IPANEMA the world-renowned Brazilian flip-flop brand, took style animals to an unforgettable experience out in the wild when it transformed the Bonifacio High Street into a mystical Urban Jungle last Tuesday May 8, 2012.

I can say that, so far, that this is the best Fashion Show I have ever attended.  The models don’t just walk on the ramp to showcase Ipanema’s flip flops but they display them by dancing in style.  The night is full of fun and true enchantment.

Various mystical animals which included the zebra which dons it’s uniqueness in every possible way, the playful and graceful dolphin; the sleek and agile “Jacob” of the land: the wolf, the king of the jungle, lion with its powerful and intimidating stance. The vibrant and sophisticated peacock; the soaring eagle with its potent sexual energy; the meek and mild gazelle; the sexy and imperial snake; the eye-catching ostrich; and the funny and quirky caterpillar.

I saw a lot of popular personalities and celebrities like Enchong Dee, Phoemela Baranda, Ornussa Cadness, Mia Ayesa, Peter Norrdell, among others who graced the event.

The Urban Jungle Fashion Show was IPANEMA’s way of celebrating unique individuals who take on everyday determined to conquer the world and stand out. It’s a toast to go-getters who own their unique style and never compromise on getting what they truly desire.

If  you want to have your own Ipanema Flip Flops, visit Bambu Store, Bonifacio High Street (B-3) from May 8-June 9 and get a cuddly animals for FREE.

Once again, thanks Ipanema for the invite.  And thank you for my new flip flops, I love it!!

The PLDT Telpad TelMeHow was launched at Prive at the Fort last May 3, and we had the chance to try it out. We were given a question and then we had to look for the answer on the TelMeHow app.  The prize of the winner was a Mac Book Air, so we took it seriously LOL!

The highlight of the event is when we were grouped and then the ladies in the group needed to walk the runway and model the accessories from the mannequin assigned to each of the groups. I wanted to just walk out and run because I am afraid to walk the runway but since everybody was cool and game, I had no right to back out.

Have you ever tried to google search your name? My cousin had a few of her teen friends over last weekend. As I came to offer them some snacks and refreshments, I found them hunched over the desktop giggling over something they found on the net. It turns out that they were googling their names and those of their other friends as well. It makes you realize how one’s reputation can be established with the use of the web.

Come to think of it, a lot of us do our transactions over the web already. We socialize, do our business and even study in the web. This means that there is a lot of data about ourselves that may be found in the cyberworld.

I actually tried googling myself, without the giggles of course, and found several pages of information related to me posted on the web. The information was mostly about social networking sites, blog sites and blog posts that I made. You can also find pictures and data of your namesakes who have presence in the web.

This is a cool tool that you can use to find people whom you lost touch with, and a way for you to create a reputation for yourself in the web. Just be careful that you don’t share too much information or you might be victims of identity theft. On the other hand you can also use this tool to check if there are people blatantly using your personal information without your consent.

I’ve been missing in action here for almost 2 weeks now.  There are lots of things going on in my life and I will try to update this blog as soon as I can.

If you are missing me, please check out my parenting blog because I have more posts there

1. Check out where my family had our summer one-day-get-away and why prevention is better than cure.

2.  Bring your family to Run United 2, we will be there and I am encouraging you to have an active lifestyle to be fit and healthy.

3.  I met Ms. Dyan Castillejo and her son’s Matthew at the Easy Phamax Wheatgrass event.  I learned a lot about what are the right foods to take and how can we help our kids to be a health buff just like Matthew and his mom.

4.  I went to Mommy Mundo’s Expo Mom 2012 and I saw a lot of new items that are useful for moms and kids.  I even bought a Tiny Buds rice powder that is organic and more safe to use on kids.

5. I am an advocate of green living, so I am glad I was  one of the few bloggers who got an invite to visit Las Pinas and the Villar Foundation.  I was surprised to see a lot of livelihood projects that doesn’t only helps their people earn a living but it also helps the environment as well.  I salute Mrs. Cynthia Villar for a job well done, and I hope she can encourage other municipalities to do the same thing too.

This weekend, I will post about the PLDT TelePad and how it can help us in our daily lives. Also, watch out for my post about the best fashion show I have ever attended – the iPanema Urban Jungle Show.
