In My Birthday Suit

Although customary, a feature would’ve been in line after the dress is finished and not while it’s still in the creation process. However, in my excitement with how things turning out, let me give you folks a quick look at the dress I had let Kaye Olfindo design for me.
I love having clothes esp made for me. I probably got this from my mum who, as I was growing up, would have most of her clothes made by a local modista or seamstress/dressmaker. Of course, I got a taste of …

Kaye Olfindo Bridal Collection Plus A Contest

I just have to say this (again), the clip’s awesome! Love the concept. Love the cinematography. I even love the hair! Of course, how can I possibly miss it, I love the gown! I absolutely hearted the rosette appliques and the fluid skirt. Very romantic.
Personally, I think fashion designers should look into doing this sort of thing for their collections. It gives us a better idea of how their creations will look like when worn in real life. You can admire how details, cuts and drapes highlight frame, length and …

Taking on Indie Fashion

Indie Fashion is not a fad. It has its own world that’s worth exploring.

For an upcoming series, I’m looking into getting in touch with local Indie fashion designers.
Are you one of them?
If you design and make clothes, bags, accessories or anything relating to fashion and style, then, yes, you’re one of them. Stating the obvious, Indie is short for independent. It means you’re mostly operating “under the radar” and only have viral marketing to your advantage. You may or may not have established a brand but still manage to put up shop virtually or physically so the rest of us can enjoy your …

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 as I love the wood, metal, glass and shell “raindrops”, I was hoping to find a (Swarovski-type) crystal raindrop, too. Not flat circle shaped but one that resembles a true raindrop, know what I mean?

Told you I’m going to show you what was inside the bag. It’s a Daniella De Corsie dress. Yes, she’s one of the local designers whose works are available at F*ART. I wore it to last night’s NOKIA Soul of the Night Event at the Embassy Superclub. I’ll tell you guys more about it on a later post. I’m still compiling photos. Wouldn’t it be better if things were visual? Anyway, I reckon I drank too much champagne and halfway through a 160-peso dry martini before I called it a …

Last night was a bit of a surprise for me. I never expected I’d enjoy myself the way I did. I’m glad I did push through with my plans of checking out the Market Night at Mag:net CafĂ© in Bonifacio High Street because of a few good things that transpired, which, of course, I’m planning to share.
