3.) ZALORA to Launch Marketplace

ZALORA, Asia’s leading online fashion destination, has announced it will be launching ZALORA Marketplace in the first half of this year. ZALORA Marketplace will allow vendors from all over Southeast Asia and Hong Kong to create their own branded storefront within the ZALORA site, which will be run and maintained by the seller with support from a dedicated ZALORA account manager. They will also benefit from a huge increase in brand exposure through free online marketing and advertising that will be part of ZALORA’s overall marketing campaigns.

Set to be one of the most beneficial fashion Marketplaces in Southeast Asia for independent fashion designers and sellers, customers across the region will also benefit from hundreds to potentially thousands of new products and brands available online without having to visit different shopping portals.

A dedicated and localized ZALORA Fashion Scout force is currently searching for and recruiting potential brands and designers to come on board for launch.

ZALORA Marketplace is currently open to applications from potential sellers and details can be found here (http://www.zalora.com.ph/marketplace/sell-with-us/).

4.) All Dolled Up: Paperdolls Holiday 2013 Collection

All dolled up. This might be one of first things that may come into mind when Paperdolls is mentioned. As a matter of fact, this is the very core idea of the brand. Tracing back its roots to creating dainty cardboard cutouts in order to fulfill a fashion fantasy, Paperdolls has definitely gone a long way. Today, with three other brands (Milly, Scoop Proj. and Pd & Co.) that allow the company to spread its goal of helping women feel better by looking better, Paperdolls continues to empower Filipinas to celebrate the simple pleasures of dressing well and smart.

This Holiday season, Paperdolls takes women of today to an era of romantic dressing, pre-war elegance, and retro-active glamour with three captivating collections. Winter Garden is all about showing and flaunting the best florals for the holiday season. Opulence is all about richness, depth of color, lavish details, like lace paneling and overlays in burgundy, black, and cobalt. Holiday Collage jumps off from a classy interpretation of quirky, mixing print favorites like stripes and checks with more vintage ones.

Paperdolls and its other brands are available in the following retail outlets:

· Paperdolls: Department Stores in SM Supermalls and Robinsons Malls

· Milly: Department Stores in SM Supermalls

· Scoop Proj.: Boutiques in SM Pampanga, San Lazaro, Sta. Rosa, North EDSA and Fairview

· Pd &Co.: Boutiques in Robinsons Ermita, Galleria, Festival, Pampanga and Metro East, Market Market, Marquee Mall, and Department Stores in Landmark Trinoma and Makati, KCC Gen. Santos and Island City Mall

Lee Min Ho is Coming to Manila + Giveaway!

I know a lot of people who loves K-POP and Korean telenovelas (yes that includes you Dad, weird)... wish I was one of them. But the closest thing I ever got to K-POP lovin' was my past obsession over Meteor Garden then slightly over Boys Over Flowers, which brings me here, my knowledge and liking of Lee Min Ho popularly known as Jun Pyo.

My family was a huge fan of the show that my brother Joot (who honestly believes he looks like Jun Pyo) changed his facebook name to Joot Pyo. Very original. Haha. It's still his facebook name. Haha.

Anyway, speaking of Lee Min Ho, he's coming back to Manila very soon!!! Okay, July 6 to be exact. He's currently doing a world tour and he's bringing it here in Manila! So mark your calendars! “My Everything – World Tour 2013”, Saturday, July 6 at the Mall of Asia Arena. If you happen to be in these cities and countries -- Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok, Beijing, Kuala Lumpur, Shanghai, Osaka, Hong Kong and the United States-- then don't miss out, he's coming for you too! With the release of Lee Min Ho’s first album entitled “My Everything”, this will be his way of thanking his supportive fans around the world.

But here are a few more infos about Lee Min Ho...

Lee Min Ho is arguably one of the most sought after and recognized Korean actors today. Still in his 20s, Min Ho has already claimed a comfortable seat in the international stardom. Min Ho’s acting career began in 2005 with small roles in several dramas, but his first big career break came when he took the lead role as Gu Jun Pyo in “Boys Over Flowers”.

Despite pessimistic claims from critics that Lee Min Ho’s massive popularity would die down after the Boys Over Flowers craze, the talented actor has proven to be a no one-hit wonder.

He continued to star in several blockbuster dramas, including “Personal Taste” (renamed “Perfect Match” in the Philippines) and the action drama “City Hunter”. Lee Min Ho is also one of BENCH clothing’s current international endorsers.

Tickets to Lee Min Ho’s “My Everything – World Tour 2013” in Manila are available at all SM Ticket outlets or visit www.smtickets.com. For VIP tickets and more information about the concert, call Wilbros Live at 374-9999 (Follow Facebook.com/WilbrosLive and Twitter @WilbrosLive).

Bench (BDO) Mastercard just turned 1 and they celebrated it in style. To reward their loyal Bench Mastercard holders, they held a shop-all-you-can treat/contest! 36 lucky winners were chosen to shop P35k/P15k/P5k worth of products from their chosen Suyen stores. I was able to witness the 1st leg at SM Megamall and it was crazy! They were only given 1-3 minutes to shop in each store. Kept wishing we (Sarah, Tin and I) were in their shoes. Lucky lucky! While waiting for the shoppers, we went around and checked out Bench's new collections. We all loved it!

UNHOLY by Bench x Furne One x Reina Hein

This year has been one helluva ride for BENCH (the good kind where you scream your lungs out from happiness)-- from Hollywood stars to Korean heartthrobs, they're showing no signs of slowing down! Their collaborations and campaigns always surprises me. I'm sure you were stunned (in a good way) at the beauty that is the Bench x Michael Cinco x Allison Harvard campaign for his perfume Impalpable. Now a new scent is coming your way. This time Bench partnered with one of the country's most respected designers, Furne One! Just like the Impalpable campaign, they chose another ANTM alumna, Reina Hein, to be the face of their new scent "UNHOLY by One". Here are photos from the successful launch!
