Read MoreBlue Water Day Spa opens at Capitol Hills
Going to the spa is one of my favorite ME times. Attending the launch of the latest Bluewater Day Spa in Capitol Hills excited me because this branch is closest to home and school of my children.

Read MoreTamera Online
Last Saturday, I attended the launch of Tamera Online, the first online makeup store in the Philippines.

This year, you can forget about the usual flowers, boxes of chocolate, and jewelry.

I’ve always loved local designer Kate Torralba’s unusual style, but I’m too cheap (and my salary can’t afford) to buy anything designer. But it looks like now’s my chance, because the flagship Kate Torralba Store at Greenbelt 5 is holding an anniversary sale from February 1 to February 10! Up to 70% off on their older items and 10% on the 2009 collection! Some...
