Many of us found ourselves snacking away on tikoy and enjoying the free day from work that the Chinese New Year brought. Some of us might have even checked out our horoscopes for the year to prepare for both the good and the bad luck headed our way.
While we were busy doing that, our local celebrities were already out creating their own luck. Taking advantage of the long weekend and the festive mood, they went ahead and spent the start of the new year with some cool vibes and good friends. Let’s see just exactly how, so maybe next year, we won’t be watching the Super Bowl halftime performance on loop.
Isabelle Daza
The start of the Year of the Fire Monkey also happened to be the birthday of Belle’s close friend and stylist Liz Uy. The simple dinner brought together Liz’s other equally stylish friends like Anne Curtis, Erwan Heussaff, and Raymond Gutierrez which proves that having good company around is best on any day of the year.

Our dream shopping buddy enjoyed a day out in the sun as she checked in at The Lind in Boracay. We guess looking like a tanned goddess is a priority, especially when you want to conquer the coming days.

True to what she told us previously, Iza loves to chill at The Farm at San Benito. Given the three-day getaway, she stole away from the city immediately and loaded up on her favorite healthy fixes. Makes you regret giving in to the extra serving of tikoy, right?
Heart Evangelista
Got my #HMCNY #HMCNY2016 #HMphilippines bag charms ready for #chinesenewyear ❤️❤️❤️❤️ A photo posted by Love Marie Ongpauco Escudero (@iamhearte) on Feb 7, 2016 at 6:49pm PST
Heart loaded up on lucky charms for her bags this year. However, looks like luck is already on her side with her current exhibit at the Ayala Museum in full swing. Plus, she’s been dropping hints about her latest collab with local cosmetics brand Happy Skin. Hustle hard, Heart!
Solenn Heussaff
Ever the hard worker, Solenn didn’t seem to remember that it was a holiday. She just took time out to post a photo of her taping in Bukidnon. You go, Sos!
Pia Wurtzbach
Super Bowl hangover 🏈 Loved being a special correspondent with @insideedition ❤️ Thank you for inviting me to this experience of a lifetime Unforgettable! #MissUniverse #MissUniverso #ConfidentlyBeautiful A photo posted by Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach (@piawurtzbach) on Feb 8, 2016 at 12:48pm PST
Our reigning Miss Universe was out to represent yesterday. And it was quite a treat for her as she got to be the special correspondent for Inside Edition at the Super Bowl 50. And more importantly, did our own Queen meet Queen B? We need answers!
Janina Manipol
As the unofficial president of The Love Club, Janina seemed to be taking a chill moment at the City of Dreams Manila. Or was it just another of their weekly meetings?
Gretchen Barretto

Always one to go for a statement, Gretchen donned a cheongsam and dined with her family for Chinese New Year. It pays to stick to tradition, after all.
Sofia Andres
While everyone was stuffing their faces with non-stop lauriats from the new year feast, Sofia clocked in some hours to work out at Il Centro Fitness. Now that’s what you call dedication.
Ruffa Gutierrez
Productive, creative meeting with VP of NBC UNIVERSAL ASIA, Scott McKenzie. 🎥♥️📺🎬 @mondgutierrez @annabelleramaig @teamgutierrez A photo posted by Ruffa Gutierrez (@iloveruffag) on Feb 8, 2016 at 5:15am PST
