In the Philippines, the Christmas spirit is strongly felt as early as September. You will hear a lot of Christmas songs, see a lot of holiday decorations and people are starting to shop for gifts as early as now!
Being the lazy and impatient shopper that I am, I find it really convenient that a lot of brands are now selling their products through the internet. Online shopping is one of the best contributions of cyberspace to humans who would rather choose, click and pay through their computers than go to the actual shop.
The Christmas countdown begins and I know that most of you are already preparing their list for holiday gift giving. In fact, some of you may even browsing through ideal gifts such as the stylish greek apparels.
While browsing through various websites, I stumbled upon a timeless and meaningful gift idea: name necklaces. These exquisite pieces allow you to create a heartfelt present by engraving a loved one’s name, ensuring a unique and cherished token of affection. Whether it’s for a family member, a close friend, or a significant other, a personalized name necklace is a thoughtful gesture that will undoubtedly bring joy during this festive time. Exploring other online platforms can also provide an opportunity to discover even more remarkable presents that will make this holiday season truly unforgettable.
Here are some of the items I like from the 2013 holiday gift guide of Zalora:
Maxi Dress for Christmas!
Summer is still felt here in Great Britain! It is fun to dress up comfortably. I used to wear a lot of jeans and leggings months ago, but I am slowly switching to dresses. Aside from the fact that they are easy to pack, some dresses suits any type of occasion. This beautiful maxi dress like these 2023 unique short prom dresses is passable for summer outdoor or even formal outfit! Accessories like a luxury watch can also help level up any outfit. If your watch has been damaged, consider having it repaired at a watch service shop. For an affordable yet stylish option, you might explore a replica tag heuer to complement your wardrobe effortlessly.
‘WHAT?! You have a big crush on a drag queen? That’s the weirdest statement I’ve ever heard in years!”
If a female friend of mine confessed her addiction on drag queens years ago, I’ll instantly give her a strange look. Do you have a serious problem in life that you don’t want me to know yet you can’t handle it? Tell me and I’ll listen. Let’s talk about boy bands instead.

But no. Actually, my love for drag queens started when I discovered LOGOTV’s Rupaul’s Drag Race. They’re currently airing the 5th season in the US of A and I’m proud to say that a lot of Filipino drag queens made it to the show. The fun part there is they look so pretty with the make-up and glamorous clothes, yet they look equally hot when out of drag. My Top Three favorite queens from all five seasons include Manila Luzon, Willam Belli and Ivy Winters.
Just like any other ordinary young kid, I am fond of reading comic strips whether that is found in a newspaper, magazine and specialized comics compilation books. It served as my dose of entertainment especially when we visit some of our relatives in the province. There was even a time wherein my father read the main parts of the broadsheet while I automatically get the entertainment part just to read the comic strips 😛
Wear Larry Alcala inspired clothes and win in Solo’s Online Model Search contest
Even in school, some of my classmates even cut these comic strips and paste it in a used notebook and it served as a part of our collection (those days!). We couldn’t afford to buy our very own Archie, Jughead or Betty & Veronica comic digests so we ended up making one through the old newspaper clipping. We also supported Filipino comic strips and one of the most distinctive one are the works of Larry Alcala.
Good news to Larry Alcala Fans! SOLO, one of the most promising fashion brands in the country today recently launched the Pinoy Cartoonist Memorabilia collection featuring the works of great Larry Alcala and its Online Model Search Contest, which was officially last August 22.
Five pretty ladies from different universities were chosen as Urban Time’s Newest Brand Ambassadors last March 25 at SM City North Edsa Annex.
The casting of votes for the Ambassadors of Urban Time started sometime in February and ended just last March 22. Among the judges of the competition were Fashion and Lifestyle blogger AJ Matela, Fashion stylist Rachelle So and the Marketing Manager of Urban Time, Limfred Yap.
So who are the lucky and deserving ladies?
Frederick Peralta – One of the biggest names in the Philippine Fashion Industry. He is one of the most favorite fashion designer by the sophisticated ones and the socialites.
To be honest, I am not really into fashion. I am not updated on the latest trends and stuff, but I saw a number of Frederick Peralta’s creations in magazines such as Metro, Preview etc.
I am lucky because I was given the chance to watch the Premiere of the Philippine Fashion Week featuring the works of Frederick Peralta – sexy and sophisticated ladies, dashing gentlemen and cute little kids ramped in the runway wearing FP’s creations. The event was helt at Function 4, SMX Convention Center, SM Mall of Asia.
