The 2013 Elan Awards: Search for the Modern Filipino Gentleman!

McJim has got to be one of the most identifiable brands of Men's accessories in the Philippines and I must say, I've been a fan of some of their leather goods ever since. They have taken pride in their work for years now. It makes the whole outfit, it completes the look. It's classy pieces have all been part of Pinoy's wardrobe and why not, everyone knows McJim works for the Filipino man!

Well, just a few days ago they have launched the McJim ELAN Awards 2013. Elan means distinctive and stylish elegance in French; and with that, they will have several celebrities plus a public poll to determine who will win as the best role model for style and elegance. I saw the roster and names of those who are nominated, I must say they have done their homework.

The finalists are

Sonny Angara
Christian Bautista
Dingdong Dantes
Erwan Heussaff
Xian Lim
Coco Martin
Piolo Pascual
Richard Poon
Derek Ramsay
Jericho Rosales
Chris Tiu
Phil Younghusband

Seeing that alone must have already made your brains working. Why would they do this? What would it mean to win this contest for them? Well, for starters they will get the chance to win a designer trophy, then a 100,000 pesos for themselves and also another 100,000 pesos for their chosen charity. They will also get a year supply of Mc Jim Classic Leather products while those who wouldn't win the grand prize will get 6 Months worth of the same. If they win, they get to help their charity... that's enough reason to become the grand winner right?

With the help of you, their fans... they can make this a reality. Part of the criteria for them to win is your votes. Just head on to the Mc Jim Classic Leather Facebook Page and look for the Mc JIM Elan Awards app as seen below. Click on it and vote for your favorite celebrity. It's as easy as that!

It would be interesting to see who's going  to lead the poll. I'm sure their fans would be doing their part to get their idols win that prize for their charities. No endorsements, just the urge to help. It's a good thing Mc JIM is doing this!

Popular DJ Sam YG and Model cum celeb Victor Basa was there that afternoon and they are going to be part of the judging panel who's going to decide who among these individuals is going to be the winner for The 2013 Elan Awards: Search for the Modern Filipino Gentleman. But really, the bigger part of this would be in the hands of the public. Make sure your vote gets counted okay?
