LIFEFACTORY™: Ready to FLIP


LIFEFACTORY™: Ready to FLIP
Bianca Araneta-Elizalde, a mom, wife, model, host and eco-warrior, introduces to us Lifefactory glass bottles with silicone sleeve and Flip top cap during a mini-gathering at Juju Eats Restaurant, along Chino Roces Ave. Extension, Makati City. Araneta-Elizalde is a firm believer that children and adults alike should never drink in plastic bottles or containers because of its high lead content which we all know is bad for our health. Lifefactory bottle as it turns out is a modern and eco-friendly line of reusable glass baby bottles, glass beverage bottles and accessories.

Lifefactory introduces another amazing addition to its adult line of glass beverage bottles. The new Flip top cap saves you time and effort with its smart and functional design. All you need is one hand to open your bottle and drink! No need to remove the cap from the bottle. The pivoting handle allows you to do more as it provides a great way to carry the bottle and stows out of the way for drinking. The wide-mouth access makes it easy to add ice cubes or fresh fruits into your drink. How convenient is that?

Just like the Lifefactory you’ve come to know and love, the new Flip top cap still comes with a BPA/BPS-free and phthalate-free glass bottle that is safe for everyday food and beverage contact. Hot or cold, slushed or iced, Lifefactory bottles are perfect for the fickle-minded drinker. It can withstand extreme temperatures letting you enjoy your drink however way you want it.
Toting a Lifefactory will never be out of style. Choose from classic neutrals to more bold colors to match your #outfitoftheday. Mix, match, or color block your caps and bottles if you’re feeling more daring. The choices are yours to make!
Ready, Set, FLIP! Drinking has never been this fun with the new Lifefactory Flip top cap bottle.

Go grab one now! 

Very safe for babies! @lifefactory_ph together! #Goglass

Ditch the plastic bottles and go glass!

JAG Origins: Presents Nina Garcia

Filipino fashionistas and fashionista wannabes troop to the 
first ever Jag Origins fashion show/ seminar held at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City at day 3 of the Philippine Fashion Week last May 24, 2013.

The Jag Origins fashion show/ seminar launches Jag's Holiday 2013 collection that featured stretch denim for men and ankle-cut jeans for women.
Boy Abunda interviewing Nina Garcia
No less than Project Runway judge and Marie Claire creative director Nina Garcia served as the inaugural speaker of JAG Origins last Friday. We were ecstatic when we learned during her interview with Boy Abunda that Nina Garcia also served as fashion director of fashion magazine Elle for 17 years.
The well-attended Jag Origins fashion show also showcased the latest creations of Filipino designers Jerome Salaya Ang, Norman Noriega and Jeffrey Rogador.
Jag Origins fashion show/ seminar is envisioned to be an annual seminar of influence and inspiration that "spreads art, design and creative inspiration" among upcoming fashion designers.
I also saw several fashion designers as well as famous celebrities in the audience and some beauty queens also took part in the event, including previous Miss Universe delegates Janine Tugonon and Shamcey Supsup and 2013 Miss Universe-Philippines Ariella Arida.
