Forever Summer with ROXY + Giveaway!

I've always had this love-hate relationship with our weather (lalo na pag summer waah) and the beach, but ever since Nico and I got together I've learned to love it. I could now stay under the sun and not squirm like a worm under it. Haha. I have also learned to let go of my apprehensions and insecurities when it comes to my skin color. Anyway, this is not a skincare post (LOL), but in relation to my newfound love for the beach is my obsession with awesome beach wear or swim wears. One brand on top of my mind when it comes to that (as well as outdoor activities) is ROXY! It has become my constant travel companion. My Roxy fam sent me a getaway set a few weeks ago and I love it...

Ever New's Dress of the Day Promo

I've known Ever New ever since they opened their first store in Manila. Personally, I am a fan of the brand! If you go through my closet, you would see Ever New pieces I bught mostly on sale (hihi) which I am keeping until now. Ever New pieces are always classy, stylish and I most especially love the fit and colors of their clothes. Ever so girly, ever so pretty! Now, they are giving back to their loyal customers through their exciting new Instagram promo: Dress of the Day or #DOTD! 

Instantly fell inlove with this dress!

Jose Cuervo Launches Dons of Tequila

If Jose's a real person, then he surely witnessed me grow-up. Haha! Wag ako tularan, but I've been patronizing Jose Cuervo since forever. I have so many fun Cuervo memories especially during my highschool days. Haha! Okay ayoko na ishare but you get my point. So anyway, they recently launched their newest contest na super bongga! Here are photos from the launch and details of their new promo!

Kicks Start

I think it's pretty obvious how my sneakers obsession came about. Comfort & Style. I just had to. Can't run in pretty heels right? It's just the perfect choice for "girls on the go" who are after functionality yet wouldn't want to compromise style. It's pretty amazing how you could play with this trend & interpret it into 101 ways. You could always go for dainty romantic ala Taylor Swift, grunge ala Cara Delevigne, high-fashion mala Rihanna.  Db??? Haha. Anyway, aside from comfort & style, budget should also be put into high consideration. Lalo na for budget conscious girls like me! I'm so glad to have discovered SM Kicks, SM's new sneakers line, who conveniently married all 3 components!

Make Your Own Havaianas 2014 VIP Invite Giveaway!

My favorite time & event of the year has come! Havaianas brings Brazil to the Philippines through Make Your Own Havaianas 2014. As the summer season hits full throttle, it’s that special time of the year when Havaianas gives us the creative license to decorate this season’s must-have accessory—flip-flops. 

In its ninth year, Make Your Own Havaianas returns to its Brazilian roots. After all, flip-flops were made to perfectly complement the Brazilian vibrant lifestyle: vivacious, expressive, adventurous, and always the life of the party.

Inspired by a 200-year old tradition from Brazil, this year’s commemorative pair features colorful Bonfim wish ribbons that are worn for good luck. The print wishes every wearer Alegria, Diversao, Empolgacao, Euforia, and Felicidade or Joy, Amusement, Excitement, Euphoria and Bliss – true to the Havaianas always summer spirit.

This year’s event is made even bigger and more accessible. At the heart of Makati, Make Your Own Havaianas 2014 will take place in its new home at the Glorietta Activity Center from May 8 (Thursday) to 11 (Sunday), 2014 open from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays, and 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM on weekends. There will be no entrance fee so everyone is welcome to customize their own Havaianas and celebrate the streets of Brazil.

Nestle Non-Fat Flaunt It The White Trunkshow + Giveaway!

The finest brands in wellness and fashion recently partnered and came up with an amazing event & fashion show last May 21 at The Loft at Manansala, Rockwell. The Nestle Non-Fat Flaunt It: The White Trunkshow happened as a grand collaboration between Nestle, Cosmopolitan Magazine and Preview Magazine. It also stems from Nestle's (Non-Fat Milk) summer campaign "Flaunt It This Summer".  The event is a re-launch of Nestle's new product the Nestle Non-Fat Milk which inspired the fashion show. Preview invited 4 designers to come up with a 2-piece collection fit for the theme, modeled by Cosmopolitan's 6 sexiest muses.

*some photos grabbed from Gencified & Miss Pretty Little Petite 

Opening Remarks by Nestle CEO John Martin Miller

Myrza Sison, Cosmpolitan Magazine Editor

Pauline Suaco-Juan, Preview Magazine Editor

The designers with the muses and their works of art:)

Designers: Kristel Yulo, Jot Losa, Cherry Veric & Vania Romoff

Muses: Karina Cabiling, Ana Sideco, Jasmine Maierhofer, Valerie Weigmann, Jessica Yang, Catriona Gray and Michelle Panemanglor 

Now let's veer away from fashion for a second and discuss health & wellness! 

 love the set-up

 ...and the food!

Was able to try the milk and loved it. I am a huge milk drinker (better believe it haha) bilang feeling nurse palagi si Mich haha. Plus, it helps me with my constipation. Anyway, Nestle's new product is perfect for all the health and body conscious people out there!:) You get the nutrients you need yet it's got less than 1% fat so not much calories. Woot. 

 

This is perfect for people who run or exercise because it has protein for muscle repair, calcium for bone strengthening, and carbohydrate for energy replenishment. You can be sexy & healthy by making Nestle Non-fat milk a habit. Of course you can't rely on milk alone, try to live a healthy & active lifestyle!
