tresemme-01.jpg

 

Wouldn’t it be great to wake up to savvy, stylish and sleeker hair in the comforts of your own home every single day? As one of the world’s greatest consumer goods companies, Unilever recognizes the ever-changing needs of its consumers and shoppers, especially since more and more Filipinas go to the salon to further nourish and style their hair.

Introducing their newest hair brand that will give women salon gorgeous hair at home, everyday—TRESemme. TRESemme prides itself as a brand being born from salons and dedicated to creating salon-quality, stylist-tested, professional-grade wash, care and styling products to help you create your own style at home.

With two variants that specifically cater to women’s hair care needs, TRESemme is a trusted brand that gives women the confidence to step out into the world–Smooth and Shine and Anti-Hair Fall.

TRESemme’s Smooth and Shine contains Vitamin H and Silk Proteins to calm frizz and tame flyaways leaving hair silky, smooth and shiny. Its moisturizing formula quenches hair’s thirst to keep hair soft and frizz-free.

Amino-Vitamin Complex is the main ingredient in TRESemme’s Anti-Hair Fall line. It deeply moisturizes and nourishes damaged areas to reduce breakage as it evenly conditions hair to restore and revitalize distressed locks, keeping it smooth, healthy-looking and strong.

Apart from nurturing their locks, Filipinas love to style and experiment with hair styles almost every day which is why TRESemme offers their Styling Mousse which provides maximum hold for lasting body and shine and Hair Spray for a long-lasting and extra firm hold.

TRESemme’s Styling Mousse has a humidity resistant formula which protects against styling damage and offers strong hold for a salon-quality, in control, and touchable style all day while their Hair Spray helps control your preferred hair style style all day long, even in damp or humid conditions.

As it slowly becomes, not only a trend but a staple in the Philippines, Tresemme is supported by the TRESemme Style Team who knows the ins and outs of beauty and fashion—The Creative Virtuoso Raymond Gutierrez, The Style Arbiter Liz Uy, The Backstage Onlooker Kelly Misa, and The Tres Aficionados Jing Monis, Victor Ortega and Tinette Puyat. Armed with industry greats, TRESemme will keep your lustrous mane looking its best anywhere you go.

Jay Aguirre

By | Fashion | No Comments

Eversince James was in highschool, he would always tell me that he wanted a custom made shoe!  John Lobb in particular.

Since it was very expensive, of course he never had one made! 🙂 As he is always intrigued by anything CUSTOM MADE, he immediately called up Jay Aguirre which he saw in Rogue Magazine.  Jay custom makes shoes and shirts, pants, suit and denim.

jay-aguirre-01.jpgjay-aguirre-02.jpgjay-aguirre-03.jpg

The reason James wanted to try Jay was because what makes Jay different and unique is that he himself does everything from measuring to actually sewing and finishing the product!  He is the tailor himself!  So James and Jaime tried him out for a special occasion

jay-aguirre-05.jpgjay-aguirre-06.jpg

I like these custom made details 🙂

jay-aguirre-04.jpg

My handsome boys!  When Jaime was a kid, I would always buy him oversized clothes assuming he will grow up fast.  He has outgrown that idea and gets mad at me everytime I do it! haha!! When it’s custom made, it fits just right!

A Playful Fashion Sense with Neck & Neck

By | Fashion, For kids, What's New at Rustan's | No Comments

Heart2Heart missed this cute fashion show!  But thanks to my cousin, Catherine Tantoco Huang, for sharing the beautiful photos.  I missed my nephews and nieces modelling in the fashion show!! The kids all look so happy and glowing in their Neck & Neck outfits 🙂 

 

Manila’s young fashionistas can now enjoy the latest styles from the Spanish fashion house for children NECK & NECK. In line with the celebration of the Spanish festival, NECK & NECK opens its doors to Manila with their exclusive partnership with Rustan’s. 

The event was led by owners Maria and Eduardo Zamacola as they launch their first store in Asia. A colorful fashion show at Rustan’s Makati showcased the latest collection of NECK & NECK.

neck-and-neck-040.jpgneck-and-neck-036.jpg

 

Known as one of the leading brands in children’s fashion, NECK & NECK is now present in 12 countries and has its own exclusive designs and trends that take on a worldly inspiration. 

The brand debuts their latest collection exclusively at Rustan’s, presenting pieces full of color and variety.

neck-and-neck-05.jpgneck-and-neck-07.jpgneck-and-neck-09.jpgneck-and-neck-015.jpgneck-and-neck-031.jpgneck-and-neck-045.jpeg

A wide range of colorful and original floral prints, checks and tie print dominated the runway. Vivid colours such as apple green or red, blended with mauves, blues and pinks, whilst earth colours run into orange tones. Romantic designs with embroidered details, trimmings and stripes, enhanced with a wide selection of accessories to match.

Some of Neck & Neck’s new designs are also inspired by France, the English Countryside or the cosmopolitan cities of Tokyo and New York. The resulting collection has a very international air, in-keeping with the brand’s spirited vibe much like the children they design for.

Most of the pieces embody a casual and laid-back statement anchored with very detailed and different toned embroidery, lending the garments a slightly hippy look but at the same time very well finished. Accessories complemented each look making it unique and perfect for a special occasion or a fun play date. 

The different mix of materials give a casual and fresh look to the collection. Popular trends for this season are Poplins and Oxford for all in ones and shirts, twills for skirts, and Bermudas and trousers. These are just some of the various materials prominent this season together with corduroy, flannel and wool.

 neck-and-neck-042.jpegneck-and-neck-043.jpeg 

As a novelty and for the first time, Neck & Neck also launches a separate line from its main collection: NECK & NECK SPORT, available in the company’s stores and online at www.neckandneck.com. This is an elaborated sports line for children where you can find garments with unique details such as large checks, washed cotton t-shirts with crochet detailing, polo shirts combined with different fabrics and patterns. In addition, they also have sweatshirts, trousers and lightweight sports jackets suitable for different times of the day.

Rustan’s Executive Vice President Anton Huang also graced the event with wife Nina Huang.
