Lolo always celebrates special occasions with a mass.

Lolo’s dedication and love for God all his life, though uncomparable, has been a guiding example to me and to the whole family

And for his birthday he has it with his big family which includes his managers and employees of the Rustan Group.  And this has been a tradition for as long as I can remember, even when Lola Glecy was still alive.  Everyone celebrates with him

There was a beautiful part of the mass where each group of company offered a symbolic offering as their gift to Lolo Benny!  It was a very nice and meaningful gesture which I want to share at Heart2Heart

KATE SPADE NEW YORK CELEBRATES THE SUMMER WITH COLOR

 

INSPIRATION

Kate Spade New York continues with the year of color for the summer with new collections inspired by travels around the world. In April, the color of the month is green, inspired by travels to a lush tropical garden, where the Kate Spade New York girl checks into a villa overlooking the sea. In May, travels take the Kate Spade New York girl to a majestic hotel menagerie where she spends her afternoons in open air lodges where she watches brightly colored parrots perch on trees and giraffes roam the grounds. As the sun sets in the sky, the landscape is bathed in shades of orange, May’s color of the month. In June- the Kate Spade New York girl lands in California for the final days of her vacation. She makes her way across the country heading East, stopping in vintage flea markets along the way – picking up treasures like gold chunky chain necklaces and a gold shift dress that inspire June’s color of the month.

Sinequanone Spring Summer 2011 Collection

By | Fashion, Summer, What's New at Rustan's | 3 Comments

SUMMER 2011 …For a bring sunshine-filled break in beautiful Paris – anything goes!

ULTRA FEMINITY AND POETRY

This summer, the Sinequanone woman gives free rein to her imagination, a flower of flowers in her own garden. This summer, the Sinequanone woman is no femme fatale, she goes unadorned in a decorous girl’s frock, recalling the simplicity of the starlet, just a dress at twilight, when the lights are low… light as a falling petal, in a pastel palette of white, beige, pale pink or nude.

Some will prefer flowing styles rich in color.

This summer, seduction will be a question of length.

There will be flowers everywhere, plus vertical stripes that are fun to wear.

Total elegance in a pretty jumpsuit, or a long slinky dress, worn with a biker jacket – or perhaps today’s ultra-narrow silhouette, with a little, three-quarter sleeve tailored jacket, or a suit in white or palest pink.

Trousers will find their way into her wardrobe again, light and flowing, wide-legged or even flared.

Skirts will be full, straight or flower – shaped.

Belts will be the must-have accessory and wide-brimmed hats will be fashionable, without forgetting a multitude of scarves in the hair, very much the nicely brought up young lady…

 No femme fatale, but a femme fleur instead, complete with seventies music – a flower-child…she loves me, she loves me not, she loves me…

In the Philippines, Sinequanone is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) and is located at Greenbelt 5, Ayala Center, Makati City, and SM Mall of Asia.

Raoul Spring Summer 2011 Runway Show

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

THE GREAT ESCAPE

RAOUL brings guests on an exotic journey at its

Spring Summer 2011 Runway Show

 

RAOUL’s presentation of its Spring Summer 2011 collection was a great escape for guests as they were transported from the hustle and bustle of the city to a place reminiscent of long summer days and the romance of travel. 

RAOUL’s Creative Directors, Odile and Douglas Benjamin were largely inspired by Michelangelo Antonioni’s The Passenger, where the exotic locations were the perfect backdrop to both Jack Nicholson and Maria Schneider looking effortlessly chic in the movie.

 Fresh faced models with casually mussed hair and loose ponytails strutted around the U-shaped catwalk in looks that expressed their versatility and practicality, while reflecting old school glamour. Silhouettes were influenced by the 70s, but with a contemporary flair: From intricate lace that featured on playsuits and mini dresses to color blocked pieces and chic paperbag style shorts and skirts, the collection provided the ladies options for work, play and travel. The men’s collection was equally appealing, offering a unique combination of masculine styles in a light and refreshing pastel palette.

MediaCorp celebrities Pierre Png, Andrea de Cruz, Yvonne Lim, and Member of Parliament Michael Palmer sipped on bubbly and nibbled on a selection of delectable canapés through the evening. 

RAOUL’s Creative Directors, Douglas and Odile Benjamin certainly achieved their aim of creating a collection which brings out the functionality and carefree aspect of the traveler, yet offering a touch of indulgence and glamour.
