Tops 2 Bottoms

Styling with Local Flavour: Folded & Hung, Schu

by Sasha Manuel on June 1st, 2007

I did a little styling activity over at Style Manila, a Philippine fashion blog, which I also author. It was inspired by my meanderings on the web (as usual :lol: ), esp when I checked out the website of a local fashion brand, Folded & Hung.

I’ve been a fan of their clothes since they came into the market, in fact, I own a black sheer top with beaded and embroidered floral accents and a short denim skirt (which I made shorter, hehe), on top of the recent purchases when I went shopping during the Christmas season last year. :mrgreen:

Like I said on that post,

I picked out a washed out blue sleeveless empire v-neck blouse with a printed tie belt accent for the top, and a pleated seam, cuffed shorts with a tie-knot hem accent for the bottoms, from their collection.

This loose top and shorts look is not entirely new since, apart from the fact that I’ve seen women wearing the combo back in the early 2006 when I was in Australia, it also is becoming quite popular here in Manila. I’ve seen quite a number of women sporting variants of the look, either they’re just out shopping or they’re out clubbing.

With this combination, I opted for a pair of low-heeled stiletto pumps from Schu. It’s to achieve a not too dressy and not too casual ensemble, suitable for this season.

More info on the items, i.e. prices and such, can be found in that post, Styling Activity: Folded & Hung, Schu.

So what do you think? :)
