FLASH! Flash! Greyhound opens in Manila. One of the hippest and trendiest must-have brands for men and women is coming to our shores. Three weeks ago, I had lunch with the principals and their local partner (retail king Ben Chan) at the Shangri-La's Red.

Everyone (especially me, a Greyhound fan) was excited about the partnership, and of course, bringing the brand to the Philippines.

For those unfamiliar with it, Greyhound is a Thailand-based brand that's been around for more than 20 years. It has built a reputation for churning out modern, chic and sensible clothes, accessories, denims, etc.

Whenever I am in Bangkok I pay homage to three things: spas, cuisine and Greyhound at the Emporium. The store has really awesome pieces that are high in quality and creativity. And the best part of all-the prices are affordable!

So watch out, fashionistas out there, I am sure you will hear more of this brand (and from me) in the months to come. Greyhound opens in March at Greenbelt 4.
