Bvlgari's Save the Children Campaign


Jessica Stam for Bvlgari

See the ring? It's a B.zero1 ring from Bvlgari. Jessica Stam wore it to help raise funds for the Bvlgari's Save the Children Campaign. For the 125th Years Anniversary of Bvlgari, they decided to celebrate it by participating in "Save the Children's Rewrite the Future Campaign". The campaign was aimed to provide educations for over millions of children suffering the consequences of war and conflicts. 

Bvlgari has created a special silver ring and pendant engraved with the founder's name, Sotirio Bvlgari and the Save the Children Logo. Though Bvlgari is known for favoring gold in their masterpieces they decided to use silver to pay tribute to Sotirio Bvlgari's origin as a silversmith. 

Last November 15, 2012 at Rome opening of "Stop. Think. Give." wherein a photo and video exhibit of photographer Fabrizio Ferri was held, Bvlgari happily announced that the successful sales of the  ring have pushed donations over $20 million, exceeding a target set in 2009 when the partnership began. The said exhibit is set to channeling the Bulgari/Save the Children partnership over the past four years.

Celebrities, including Stam show support in this campaign. Some are Ben Stiller, Debra Messing, Eddie Van Halen, Olivia Wilde, and Jessica Biel. Below is the video campaign.


You can purchase the ring online at Bvlgari's website

In a case of life imitates art, these arts were inspired by some dresses I love... Suddenly art patterns started appearing on everything from clothes to accessories, so I did the reverse!

Follow me on Tumblr


FRISM the Innovative

I think, Innovative is the right word for me and for my blog. As I do not follow the norms. So instead of creating magazine article for my blog... I created this - a magazine cover!

This is my idea and I did it first.

Purple Fashion

After watching etcHQ trendcast featuring purple fashion and accessories last weekend, I told myself why not? I'm not afraid wearing purple though my skin color is quite dark. I have quite a number of clothes and accessories associated with that shade. Since purple reigns supreme in fashion these days, I decided to update my closet with it. 

Here's the roundup of what I got. 



The top is a round neck long sleeve from Mango. I'm a bit obsessed now with sweatshirts and long sleeves so every now and then I'm trying to buy at least one every time I go to mall. My skirt is not purple (I know) it's a gray pleated skirt from Acne which I purchased online a months ago. Well, according to some fashion experts you can combine purple with shades like, green, gray and yellow. Pink, red and orange is a big NO to match with purple. So instead of busting my head to find a perfect purple skirt or shorts I decided to use my gray skirt instead. 

The bag is quite a familiar image, it's from Hermes. Finally got one! My dilemma of which shade  to have for this bag is now ended. With no hesitation I choose to have this color. 

My shoes are ballet flats from Aldo. I purchased mine online which costs about Php800.00 including the shipping fee. Quite low compared to its actual price here which I saw from Rockwell. 

I'm not fond of accessorizing myself too much, well aside from special occasions. But for my day to day outfit I prefer having one or none at all. I found this Swatch Ciel Clair Violet watch at their stall at Trinoma. See gray and purple can blend perfectly. 

I also found these stuff which you may one to consider:



1. Dress from H&M
2. Top from Kamiseta
3. Romper from Penshoppe
4. Flats from Penshoppe
5. Mirrored Cheetah Shopper's Tote from Forever 21
6. Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis from Louis Vuitton
7. Headband and Jelly case from Landmark Department Store
8. Limited Edition Studio Purple Headphone from Beats by Dre

Now on Blogspot!



Ola! This is not the first personal blog I have. I have one before using Wordpress, but it was been hacked so  I decided to abandon it. And then last year I also started to have my Tumblr. And the first tumblr account I have been hacked and deleted too.

It took quite a long time to go back and blog again. I'm still in the mourning phase because it's not easy to see that all your efforts to have a good and high quality blog just taken away from you by this super genius hackers.

But yeah, I'm back! 

Before writing too much stuff, I wonder if I can sum up all the blogs/sites I currently have. Why not?

Forever Tumblr!

Well, may be I will be forever a Tumblr user. Tumblr is a microblogging platform and a social networking site too. It allows you to post multimedia files such as pictures, audio, videos, text and display it to a short-form type of blog. Tumblr users can follow each other, reblog each other or you can just make it private. Tumblr is quite the easiest blog site I've known. The dashboards, themes, etc. are all user friendly. I even started creating my own tumblr themes. But unfortunately, this site is not too popular here in the Philippines. Oh well! Currently, I have three Tumblr accounts. Yes three!

My main blog is frism. This is a photo blog which features mostly fashion, home interiors and food. Why frism? I actually wanted “prism” but the url has already taken, so intead of using too much hyphen (which is popular in tumblr urls) I decided to use letter f instead. I wanted this blog to be light and minimalist at all times.  Here's a screenshot of my archive. 


Since this blog is quite minimalist and light, I decided to have another blog contrast to this, wildfrism. Anything that catches my eyes but seems not suited for my first blog goes here. You may want to compare the difference and similarities between the two, here's a screenshot of my wildfrism.


Both blogs are classified being a colored blog, indie, serene and soft grunge. If you have Tumblr you will definitely know what I mean. 

Then I also have a music collaboration blog - melody-network. Collaboration blog or popularly known in Tumblr world as "collab blog" is a blog runs by 2 or more owners. This blog offers you nothing but music (audios and videos). Here you can have a preview of what type of music I usually love listening too. Just visit the site and try to listen with all the songs we already have there. 

Polyvore.

I started to have my Polyvore account three months ago and I'm enjoying it a lot. Polyvore is a fashion social site which allows users to assemble sets of items found in the website database. But as the users started to explore more, Polyvore now offers you sets divided to these categories:
  1. Fashion
  2. Interiors
  3. Art and Expression
My polyvore account, frism is a mixture of the three. But most of my sets are Art and Expression, and Fashion. Polyvore users can also follow each other, you can also join groups and contest. You can easily monitor your blog activities and standing. I love this site because of the endless possibilities that I can do here. My ideas and wildest imaginations work really well in this site. Here's a screenshot of some of my sets. 


Pinterest. 

This site is almost the same with Tumblr (as the way I'm using it). It is a content sharing or bookmarking site which allows you to "pin" images and other contents on your pinboard. The only different of this site to Tumblr is that it allows you to categorize each photos according to boards you have created. My account, frism27 have 12 boards which includes, artwork, fashion, crafts, home interiors and food. I don't usually update my account but you can still visit it and have a slice. 

And that's a wrap! In addition to all those blogs above is my new baby. So that's for now, amigos!
