thrifted black dress with macrame back detail, bikini top from Metro, assorted accessories from Manalili, Shoesone cutout wedge booties, Gucci belt and "behaviour" bag (from Oj Hofer) One more day of preparation to go before hitting Manila for what could be the biggest fashion event of my life so far, and I am still not packed in the least bit. Egad. Clothes are...
I'm leaving for Manila in a couple of days and I'm just excited senseless for this short but incredible trip. My good friend/collaborator Yves will be working as chief stylist for Cebuano design virtuoso Oj Hofer and his highly anticipated Angkorian Aether Holiday 2011-2012 show at the Makati Shangri-la. Since I desperately wanted a short vacation and to learn more, I volunteered to...
Topshop purple tank with macrame weave detail, vintage wide belt, thrifted electric pleat skirt, Figliarina shoes True story: I've had this skirt for so long after one of the rare times i got to go thrift hunting with fellow Cebuano bloggers Phil and Yapi (we have to do it again soon, loves!).

I'm really glad to be in the company of insanely talented and equally crazy friends who enjoy stepping out of the box every now and then. If we're bored, boom, we sit down together and discuss a project to do and just play around with whatever experimental idea we can come up with. It's cool because we agree with what kind of look...
