A Preview of Uniqlo Cagayan de Oro

June 29, 2017

Hey everyone! So today lets celebrate because I'll be sharing something that happened yesterday. I know its a big surprise that I am blogging this immediately. I just don't want to add more pressure on catching up with backlogs. And not only that I've recorded a video of the event, so you will see my edited video below. ^_^

So yesterday I attended the store preview of Uniqlo Cagayan de Oro at SM Downtown Premier. Its been awhile since I attended events like this so it was great to catch up with fellow bloggers. After the cocktails and the program, VIP guest and medias was toured around the store and got to shop exclusively after.

Shopping was a headache because there are lots of fashionable clothes to choose from. Its a good thing that the sale representatives are very friendly and helpful to costumers.

Uniqlo will officially open its doors to Kagayanon shoppers this coming Friday, June 30, 2017. This Uniqlo store will be the 40th Uniqlo location in the Philippines. It is also the third store in Mindanao following the recent openings in SM Lanang Premier and SM City Davao. The new store will add over 1,018 sqm of new shopping space, bringing the Uniqlo LifeWear shopping experience to even more customers in Mindanao.

Dont forget to download the Uniqlo app now to enjoy member-only perk.

As I mentioned previously, I've recorded and edited a video to give you all a preview on what's inside Uniqlo Cagayan de Oro.
By the way, since I still need to create a new personal YouTube channel, for now Ive uploaded the video on my local blog, inCDO.com YouTube channel.

CDOBloggers Christmas Party 2015

January 04, 2016

Happy new year everyone!

Last December, I attended the year-end gathering of the local bloggers group here in our city. Its been awhile since we've gathered and so its exciting to see everyone again have fun and party.

Boy Zugba hosted the Christmas party. It was actually my first time to visit the place since its opening early 2015.

True enough the food is superb. I am not much into chicken inasal but I love the taste and texture of the chicken. Special mention on the delicious atsara that comes with it, I so love it that I've ate a lot. hehe A lot of boggers also rave on the cheezy chorizo they said its delicious, no wonder it was all gone in a snap. :D The dessert was good as well... I was able to finish the whole serve of leche flan when I usually just scoop a teaspoon on other occasions. The mango shake is made with real fruit so thats another plus factor to me.

Will definitely comeback and try other food listed on their menu.

I was assigned on the games for the party... Glad they all enjoyed it and had a great laugh. The games were Chopstick game, find your Christmas song partner, Japanese dance using paper plate... There was a raffle draw also of where everyone got the chance to win a Jollibee giftchecks, Boy Zugba giftchecks and a box of Krispy Kreme donuts.

Got a prize for the Blogger with the latest CDO related blog post.

After that we also had our annual CDOBloggers Officers election. Im back to being an officer to the organization.

We ended the party with an exchange gifts and a whole lot of pictures...

Both Jasmine and Ella were so accomodating and friendly. They shared there favorite Gibi shoes of which Ella love the wedge sneakers while Jasmine are into flat shoes. They have also shared that before they endorse Gibi shoes they are already an avid wearer of Gibi Shoes because its reliable and of great quality that last. Jasmine most specially loves to support locally made products.

After the quick chitchat, they went to Limketkai Center where fans and Gibi shoes lovers are waiting for them. The event was filled with great performances from Gibi shoes endorsers Ella Cruz and Jasmine Curtis. Fans was able to get the chance to play with Ella and Jasmine.

After the event, fans was given a chance to meet, greet and have a fan sign with Ella and Jasmine.

On my next post, I'll share my outfit and a shop tour at Gibi Shoes Limketkai Center.

Hello October and hello weekend!

Today I am sharing to you the event I attended last September 26, 2015. Apartment 8 just opened its newest branch at the 2nd floor of Centrio Mall, Cagayan de Oro.

Apartment 8 was established in 2006 and re-launched in 2012. It is a one stop shopping destination for females ranging from high school teen girls to the fashion forward upper women age set. It specializes in the creation, development and selling of a wide array of ready to wear pieces that are on trend and fashionable.

Ive known Apartment 8 from celebrities I followed in Instagram. A lot of celebrities and stylist trusted and love their styles. I too love the variety of modern styles on their clothing.

I just love the theme of their store which is Santorini. And they even have a perfect spot for #OOTD shoot. Ofcourse I didnt miss it and you will see it on my next outfit post. ;)

Here are some sneak peek of the event and the store...

Kasalan 2015 Fashion Show

September 23, 2015

Fabulous Wednesday everyone! How was midweek so far?

Today Im sharing some of my favorite styles at the Kasalan 2015 Fashion Show that happened just last weekend. I didnt actually witness this fashion show but got a glimpse of the beautiful collections that was showcase in the fashion show through a photographer friend in Facebook.

Kenneth Anito's styles are so edgy and modern. I really love it! If im going to wear his collection I probably feel like I run the world. :D

On the other hand, I like Zoe Botwin's tame sexiness style. Talking about love affair with floral, high-lows and maxi skirts that definitely attracts me immediately...

What I like on designer Mark Magallanes gown is that its simple and elegant looking. I also love the details on the gown.

What do you think of this styles? Do you have any fave among them?
