With THE Bertram K They say a woman’s crown is her hair. You can tell a lot about a person just by simply looking at how they wear their hair. Personally, I am always on my toes finding out ways on how to care for my hair and new ways to style it and one brand I completely trust in terms of products is L’Oreal. So I was more than excited when I was told I get to be a L’Oreal Pro Insider at the Bertram K show! Bertram K is a Viennese hairdresser to the stars such as Kate Moss, and Alec Wek. Based in Europe, he has been in the industry for several years now doing fashion shows and working with various media. Let the show begin!

Heaven scent! Do you ever get the overwhelming feeling when walking into the Beauty Section of a department store? I get that all the time, especially when everyone is suggesting you try EVERY scent so I was so excited when I heard about the SM Beauty Fragrance Festival! An intimate event to get to know the scents and sniff away! 🙂 with Beauty Blogger Shari of The Misty Mom Held in SM Aura, the SM Beauty Fragrance Festival had fun several pop up booths of fragrance brands available in the SM Beauty Section at the Main Atrium. It gave awareness because personally, I did not know they carried AMAZING brands which I thought weren’t locally available. SM Fragrance Festival The SM Beauty Store, heeding to the industry-standard fragrance wheel, had sections solely devoted to each fragrance family. I had so much fun going around and learning about different fragrance families! Let me show you my favorites. Versace Bright Crystal Absolu If you are a feminine floral type of person, you’ll definitely like this one from Versace. Just by looking at the crystal packaging, you can already smell what you’re in for. Tessa Prieto-Valdes stayed a little bit longer checking this perfume…

My Burberry They say perfume is the strongest form of memory. Imagine a fragrance that captures the scent of a London garden after the rain? That’s exactly how My Burberry smells like. Referencing the Burberry trench coat colour palette, the My Burberry juice is reminiscent of the signature honey shade, one of the three colours used in the brand’s Heritage Trench Coat collection. Yuki Tansengco It’s now here in Manila! The new My Burberry fragrance launched globally with a campaign featuring British global fashion icons Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne, shot together for the first time. The fragrance – My Burberry – takes its name from the affectionate way in which people refer to their Burberry trench coat. My Burberry now in Manila! The My Burberry campaign launched globally in September 2014 and October 2014 for the Philippines – for the first time in SM Aura! The Bottle I love the design! The glass bottle and overall design reflect the details of the Burberry trench coat: a bold horn-finish cap echoes its distinctive buttons and the hand-tied knot is English-woven gabardine, honouring the fabric invented by Thomas Burberry over 100 years ago. The gold lined interior is embossed with the iconic Burberry check design. My Burberry Campaign For the first…

Yuki Tansengco To be honest, I sometimes get confused with the term “smart casual.” For some odd reason, it doesn’t translate the same way everytime I see it on the invite so does that mean we should play by ear? Monday Blues In my workspace, we are allowed to wear “smart casual” and whatever makes us feel comfortable at work – staying within the “corporate attire” guidelines. Always sticking to blues and blacks. Dress Code 101 So really, what is the difference between casual and smart casual? There’s even “business casual” 😀 Parisian suede blue flats For this outfit, it looks sort of casual with the high waisted pants but rows back to smart casual because of the colors and the button down. Although some workplaces strictly require heels, it’s also good to pack both heels and flats when you’re at work. Hair by Jing Monis When it comes to the hair, casual would be down and undone while smart casual would be a sleek ponytail or set curls. Thank you to Jing Monis for my hair! I think I need to re-color it! Ferragamo 2-way sling For the bag, casual would be colorful bags in various sizes and smart…

Kris Abrigo for Nixon Marking the return of warmer weather and sunshine, we welcome in spring 2014 with the latest Nixon for Kate Spade Saturday collab. Nixon x Kate Spade Saturday To celebrate the launch of this genius collaboration, I got the chance chance to witness a live mural painting at the Nixon store, SM Aura! Nixon, SM Aura Coincidentally, the Nixon store in SM Aura is the only branch that carries apparel. How cool is that? Head over to Nixon in SM Aura and see their latest collection. About Nixon When you choose to wear a watch, put on your headphones, or select a wallet to hold your hard earned cash, you deserve to have something that reflects your entire package. You may not know how to say it, but you’ve got something to say and you can’t slap on an off-the-shelf piece and consider yourself you. That’s why in ’98, Nixon entered the market and after all these years, they’re still here! 🙂 Art Mash A live mural painting was going on during the afternoon with one of Manila’s most creative artists Soleil Ignacio and Kris Abrigo. Soleil Ignacio x Kris Abrigo In the store, this creative duo curated a…
