Since she made her mark on Philippine TV in the ‘90s, TV host and producer, entrepreneur, blogger, and UNICEF Special Advocate Daphne Oseña-Paez has been the epitome of grace and class. In the words of retail magnate Ben Chan, she is “always well-dressed, well-spoken, and known for her impeccable taste.” Now, Daphne opens up to her followers with a book that reveals what really makes her life an elegant, and beautiful one.

Out now from Summit Books is Chic: Tips on Life, Style, and Work, where Daphne Oseña-Paez reveals the lessons she has learned in life, love, design, style, work, and more to encourage readers to pursue a life well-lived, just as she has.



Daphne has been sharing stories about art and design, family and home, dreams and inspirations, and other topics close to her heart through her blog Daphne.ph, and Chic allows her to give the same to her readers in a form that they can hold in their hands and flip through for inspiration.

Besides recounting her personal experiences and revealing her valuable insights, Chic also lets readers in on Daphne’s conversations with some of her mentors and inspirations. Entrepreneur and Bench founder Ben Chan, fashion entrepreneur Tina Maristela Ocampo, actress and public servant Lucy Torres-Gomez, furniture designer Kenneth Cobonpue, chef Tonyboy Escalante, fashion designer Katherine Cheng, and retail creative director Sabrina Uy all reveal enlightening truths about their craft and impart helpful lessons of their own.



With its sensible, practical pieces accompanied by crisp, stylish visuals, Chic is a reflection of Daphne's personality, and a guide to imbibing that unmistakable grace that she has always exuded.

Chic: Tips on Life, Style, and Work is now available exclusively in National Book Store branches nationwide for P395.
