PaGMAmahalan Blogcon: Kylie Padilla and Julian Trono for Buena Famila

Seeing Kylie Padilla and Julian Trono is but a good thing. Kylie for the most is one of the most straighforward actresses I know when it comes to answering questions. She doesn't mind intrigues, showing a spade a spade especially when it comes to talking about her being an actress and what she has accomplished so far. I've long adored her beauty, and I feel her work has been sometimes left unnoticed. She's a pretty good actor and she's already proven that in several movies and programs on GMA. She's also been nominated in awards shows recently; and continues to do her utmost best to anything that's thrown to her. She was also asked if she had some frustrations, she answered bluntly and said it's to actually be as great or even better than her father. It's a tall order of course, but she is optimistic that nothing is impossible with hard work as she's been always doing that all these years. Since Buena Familia is extended, she's hoping that everything in the story would turn out happy.

Julian Trono is hands down one of the best dancers this country. His KPOP training is evidently seen in each performance whether he's in a mall show, just outside or even the PaGMAmahal Blogcon where we interviewed them that afternoon. I specifically like his upbeat songs (oh yes you can still get his album), his knack for music (you can't dance without hearing the beat), his eye and hand coordination (hence it looks effortless when he does his thing) and he is super humble (I have never even seen him do otheriwse). He plans to resume training pretty soon, but since he's extremely busy with commitments locally he might be still holding that off - otherwise he won't have any sleep. In Buena Familia, he laments he's always on "beast mode" as he's always protecting everyone in the family; and his only hope is that his character would in some way have a love interest... which also puzzled us because everyone else had one. I'm sure there will be more room for that to happen because the additional weeks that they were extended to just got extended again with two more weeks. Like Kylie, he too would want something good to happen since they've suffered much in the story.

Here's part of the conversation we had with Kylie and Julian:

Buena Familia starts right after top rating show Half Sisters in GMA's Afternoon Prime timeslot. Make sure you stay glued to the TV and see what nice things they have in store for you. I'm sure it'll be good!

Dingdong Dantes, Celebrities for #NowPH

When I first interviewed Dingdong Dantes, I didn't see how much he looked like even if I was about 3-4 feet away. With the lights they used during the PaGMAmahalan Blogcon yesterday, you could see why women fall in love with him with his light brown eyes and complexion that would shame even some women I know. He was sexier though because when he talked, he was really talking with passion. I wasn't really understanding what he was trying to imply at first but once we sat down for the details, I immediately understood what he wanted to happen with #nowph. He is calling for One Million Filipino Youth Voices for Climate Action. 

You see, we've been struck by countless storms, typhoons that we've usually been able to be resilient with. Although these past few years, don't you just notice they've become really dangerous and stronger all of a sudden? From the likes of Ondoy, Haiyan, when we couldn't even fathom why it could suddenly destroy cities, kill people and wipe out generations, it's because of Climate Change. Dingdong Dantes, together with other celebrities, Renee Karunungan of Dakila, Ben Muni of Green Peace Philippines stand together with this campaign called #NowPH initially to get 1 Million signatures and support so they could use it as material when they submit their stand in COP 21. It's the 2015 Paris Climate Conference where world leaders, climate experts converge together to form policies and stands in UN negotiations. It's a tall order but the Philippines in particular is going for 15 simple things so they could easily help in achieving this goal. This is the campaign also of the Climate Change Commission and National Youth Commission which Dingdong heads. This will be our position in international dialogues and they're advancing this cause.

BAYO's "Style Harvest : A Holiday Heritage" Collection Launch

Bayo Clothing Executives and Iza Calzado

I've always revered BAYO as a classy and sophisticated women's clothing brand here in the Philippines. They've done so much in the past couple of years and good ones at that, but they're stretching their hands once again for a new one called Style Harvest 2015: A Holiday Heritage Collection. They worked with the Tourism Office of San Fernando Pampanga and connected with artisans in that city to create the same lovely line of clothes with graphics inspired and adorned with the one and only Parol. If you've adored the Pampanga parols all throughout your Filipino life, you know it's part of culture and it has been passed on from generation to generation. Mixing fashion and the colorful stars that represent the star of Bethlehem was just something great and we saw that happen yesterday at the launch!

What's heartwarming to know is that they're giving some of the proceeds to Virlanie Foundation that takes care of the education of street children. The little black dress hugged by huge colorful parol designs also looked quite nice, and doesn't look cheap. It stays classy just like any other BAYO outfit from their stores. A welcome sight also was Ms. Iza Calzado who embodies a great Filipina woman, with her work, her awards, her personal wins, she's but a good representation of what Bayo deems as a Style Harvest icon. Perhaps this is a series? I can't wait to see more of it soon!

Style Harvest: A Holiday HeritageBAYO proudly presents its Hoilday 2015 Campaign, Style Harvest: A Holiday Heritage. ✨Style Harvest: A Holiday Heritage showcases the Filipino Christmas tradition by incorporating the designs with the beautiful colors and festive aesthetic of the parol, considered the symbol of the Filipino Christmas spirit.To promote Filipino creativity and to help communities and organizations by sponsoring projects that cultivate Filipino talent and ingenuity, Bayo partners with the artisans of San Fernando, Pampanga for the parols and with the Virlanie Foundation which gives a helping hand to the street children. ✨For this campaign, BAYO also proudly presents its newest brand ambassador, Iza Calzado!Watch our feature video with her on our Holiday collection below! :)For more updates, follow:FACEBOOKBayo: www.facebook.com/bayoclothingINSTAGRAM@bayoclothingTWITTER@bayoclothing
