Hundreds of thousands of Filipinos join McDonald’s 4th National Breakfast Day

03.20.2016 by Leah //

March 14 was definitely McDonald’s best Monday ever! For the fourth year in a row, McDonald's National Breakfast Day delighted Filipinos across the country with free McMuffin sandwiches. With over 400 stores nationwide who took part in the event, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos enjoyed a free and delicious McMuffin to start to their day. From 6:00AM to 7:00AM, ... READ MORE

Beatles Fan Alert!

04.04.2015 by Leah //

Don't miss out on these limited edition Hallmark cards that feature the famous lyrics of Lennon-McCartney, the song-writing duo behind the biggest band in the world: The Beatles. I found them by chance at National Bookstore (SM Mall of Asia branch) 2 weeks ago while looking for a birthday card.  There are 6 designs available (at least at this National Bookstore branch), ...

A Royal Engagement Ring for Marian

08.17.2014 by Leah //

Everyone's still talking about Marian Rivera's engagement ring - a Harry Winston emerald-cut diamond ring, no less! I'd say Dingdong Dantes couldn't have chosen a better ring for his queen, who now shares the distinction of having the same engagement ring design as the late Grace Kelly, an American actress and once Princess of Monaco. Grace Kelly's ring was from ... READ MORE

A Worry Free Afternoon at Nestlé Acti-V Go Lounge

07.09.2013 by Leah //

What a stressful day I had today at the office, and it's only Tuesday! July is actually the busiest month at work because: It is the month where mid-year performance reports are due for submission to the management; July also signals the start of strategic planning preparations (read: whole day meetings, ack!); and, It is also the month where we start preparing our ...

John Lennon @ 72

10.09.2012 by Leah //

I've always found it cool to have had a lola (grandma) who shared her birth date with John Lennon, my favorite among the Beatles.   My mom would always kid me for forgetting to greet my lola on her birthday, and yet I never fail to forget that it's John Lennon's birthday hehe.   Weird, huh? I'm glad that I wasn't born in the 60's or I would end up stalking the Beatles too, ... READ MORE

Statement Floral Prints from Prabal Gurung

04.04.2012 by Leah //

Prabal Gurung's floral print collection is surely becoming a "must-have" in every celebrity fashionista's closet.   This particular collection looks really good not just on a day out but more so the red carpet and events,  which is a welcome change from the sequined dresses,  classic cuts and heavy fabrics that we normally see. Here are some of the celebrities who have ... READ MORE

My Oscars Best Dressed 2012

02.28.2012 by Leah //

Now that we know who won what at the Oscars (too bad The Help, my bet, didn't win Best Picture), we can look back at the red carpet scenes and vote for our best dressed stars. I only have 4 in my list who made the most impact at the red carpet (at least for me).   The others I think were very predictable already in their choice of attire (like J. Lo and we can already count ... READ MORE

RIP Whitney Houston

02.12.2012 by Leah //

A tragic fall for the once Queen of Pop with a golden voice and a good-looking bodyguard in Kevin Costner (referring to her commercially successful movie, "The Bodyguard", in 1992). Whitney Houston was found dead early today at her room in a Beverly Hills hotel.  The singer's publicist, Kristen Foster, confirmed the news.  The cause of death was still unknown. Excerpts from ...
