CK Free Event at BMW Autohaus

CK Free Event BMW Autohaus Philippines

Last Wednesday, friend T and I trudged our way from our office building to BMW Autohaus for the CK Free Event. I would have caught up with blogger friend S, but she couldn’t make it that day.

Anyhoos, the event started of course with the emcee introducing the brand. (Okay, I wasn’t paying attention then, that’s why I didn’t get her name). :P

The emcee called up the president of Luxasia. After which, the new senior product manager was introduced, and so the advert was finally put into play.

The models “strutted” their stuff:

BMW also launched their latest model in the Philippines — The BMW Z4 Roadster. This two-door convertible sports coupe arrived in a stylish flair, flaunting its ability to automatically close the roof as well as the compartment.

T and I had a look-see on the car. It’s really quite a piece of art! I love the interior just as I love the exterior. T went inside the car for a better feel. :D

My grainy pic didn’t do justice. The car’s really “muy guapo” in person!

The event won’t be complete without the booze wine courtesy of Casillero del Diablo, and some pica-pica from Zeno bar.

 

More on CK Free

 

CK Free, the new men’s fragrance from Calvin Klein, is inspired by the spirit of the modern, independent man who lives everyday to the fullest. It has an aromatic warm woody fragrance, unexpectedly fresh, yet casual and distinctly masculine.

Here’s the CK Free US Commercial:

Oh Tavi, Tavi, Tavi!

I must admit that I’m turning into a fan of this uber cute 13-year-old fashion prodigy. She really writes so well, and has an exquisite taste for fashion. She usually styles up donning her family’s vintage hand-me-downs plus designer’s gifts[!] with her now-pixie cut androgynous hair ‘do and clear spectacles. She’s even asked by one London-based fashion house to collaborate with them, designing her own iconic “Tavi” tee.

Grabe, with such a young age, she’s making her way into the fasyon industry. I could never be this envious! :P

Addicted to Looklet

I stumbled Looklet.com even before I read Chuvaness’ amazing challenge, albeit I didn’t bother checking what’s beneath the surface the first time. I guess I was too preoccupied for dress-up games, especially with a huge selection of wardrobe that strains me. Admittedly, part of my time goes to checking fashion blogs and websites, the rest goes to work and anything that interests me (insert something academic here).

Going back, I hurriedly rushed on creating my first look as soon as I learned about the contest. Not that I’m in dire need of a new phone, I’m just interested in joining and see if I got what it takes to win or to have my style noticed at least. I quickly submitted my first work as soon as I’m done mixing and matching stuff for my doll. And then, I jumped onto my second look, and my third, fourth…it doesn’t stop there! :P

Simply put: I got hooked. It was very time-consuming, yet it actually teases my imagination and stirs my creative juices at the very least. It’s nice coming up with a few pieces that’s so faboosh (well IMO)–something I’d like myself to wear on any day. :P

Here’s some of the looks I created:

Lost Shopping in Japan Looklet

*Palettes are so basic. Just black, ecru and tan. Looks casual, yet sosyal. Parang CVS style.*

Floral Elegance Looklet

*The key item is the lovely floral tulip skirt that matches well with the Victorian collared top. I’m beginning to love the clean, elegant look! :) *
