Shame on me. I was late in picking up Lifestyle Asia Magazine’s Cheryl Tiu and that caused us to be tardy at the Hermes Fleurs d’ Indiennes Silk event. Eeps!!
When we got there, Bianca Valerio (left) was already in the middle of a presentation, as model Valerie delos Santos (right) got busy demonstrating the many uses of the beautiful Hermes silk scarf.
Valerie used it as an accent to the Jypsiere
The scarf can also be used as a bag! 🙂
Or a top 🙂
Or you can tie 2 scarves together and just wear a bodysuit underneath
And voila, new look! C’est trés chic!
After the scarf presentation was over, we were called one by one to demonstrate what we could do with the Hermes scarf.

| Thank you for taking this photo, Cheryl! |
Since I was late, I had to improvise and think of a way to work the scarf. So I knotted the middle part of the scarf and made it into a top 😀 Didn’t turn out exactly the way I wanted because I didn’t knot the midsection properly, but haha, everyone got the picture 🙂 *I didn’t really embarrass myself… at least I didn’t think I did hahaha*
Seen at this Press- only event were Lifestyle Asia Magazine (LA) Editor- in- Chief Anna Sobrepeña with my lovely neighbor and LA’s Managing Editor Cheryl Tiu

Boo, was not able to take a photo of Arnel and Hector of Sense and Style Magazine as well as the other editors and peeps who attended 🙁
But while I was there, I took some random shots of the new merchandise. I was literally drooling and I had to stop myself from doing so 😀 😀
Crocodile picotin and Kelly wallet! These babies are well- worth their prices! Crocodile skins that Hermes use are flawless and are only of the very, very best!
There was a crocodile lindy in vert anis in- store, so if you feel a crocodile birkin or kelly is not for you, the lindy is an excellent alternative. And the color of that lindy is really superb!
There’s always something at Hermes for everybody. If you can’t afford a bag just yet, may I recommend a bottle of Un Jardin Sur Le Nil for you? It’s my favorite scent to date 🙂 And that bottle lasts a loooong time too 🙂
And of course, if you want a bag, here’s a plethora of styles to choose from!
You’ve got the Victoria, the Lindy, the Evelyne, the Bolide, the Jypsiere, and the Toolbox (my recent favorite!!!). I love the Toolbox because it has 2 different looks! This is really a bag worth considering, baghags. You don’t have to get the birkin or the kelly. These are the perfect Hermes bags right there in the photo!
It was a very successful event. Mario Katigbak and his team are as always, so accommodating! It’s no surprise that Hermes Manila is in top form! 🙂 Congratulations Hermes! And thank you for my gorgeous green scarf! What a nice early birthday present 🙂
