Just got back from the Boracay! Spent a few days there for my sister’s wedding. Teresa and Sean got married on a lovely sunny afternoon on 03.06.2014 underneath a teepee of dream catchers.
‘Twas beautiful… so beautiful. The guests flew in from Canada, The US, The UK, Singapore, Hong Kong, and of course, within the Philippines. Looking back, I can’t imagine having a better week bringing together all the people we love, getting sandy, and dancing on one beach.
My Photo Diary after the Jump
Olivia Wilde talks to Forbes magazine on her website Conscious Commerce, and integrating for-profit businesses with philanthropy.
The lovely minds behind Homegrown.ph have put together an event that gathers inspiring and influential women to speak on certain topics relevant to us women today.
Building your own dream is not as easy as I imagined it to be. I’ve been fortunate to assist in so many start-up ideas & businesses within the last few years, but still nothing can prepare me for the journey of being my own “boss.”
Everyday I have to keep making decisions that I didn’t know I had to do. In trying to deal with the overwhelm, I just remember that I have to take things one step at a time.
While on the plane ride to Manila today, I read Pure Green Magazine from cover to cover. I love this new find! This magazine focuses on living a green life in a stylish way.
With it’s fantastic imagery and well-written articles, it doesn’t make one feel like adopting a “Green” lifestyle is difficult to embrace.
I’m not a vegan, but lately I’ve found myself in the company of vegans and health-obsessed inspired friends. (You know who you are!) These friends were raving about this raw food restaurant that recently opened in Singapore. So, my friend and I made our way over to Glow Deli, a deli by day and at night transforms into a bar called Afterglow, where they serve their own healthy cocktails.
One of my biggest inspirations right now for my social enterprise, Change Clothes, is Eco-Age, a brand consultancy group started by Livia Firth, wife of Colin Firth. Eco-Age focuses on creating sustainability programs/campaigns for companies.
Beauty & Depth. I’m glad to see more magazines launching into the media landscape. Yay, print is NOT dead. Porter, the new magazine by Net-A-Porter, is one of the most refreshing magazines I picked up recently.
On my way to the Tiong Bahru market I found this gem: Bloesem.
This store is a real-space, pinterest board. It’s everything I imagine my revamped apartment to look like… With clean lines, minimalist decor, and filled with a nicely curated selection of hand-crafted products from around the world.
