FASHIONISTA: Bum Holds Fashion Show With Cosplay as Theme

Local clothing brand BUM brings the Cosplay trend to the fore with a one-of-a-kind fashion show at the SM Mall of Asia. If you have a story to tell, don’t keep it to yourself. Flaunt and let the world know through fashion.

This has been the youth’s battle-cry these days. Not only are they daring, wearing their colors on their sleeves proudly, they are pushing the envelope when it comes to dressing up, as well.

Even the term “costume play” or “cosplay”, which is the act of dressing up as a fictional character inspired from an anime TV series, or a character they idolized, has found its way into the youth’s wardrobe. Cosplay is no longer a style but it has become a “trend” that is normally seen and worn on the streets.

HEALTHY LYF: Protect Your Kids at Home with Filtrete

Homeowners might find it surprising that indoor air can sometimes be worse than outdoor air. According to the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (U.S EPA), the air we breathe inside our homes can be two to five times worse than air outdoors. This stunning discovery is identified as posing an even greater risk to our health as most people spend 90% of their times indoors. Particles such as pollen, mold spores, dust mites, and other allergens, visible or not, carry viruses and bacteria that may harm us and our family’s health. 

To make things even more surprising, some of the most widely-used cleaning methods, such as sweeping and vacuuming, can even increase the circulation of such particles. For moms, protecting the health and safety of their children is their primary concern. Even when they clean the house using the latest cleaning tools and equipments and having the best air quality would not undermine the existence of these dangerous microscopic things.

In order to reduce the amount of disease-carrying airborne particles, it is essential to use an air filter that can effectively combat some of the most pervasive airborne particles. Filtrete™ Home Filtration Products offer the most effective and trusted air filtering products in various sizes that can cover a wide range of filtration levels for those with or without forced air heating or cooling systems.
