The year 2011 saw the evolution of Multiply from a social networking site to the Philippines’ biggest online shopping destination with over 100,000 on-line shops across 16 categories such as fashion, gadgets and mom and baby products, to name a few. Aside from opening its virtual doors to digital shoppers, Multiply has also become a choice platform for technoprenuers looking at starting their businesses. With the enormous amount of support it has been receiving in the country, Multiply also opened its first office in the Philippines earlier this year as a testament of its commitment to the market.

To celebrate its amazing year thus far, Multiply will be throwing a party the best way it knows how: a first-of-its-kind shopping party that will bring to life the unique online shopping experience that only Multiply can offer. This by-invitation-only event will bring to life some of Multiply’s top online shops.

The Multiply shopping party will also showcase the newly revamped Multiply interface that conveniently features the latest shopping finds, best sellers and featured sellers. New enhancements were made specifically to make online shopping at Multiply easier, more secure, and more fun.

Guests will also be treated to a fashion show that will showcase pieces from Multiply shops. Live performances will also amp the festivities with music from Pinoy rock band Techy Romantics and a performance by DJ Mars Miranda.

To make it even more exciting, guests will be given special cards to share items and shops that catch their fancy during the event to their Facebook friends. They’ll be able to “Like” the items at the party just by swiping these cards at the terminals where the items are showcased. Multiply is the first in the Philippines to use a technology to enable people to share real-world experiences with friends via Facebook.

People can also like Facebook.com/shopatmultiply or follow twitter.com/shopatmultiply on Twitter for more information on the event and for ticket giveaways.

The event is co-presented by Sun Cellular who will be giving away great raffle prizes and tokens for the guests and BDO who will be the on-ground payment facility for the event. Special thanks goes to David’s Salon who will be giving free styling tips for the night.

Just before the Singapore SingTel Grand Prix, Johnnie Walker unveiled the most elusive velvet rope to a world of glamour and exclusivity aptly called Step Inside the Circuit.

Inspired by a one-of-a-kind Johnnie Walker international campaign, Step Inside the Circuit is an exclusive party series that re-creates the thrill and excitement of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1 Team lifestyle in one of the metro’s premier hotspots.

I really don’t have the right words to describe how fantastic smelling my Amber Lights Laguna Reed Diffuser in White Tea come off like. It’s not only beautiful and gentle but also mildly invigorating, exactly how white tea swings my disposition from cranky to unbelievably calm and serene. I can certainly vouch for its “high quality essential oil” claim because it didn’t trigger my allergic rhynitis and it seeped into my non-air conditioned, 30 square metre room in ten minutes. Highly recommended to give away to friends and keep for your home!

Amber Lights Laguna Reed Diffuser is also available in Day at the Spa (a better version of ZARA Home in my opinion), Citronella, Scotch Pine, and Green Tea & Lemongrass. This gorg product is exclusively available online and from selected bazaars (do follow their Facebook page to be updated with their schedule).

Ringing up my ladies to save the date: 05 July 2011, Araneta Coliseum, 8PM.
