Congratulations to our sister in law, Krie, and the whole Messy Bessy family!!!
I was so happy to attend the blessing of their new headquarters! I made sure I came early to I could do my usual investigation and take my photos before everyone arrives and it gets busy… Here is what happens behind the scenes and behind the very popular products we all buy….
I am now thinking if I should implement this schedule in our office 🙂 How nice!
Everyone has to wear the proper uniform when in production
Everything is in order and meets BFAD requirements so you are assured of safe and clean products that pass through BFAD standards
Messy Bessy is composed of 11 young adults. And they are grouped into two batches- half goes to school and half works in production in the morning. And then in the afternoon, they switch so those that went to school in the morning will be in production in the afternoon. And take note, they still get paid to go to school.
Krie set up School H.O.U.S.E. which is an even longer term plan for them. AMAZING!!
I talked to Alvin, the full time teacher, who teaches the class.
He follows a module. He told me that it is a challenge because all the students are in different grade levels. But he said that in one month, they are able to go to higher levels already.
I was so surprised to meet them all! Krie warned me, ” THEY ARE NOT SHY!” 🙂 And it only means that they are all confident human beings who have much potential and much to look forward to in their future. And Messy Bessy is a stepping stone for them. Thanks to Krie for taking care of all of them…for changing the lives of these young adults! What an accomplishment!!
I was quiet ( as I always am ) but I am observing everything going on and you cannot imagine how touched I was seeing all of this in front of me. Heart2Heart was so moved that day just watching them all…God is truly good! I have been telling Krie that she is one of the Presidential candidates in Heart2Heart’s list. We need more people like her! This is just the beginning for her and if she can change the lives of 12 people, maybe one day she can make a difference for the whole country!

Looking in your eyes I see a paradise
This world that I found is too good to be true
Standing here beside you, want so much to give you
This love in my heart that I’m feeling for you
Let ’em say we’re crazy, don’t care ’bout that
Put your hand in my hand baby, don’t ever look back
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby, we can make it if we’re heart to heart
And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers, we’ll still have each other
Nothing’s gonna stop us, nothing’s gonna stop us now
I’m so glad I found you, I’m not gonna lose you
Whatever it takes, I will stay here with you
Take it to the good times, see it through the bad times
Whatever it takes is what I’m gonna do
Let ’em say we’re crazy, what do they know
Put your arms around me baby, don’t ever let go
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby, we can make it if we’re heart to heart
And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers, we’ll still have each other
Nothing’s gonna stop us, nothing’s gonna stop us
All that I need is you
All that I ever need
And all that I want to do
Is hold you forever, forever and ever
And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers, we’ll still have each other
Nothing’s gonna stop us, nothing’s gonna stop us
Nothing’s gonna stop us, nothing’s gonna stop us now
And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever
Nothing’s gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers, we’ll still have each other
Nothing’s gonna stop us, nothing’s gonna stop us now

A combustion of House tradition and cutting edge techniques leads to a rich and luxurious variety of accessories. Gucci’s famed Bamboo bag, first introduced in the late 1940s, is reborn as the New-Bamboo with a leather-wound handle, new shoulder strap and innovative materials such as stoned pigskin, stoned crocodile, and bonded neoprene GG.
Crocodile, the noblest of Gucci’s historic skins, has undergone a radical transformation – fading from a smoked, opaque surface to a hand-polished brilliance in a web effect on flat clutches or oversized bags. The mechanical horsebit cinched with ropes of braided leather has become a key feature on the handbag handles. 
Metal embroidery appears on white calfskin handbags, silver rope necklaces, and on evening platform sandals that climb up the ankle. Platform shoes, grab the ankle with a buckle while a spliced knee-high boot dramatically spirals up the calf.
In the Philippines, Gucci is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) and is located at Greenbelt 4, Ayala Center, Makati City and Rustan’s Tower Shangri-La Plaza Mall.

It was Heart2Heart’s first time to visit the Green Market ( Whitespace Green Market December 2, 2009 ) at Whitespace since they started last December. I enjoyed!!! It is nice because it is spacious, neat and airconditioned 🙂 It is every last Sunday of the month so I am looking forward to the upcoming one this month

The Fusion of Art and Fashion: Longhamp
For Spring/ Summer 2010, Lonchamp is inspired by the world of art, imagining a woman who- in the tradition of legendary muses and collectors- expresses her eclectic passions in a personal style that is innovative, individual and devastatingly chic. As she travels from studio to gallery, museum to art fair, her tastes embrace the season’s two key trends: a romantic theme of dusty pastels and zingy acid brights evokes images of Miami and Capri, while a contemporary theme of graphic contrasts beween intense indigos, vibrant oranges and lacquer reds buzzes with artistic energy of New York and Hong Kong.
Carefree and cosmopolitan, she goes where the mood takes her, by turns model and muse, artist and aesthete. To accompany her through spring, summer and beyond, Longchamp has created a gallery of bags from which she chooses according to her inspiration. Among the highlights are the iconic Gatsby, revisited in the collection’s key colours, exotic finishes and even silkscreen- printed with a painterly motif, and the canvas Expression holdall, a wonderfully witty on the season’s standout paint-splash print, decorated with a spontaneously set patch pocket and labels, and trimmed with fine natural leather.
Romantique Collection: Beige- Celadon
Delicate as porcelain, pale celadon quietly sets off a refined palette of natural beige and flesh tones. Exotic finishes create interesting textural effects, most strikingly a bold viper print on patent calfskin.
Gris- Citrine
Serene and sophisticated in the summer heat, the season’s cool cocktail of grey shades is spiked with a dash of acid bright citrine. 
Moka- Lilas
In this deliciously feminine theme, rich dark chocolate and mocha shades are accented by deliate lilac and parma- dusty pastels which capture the season’s romantic mood with sophistication rather than sweetness.
Indigo- Orange
The collection’s graphic inspiration is crystallized in this theme, which contrasts vibrant orange with intense indigo, and features the season’s standout print- spontaneous streaks of colour on a natural beige background, inspired by a painter’s palette.
In the Philippines, Longchamp is available at Rustan’s Makati, Shangri-la Mall and Ayala Center Cebu
We were invited for a breakfast meeting at Tosca ( Tosca November 7, 2008 )and this is what we had…
There is a buffet and then you check from the list your main breakfast dish… You can choose one main dishes and the beauty is they serve it fresh rather than getting from a buffet for the main dish
Main dishes we had
Filipino Set – Beef Tapa choice – It was really good!
Omelette of Your choice with bacon and sausage
Chinese set – Congee
