X Marks The Spot: Manila X Festival Puts Fashion and Music on Equal Billing

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Paolo Valenciano directs Manila X Festival, where style meets music and since this is the first run, the organizers are hoping the offspring would be lots of satisfied attendees all excited to join the next run.

Will this be a very challenging project for Paolo who said he is "someone who's not very fashionable" during the media launch held on May 19, 2016 at Cafe Naya at the Palace in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig city.

Stylist John Lozano leads this merging of fashion and music which basically puts together people who share the both interest. Basically, Manila X Festival is an opportunity to showcase what most of us love - the finer things in life highlighted by enjoying great music while appreciating the wonderful styles conceptualized by our creative stylists!

The media launch was also attended by some of the Manila X Festival featured artists and stylists who all entertained the inquiries of the media and bloggers. Some performed for us to provide entertainment before the panel discussion. I have some portions of the media launch on video so be sure to check out our official Youube channel at http://www.YouTube.com/user/wazzuppilipinas soon.

All events that become successful are those that were well-planned and critically thought of. The nitty gritty details all sum up to a glamorous experience if all aspects of an event were carefully selected among the best or most worthy choices. Thus, even the venue where the event is to be held needs to be equally top caliber. The venue is one of the most important considerations when planning for your next event so that it will be truly perfect.

Thus many of us are highly particular of where we hold our events. There may be several choices, but not all could be well appropriate for our needs. Choosing the right venue is a very important decision for us who value the success of our events.

SMX recently hosted its first Culinaire event for the year and shined the spotlight on 11 of its top accredited caterers who featured the best of their menu selections. The festive event happened on May 19, 2016 at the Function Room 5 of the SMX Convention Center at the Mall of Asia (MOA) Complex in Pasay city.

When they say the best, they really meant it. We do not often get the chance to dine with so many choices and peril at the thought we won't be able to try everything they served beautifully presented all around the venue. It was a fabulous feast night to remember and we wished that we had a bigger belly to put all of those gastronomically delightful dishes in.

Congratulations to the winners of Miss Global Philippines 2016 cultural costume competition.

#14 April Soliven - Province of Ilocos Sur
#21 Janelle Olafson - Mandaluyong
#4 Danica Ebrada - San Juan Batangas

These lovely ladies stood out among the other candidates not only because their Filipiniana outfits were creatively stunning, it is also because they wore their cultural costumes well.

We all know that even though our clothes can help attract attention, it is also important how we carry our clothing to be equally appropriate to the time and occasion where we need to wear it. Thus, many can wear the simplest style of clothes but could look very beautiful depending on how she flaunts them.

I've seen so many equally awesome designs that night but of course, the beauty and other physical attributes like height and body shape, of the candidates adds to the overall appearance. However, the designs of the costume accentuates the physical features of a candidate especially if the designer is well-experienced in matching the colors, textures, and shapes of their designs.

Truly, Philippine culture-inspired gowns and dresses are finely crafted with meaningful details and rich in influence from our spectacular heritage.

The event was held at the Metrotent located at Metrowalk in Ortigas Center on May 21, 2016.
