The Queen of Creative Collaborations revealed her five favorite Chinese New Year traditions.
First on her list is, of course, about fashion.
Heart believes that wearing red on Chinese New Year means good luck.
The Kapuso fashionista wears the lucky color up to her accessories and even undergarments!
As a little girl, she used to wear the traditional Chinese dress.
Heart never forgets to give out angpaos every Chinese New Year.
Angpao is a red envelope with money that is traditionally given every Chinese New Year.
In her own words, “Siksik, liglig na naman ang tikoy sa ref!”
Tikoy or Nian gao is a sweet cake made of glutinous rice flour. It is usually given out as gifts on days leading up to Chinese New Year.
The Kapuso actress makes it a tradition to set a dinner with her loved ones every Chinese New Year.
Despite her busy schedule, she always saves time for her family on any occasions.
Dinner with the whole family is not solely practiced during Chinese New Year, it is also a Filipino tradition.
These two lovebirds prove that an intimate dinner is just as good as with the whole family.
Last on Heart's list is to take lots and lots of pictures every Chinese New Year.
This picture of young Heart Evangelista holding a camera predicted her love for photography and vlogging.
This Filipina-Chinese surely knows how to pose for a glamorous photograph!
