Purple Mango Goodness

Of course, I’m not talking about some new fruit drink concoction but instead just little something to celebrate the purple fall trend, MANGO style.
Glorious, rich hue of purple on a glossy coat will definitely make it a royal autumn for you. It’ll keep you stylishly warm and deliciously toasty. Heehee.

The NAVY-Black Style Guide

They’re saying that NAVY is making a comeback. They say that it’s the new black. Now, all I can think about is the 90s fashion era when Navy used to be a popular colour alright. Talk about de ja vu. Heh. Question is, are we ready to tackle this trend?
Net-a-porter.com offers a few ideas […]

Fringe Tiered Tunic

With all this talk on trends (hint: here, here, here and here), I can’t help but be reminded of that style inspiration I came across a while back. It’s seen as part of the current trend, slowly getting traction — granted that fashionistas don’t get thoroughly distracted by newer or overly hyped trends — […]

More BOW Talks

Yes. I’m back talking about bows. As I previously mentioned, I’m here to show you where I first noticed this trend. Various fashion designers have taken upon themselves to incorporate an ever feminine accent — BOW. There’s something about it that brings back memories of when you were a little girl. Innocence and youth. However, […]

Summer in Gladiators

If there’s one thing I’ve noticed on the feet of fashionistas these days, it’s the Gladiators. Who can blame them? Summer is one great reason to air out them toes in a trendy fashion.
More talk on shoe trends, huh?

White Summer

Yes. The word’s out. White is the must-have colour for Summer. I found this adorable white dress over at Mango a few weeks ago. It’s perfect worn alone, layered or even as a coverup. Had it not been for the Philippine Fashion Week coverage, I would’ve told you guys about it sooner. It’s not […]

Trend: Bows & Fun Plaid

Yea, there’s a trend on bows. I’ve already seen it used on several designs by various fashion designers. I’ll tell you more about that later. But, yea. I saw this fun dress showcased during Philippine Fashion Week sporting the bow, too. It touches on two trends actually. The other is the plaid or check print.

The Red Tights Trend

Undoubtedly, Agyness Deyn is one of the most popular models in the industry to date. I do love her style, seemingly boyish (must be the hair) look, and her very eclectic taste in clothes. I love how pulls of certain combinations that you wouldn’t normally think of putting together. Know what I mean? I love […]

The Bow Fashion

There’s something about this style that I like. It seems so conservative and old fashioned but it’s so stylish, too. It reminds me of the time when the Victorian blouses were popular — I know some still do — only this time the blouse is more on the preppy side and very versatile looking.
I told […]

Keep An Eye Out: Tie Front Blouses

Goodness. I don’t really like how they called it. Gah.
Had this image saved in my laptop for quite a while now, got this in my inbox a few months back. Mango Newsletter. Love the look of the tie front blouse. I wouldn’t mind owning one.
Just thought, I’d let you guys know. Meanwhile, I’m keeping […]
