Oxygen x Billboard Launch

     Fashionistas and Music lovers united in an afternoon of music and fashion last April 14, 2016 at the TriNoma Activity Center for the launch of renowned fashion and lifestyle brand and partnership with the world's leading music publication- Oxygen x Billboard!

     If you got passion for music and fashion then you will definitely get hooked with Oxygen’s latest collection! This collaboration is not the usual partnership of local brand with international groups. Methinks this kind of collaboration will only be made possible by brands that are already an institution. Sharing with you the highlights of Oxygen x Billboard Collection launch below.

Oxygen x Billboard Launch

     This summer, well-loved local fashion brand, Oxygen, announced that it has entered into a partnership with Billboard, the world’s premier source for trends and innovation in music, to come up with a collection that aims to help today’s youth to experience, discover and celebrate their passion for music and fashion.

Oxygen x Billboard Launch

     The OXYGEN X BILLBOARD collection pieces will be a hit in your closet as I've seen basic colors like white, black, and gray. These colors are perfect for everyday use. Features of the collection include:

Oxygen x Billboard Launch
A collection of graphic tees, perfect for everyday wear!

• Items for everyday use, including graphic tees, pullovers and accessories like caps and bags. 
• The designs, which take heavy inspiration from the rock and hip-hop genres, come mostly in black and white—save minimal pops of color here and there for select items—and scream of New York street fashion.
• Affordable and budget-friendly items.
• The brand is encouraging people to move out of their comfort zones and do things that allow them to leave a mark; to make a statement an by wearing a piece or two from the collection means making your own fashion statement.

     These fashion pieces were on display during the event. There was a pop-up store that showcased full range of Oxygen collab with Billboard on the spot. We also witnessed musical performances that made us vibe to the sounds of bands and DJ :)

     And to give us a glimpse of the collection, Sam Concepcion performed while the models strut in the catwalk for that much awaited fashion show. Those models showed us the how to style Oxygen x Billboard collection for everyday wear.

BAYO Style Harvest 2015: A Holiday Heritage Collection Launch

     The most wonderful time of the year started early as BAYO recently launched their 2015 holiday collection entitled- BAYO Style Harvest 2015. The event was held at BAYO Glorietta 2 branch last November 17 which showcased the parol (a star-shaped lantern from the Philippines) inspired designs for the holiday collection. 

     I presume that some of you already know BAYO and have worn a piece or two from this homegrown brand. BAYO is proudly Filipino. When I was in high school I thought BAYO is an international brand because their clothes have high quality materials and the designs are unique, better from what I see from other brands. Fast forward today, BAYO still produces designs that matches the lifestyle of every Filipina. See the designs from the 2015 holiday collection and highlights of the event below.

BAYO Style Harvest 2015: A Holiday Heritage Collection Launch

      Style Harvest: A Holiday Heritage showcases the Filipino Christmas tradition by incorporating the designs with the beautiful colors and festive aesthetic of the parol, considered the symbol of the Filipino Christmas spirit. To make the launch more festive, the Verlanie Foundation Philippines Children's Choir sang Christmas carols that filled the air with Christmas spirit.

    During the launch, BAYO also introduced their newest ambassador- Ms. Iza Calzado who confessed to be one of the Filipinas who liked the brand so much when she was still young. She shared her stories about BAYO and to be one of the brand's endorser is a dream come true. I was amazed that Iza Calzado remained down-to-earth despite all her achievements in movie and film industry. She answered all the questions with confidence that day and gave us an idea of what designs from the BAYO collection exudes her personality.

“I’m happy to work with Bayo,” says Calzado. “They’re a company that knows where they come from, and they put a lot of effort in showing that through their products. I’ve always been in full support of local brands, and with Bayo’s efforts to uplift the different Filipino traditions, I am more than happy to have partnered with them.”

     As for the parol-inspired designs, I like what Iza was wearing during the event. Look at the photo above. Her dress looks so elegant with the parol design. I'm diggin' this dress because the style is perfect to wear in family reunions and Christmas parties. Here's a glimpse of the collection. You will see blouses, skirts, and dresses with colorful parol prints either on the top, at the bottom or center of the clothes.

     The designs are classy and feminine but you can wear it either casual, semi-formal, or business attire under a blazer. I'm not a fashion guru but seeing the styles from this collection makes me wanna make my own Christmas party outfit guide. A little mix and matching will do and for sure you'll the the star of your Christmas parties.

   Bayo had partnered with the artisans of San Fernando, Pampanga to provide beautifully crafted parols in all of its stores nationwide. These colorful Christmas lanterns would adorn the windows of each Bayo store throughout the season.

     So drop by at the nearest BAYO branch and be delighted with the colorful parols on display. I highly recommend the designs from this collection, you can wear the pieces not only during holiday season as I see most styles flexible which can be mixed and matched with basic pieces from your wardrobe. 

     Thank you so much BAYO for having me and for the Filipino delicacies that you've served that day. The 'kakanin' brought Christmas closer and this collection is an inspiration to the parol makers of Pampanga. Congratulations on a very successful launch and more of this heritage collection in the coming years!
