Preview November 2007 | Preview January-February 2009

Nothing beats Preview! This is Kris Aquino’s take two for the magazine and I have to admit I love it! I’m actually thrilled when stylebible.ph posted the current cover shot but it was until the 2nd week of this month that I got myself a copy. I kinda wonder though why Preview appears constantly late on the mag racks here in Cebu unlike Metro and Mega who find their advance issues way ahead on the mag stores days prior the month end. Hmmmm.. I think team Preview should check on this.

Moving along, I’m delighted to see Ms. K on the front gloss again! She looks so light and fresh in a white dress from JC Buendia. I’m a super fan of Kris Aquino. Her cheeky life and random kataklesahan in live TV fascinates me much apart from we both share same zodiac (Aquarius). Speaking of which I’m gonna be celebrating my birthday next week. Yey! Winner! In this issue Kris talks about Hatha yoga as a piece of her crusade for better health, growth and maturity. She talks how Preview ladies (Pauline Juan and Liz Uy) influenced her to wearing closed shoes and considering her Fendi pumps her all-time favorite. Also, Pauline Juan writes about crisis management in fashion and taking on the term “frugalista” for budget-fashionista out there. This issue is indeed a fresh start for the Ox year. Preview pops much with their free trend report for Spring/Summer 2009. vi-a-v!

Preview Magazine December 2008 issue

Okey everyone! Here goes the cover shot of Preview Magazine December 2008 issue. Now tell me who the covergirl is? Anne Curtis in take three is dat u? Kaye Brosas is tat chu? Girl it’s Rhian Ramos! Gotcha! You see what I’m saying here.. This cover had me do a second look when I saw it fresh on the mag rack. I can’t believe it took me few secs to recognize Rhian. Or probably I’m just getting old and my eyes need a little upgrade. I applaud Preview for coming up another bold cover but I sense quite a max photochopping done there. I’m not against it coz I love being photochopped too. It’s just that my failure to identify Rhian means there’s something odd on the front gloss.. I think.. Or is it just me.. Whatevs! Anyhow, the editorial was ultra luxe in Ferragamo pieces from their 80th anniversary collection. She donned coats from suede sequined to fur collared and a number of dresses posing on top of an XK Jaguar convertible car. Expensiveness! I think Rhian is a model potential. She’s young at 18 and her long legs and strong facial points made the look. But what’s interesting is her philanthropic commitment for Greenpeace and A Better Chance Foundation. Not only she get herself involve into those good-cause orgs but she’s surprisingly open to adoption like Angelina Jolie.. Now that’s my girl! I’ll really look forward to her baby collectibles. Go! Go! Go! vi-a-v!

‘Barrio Fiesta’ heiress Heart Evangelista is on the cover of Preview November 2008 issue. Oh dear she’s just flawless! I was never a fan of hers but she’s an obvious fine-looking rich girl in the local showbiz. I remember seeing her in the mall way before college with no make-up and girl she’s petite and so pretty. High-maintenance and luxurious sweetheart she is..

And going to the cover shot which I find a little interesting with the ‘face-only’ focus trend they did. I haven’t seen much of this from their back issues nevertheless it’s a cute swing from Preview to cover it and once again a job well done to the team. The editorials too are stunning! Heart donned Jun Escario’s cheongsams inspired lace pieces which are immaculate at 25,000 pesosesoses.. Just wow! Additionally, this months issue also features Cebu sizzlers from local designers to fine chow-time restos to hotspots. Excellent combo for this month’s issue. I love Preview Magazine and I love papi Rich! vi-a-v!

Sarah Geronimo on Preview October 2008

Say hello to Sarah Geronimo for Preview October 2008! What do you think? Me? I love it! Major transformation for Sarah G. toting in a Burberry trench coat. This is her first cover on a major glossy and team Preview made it big time for her with a BANG! She looks so different in entirety of the editorials and so sophisticated except the makeover nails which look so obviously unreal. So much for that, when I saw Sarah’s cover it automatically popped-up in my mind the face of Madame Imelda Marcos in her younger years. I see resemblance here. I think so…

Bea Alonzo on Preview September 2008

September 6, 2008 in fashion, preview by bena | 5 comments

I just got a fresh copy of Preview magazine September 2008 issue and I’m honestly not so happy seeing Bea Alonzo on the cover again.. Not that I’m being an anti-Bea here (i do adore her beauty fyi) but seriously, seeing her a number of times on the front gloss of Preview and the rest of our local fashion mags is visually tiring.. Maybe I’m just too insecure to admit that she’s uberly gorgeous than I am and that I’ve always dreamed of taking her spot.. LOL! But haven’t you guys notice that almost every local fashion magazine masks the common faces of our showbiz ladies. Name it: the big guns in Dos and Siete.. They always seem to grace on their covers and define cliché, repeat, or whatever you call it.. Please don’t shoot me with this.. In my opinion, it would be refreshing sometimes to feature local supermodels like Ana Sideco or Ria Bolivar or the ever sophisticated Divine Lee and do glimpse of their private career lives in full circle within those mags, noh? Or probably yours truly Bena gay weerking it in pure queerness on their editorials.. Why not model.com?! LOL! Enough choo-cha-chika and just log on to stylebible.ph. It’s the new online ‘it’ thing for the hardcore and wannabe fashionistas alike.. Hihihi! Yebah! vi-a-v! (photo: stylebible.ph)
