Happy Socks brings happiness through #100HappyActs

Would you believe that socks can bring so much joy? (Excuse me, but plain and boring socks are excluded) Socks lovers will definitely say yes to that. Imagine how socks can bring simple happiness especially to us ladies who are absolutely a fashion fan. I bet you have a lot of ideas in your mind as to how your socks can be you happiness buddy. Whether the lazy you just want to stay in your room the whole day and munch into your guilty pleasure snacks while reading your favorite book or the active you can’t wait to go outside and explore the world, you can wear your fashionable socks which will add spice to your style.

I was one of the guests who were thrilled by “Welcome to Happiness!” sign that welcomed us when we entered Staple and Perk Bakery during the Media Launch of Happy Socks Philippines, entitled #100HappyActs.

Happiness was written all over the venue with fun and colorful designs covering every inch of the quaint café. From the walls, crew’s outfits and even to the washroom decors, guests were treated to a day filled with happiness.
It only took us three very simple steps to happiness that day. First, register – because one way of spreading happiness would be staying connected. Second, choosing your pair of Happy Socks – because happiness is a choice (literally, in this case). And third, putting on your pair of Happy Socks – because everyone had to follow the day’s golden rule: “Shoes off, Happy Socks on!”

 It was indeed a day loaded with happiness! We were treated with scrumptious food and great music. We were engaged all throughout, thanks to Play FM DJ, Justin Quirino who hosted the program.

Towards the end of the program, Justin asked everyone to help spread happiness by getting a box each from the Happiness Wall, filled with 100 boxes of Happy Socks. Each box contained 3 items from Happy Socks (either a pair of socks of different sizes or underwear). One item they could keep for themselves, and the other two they must give to a loved one along with doing a random act of kindness for them. Idea starters on how to spread happiness were written on the flaps of each box.

Also joining in on the fun during the launch were Happy Socks Singapore representative Mack Chua, wedding videographer Jason Magbanua, Oly Ruiz and Erron Ocampo of MyMetrophoto, Aze Ryan Ching of COTE Events, Bong Sare of Threelogy, celebrity mom and blogger Rica Peralejo-Bonifacio, Boys Night Out DJ Sam YG, actor and blogger AJ Dee, and makeup artist Jigs Mayuga.
