Bel-Air Village Will Do "Retrospective" Show on their 60th Year!

Everybody knows whay Bel-Air Village entails, aside from the rich and famous, the who's who in Manila, they've housed some of the most creative people in the fields of art, design, literature, interior design and a whole lot more. Aside from that, some of their noted residents include the Dean of Philippine Fashion "Mang Ben" Ben Farrales and the Founder and CEO of online retail giant Zalora Mr. Paolo Campos. They will be including a full pledged fashion show during Bel-Air's 60th (Diamond) Anniversary called "RETROSPECTIVE" at the Solar Street Park in Bel-Air 3. This coincides with the PASINAYA 2017 celebration which will run from May 26, 27 and 28, 2017.

The Pasinaya is a yearly celebration in their community which was started by Barangay Chairman Nene Lichauco. They want to have their Diamond Anniversary to be big and everyone from their village wanted to signify the strength of this precious gem, the shine that comes from the people who live here so they all got together for the most awaited fiesta in Makati. The homeowners, tenants, helpers and drivers all step into the community for camaraderie, to remember the village like no other. When it was conceptualized, they got the Captain Antonio O'Brien (husband of Paraluman) to suggest a name for the Barangay and the only catch was to have the word AIR on it since they had mostly pilots of Philippine Airlines in the village, hence the name Bel-Air. Now they have been holding huge shows and this fashion show won't dissappoint you as I have seen Ben Farrales' show in the past especially during Philippine Fashion Week. You'll definitely see Filipiniana, fabulous weaving from Mindanao communities and also a great lineup from Fashion Retail Giant Zalora.com.

Mr. Camus of the Bel-Air Board of Governors says "When the Pasinaya was a Flores De Mayo celebration in the 60's, it wasn't like this and they know you'll love to see how times have changed and how to successfuly maintain the relationships in this dynamic neighborhood, whether old or new residents, you'll always feel like you belong. This is a family centered community and they will continue to value this all throughout the years."

I wanna go to Bel-Air and visit my relatives here. Or maybe I could visit the Barangay Captain Nene Licauco's house since she offered LOL. Can't wait to see the show! They also say that the village will be open on these dates, just sign up with the guards on all gates. Come and see them perform too!

Cash Back, Coupons, Discounts at ShopBack

I've been on a shopping spree lately in Lazada, Zalora and EBAY because this is the transition into another season. This means, that most of the Fall Winter collection pieces that you've probably seen quite expensive in the past is probably on sale. I'm addicted to shoes, shirts and things that are not usually seen in malls. I'd rather do online shopping because it's very troublesome to go to these establishments since they're a little far from where I live. What's good is that these online merchants deliver everything to your doorstep so you don't have to pay for gas or spend a fortune buying food in restaurants because that's basically what you do inside these malls.

Zalora Presents Lunar New Year Collection

Hot, fiery and floral, this printed dress is part of the CNY collection for Zalora

I love how it feels to see a new collection, especially when you get first dibs on seeing it either on the racks, their atelier, or on the show. You get to stay ahead of the pack in seeing the latest trends or get to know the designer a little better. You also get to somehow judge if the secrecy he did for the collection is effective or not. It's hard to do that but since Zalora is in a giving mood, here's what they have solely have for the Chinese "Lunar New Year" and I'm loving the pieces they came out with.

Sold separately, they've got crisp white sleeveless tops, cold floral prints (probably a transition from Winter to Summer). It's got pink, red wine, grays, blue and purple. It's cold shades, a thing that would also be perfect for evening wear if you're out on a date or  just plainly with friends. 

Feminine cuts, dresses that are above the knee could also be best to show off those calves which men find totally sexy with 5 inch pumps depending on your mood.

Want something bright? This red, blue and white printed sort of floral dress would be nice on a walk during the day!

It would be so luxurious if you get this dress with bright prints. You'll play the adorable little girl, or woman that everyone would remember because you'll definitely catch attention. Pretty!

Asian influenced prints, used fabrics like jacquard, neoprene and lace, you'll be definitely starting the festivities in pretty dresses that would go with the Year of the Sheep!

Paulo Campos of ZALORA Philippines says “Our collection gives them the chance to celebrate heritage without looking dated and empowers them to style freely as each piece can match any modern fashion accessory.” Judging from these photos, it's evident that they've researched well, I can even say these dresses would even follow Feng Shui traditions with the colors, prints that all follow the ancient ways.

Lace and a little black dress? It's something hot and sultry that you can wear for an event or if you're just going out for the evening.

The thing is, it's also affordable. The price ranges from Php 1,000 to Php 2,000 only and available exlcusively in Zalora. This is the perfect time to get it before the actual day of festivities. Aside from the charms, crystals and lucky ornaments you're planning to get for that day, you better get the dresses before it gets sold out! Shopping online has never been easy!
