star hotel?)

Image
Who is the new kid in town? I'M. (yes, that's the name of the hotel) After spending most of my days working in a hotel, I've adapted a feature that subconsciously notices details of service and even the architectural and engineering aspects. I am proud to be a Filipino hotelier and from now on, I will be exploring more of the country and hopefully SEA nations as I will take you along with me. I'M hotel bags the title as the newest 5-star hotel in the district. But is it really a 5 star hotel? The tall building soaring through the skyline of the CBD's outskirts located in Poblacion sparks curiosity mostly because of it's name. Similar to most, I asked why "I'M hotel" and up to now I still don't have an answer. After passing through the property along Makati avenue countless times, it was like a timelapse of the building's construction until a day came where they've put up a sign written onsen spa.

How to disconnect from the world without the need to travel far

It was 3am when we left Makati. After I came back to Manila from my hometown in Cebu last week, my friends and I headed up north to Zambales, which is about a 4 hour drive from Makati City. The scenery we aimed for was beyond the popular Philippine shores circulating heavily around the internet and we hit jackpot with the coves of Zambales.  Most international travel bloggers arrive the Philippines and cover three main spots "Palawan, Boracay and Cebu" . I absolutely love their content and everyday, I get inspired to create my own. My goal is to show people other spots that are barely developed highlighting the wonders of the country despite the common international impression.  Be prepared by the scenery that Zambales has to offer. The flora resembles nordic fjords splashed with savanna imagery on the inner side. The beaches of the coves sparkle bright during sunlight channeling the shores of Boracay and fades to earthly colours during dusk and sunrise.
