As mentioned in my previous post, I’m here to report my latest purchases from Promod. After the fastest recorded time I’ve ever shopped (under an hour!) to date, I’ve managed to bag two (2) pieces plus a little something extra from one store and don’t forget that I did shop at Warehouse right before that.

One is a Cropped Cord Trouser.

Aside from the cord material, I’m loving the little details that make up the entire thing. From pockets, front and back, to belt catchers. It also has the casual turn up hems locked by button tabs.

It comes with 2 thin belts (faux leather and canvas with studs). Don’t you love it when bottoms come with belts? I do. It’s like I’m getting more from the actual purchase even when I do realise that it’s computed into the price. It turnout that I actually brought home 3 Promod pieces rather than just 2. Know what I mean? More fashion pieces is always good in my book.

I’m sort of bummed out when I learned that it’s currently available at a discounted price over on their website. Don’t we have some sort of price protection for consumers like what they have in the US here in Manila? We should. Heh.

Cropped Cord Trouser with belt, Php 2,495.00.

The other purchase is a rather thin frilly fluid Tunic made out of 96% Viscose and 4% Elasthanne materials, which I found on Promod’s Nice Price rack.

To show you just how thin the material is, take a look at this photo.

It’s fantastic for sunny and humid days. It can serve as a simple and solid canvas to showcase pretty accessories like necklaces, earrings, bags or even the pair of shoes you’ll end up wearing for those dressy occasions then it can also be worn for the more casual ones as well.

Frilly Fluid Tunic, Php 995 (original SRP Php 1,495.00).

I have to admit that since I was pressed for time, I didn’t try on these items at the store but when I finally did get the ooportunity to do so at home, I was quite delighted that they fit perfectly and they suit my body type real well. I reckon I really can trust my style instincts now. LOL.
