Everyone can now directly contribute in the ecological-sustainability initiatives of the World Wide Fund for Nature Philippines thru participating in the Individual Donor Programme which encourages people to funnel their finances in vital and urgent causes such as conservation.

These donations are directed in good use as it can support conservation projects in key sites across the Philippines, promote clean sources of renewable energy, prepare seaborne communities in facing worsening climate change impacts, and educate the youth through environmental education drives.

Dockers Signature On-The-Go Khaki

Stretch: for looking dressed to impress

TV host Luis Manzano loves the Signature On-The-Go Khaki Stretch because of its straight-ahead style with a straight fit, flat-front, and moisture-wicking technology.

With new technologies and trends, professionals are more competitive than ever and changes in the workplace are necessary. For professionals nowadays, multi-tasking and restrictive deadlines just won’t hack it; there must be work-play balance, too.

To attain this, professionals now are inclined towards collaboration and creating a positive and friendly corporate environment wherein employees have reduced work stress that, in turn, results in diminished absenteeism.

On the other hand, there are work-related matters that are also affected by the changing times. The corporate dress code is one. These days, employees are increasingly seen donning outfits that they’d wear at a typical night out, something that was not ideal or allowed before. While workforce nowadays may be averse to donning traditional office attires, must they totally disregard propriety and decorum when dressing up for work?

Dockers Signature On-The-Go Khaki Stretch pants is Luis Manzano's go-to collection when he wants to look smart.

While corporate fashion is in a constant state of flux, there is one thing that career counselors assert should never change: dressing for success.

You may chuck your wooly slacks or linen pants for more comfortable ensembles, but you still have to show up at work looking dressed to take charge. This gives you an aura of respectability among peers that, in turn, will make superiors and clients take notice.
