Before gracing the cover of Sports
Illustrated’s swimsuit issue and sporting lingerie for
Victoria’s Secret, Heidi Klum was an undiscovered stunner from the
small West German city of Bergisch Gladbach.
While still in high school, Klum won a modeling
competition that launched her career in Europe. In the ’90s, she
went on to conquer the American market, but wasn’t content on
banking on her looks. She launched her own fragrance, jewelry and
clothing lines and of course her hit reality fashion television
show—Project Runway.
The romantic Valentines weekend was given a jolt
as red roses and pink hearts gave way to seductive black. Of
course I’m referring to the Clear Black Parade which took place at
the Fort Open Field as throngs of lovebirds joined Piolo Pascual in
what had to be the biggest Valentines celebration in the country.
I did that, once. And, as expected, most of the
sites that came up had a lot to do with things like fashion,
celebrities, tourist spots and traditional art.
Continuing its tradition of giving families more opportunities to
enjoy a healthy lifestyle, this year’s edition of the National
MILO Marathon will be staged in 25 cities nationwide with four races
to be held simultaneously in Manila, Tarlac, Cebu and Davao—a
first in the distinguished history of the National MILO Marathon.
Have you tasted REAL Filipino coffee? Real
refers to the four coffee varieties Robusta, Excelsa, Arabica, and
Liberica served in Kape Isla located in Serendra. The coffee shop
dedicated not only to local coffee but to all things Filipino has
been a favorite haunt of coffee lovers since it opened two years
ago.
