The month of October marks Sophie Paris’ 10th Anniversary in the country. To celebrate this milestone, they prepared an event worthy of being the biggest and grandest event of the year, held at the Harbor Garden Tent, Sofitel Philippine Plaza. To those who don’t know, Sophie Paris is a French-owned enterprise for accessories and renowned direct selling business.

Inspired by a sexy Brazilian Samba theme, Danca, foreign word for ‘dance’, is a sure jam-packed choreography of grooves and moves with swift transitions and strikes perfect to illustrate those ten fruitful and challenging years of Sophie Paris. Everything was in theme, a full splash of a vibrant Brazilian culture hits the music down to the fashion and style motif.

On that note, a perfect match to keep the night in spectacle is Magic 89.9 Radio DJ at Boys Night Out and TV host, Sam YG and well-known TV personality and showbiz news host, Cesca Litton.

A lot of bigwigs were present at the event, including, Sophie Paris Founder Bruno Hasson, among others. Also present is the beautiful Isabelle Daza, who happens to be the brand’s bag endorser. The bulk of the program actually centered on a beauty pageant, which was also judged by Ms. Daza.

I’m at the media table! WOOOHH. It’s an entirely different elation than from seeing Blogger written there, feels so much more legit now. teehee. :)

Excuse my haggard but made-up face, eyebags. O.O

And oh, i forgot to mention, there were actually booths outside the tent, showcasing the brand’s latest bag designs, makeup line, and perfume. This booth was also outside, too bad I wasn’t able to get any of the pretty looking candy. boo.

Presenting, the menu for the night, yes, food! yummy food!

I would have liked this dish better if only my fish wasn’t overcooked, :( too crumbly for my taste.

The VVIP table was just a few steps away from my table, and guess who was sitting there?

Isabelle! haha. At the time I took this photo, I didn’t know she was going on stage, so I used up all of my ninja powers to get a decent photo of her. LOL.

But lo and behold, she went up on stage to present the awards, more photo opportunities for me!

They won best dressed! Aren’t they cute in their over the top outfits?

Presenting, the winners of the pageant, :)

Capping the night with ten stars entertainment in dancing and hyped up music are G- Force and DJ Elmer Dado and Gruppo Tribale, respectively.

Thank you Carizza for the invite! :)

This event definitely deserves a perfect ten, from the food, to the production numbers, and the raffle prizes, everything was just amazing! Congratulations again Sophie Paris! Thank you for a wonderful night!
