The Color of Summer.

Whenever summer hits, the color that first comes to my mind is turquoise. Not sure why but I think it's got something to do with my mom always wearing white linen and her turquoise jewelry during the hot summer days. I love the look. The color stands out and I think it goes with every skin color which makes it an easy material to work with when it comes to jewellery. I have spotted a few celebrities wearing this color and I have to tell you, turquoise is officially my new favorite color (sorry RED....don't worry, it will always go back to you).









Love love love these Pucci shoes!!


Here's Jul B. Dizon Jewellery's take on the Color of the Month.

Working with EDSA Shangri-la Hotel has never been so easy and pleasant. The marketing staff headed by Ms. Tess Tirona has been so wonderfully accommodating and helpful in my recent projects that I am beginning to feel spoiled by this hotel. Last night's event wouldn't have turned out successful without the staff of banquet department who worked from the early hours of the morning till the last chair has been placed back to its original spot in the e's bar.







As you all know, my favorite stylist and friend Junjun Ablaza worked on creating the theme for the launch of Kris Aquino Collection. I had informed him that Kris wanted to use pink stones and from there on, he did his magic and transformed the all black bar into a pink and black wonderland! He also placed real life pink cockatiels inside the bird cages.






The food was truly delicious. Everyone came up to me and told me so. I am so happy that not only was there bejewelled eyecandy for my guests, there was also spread that truly made you come back for more..and more...and more. I just have to tell you that there was a Japanese station which served fresh sushi, sashimi and tonkatsu. In the Italian station, the chef will make you a plate of delicious pasta with 3 kinds of sauces to choose from. The Chinese corner, my ultimate favorite, they served huge Prawn siomai, hakao and siopao. The last but definitely not the least, the dessert station had oodles and gaboodles of fresh fruits for the strawberry fountain (had to be pink), cakes and assorted pastries.




And for my favorite part, my friends that came to show support. SALAMAT!!!
