Glam-o-moms unite for Smart Parenting's "All about school age kids" workshop!

It's that very special time again, when moms unite to break the internet with social media posts with the hashtag #SPMomWorkshops ! I will be forever be thankful to the Summit Media team (Smart Parenting, Good Housekeeping & Yummy) for their trust! This time, I get to host the Smart Parenting Mom Workshops: All About School-age kids! 
Moms just wanna have fun! My favourite line when it comes to mommyhood is this: "A mother can take the place of any other, but nobody can take the place of a mother." I am proud to say that I am very much my son's father as I am his mother. I am also his playmate, teacher, best friend, nurse, travel buddy and more (including spoiler, which I've been struggling to fix for years now). I thank God every moment with endowing me with so much talent and blessings. I pray He grants my handsome, kind-hearted (albeit still very shy) boy the same if not more blessings as he lives his beautiful life and grows into the man that God has intended for Him to be. I pray no matter what path he chooses, I am able to inculcate humility, wisdom and perseverance in him and most importantly - that Jesus Christ directs His path, and he succeeds in all his hopes and endeavours. 
I also had the honor of emceeing the very first Smart Parenting workshop about babies and toddlers. Read back about it by following this link: Marylaine Viernes: Smart Parenting's All About Toddlers event
This truly empowering and humbling parenting workshop focused on fostering healthy habits ranging from creativity, resourcefulness when it comes to school work and financial literacy...

Ready, set, SALE! Hosting & Shopping becomes my sport at Alabang Town Center's Red Bucket Sale!

I am a champion for everyone wins at the Paint the Town Red Sale, where I literally got to paint the 'Town' red thanks to the Alabang Town Center who trusted with their much-awaited, highly-attended main event, the Red Bucket Sale! Behold, the fashion stadium! Your only weapons? Fashion smarts and that coveted red bucket! 
This mall is very special to me for I grew up in Alabang Hills, and so before I get any more nostalgic, let me tell you why the Alabang Town Center's Red Bucket Sale, is extra special for me: It's because not only is the ATC one of my most favorite malls, but also because I got to share hosting duties with me lovely sister, Natalie Viernes
 My sis and I briefing the ladies (and gents) who came ready to shop 'til they dropped... then fell in line again. It's Shop. Drop. Repeat! 15 minutes on the clock... 
BUCKET ako napagod? Why did I get exhausted? Certainly not from hosting, talking non-stop or pushing the shoppers but because I too was blessed to have my own red bucket and shop away; and boy, was it so hard! So easy when I am the one just counting down the clock and giving the shoppers a pep talk, but it's so different when you're inside the Red Bucket Fashion arena! Check out my video below as I huffed, puffed and tried to squeeze in my items into my very own red bucket. I got a good workout! See, shopping is truly a sport! 
There were so many waves so here's another Day 2 video of me conditioning the Red Bucket athletes for the most exciting, exhilarating fashion ride this year: 
And this time... we get to walk back to Day 1... here I am opening this splendid day! RED-y, set, go!!! 
Can't get enough of this red-hot fashion action! Check out this video below too... If only I can host and shop every single day... 
And of course, events won't be complete without my cattle call! Here I am gladly doing some V.O.s before passing on the microphone torch to my sister for the rest of the afternoon waves!
It was such a memorable day! Here I am on the TOP Spot! I got to shop 7,000 pesos worth of items! Sweeeeet!!! We all can get used to this clothes buffet sport! Even the gentlemen who availed tickets had tons of fun too! 
Simply a RED-ical experience! Over 2,000 clothing items replenished after every run... 60 shoppers per wave... and only 15 minutes to full your bucket to the brim. Only this game puts your shopping, choosing, folding and stuffing skills to the test! 
 Ta-ta... Shop more I gotta!!!
