Giordano Denim Now and Denim Forever

HEY COFFEEHOLICS!!! 

We all know that fashion trends come and go, right? But only one thing remains constant: DENIM!

(Yes to denim! :) Its a staple for EVERYONE right? Its really rare for anyone to NOT own any denim piece)

Since it was invented in 1853, the sturdy fabric has been molded into different fits and styles – bellbottom, boot cut, bleached, washed, colored. Ha! I remember during high school, "FLARED" denims were the craze. All my denims were flared or "boot cut" (of course! haha!).  And unique to the denim is how it flatters every person who wears it, from workers to rock stars, cowboys to celebrities; it’s the ultimate staple apparel. True to its long and rich history, the denim jean is designed to last forever.

In celebration of this classic material, Giordano Philippines launches “Denim Now. Denim Forever”. Can be worn by anybody in any season for almost any occasion, the raw and colored denim offered in the collection is available in different fits and styles.

“Denim Now. Denim Forever” underlines the material’s sturdy yet comfortable characteristic. “Compared with last year’s denim collection, this year’s pieces are different in terms of fabrication, thread and pocket design. The styles now have a higher spandex content, thus allowing more movement for the wearer,” said Ella Santos, Giordano Philippines Denim Category Buyer.

In this collection, Giordano highlights the classic beauty of raw denim. “The dye is expected to fade gradually with continuous washing. This is one of raw denim’s unique characteristics and it must not be considered as an imperfection,” Santos said.  YES for faded denims right? :)

Giordano raw denim jeans come in two kinds of fits and styles: tight tapered and slim tapered for men, slim tapered and skinny straight for women. These pieces are also designed to adjust to the wearer’s shape and size, acquiring a more personal fit.

Colored denim jeans are the ultimate expressions of fun, comfort and style. Similar to Giordano’s legging jeans, the spandex content in these pieces allows wearers to move freely and comfortably. The jeans are available in eight different colors – classic black, washed red, oxblood, mustard, blue turquoise, navy blue, dusty white and dark denim – in skinny tapered for women and tight tapered for men.   

Pieces from the Giordano’s “Denim Now. Denim Forever” are available in all Giordano stores nationwide at an affordable price of PhP999, starting August 23 until mid-September. 

So get on the Denim groove and drop by Giordano nearest you. Happy Shopping! :)

Monsters University Collection by Giordano x OOTD

Truly monsterrific: Giordano unveils new Monsters University collection

HEY COFFEEHOLICS! 

Giordano truly breaks the barriers between humans and monsters as it unveils its latest collection of characters from Disney•Pixar movie, “Monsters University,” the exciting prequel to the 2001 breakthrough animated film, “Monsters, Inc.” last June 21.

The special collection allows you to experience the magic and fun of being a student at the world’s best Scare University as it shows on the big screens.

Timeless, essential and delightful, Giordano’s Monsters University collection is made with the brand’s signature 100% high quality cotton material which is easy to mix and match with other pieces, perfect  for a long day of classes or for a casual day out with friends.

 Make like a Monsters University student and display your school pride with Giordano’s MU-inspired shirts emblazoned with the Monsters University logo.

If your style is preppy, polo shirts with the University logo up your style quotient without sacrificing comfort. They are available in fun, vivid colors.

 Just like any other human college, MU is active when it comes to the Greek experience. The Oozma Kappa (OK) is a house of wholesome, good-natured misfits who seem to have bonded over their inability to make it through the Scaring Program. Among their members are the adorable Mike and Sulley. You can be a part of this special (even endearing!) society with colorful crewneck shirts featuring the unique Oozma Kappa coat of arms.

Admirers of the lovable one-eyed green monster Mike or the giant furry blue creature Sulley can now wear their hearts on their sleeves with crewneck shirts featuring the characters and go crazy with Team Mike vs Team Sulley discussions.

Aside from the comfy shirts, Giordano also offers hoodies adorned with the MU logo which will surely keep you warm and stylish during the rainy months ahead. MU-inspired cheerleader dresses are also available in selected branches.

 The fun new collection is available in all Giordano branches nationwide. 

I showed these pics to my students and most of them wanted the Monsters University Collection by Giordano. Its really cool and really gives off the feeling that it is as if a university shirt indeed. 

So Coffeeholics, I really had fun at the Giordano Monsters University Fair. 

So glad that I wore this outfit that gave me more freedom to move about!

Giordano Monsters University Fair

Hey Coffeeholics! If you have been following my instagram (follow me! @kai_sensei) and twitter, then you'd see these awesome super fun photo of me and my niece Sofi having a blast!

Bigay na bigay kami ni Sofi dito! hehe!

Yes my dears, that's coz yesterday, we were able to "enroll" 

to the Giordano's Monsters University Fair at Trinoma.

Giordano Philippines is inviting you to get a taste of what it’s like to participate in Monsters University’s Freshman Fair when it opens its wrought iron gates. 

Yes they have mock gates! Nice noh?

Experience being in the world’s best scare university, don Mike Wazikowski’s shoes and attend Giordano’s Monsters University Fair on June 29-30 at the TriNoma Activity Center and July 6-7 at the SM Mega Mall A Showcase Area.  Fun and freebies await you. 
No tuition fee required!  Entrance is free for all!

Take a stroll around the booth area with friends and family.  Participate in various games and activities that will test your brain, brawn and scare-ability.  Win special prizes and display that Monsters University pride!

 

That's Sofi having her photo taken. 

Us bloggers got a chance to have our own Monsters University ID!

Also the lanyards (ID lace) and baller ID were sooo cool. Feeling student talaga! hihi!

At the Giordano Monsters University Fair, several fun-filled games are in store for you. 

The activity center is divided into several areas. Each area has a specific "course" where you can learn and have fun! So check out this first stop.

WELCOME TO THE SCREAMOLOGY SECTION!

  

Here in the Screamology section, your speed is tested! Test your mental speed with a playtime of 2Fuse at the first gaming station called Screamology. Yeah here, you can scream out your frustration as you try to beat that buzzer beater to get the top score. Combine numbers with similar colored cubes in 60 seconds. I have this game on my android app so I was pretty confident. LOL. Sadly you can't use the boosters.. wahaha. So my highest score was 43,000. T__T boo. 

 

Fellow blogger Arnie Villanueva (thats her on the left) showed her stuff and easily bagged the top score with a grand total of 80,000 plus. Ang taray! Look at her intense concentration sa game. hehe. Blogger Ana Gonzales on the right is learning the game! Go Ana go!

WELCOME TO THE FIELD OF SCREAMS!

Are you into sports? Wanna test your athletic ability? THEN you definitely shouldn't miss out trying out THE FIELD OF SCREAMS. This second gaming station allows sports buffs to size up their fitness and agility with XBOX Kinect Sports.  Find out if you can make it into the varsity team or if you need more training.

 Some of the "sports" available where boxing, volleyball, table tennis, group exercise, and probably a whole lot more! I tried out the table tennis. Basically its because its the best sport that I know!

Grabe super fun! It really felt like I was playing the real thing! I found myself making the proper posture and form in table tennis and nakaka "drive" or "smash" pa ko! hehe. Pinagpawisan pa ko nyan take note! haha. I think its an awesome way to exercise. o__o now I want an Xbox Kinect in my home. 

 LOL. Yes that's me "calibrating" for the table tennis game. Super fun coz I WON! BWAHAHAHA! 11 - 7 ang score. YAY! :)

Have a photo taken with Mike Wazowski! 

WELCOME TO THE SCHOOL OF RAWR!!!

If you are into music, then the third gaming station called School of Rawr, is perfect for you.  Amp up the volume and explore your musical prowess with Guitar Hero. Compete for the highest score and earn bragging rights as Monsters University’s primo rock star.

 

Its shopgirl Jen's SOFIA on the drums! :)

And that's me messing up GUITAR HERO. LOL! Grabe all I did was LAUGH so hard and pathetically tried to "play" the guitar in sync with the blinking buttons on the screen. LOL. 

Yes sorry naman. Super fail. I really am not musically inclined - especially with instruments.

Please don't ask me my score. Its not worth mentioning. HAHAHA!

WELCOME TO MONSTER 101!

Want a more pensive, subdued setting?  Train your brain with Twinoo at Monster 101, the fair’s fourth gaming booth.  Sit back, and let logic and art come together in this classroom-type station.  Put those thinking caps on and show everybody why it’s cool to be a nerd. 

 I'm a bit competitive by nature but this is Math AND Arts. 

A game where you have to use both mental powers at the same time. KALOKA! But fun! :)

 

Pahinga muna! hehe. A moment when the TEACHER became a STUDENT. Hehe.

(You do know that I'm a teacher right? Hence the "sensei" on my handle? lol)

Of course besides these areas, there are other cool areas to check out like the 

FREEDOM WALL where you can post a note there. 

 I <3 GIORDANO! Monsters University ROX! Yep that's my note. :)

ALSO, they have a face and body paint area. SUPER COOL! You can have some of the characters from Monsters University painted on you or some other cute and cool stuff.

Fellow blogger Marj had Boo painted on her face. CUTE!

Well me of course I had a PURPLE BUTTERFLY painted on my arm. 

Super cute noh? hihihi!

Me and Sofi showing off our arm tats! (Hello Kitty for Sofi!) Chos! Hehehe!
