The DBS Safari Christmas 2018 has finally wrapped up after months of preparation last December 1st, 2018 at the Grand Menseng Hotel. Everyone from Davao Bloggers Society Family, walk-ins and brand representatives/sponsors had a great and amazingly wild night! It was filled with joy, laughter, and new fun memories.
Best Dressed Female and Male
Everyone showed off their Safari outfits and neither one of the attendees missed their chance to showcase their creativity and unleash the fashionista in them! Hailed as the Best Dressed Male of the night was Jeff Daryl Sison. Cramming in the last minute of preparation for his outfit but it didn’t stop him from getting the spotlight! Of course, Pau Ruta also flaunted her excellent make-up skills as she transformed into a wild leopard and this hailed her as the Best Dressed Female!
