ANOTHER LATE POST.
I know that this post might be considered as an expired one but i'd still like to share it to you.


DLSU students had held this fun fashion competition event last march, I was supposed to join the said event but due to acads and time issues me and my friends wasn't able to participate. Anyway, I was with my friend Kido, who's nice enough to help me get a cab since I got a bit tipsy in the party. LOL I didn't know that Boracay Rum can be something.


On to fashion, so the said event was a fashion crew competition on which crew would be able to create the most outstanding avant garde piece. So each crew are composed of a stylist, a photographer, a hair stylist, a model, and make-up artist.


ENTRIES:

This for me is the most HAUTE COUTURE of all the entries managing all the  frills and ruffles into one ensemble is magnificent, It's silhouette reminds me a lot of Alexander McQueen.

A creation by the Posh Renz Pangilinan, and art directed by the wonderful Nicole Santos. This unique piece was made by luminous fabrics and reflectors used in motorcycling, a personal favorite of mine.

This amazing creation was made by a friend of mine NJ and his team. This was actually my favorite of the bunch.

With its concept using recyclable materials and it's wonderful photos, this fab fad won the competition

THE AFTER PARTY:

For every successful fashion show an after party is a must. ;)

Summer Chic: I LOVE KOI SUMMER FASHION SHOW

Another Fashion Adventure with Ms. Kristin C

I LOVE KOI, the posh's fave luxe swimwear, had held it's summer fashion show showcasing it's newest swimwear and Luxe wear at the Privé Luxury Club in The Fort, Taguig City. Of course with me is Ms. Kristin as always, we've been having a Dora and Boots relationship nowadays; anyway, thanks Kristin for letting me tag along. Sorry if there's a scarcity of visuals here since cameras weren't allowed inside the establishment, and kinda had a dope moment not taking photo before getting in LOL.

There are two reasons why I went to see the show, one was to see what new things I LOVE KOI had in stored for the fashion peeps, and the other one was to witness a blogger-star studded event. Design collaborations with The Plump Pinay, Patricia Prieto, and Tricia Gosingtian were one of the highlights of the night; their designs embodies their style as how the Fashown World knows them.

(Main Collection)

The designs ranged from cute to phenomenal, an indication that I LOVE KOI can capture a wide range of those Fashionista Summerista girls. So for those girls that are planning for a last minute summer extravanganza try checking out I LOVE KOI.

LOOKBOOK:

My homage to Philippine Summer, wearing a blazer that I've designed myself.

Donning my favorite Blazer with a distressed old white shirt a custom-made blue shorts with my summer themed fedora and espadrilles from Hawk, I was unable to get inside the venue. But luckily Ms. K's place is nearby; so I've put on a pair of her white wide leg pants, that fitted me perfectly, and hopped on a cab back to Prive. (didn't able to get a photo of the ensemble though)

Ms. K's outfit, wearing her high-society summer look with her wedges from Parisian, and dress from Bossini.

The Hidden Treasures of Makati: Fashion Haven Chronicles

Hi Guys! here's an update to my agenda on my last blog "Plans.for.today.4/16/2012".

So last April 16th I went to Makati with my friend and co-blogger Kristin, I have had always admire her clothes having these vintage and frilly feel which I have thought to be very expensive. Little did I know that Ms. Kristin here has a secret a fashion haven kept inside the Makati's concrete jungle.

(TRUMPETS SINGS!) Makati Cinema Square. Yes, for all those young fashionista girls and guys out there who lack a little moolah should check this out.

A map to Makati Cinema Square

Inside the said establishments are series of thrift stores where you could get hundreds of FASHOWN pieces that you could mix and match to your liking. Tank Tops, Pants, Shorts, Skirt, Blouse, Polos, Shirts, Blazers, Coats, Shoes, Bags, name it and they have it there. (except for accessories though)

There are two stores that caught me eye and my pocket, one is Mohara, and the other one is unnamed. (there were no signage or any names posted) Mohara is a bit more expensive than the other one, but you'll surely drown with what she has to offer; while the other shop was smaller, but in my opinion, is more fashion.

You guys are probably curious about the price range... Well, Mohara's price range goes to 50php to 260php, while unnnamed store goes to 20php to 700php (for complicated trenches shipped from other countries). With my 600php that time I was able to get 2 blazers for 50php each, a denim jacket for 50, a hippie jacket for 150, a summer trench for 290, and 4 tops for 100php only. In summary 9 clothes for 600php ONLY.

Check it out yourselves guys I'm sure you'll definitely enjoy the experience.
