SSI celebrates 30 years with the country’s most #PassionForward

 

Passion has been the driving force of Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) Group, the leading luxury retailer in the Philippines. For 30 years, the company has tirelessly worked on bringing the best of lifestyle to the country through its curated selection of brands from all over the world. From being a retail company, SSI has evolved into a tastemaker and curator for Filipinos—a multi-faceted provider of diverse merchandise reaching a broader market and influencing the lifestyles and preferences of the many.

As it celebrates a new milestone, SSI has launched the “The Curated Life” campaign earlier this year; with the aim to inspire, enable, indulge, and rally its consumers to pursue a life well-lived. More than just a campaign, The Curated Life is anchored on passion in particular, for living to the fullest and striving only for the best.SSI Group, Inc. President Anton Huang Tootsie Angara, Carlo Katigbak, and Ernie Lopez - Irene Martel Francisco, Mia Borromeo, Barbara Aboitiz, Margarita Delgado, and Lizzie Zobel

SSI moves forward and elevates the definition of enhancing lives as the company brings together over 30 individuals—diverse purveyors from various industries—who continue to share in their vision, those who live the curated life as well as champion it through creativity, ingenuity, and commitment to their craft. Whether it be in advocacy, art, business, design, fashion, lifestyle, or social enterprise, these individuals put their passions forward and inspire today’s generation in ways that exceed expectations, always pushing boundaries and elevating the Filipino lifestyle to a class of its own.

To capture the essence of the company’s mission through its #PassionForward campaign and featured personalities—who just like SSI are forging new paths to the curated life—SSI has collaborated with renowned author and lifestyle journalist, AA Patawaran, who shared his literary prowess to tell the story of passions.

In his essay, AA quips, “Beyond retail, the specialty stores opened up a universe of possibilities not only to shoppers but also to passersby who, even without any intention of buying, might have had the impression that here, under our little patch of sky, the whole wide world was suddenly within reach.”

 

He adds, “What unites all the varying specialty and lifestyle concepts under the SSI Group is their ability to elevate taste, amplify desire, awaken aspiration, and empower the drive for self-actualization.”

 

The launch of the #PassionForward campaign will also showcase a photo exhibit by recognized industry photographers Mark Nicdao, Kai Huang, and Cyrus Panganiban, together with photographer hobbyists Kyla Olives, and film director Paul Soriano.

Putting passions forward has been an SSI advocacy through the years, and it continues in this tradition by maintaining partnerships with industry leaders and trendsetters who shape the Filipino style and lifestyle for the better, including showcasing new talents who are driven by passion, whether for service, community, fashion, business, or the arts. With #PassionForward, SSI champions The Curated Life by inspiring every Filipino to choose well, be better, and live a life well-lived—a life that’s well-curated.

In the words of AA Patawaran, “This year, the SSI Group celebrates thirty years of knowing what matters to the Filipino consumer, thirty years of curating life of passion for the Filipino. It invites you to celebrate the milestone by living your very own curated life.” He adds, “It’s making life better and better still by rallying more of us to put our passions forward and to curate our every moment with the things and the thoughts that will bring to us the best life we can imagine.”Angelo and Mariglo Laririt with Bea Zobel Jr. Nikki and Nina Huang

#PASSIONFORWARD PERSONALITIES

Mariana Zobel de Ayala, Deputy Head, Ayala Malls

For Mariana, Deputy Head of Ayala Malls, the mall is more than just a place to shop and eat. It’s a shared space for experiences. Whether it’s excitement, wonder, amazement, happiness or relief, malls are special to Filipinos because it’s here where memories are made. “Our hope is to be a home for both every day and milestone moments for the Filipino – a breath of payday fresh air during a busy week, bonding time over a birthday or graduation celebration, or an easy stop during a busy commute – a place for both special memories and everyday relief,” says Mariana.

Senator Sonny Angara, Senator of the Republic of the Philippines and Tootsy Angara, Cluster Head for Sales, ABS-CBN Network

Through their work in public service and media as one and individually, they are able to pursue their advocacies centered on uplifting the lives of the Filipino people and fighting for the common good. “I think everyone can make a difference, especially in this day and age when voices can be heard. Now a tweet by a non-famous person can go viral if it touches a nerve. So I think people should have their own advocacies, be passionate about what they believe in, and make a stand,” says Sen. Angara.

Tootsy shares, “Be brave enough to care. A negative post can double depression, while a positive post can spread good vibes online. So try as much as possible to be a positive influence when you speak, when you write, and when you act. I think we can make a difference in our own little way.”

Nicole Andersson, Lifestyle and Travel Blogger

As a lifestyle and travel blogger, Nicole has found a platform to voice her thoughts. Through her digital presence, she aims to only spread positivity. “Style can inspire a generation because it helps you find your true self. Your sense of style is what makes you unique; it helps you stand out from other people.”

 JP Anglo, Chef

Chef JP Anglo never backs down from a challenge, especially when it comes to satiating big appetites and exciting the palates of gourmands and foodies alike. Through his restaurants such as Mu Shu, Mai Po, and Sarsa, Anglo brings new fire and fervor to modern Asian cuisine. “What drives my success in the industry is commitment and passion,” says JP. “If you have passion, no matter the challenges, you’ll love going through them. And if you’re committed to a goal, you’ll always find the way to achieve it.” JP’s goal is to encourage Filipino chefs to make things from scratch: “The reward is far greater and the flavor, way better.”

Trickie Lopa, Dindin Araneta, and Lisa Periquet, Founders, Art Fair PhilippinesDindin Araneta, Lisa Periquet, and Trickie Lopa, Founders, Art Fair Philippines

Having founded Art Fair Philippines, Dindin, Lisa, and Trickie continue to serve an important role altogether pioneering the best in modern and contemporary Philippine visual art. Dindin shares, “Art moves forward in time, because it reflects change. Artists can be inspired or influenced by ideas, thoughts, or forms of the past. But by nature, they innovate, break rules, and find ways to express themselves in a contemporary setting, bringing about new perspectives and sensibilities.”

While for Lisa, “How can art not be a good thing?  Art feeds the soul, it enriches life. For some, it is life itself.  It is also a tool. Art helps one see the world in new ways. It feeds intellectual curiosity and satisfies aesthetic wants and needs.”

“As influential global art superstar Olafur Elliasson said, ‘You don’t step inside an art museum to escape the real world but to look even more closely at the real world.’ Artists can’t help but react to what they are confronted with. They are influenced by their histories, their upbringing, their milieu. And they bring this out in their work,” says Trickie.

Armie Jarin-Bennett, Nine Media Corporation/CNN Philippines President

As the President of Nine Media Corporation/CNN Philippines, Armie takes a stand and leads one of the biggest news agencies in the country with a firm hand committed to empowering the public with real, timely, and accurate information. “I’m really very passionate. When you’re passionate in what it is that you do, you can do the job well. Passion is what drives you to think outside the box. That passion allows for you to stay focused and be the best that you can possibly be in whatever career you’re in,” says Armie.  Bennett’s passion stems from her sense of duty: “I always think of the people I serve. They drive me to do my job well. My motivation really is to make sure that my audience is able to receive the critical and very important information that can change and affect their daily lives.”

Mia Borromeo, Home and Travel Magazine Editor

With her keen eye and discerning taste, Home and Travel Magazine Editor Mia Borromeo helps aspiring individuals learn the art of transforming a house into a home. “I don’t think there are any hard and fast rules when it comes to curating or editing. Taste is really very personal and subjective.  There is truth to the saying that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” says Mia. “What one considers “good taste” can vary from person to person and, even from one culture to another. Personally, I appreciate design that radiates understated elegance and simple luxury.”

Kenneth Cobonpue, Industrial Designer

World-renowned industrial designer Kenneth Cobonpue brings Filipino artistry and ingenuity to the global fore through his designs that are both whimsical and groundbreaking. “I love to take the materials I’ve selected and just experiment with them, almost like a couturier with fabric,” says Kenneth. “The handmade process we employ brings about a unique quality to each design. The materials we use have always been around, but it’s the way we use them that makes our pieces different.”

Sofia Zobel Elizalde, Founder and Managing Director, STEPS Dance StudioStephanie Zubiri Crespi, Author of Feast With Me, Travel, Food, and Lifestyle Journalist

Whether it be through the meals one creates and partakes of, or the exciting adventures one heads to, author and travel, food and lifestyle journalist Stephanie Zubiri Crespi inspires all to live a fuller life. “I think the Philippines has so much to offer in terms of creativity and craftsmanship. The biggest challenge for the local industry now is how to avoid doing the same thing every year and to avoid copying each other. What tends to happen is if there’s a trend, everyone will follow. I think we need to encourage our designers to really open up and think outside of the box,” says Steph.

Ernest Cu, President and CEO, Globe Telecom

Multi-awarded Globe Telecom President and CEO Ernest Cu remains to be one of the most powerful telecommunication executives in the world due to his firm yet flexible leadership and inspiring vision. “As a leader, I won’t make a decision for you, because that disfranchises you and it moves the accountability from that person to myself,” says Ernest. “The person who has the project should own that decision and be responsible for its outcome. My job is to empower that individual and provide the support needed.”

Sofia Zobel Elizalde, Founder and Managing Director, STEPS Dance Studio

Sofia Zobel Elizalde, Founder and Director of Steps Dance Studio and Steps Dance Project, aims to celebrate the history of Filipino dance, while promoting and shaping its exciting future. “Dance is definitely part of our heritage. We have so many beautiful dances from the Philippines that really speak of who we are as Filipinos,” says Sofia. “I’ve always felt that Filipino dancers are unique. Filipinos move in a very specific way, and they put so much soul into their movement. When you watch a Filipino dance, there is a deep emotion and elegance that has you entranced. They capture you because they dance from the soul.”

Aryanna Epperson, Creative Director, Always Sunday

Creative director Aryanna Epperson believes in the philosophy of simplicity and advocates self-love and self-care through her fledgling beauty brand, Always Sunday. “There is this misconception that liking makeup or skincare is shallow and vain, but I think makeup and beauty are just so empowering,” says Aryanna. “Self-care is so important. We give all this love to others, but we must not forget to love ourselves first — so why not start with a good beauty routine?” With beauty as her passion, her mission is to empower Filipinas by simplifying it and keeping it fun and accessible to all.

Heart Evangelista-Escudero, Artist

From showbiz sweetheart to international style icon and artist, Heart Evangelista-Escudero is ever-evolving and has become the new face of the modern woman — one who is empowered, outspoken and confident in exploring her creative genius. “Fashion inspires people. I am inspired when I see an amazing individual dressed up like she doesn’t care about the world,” says Heart. “That’s what I love about fashion: it’s women inspiring other women to feel good about themselves. That’s already a purpose — to inspire other people to be comfortable with the way they look and dressing up the way they want to dress up. It’s a simple movement; it’s inspiring people to feel good.”

Irene Martel Francisco, Managing Director, Philippine Tatler

As managing director of the Philippine Tatler, Irene Martel Francisco ensures that she keeps readers abreast of the global movements in luxury lifestyle. “I think luxury continues to retain its appeal, though its definition has evolved,” says Irene. “It used to be perceived as only the most-costly items are luxurious, but now it is more fluid. Luxury can also mean allowing us the time to enjoy these products and services.”

Tricia Gosingtian-Gabunada, Blogging Pioneer

A pioneer in the blogging community, Tricia has not only become a style purveyor, but also one of the most influential figures in the digital sphere. Her passion for fashion stems from the belief that it is transformative. “I love supporting brands with strong convictions and empowering messages, because fashion is transformative,” says Tricia. “I treat it like a shield, something that makes me feel stronger and more confident, and something that can protect me from negativity. We buy clothes that fit our daily life; a day’s mood can change depending on what we wear. We are able to make such decisions, because we are who we are, and fashion helps us in expressing that.”

Angelo Laririt, Founder and Administrator, Potter’s Place School, El Nido

Mariglo Laririt, Director of Sustainability, Ten Knots Development Corporation

Angelo believes that promoting a more conscientious lifestyle begins with education. Through his school, he helps nurture a new generation of good stewards. He says, “What difference do we want to make and what are we willing to give and give up? These are questions that people at different stages in life may ask themselves, and the answers will help determine the choices we make.” While living a lifestyle that is in line with his values, he espouses his passion and advocacy of providing education to the youth. “Strive for excellence and authenticity in everything that you do, and people will start ‘listening’ to your life.”

A staunch advocate of sustainability, Mariglo has built retreats and communities that espouse the values of living green. As Director of Sustainability of Ten Knots Development Corporation, she inspires others to embrace a more conscientious way of living. “Small pebbles of habits can contribute to big ripples of change,” says Mariglo. “The natural environment is a shared resource — most people want to extract value, but how many want to give back?”

Royal Pineda and Budji Layug of BUDJI+ROYAL Architecture+Design are a dynamic duo, known for their innovative green designs that use natural, sustainable materials weaved into a modern aesthetic. Today, the two go beyond designing home spaces and are taking on a dream project: building a modern city, beginning with the Clark International Airport. As their passion for design is evident in their craft, both believe in the transformative power of good design, and how, it can be a gateway to the world. “The Philippine design aesthetic can definitely grow in prominence, especially since our design is very natural – from the materials we use to the cultural influences that take shape in our spaces. It also reflects our personality as a people. We are very welcoming and open and that’s interpreted in the very spaces we occupy, and how we live,” says Budji. As for Royal, he believes that “inspired design should always be a take-off for betterment. Sometimes, “inspired design” becomes a glorified term for copying a design.” He adds, “For us, inspired design is about building from a particular inspiration and creating a better product. There always has to be that element of championing to make something better. It’s an evolution from the previous inspiration.”

Krie Lopez, Founder and CEO, Messy Bessy

Krie Lopez, Founder and CEO of Messy Bessy, believes that businesses can thrive not only with the drive of profitability, but also of compassion. With Messy Bessy, Lopez employs at risk youth and shows other enterprises how meaningful change can be achieved through an inclusive business model. “With Messy Bessy and our products, we look at promoting a green lifestyle as the right thing versus as just another marketing strategy,” says Krie. “It’s the intrinsic goal when it comes to our products: to create value and enable others to lead greener, more conscientious lifestyles.” She adds, “Messy Bessy is really trying to encourage other businesses to do what we’re doing, which is to take in young adults into the work force. The biggest way we can encourage change is by setting the example and inspiring others to follow suit.”

She says, “When someone asked me if my dream was to become the DA Secretary, I said ‘No.’ In fact, my answer was, I think the cabinet member that has the best job is the DOT Secretary, because it’s so easy to sell the country.” As fate would have it, she now has the best job in the cabinet, albeit not the easiest one. Five months into her term, she is optimistic about the job and the country. “It’s tiring, but it’s just so nice to get to promote our country.

They have more avenues to really share what they make.”

Kevin L. Tan, CEO, Alliance Global Inc.

But living in an era of 24/7 communication, there has never been a time where authenticity has been valued the way it is now. It is not enough to just look beautiful—who you are on the inside must also reflect the same kind of beauty — as it should be.”

The same is true with content.”

It is in this spirit of innovation that her passion shines. “When you’re passionate about something, it will translate into the details. It’s because you try to push yourself more. Though passion is all-consuming, the good thing about it is it’s also inexhaustible. You’ll never tire of pushing yourself to the limit.”

Tessa Prieto Valdes, Style Purveyor

Host, columnist, and a style purveyor, Tessa Prieto-Valdes is truly one who inspires all to live big and without regrets. “Does style define a person? Yes and no. I think style helps to highlight your personality and give you the best first impression, but it will not define who you are. Your character will,” says Tessa. As one of the Philippines’ most enduring fashion icons, she continues to inspire with her bold sense of style. She adds, “For me, fashion is an expression of happiness. I have an eccentric style and people say that I’m the only one who can get away with wearing these things and I don’t mind. Your fashion is a reflection of who you are; it’s a statement you make to the world.”
