Pumps, Patents, Flats | Tuesday, January 30th, 2007
Posted in Fashion Forecast, Shoes!, Style Manila

Tis a flat season.
Season of patents perhaps?
How about the pump is back in style?
Shoes are a big thing in my fashion life. I love them. Ha. From boots to sandals then flip flops to stilletos, I own, at least, three pairs for each (and the latter at least five! LOL).
Now is the time […]

Style Sighting | The Slogan Tee & Plaid Kilt Outfit | Sunday, January 28th, 2007
Posted in Stylish Observations, Manila Street Fashion

Her name’s Knox. And she was wearing an outfit that consisted of a red slogan tee with a red, black and white plaid kilt-inspired short skirt. It was finished off with a pair of white sneakers (with black socks, I think).
I was in Makati City, attended the Blog Parteeh 2007, when I spotted her curly […]

Tiangge Finds | Beige Suede Flats | Thursday, January 25th, 2007
Posted in Shopping Guide, Shoes!, Tiangge Finds

I’m a self-confessed stilleto-addict. I am! However, since I started on my dayjob back in October 2006 — that meant having to take relatively long walks (to and from my building heading the direction of the nearest Starbuck’s) — I had grown fond of wearing flats.
The only pair I own was the one my brother […]

Music Influences Your Fashion | Tuesday, January 16th, 2007
Posted in Style Guide, Style Manila

Music influences fashion and fashion, music.
This thought may still have been left unsaid by many but I say it now because I really believe it’s true. Why do you think music videos are so interesting to watch? Uh, aside from the scantily-clad women shaking their humps and lumps all over the place and all […]

Style Sighting | Cat’s Slogan Shirt | Friday, January 12th, 2007
Posted in Stylish Observations, Manila Street Fashion

Indeed.
Ack. What am I saying? I just might get into trouble with that. Hehehe.
The girl wearing the shirt on the photo is Cat, a friend of Rico. I had a pleasure of meeting her one evening when he and I were WiFi-ing at Starbuck’s in Alabang (the one near Frank Provost). She’s bubbly and warm. […]

How Men Shop In Style | Sunday, January 7th, 2007
Posted in Shopping Guide, MEN, Style Guide, Style Manila

Everyone wants to look good and men are no exception to this. A number of my guy friends have come up to me and asked for style tips and sometimes even dragged me on shopping expeditions. I just don’t see why some men refuse to accept that there’s nothing wrong with making an effort to […]

Defining Style Manila | Friday, January 5th, 2007
Posted in Philippine Fashion, Style Manila

A Year’s Worth of Planning
I have to admit that I didn’t really write anything down. I merely captured mental images in my head and, somehow, tested the ideas on my other fashion blog. Everything I’ve planned for Style Manila are all in my head. Oh, god — that came out wrong. LOL.
It took me a […]

A Word from your Fashion Blogger | Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007
Posted in Announcements, Style Manila

Hi, I’m Sasha and I’ve been in this blogging business for more than two years now. I’m so glad to finally launch this localised fashion blog I’ve been wanting to start since I came out with my first fashion blog, Tops 2 Bottoms, back in 2005. That blog’s now with b5media.
I had envisioned Tops 2 […]

The Spotlight is on Style Manila | Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007
Posted in Announcements, Philippine Fashion, Style Manila

Style Manila
My ultimate goal is not to tell the Philippine society to dress the same way but for them to find a way to express their individuality through fashion that can distinctly define the concept of Style Manila.
I believe that Philippine Fashion is rich in flavour. From the numerous and notable fashion designers and […]
