If there's something that I could tell about BUM, is that they have CHOICES. Recently, they launched the 2nd Academy Series Collection. You could say they've evolved a long way than just being street wear, because as you can see, it has become a good way to express one's personality. The recent one is varsity inspired, hence very preppy, but never the same. They remain different than the usual which is something a person who wants individuality to have in their wardrobe.
Some of the pieces also exude something urban, one which you can wear off the streets and now with colors, mixed with modern and vintage vibes. Imagine wearing these pieces while you're at school, with confidence, and still remain cool. You can also wear this off a usual stroll in the mall, if you are with friends because it's a good thing to be in good gear.
The buck doesn't stop there because there's more to see at BUM stores and boutiques nationwide. Go head on and build your wardrobe from scratch or use new pieces and mix it up with your current ones in the closet. It doesn't need to be expensive, so make sure you choose key pieces that will up your street fashion game today!

The Philippines, when you hear about our country and the cases of injustice, do you still believe in the system? Most of you probably have given up, thrown in the towel, flipped the table and wouldn't want to even look if you still have rights in this country of ours. Much of us believe that justice is only for the rich, those who could afford it and just suffer not having what is right. Heartbreaking no?
She started doing this January this year on Facebook, and got traction and love from viewers from across the country. When folks from Velvet Media, Inc., Ms. Michelle Perez, Directors Mar Peralta, Ronald Ryan Litao, Producer Jayjay Maghirang of Velvet and Atty. Heyz got into talks about doing the show, things really felt mutual which made mounting this program quite fast on pubic station PTV4.
Atty.Heyz says "The objective is to help people, there's a higher penetration in broadcast so I could reach more. The PTV4 show will be every Saturday mornings, and will be for all ages. There will be someone who can answer law questions, litigation, because that is what I do on a normal day. I also do corporate contracts, and I am effective in explaining things with the masses. This is one of the things I am doing for public service because I've done much in private practice. You can see that in the episodes we have, some simple, some complicated, which you can easily digest. If you could see our FB messages, it's a lot and I couldn't answer all of them sometimes, we need to help them all."
Actress, Host and Velvet Media Inc. Director of Marketing and Public Relations Ms. Bianca Lapus adds "The best thing about our team is when we have an idea, we share it and believe in it because of our core values. Regardless of our roles, we listen to each other. This is also our first time to venture into TV, it's easy to work with her because our brainstorming took a few minutes and now we are having our first program on Saturday. I hope we could feature more celebrities, like Claudine Barretto, Badjao Girl, so they get to know their rights, or even Vhong when the time is right. Atty. Heyz has that gift when she talks because even kids understand it. She can say things even better than layman's terms. She is really someone for the masses."
Here's our video coverage of the interview last Thursday.
Atty. Heyz definitely has the heart to fight social injustice, even if she's already successful in her private practice and law firm, she makes it a point to help those who need it. If you're someone who wants to understand the laws of the land, or need help to fight for your rights as a citizen of this country, go listen to the discussions and learn what you can do to protect yourself, your family and others. They will also be having guests like celebrities, influencers and personalities to also share their experience. They will also be guided by Atty. Heyz and explain in Tagalog what you need to know.
The show will premiere this Saturday at 10:30AM to 11:30AM. If you missed it, they are also on Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and on PTV4's social channels. This is produced by Velvet Media Inc.
The Tanduay Calendar Girl 2024 is a much coveted spot and title for empowered actresses, personalities, who had it made in the industry. They just announced who it is today at the Elements tent Centris in Quezon City. Previous calendar girls include Erich Gonzales, Heart Evangelista, Bela Padilla, Ivana Alawi, and Bea Alonzo. Entitled "DARE", this woman has gotten fame with her stint in different networks, shows, brands across the country, belonging to the gorgeous clan, she's no other than Julia Barretto. Dare means one who aims to be herself, to reach her dreams and to inspire.
Julia says "I hope that the team and my new Tanduay family are happy about what I've done, it's been a few months since we prepared for this launch. The shoot was easy because I am thankful that they did it in a very collaborative way. I trusted them and have my input, it was an easy thing because they involved me in the process. The fabric we are wearing today is from the shoot, it was a nice to see it all today. I've been given opportunities and there will be a lot of things to look forward to because my films will be coming out, plus a few surprises. Unfortunately I couldn't share much, but a film will come out early next year but we have already shot it this year. The pictorial had me in a very challenging rut because I had to exercise while finishing a project out of town. You don't have to be ready just now, you ALWAYS have to be ready all the time. If it's for roles, I don't think it's daring, I think it's just being confident in your body, in your flaws, it inspires me to be more confident with who I am. I've become a braver woman!"
Julia is just starting this phase, and she's glad to note that there will be several projects coming out next year that includes a movie, and perhaps more endorsements plus a series that can't be discussed yet. So if you love her, go support her projects when it comes out in 2024! Congratulations Julia, you've done quite well in this calendar, you look so classy!
Looks like there will be more reasons to watch DEAR SV, which is on its 3rd season and will now be broadcasted on GMA. Previously, it was on CNN Philippines where Sam Verzosa tried to target folks with inspiring stories, in hopes to showcase them, learn, help and possibly change their lives through sustainable businesses.
Sam Verzosa says "All of the things I received from God and the success I got in life, I'd be willing to share with others and lend a hand. The show is filled with tories of hope, if you have a wish for someone else, DEAR SV is going to be there. I lived a hard life, but this didn't stop me from working hard and get ourselves (and my family) out of poverty. Thank you so much for spending time with me today."
Volleybelle and actress Michelle Gumabao hosted the press conference, I remember her from Smart events.
He adds "It's a very humbling experience to have been able to be with them for a few days and see how they live their lives on a daily basis. From tricycle drivers, to a man with odd jobs in order to care of his son who has cerebral palsy, to a rider who now has his own bike because of the show, we were able to showcase their lives on Dear SV. My inspiration has always been my Dad, my late Father made me realize how we look at people , to see what they go through even at their condition. There are a lot of people who need our help, it changed my outlook, and I hope it goes the same for those who watch the show and do the same. I've already seen some of the people in Frontrow do their charity work, they learn from stories of ordinary people. "
Aside from employment and sports programs, Sam Verzosa has been spearheading several businesses, and recently won Philanthropist of the Year Award by American Association of the Philippines in 2020 and 2021. He (together with business partner RS Francisco) also got recognized as Humanitarians of the Year by People Asia Magazine.
He talked about making episodes of this show and said "During shoots, I am in my comfort zone because I'm just being myself, I eat what they eat and accompany them wherever they go. It's like an immersion, and I'm so happy to have been able to do this in the show."
Here's our event coverage on video, please enjoy!
DEAR SV will be in GMA every Saturdays at 11:30PM. It's not just for public service, but will tell stories of different individuals that will make you learn more about life, hope and perhaps inspire other people further. While it was already doing good during the CNN Philippines time, there will be a wider audience when it gets shown on GMA. The show has heart, and hopefully you'll feel that too. Make sure you spend time see it on weekends, and on GMA's YouTube if you miss episodes.
