It was a banana-vanilla cream dream as guests willingly obliged to the two parties’ dress code: yellow for Absolut Mango and white for Samsung. Everyone came looking sleek and stylish. Cuts were kept simple yet classic. Bright yellow was the choice of shade for the Absolut Mango Launch. Everyone looked absolutely ripe for the picking. The girls wore minimal accessories, just enough to complement the color and style of their outfits. The ladies from Samsung’s Mythical Affair looked heavenly in their white, crisp and classic outfits with a few prints here and there. Most of the ladies also wore their hair down, giving them a very ethereal look.
Absolut just gave Filipinos another reason to enjoy mangoes: served in our drinks. Absolut Mango treated guests with overflowing fruity goodness plus awesome music. The perfect way to celebrate mid-week.
From absolute fruity goodness we come to an out-of-this-world experience, the “Mythical Affair with Samsung Soul.” Fairies, unicorns and minotaurs greeted the guests as they entered the Rigodon Ballroom of the Peninsula Manila. Samsung brought to life what guests thought was impossible. The Samsung Soul cellular phone came to life with its brushed titanium body measuring only 12.9 mm plus all the features you need and more. It is definitely a perfect phone for people with on-the-go lifestyles.
