E-JEEP THE FORT

Blogged: E-jeep at the Fort



Sorry guys was so busy lately and I didn't get to blogg , becasue of so many works need to be done and the kids got sore eyes too and cough and colds.

Holiday is the best time to brin ghte kids around , no traffic less cars and yes more fresh air than we will ever think of during normal heavy traffic days. So I decided to bring the kids to the Fort and let them try the E-jeep. I've always wanted my kids to try everything and experience the fun, not only by riding cars but also riding MRT , Tricycle...I hope.. but I really can't im afraid that they will get some flu or something. So when we were driving around the Fort everytime we see this E-jeep , I would always tell myself that I'll bring my kids here and let them try the ride. for them to have the experience. So we drove all the way to The Fort then try the E-jeep.

We left the car where the post of the E-jeep ride parked, it was just across the Market Market Parking lot. E-jeep can go around the Fort and it can sit 8 passengers at the same time 2 in the front beside the driver then 4 secong row or 3 then 3 at the back. Oh wow my kids enjoyed the rounds! The best part for my kids? we went to Mc donalds for a drive thru , which yes they did serve us. It was a fun experience with my kids. i'd love to do that again with my kids on Holidays!


inside the E-jeep...it was drizzling, so i had them wore their jackets....



E-jeep is at The Fort

fee: accroding to them PhP5.00

experience was priceless!!! try it!!

NEW YORK BASED EMI JORGE 14 COLLECTION DEBUT

FILIPINO SPECIMENS

EMI JORGE’S EXOTIC LUXE ACCESSORIES

AT FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK


During my last visit in Citem exhibit, I saw this eye catching collection of Emi Jorge, it was quite a quick glance and a quick look , and I told myself this must be expensive! So i asked her staff then they told me the Conquistador is $2,500.00 but it really catches my eye. but when i read about her story and how the bags were made , it was worth paying a good collection to keep. The name of the bags corresponds on how it looks like , just like how other designers do. So by just looking at the design of the bag , you ca ust guess how they call it. just like the "HARANA" , also the apple of the eye, its not apple shaped , but it will really be the apple of your eye when you see it.


Emi Jorge is a New York base designer but Filipino at heart and all her works. I'm looking forward to see her collection to be seen in the red carpets.


Emi Jorge debuts her eponymous brand with a set of 14 exquisitely handcrafted minaudieres.

Richly embellished, her clutches embody the natural exoticism of wood, shell, and semi-precious

stone, set to fresh interpretations of modern luxury.

Apple of the Eye, a nod to the endemic Tarsier species of the Philippines, features a wood veneer,

its fine grain revealed in the natural finish. A multi-faceted black lip shell clasp framed in goldtone

brass sets off the earth-tone palette, while the laser-etched ultra suede lining reveals the bag’s

origins.

The azure sea and its rainbow-hued corals conjure 7th Wonder, a wood trimmed minaudiere with

inlaid shell. Metal-casted coral detail adds texture to the iridescent surface, a tropical wonderland

for seafaring creatures.

The gifts of earth, water, sky, and culture inspire the other pieces in the Emi Jorge collection,

from Conquistador to Ling Ling-O and Ani, from Viva Pit Senyor to Symphony No. 9, each epitomizing

the beauty of natural forms and patinas, and the current bold global sensibilities in fashion.


Emi Jorge takes us on a journey

Through the senses by recreating life as wearable modern art Emi Jorge takes us on a journey

Emi Jorge celebrates the natural forces of storytelling to fashion art out of stick,

stone, metal, and shell.through the senses by recreating life as wearable modern art.

Our weekend mall visit...

Blogged: Our weekend mall visit.

Last Sunday , I just told my hubby that I want to go to the mall and do some window shopping, you know just to keep me posted what's there in the stores , and also sale stuff.
So my first intention was to go back to Shangri-la and buy the red ointed rubber shoes from adidas which really struck me! But I told my hubby let's drop by rockwell first and have a walk... and so this is what happened..

Tried looking for these in rockwell but its not available. so i opted to really drop by Shangri-la before heading home. good deal this shoes was on a 10% discount that day.
When I went inside Zara, oh i found a open toe clogs! I love it! so much.

And a LBD which is on a 50% discount! its so nice elegant and so simple!! Such a good deal!
and a top from Zara.. so comfy to wear... it was a good sunday walk but didn't expect that ill be buying anything, only the adidas shoes! It was a good walk and a good buy!!

Manila FAME 2010!

Every year I see to it that i get to visit the Fame exhibit here in Manila. I'm just so proud to see wonderful creations of the Filipinos. I was so amazed seeing their works, and at the same time being bought by foreign buyers. You will just be proud how skilled Filipinos are.
We are not just entertainers but also an artist!

Fashion accessories being sold- over runs...
Another Talented Mia Arcenas Operation and Creative Director----- from Cebu. Cebuanos are really good in designing and crafts! I had a great chat with Mia and her mom.
Mia is a graduate student of LA-FIDM FASHION INSTITUTE OF DESIGN OF MERCHANDISING MAJOR APPAREL MANUFACTURING MANAGEMENT .
She is not only a designer but also a stunning model that she graced the cover of ZEE MAGAZINE for the month of September - October 2010
After graduating she helped out her mom with designing , and she shared the skills she have learned and also to add more identity to their products and to make the products more innovative but at the same time earth friendly products with a touch of filipino taste!
It was mentioned to me that some of her bags were ordered already by some designers and also foreign buyers.
the BOTTLE CAPS BAG....by PAPER CAPER INTERNATIONAL.
First glance , these bags will really catch your attention , its not the brand that we are looking at here , but who put it together and how they put together the bottle caps to become a bag , and also the people that this company helped as a source of their living.
The owner admitted that yes, foreign buyers didn't have the interest to order it this year since they just came out of this bag just this year , but they if these will be out in the market buyers will be ordering these bags and will become a hit. by: ARHTUR F. GADDI
Mich Dulce! visited her booth . i visit her booth to check out her PHP500.00 clothes but wow i ended up purchasing something else and more than 500.00 bucks. but i love what i got! so loveeeee.......
Alice blue candles - started offering its hand poured scented soy wax candles in May 2005 after extensive research and development. These candles are manufactured in the philippines from imported raw materials and are under strict quality standards.
What is soy wax?
soy wax is a vegetable oil that comes from the soybean palnt.
Why soy wax?
Ever conscious of the environment , the idea of making a candle with soy wax was appealing because soy is a renewable resource and is biodegradable.

Billionaires are getting younger.....23 years old.


Billionaires are getting younger...a self made billionaire. It's just everyones dream to be like a self made man and a woman. Just like a week ago or two i read an article about Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook.

Billionaires are getting younger. Forbes magazine released its list of the world's mega-rich Wednesday and said Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, 23, became the youngest ever self-made billionaire.

Zuckerberg, born during the Ronald Reagan presidency, is worth $1.5 billion four years after launching the social-networking site and the third-youngest to crack the billionaire list since Forbesbegan tracking ages a decade ago. The other two inherited their money. Facebook did not respond to requests for comment.


When i went to California last year , one of my agenda is to visit Facebook Office in California, and heard so many wonderful stories about the employees of facebook google yahoo etc. oh wow! I just can't stop dreaming to work in this prestige company! The employees from the one who mops the floor get good compensations!! whew! when you hear their companies stories. all you will say is...so wonderful! that the reason why facebook google is one of the top companies it students wants to apply.
Facebook started with not really earning until they grew! Its just gives us a thought that small things and grew big!

with my sister "tiff" pictures are not enough when you go around facebook...its just an ordinary building not so big...but the worth of the company says it all...
My dear friend drove us there... i wanna go back and visit Facebook again..
Can't wait to watch this movie! These are the type of movies i want to watch.
