If you have been following me on Twitter, instagram or my blog you must already know by now that I am a huge fan of the “Cardizon’s” chicks! I mean these women are simply sensational! I adore them deeply and I am so blessed to be able to call them friends.
In many ways we have so many things in common. We work with our families and we love fashion, food, travelling and did I mention FASHION? LOL! Well I got invited to lunch recently to meet Janina Dizon-Hoschka’s new baby called TATE. Named after her son, she introduced to a few of her friends the most delicious clutch that would make any lover of GOOD fashion heart palpitate!
I am obsessed with clutches now and this one is one of those MUST’S!!!!! Janina just has this great talent to make something so beautiful and so functional at the same time. There were several samples on display that day amidst the most gorgeous terrariums that Janina made all by herself! I was lusting for both but since I can’t imagine myself wearing a clutch less I look like an extra for a 70′s B-movie film ala Agent X-44 I deferred to the the women to take first dibs at the clutch. Although…..Nix might be able to pull it off?!!!!

AWWWWW…… Sat beside Pauline and she showed me a photo of my godson Max!!!!! Such a cutie patootie!!!!
The beauty of this clutch is the new finish of the shagreen which has this lustre to it. It was really shimmering! Much like the diamond that is attached to the clutch making each piece extra special! The Tate will be available in Janina’s stores very very soon so don’t wait too long as I have a feeling this one will sell out really fast.
During the lunch we were treated to a lovely video presentation which I am going to attach to this entry. I loved how fresh and young it looked and I was so happy that you will all get to see the house where the “Cardizon’s’ grew up as the house is really beautiful!
Adding to the fun and yum to the lunch was the beautiful food of Peninsula’s Old Manila! I really love this place as it’s always so good. It was the last few days of the Australian food festival and we were all treated to a sumptuous lunch of lamb, fish and an array of desserts that blew not only my mind but my diet as well! LOL! It was all worth it!
Congratulations to Janina! I am so happy and proud of you! I am also deeply thankful that even if I did not go home with TATE I got to take home one Janina’s Terrariums! YAAAY!!!!!! Now…Seriously…..get the TATE now! It will make not only your wardrobe complete but make you super ready for 2013 FASHION!!!!! See the TATE in these images!
The TATE Clutch will be available at JANINE for Jul Dizon at the Peninsula Hotel, Jul B. Dizon Jewellery at the EDSA Shang-ri La Hotel and CURA V at the Powerplant Mall starting February 8, 2013.
