Posted in Stylish Observations, Shoes!, Fashion News, Philippine Fashion

In a conversation I had a few days ago, a sentiment on the subject of shoes was raised. She had voiced an apparent disdain on the makes of available shoes lately. Yes, some still prefer to own shoes that can last at least a couple years before they throw it away. And yes, a lot […]

The creations of Patrick Galang were showcased during Day 2 of the 2008 Philippine Fashion Week the New Generation Collection last Tuesday, 27 May 2008.

I found this video clip of a portion of his show on YouTube. Its quality isn’t so great but I guess it’s a way for us to see what went on, […]

The creations of Anna Leah Salvador were showcased during Day 2 of the 2008 Philippine Fashion Week the New Generation Collection last Tuesday, 27 May 2008.

A very black and white set. Lots of LBD ideas. There were a couple of repeats, though. That’s a no-no in doing a show. I wish they kept the top […]

I’ve finally gotten around to uploading the last batch of the photos I took during the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Philippine Fashion Week. Tis a tedious task, I tell ‘ya. Juggling between processing photos and writing them posts. And then there is seeing fabulous photos of the fashion show taken by other local photographers […]

I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through her Beach Bound - Summer 2008 Collection but with the grey, overcast skies and all the wet weather we’re having lately, I was drawn to her Raindrops more.
Obviously, the Raindrops I’m referring to are the necklaces on the photo. These are part of older collection (June 2007). As much […]

Pictured […]

Posted in Outfits, Manila Street Fashion, Philippine Fashion

I finally got to wear the dress I bought from Irene’s Closet when I attended an event last week. The creations of Irene Pineda has always been very unique and individual. The designs are fun and very experimental.
Though I’m not really the sort who’d wear colourful items, Summer is the season (and reason) to wear […]
