CK Eyewear for only 2500

Yup, wearing it already. =)

Got my new CK eyewear for only 2500, from the RIMA Sale, . Bought it last two weeks ago, with friends, who were able to hoard eyewears! They got Prada, Rayban, Bulgari, each costing around 3T plus, some from 17T. Not bad... =)

They will still be holding the last leg of their sale from Tomorrow, 16, 17,18. You still have these 3 days to grab your eyewear.

Havaianas 2011 Collection

Got invited for Havaianas 2011 Collection Private Pre-selling event last Saturday, November 20, 2010, at Whitespace, Pasong Tamo.






We arrived at around 9am and there were already individuals waiting in Red Chairs(which I want, RED!) waiting for their turn to preview the collection and wear one before the world does!

While waiting, they served drinks and offered magazines (got Preview with Kim Chiu in the cover).

After staying in the waiting area for a few minutes(peeping a couple of times when the doors open), we then entered the selling area, and WHOAA! There were a lot of Havaianaticos inside!

There were about four kiosks of Havaianas with mounds of slippers. The kiosk that welcomed us, were of bright summery colors (Purple, Pink, Neon Yellow).

Some are new (like these slims)

Some we've seen already (Metallic Tops and Brazil Tops)

And these I LIKE! but they were to neony for my skin!

I got the Yellow Cartoony one on the right side. This belongs to the 2011 collection. 3 variants.

What caught my attention were the Christmas Lights!!! Havaianas, give me one! =) They were like lighted Havs Keychains.

After spending some time deciding on what to get, I ended up with 5 pairs! At the event, they don't just have the slippers in boxes, but in fancy Slipper Bags. -- NICE! which I'll really use! GO GREEN!

Btw, the organizers did a fantabulous job of ensuring the guest are comfortable... when the lines were getting longer, they brought in chairs for us to sit on. FANCY~!

After paying, we were served with FOODIE! c/o Bizu. Corn Dogs, Tacos, Nachos, Sandwiches, free flowing drinks. =)

And there was a section of what we all love! A PHOTO WALL! Me with my friend, Marie.

A friend of mine got married a few months ago, and I made her this bag. Now, another friend is going to get married this September, and I'll make her bag as well... Inspiration, Inspiration...

• What I got? Pearl beads, Textile, Lace (I had to cut them to fit the panels), Silk Ribbon.
• How much time it took me to make one: Probably a whole day from pattern making to threading.

For the next project, she wants a beige, beaded, feathered, layered bag. Inspired by her gown.

Love their style-aka Details! Don't want to be stuck in 'unifomy' wool pants, I wanna be different--at least with the rest of people who bought the same pants =) I fancy the small details in these pairs.

The Grey one, I had to scour about 3 branches to find a Size! From Robinson's Galleria, Megamall, and G5-Greenbelt. It's all worth it!

Grey - P6xx Brown - P350

The brown pair has subtle piping on the side-Military like.

Corporate Giveaways Expo| Last Day on July 9, 2010

Got an invite on my mailbox about this event and it's a good thing since I was worrying of the next Corporate Giveways for the office.

Visit their Website: http://www.worldexco.com/corporate-giveaways.html

EXHIBIT HOURS

• July 7: 10:00am-11:00am (by invitation) - 11:00am- 7:00pm (Open to Public)
• July 8 - 9: 10:00am - 7:00pm

Admission is FREE

Visitors below 7 years old will not be admitted

Just dropped by today, to look for new giveaways for our corporate events, since they've already gone through the usual tumblers, jackets, notebooks and all the regular works.

Some booths do not allow pictures to be taken of their merchandise, so ask permission first, if you want to have one as a reference and you're not contented of the brochures they hand out.

• By the way, bring a bag/envelope to hold the brochures. Luckily, some of the Booths give out Eco Bags as freebies, 'coz I was literally holding onto the papers like my fingers are paper clips.


• Bring your Calling Card, some booths have premiums like Rudy Project (who gave me a Calling Card holder), Team Manila (who gave me a wristlet-which I love =) :

Team Manila Wristlet

Here are some of the items I like.

Moleskin - Like Notebooks that go for P100 to P200

Engraved Pens from P84 and higher (they had Cross and Parker)

This pen with the magnetic base, which is fancy, goes for only P100.


And some plaques for awardees.

I'll be making a list of the vendors I've gone through and their contact details, leave your email address, and I'll gladly have it fowarded to you.

Gap is on Sale

On Sale from June 30 to August 15, 2010.

SM Megamall.

Watch Box?

I've been wanting a case for my watches. Some went from P800 and up. [SM Dept store]

One fine day in Megamall, I dropped by Papemelroti and saw a box with clear covers and removable compartments, and voila, my watch box! They come in 9 or 12 compartment designs.
The 12-compartment cost P309 only.

The 9-compartment one can fit even the Watch boxes. =) But I opted to get the 12, since I also have other trinkets like Bow Ties, Bracelets.

Visit their site for other Organizing needs. =) Btw, they also do customizations, hmmm....

I love their store, 'coz it's always homeeeeey... Love the staffs too, specially in Megamall, since they even offered calling the nearest branch from my house to check if they have the box in other prints, and they had it reserved for me for pickup =)
