Call Her Carly (The Call Me Maybe Phenomenon)

Let's all admit it. the song is kinda catchy. And it goes on and on over the radio for some time now. And funny how this song just emerged out of nowhere!

Well, not really out of nowhere. Carly Rae Jepsen is a Canadian singer-songwriter from Mission, British Columbia. She placed third at the 5th season of Canadian Idol. She released her first album back in 2008 called "Tug of War" which did well in the Canadian billboards. And just recently, she released her 2nd album named "Curiosity" with its carrier single (wouldn't you know it) "Call Me Maybe".

The song is so catchy that celebrities, models, and even athletes are so fascinated with it that they even made lip sync covers of it which spread viral like a really bad flu over the world wide web.

Well, here are some of my favorites of such:

And it did not just stopped there. Various Youtube stars also made their own version of this soon to anthem. And here are few of those highest hitting ones.

Well, that's a crazy amount of attention for just a song. I bet Carly still has a lot from where it came from and i will be the first in the line to hear that.

PS: Im still waiting for the time when will Carly really gives out her number.

Style Origin: Mensweek on Abreeza

Done are the days where the dudes are just glad to have their good old jeans and plain tees. Keeping track with the fast evolving world of fashion is the newest generation of Men. And since style begins at Ayala, the company redefined and elevated the retail experience through a series of fashion events touring all over the Ayala Malls in the Philippines, with the help of Philippine Star and Tiger 22.

I had the opportunity to have a front seat experience of the said dynamic show at the Abreeza Mall of Davao. My eyes feasted with the various men's wear available at the mall which goes from casual to formal. Featured brands includes Armenia, Native, Penguin, Bauhaus, Girbaud, Treton and Giordano. 

Here are some snapshots from the said event courtesy of Ashley Alvarez (http://simplyashleyalvarez.blogspot.com/)

Kapamilya Star Rayver Cruz opened the show wearing a laid-back black outfit covered with black and grey blazer.

Armenia featured very sleek yet wearable formal wears sporting Barong Tagalog as an inspiration

Ellesse dared to cross the boundaries between casual and street wear, and yes, they were successful.

Native brought a lot of color along the runway with a variety of playful hues.

The laid-back style of Penguin reflected the style that is mostly preferred by dudes nowadays which they kinda spiced-up with juicy colors.

In the show, they also featured three local fashion which are exquisitely talented and they have their world-class works to prove it. They are Gian Romero, Bang Pineda and Ronan Opina.

Gian Romano showcased a the perfect combination of leather and cotton in his very comfy looking jackets which he smartly paired up with high kickin boots.

Who says black and orange doesn't look good together? Bamg Pineda don't really think so. With his blazers that i could really say BLAZING with its interesting cuts to his not-so-casual casual wear gorgeously filled with studs and mirrors.

Ronan Opina redefined the standard of formal wear with this collection featuring earthy hues and interesting choice of fabrics.

And of course my friends and i had a real blast with this event. Hopefully we could get the chance to attend some more of such.
