Miss Global Philippines 2016 Cultural Costume Competition

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Congratulations to the winners of Miss Global Philippines 2016 cultural costume competition.

#14 April Soliven - Province of Ilocos Sur
#21 Janelle Olafson - Mandaluyong
#4 Danica Ebrada - San Juan Batangas

These lovely ladies stood out among the other candidates not only because their Filipiniana outfits were creatively stunning, it is also because they wore their cultural costumes well.

We all know that even though our clothes can help attract attention, it is also important how we carry our clothing to be equally appropriate to the time and occasion where we need to wear it. Thus, many can wear the simplest style of clothes but could look very beautiful depending on how she flaunts them.

I've seen so many equally awesome designs that night but of course, the beauty and other physical attributes like height and body shape, of the candidates adds to the overall appearance. However, the designs of the costume accentuates the physical features of a candidate especially if the designer is well-experienced in matching the colors, textures, and shapes of their designs.

Truly, Philippine culture-inspired gowns and dresses are finely crafted with meaningful details and rich in influence from our spectacular heritage.

The event was held at the Metrotent located at Metrowalk in Ortigas Center on May 21, 2016.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

With the new school year fast approaching, many college students are looking for housing options close to their chosen schools. Lamudi analyzed its price data to show how much rent to expect from condos in Metro Manila’s university and college areas

These days, condos in Metro Manila are being built close to pretty much everything, and that include colleges and universities, so it is not that difficult to find one that’s practically a short walk away from the gate of one’s school.

The great thing about this is that these real estate projects are also quite accessible to various malls, hospitals, stores, banks, and restaurants that they are attractive even to young professionals, newlyweds, and starter families.

Lamudi Philippines analyzed its property listings data to show how much rent can students (and their parents) expect from condos near Metro Manila’s university and college districts; namely, Manila’s university belt (U-belt) and Quezon City’s Katipunan Avenue.
