Freeway x Master Composer, Conductor and Teacher Lucio San Pedro

It was another exciting evening. Another glorious time to gather at The Row in Glorietta because one of the most trusted brands in the country "FREEWAY" is launching another collection to pay homage to a National Artist Senor Lucio San Pedro. 

The genius composer behind the famous "Ugoy ng Duyan" and many other Filipino classics. You'll be shocked and awed by his credentials since he also took advanced classes in the Netherlands, Gianini and the world famous Juilliard. His passion was always at home and with the things he did for Angono and their choirs, music groups and individuals was unsurpassed because he felt his hometown should be the first ones to play his creations. A noble gesture above anything else.

The event was hosted by one of my favorite singers, Rachel Alejandro. She also sang a few songs since she did few stints in Aawitan Kita a few years back. Remember that? :)

There was also a choir from his hometown who also sang some tunes that mesmerized everyone who passed by the event. It was truly nostalgic.Lucio San Pedro wanted these guys and those from his place to sing his masterpieces. He made extra effort to actually do that.

Senor Lucio San Pedro's relatives were also there, telling us a story or two about who he was as a person. They also had some anecdotes about how he wanted his music to affect the Filipino people, and his hometown too.

Freeway also introduced the winners of their design contest and I was really impressed by their entries. 

It was really something world class! Now you have the chance to get this on their stores because it's on sale this school season. A LOT of students were already buying this so make sure you get one for yourself. It's highly recommended!

I saw the pieces that they have for the Lucio San Pedro collection. Take a look at this!

I am really impressed by their intricate designs. Their interpretation of his work into these pieces was something that could level artists too. I bet they made sure it represented him well and truly, it did. For those who want these clothes and accessories, they are all available in Freeway boutiques and The Row establishments nationwide! Make sure you grab one while it's hot!

Small Things at Work Are Worth It

Presentations in the office are but a regular thing, I just finished one this evening. There will be more and I'm currently making one as we speak. This is usually made for training sessions, lectures and information dissemination. Presenting in a more professional way if we utilize tools like this. However, we need certain tools in order to show it to an even larger audience. You need to carry around a Projector Case, screen and the projector itself too on most occasions. It's a whole package and one could never do without the other. Naturally if you don't get to protect your things, it'll deteriorate over time and you wouldn't be able to utilize the whole worth of these expensive equipment to the dismay of your company's head honcho.  

Protecting your investment and making sure that everything is used efficiently would make up a better business environment. Little things to protect your equipment are vital in making sure you are not wasting your time, effort and your client's too. Your capability to present to prospective business clients is something that you should always strive for. Without that gusto and unending fervor, you won't be able to realize your dreams. It starts from the small things believe me. It's even practiced by large corporations and it has made an impact to their businesses. Making this gesture and showing your peers how it could change their perspective of work can be something that can influence them to have a culture of care. It'll save money in a more granular way. Wouldn't that be a good thing to practice in your business? I'm sure you'll find this useful, because I did.

JAG ORIGINS: Inside the creative mind of Nina Garcia!

It's that time of the year where thousands of models, designers, make up artists and brands converge for the much awaited Philippine Fashion Week celebration at the SMX Convention Center and we're pretty glad to have been invited to cover; this time for popular jeans brand JAG and their show JAG ORIGINS. It's a total breather from the normal walk-shoot-bow and next show thing we've been doing in the past because they are bringing something new to the catwalk. Actually, this is more of a learning experience for all fashionistas, enthusiasts and practitioners as they have invited one of the most influential ladies in the world of fashion. A mere utter of her name made me say OMG a couple of times and mind you I am not alone. Jag Origins presents the one and only Fashion Director at Elle and Marie Claire, and judge of popular reality TV show Project Runway... Ladies and gentlemen.. Nina Garcia!

We were so lucky enough to have been able to secure seats around 6 people away from Nina Garcia herself but of course she was hounded by everyone else. She had that aura of kindness, generosity and pretty much said yes to everyone who wanted to experience being with her. It's her first time in the country and nobody had a clue what she'll be doing in this show. This is consequently Jag Origin's first outing and to start it off in a good note, we had a fashion show ensue at the start of the event.

Greeting everyone was the beautiful Sarah Meier. She also introduced dignitaries and special people in the audience. This is the start of JAG ORIGINS.

They surprised everyone with the gorgeous Binibining Pilipinas beauty queens. See if you can identify some of them. =)

These ladies were clad in faux leather, jeans that are skinny in all the right places. It hugs on the female form and presents a more tight way of showing the assets. I loved it on these women!
