Drafting the idea of showcasing the Metro’s distingué and top-drawers of fashion, I immediately wrote Andre’s name in big, bold letters accompanied with a doodle of a stick figure (my drawing skills can be likened a toddler’s expertise in art) in Mohawks and combat boots.

The presence of global brands in our fashion industry unquestionably poses a challenge to our striving local brands. However, I do not see this as any form of hitch or detriment to products produced domestically. Rather, it ought to be considered as a needed kick and push. It sets the stage, the globalization of trends, I believe, is a way of squeezing positive competitiveness. Leading to augmented quality, innovative strategies and a more strategic branding.

This will come as a surprise to my friends as I’ve always been enmeshed with everything cheesy, mushy and anything shamelessly schmaltzy (read: newlyweds). I am not a fan of Valentine’s Day. The day when every (okay, most) of the girls’ self worth is intertwined with the flowers and chocolates they are getting. And yes, they carry it all day, darlings. The girl with the biggest bouquet walk the tallest, as if she just earned her college degree, aided a dog in giving birth to her puppies or learned how …

Quaint and plush – my first impressions of Bellini Champagne Lounge.
For our mini Christmas get-together our friend Lakam suggested an after-dinner wine and cheese at Bellini. Though not a wine habitué, I looked forward to the company and the cheese platter – which I loved!
Bellini is a fairly new al fresco lounge in Cebu which offers an astonishing view of the city. The interior is like a potpourri of European and Tropical charm, adorned with lush Dedon furniture. The lighting adds up to the beauteous ambiance.
Bellini’s champagne menu …

My first time in Cebu was back in 2002 with my family, we flew in time for the yearly Sinulog festival.
