Style Watch: 10 Must Haves
Browsing thru Neiman Marcus…here are the 10 Must Haves this season…
1. Renaissance
- Think lace…think ruffles…think brocade…they are all back! I love lace actually coz It goes well with pearls and I am not called the ”Pearl Lady" for nothing. I’m glad they’re back. Here’s what I found at Neiman Marcus Online. I love this Brocade d’Orsay pumps by Manolo Blahnik…I just wish I could afford one. Haha

2. To-the-knee Boots
- I am not that comfy wearing boots…I’d probably pass on this one. Well, I just have two boots…black and camel…haven’t used them in years…last time I wore boots, it was for a fashion show and that’s over a decade na. Oh, no, siguro mga two years ago I wore boots pa pala sa office…tsk, tsk, forgetful…well, that proves Im not much of a boots fan.

3. Embellished Jeans
-I am not a fan of embellished jeans either…I think I’ll pass!
(Chip&Pepper Nirvana Sorority Girl Jeans)
4. Brown & Camel
- Lately I’m into brown and the shades of its family…it goes well with mustard, yellow and the likes. I have this new mustard pumps I bought in Rustan’s, EDSA Shangri-La Mall…nice! (Next time picturan ko…I’ve exceeded my photo limit in friendster blog kasi)
5. Black
- Ah, I adore BLACK! My passion for black dates back in high school…enough said, I’m glad they’re back.
No, pink is no longer the new black, guys…black will always be black.
6. Velvet
- Not a fan of velvet…the Philippines is too hot to accommodate such tela.
7. Metallics
- Ah, this one I love wearing…even before the trend started, I have lots of metallics…I just added a big Bottega Veneta bag for my collection.
Metallics now however doesn’t end with the good ol’ Gold and Silver and probably bronze (my fave)…now there are metallic pink, green, blue…what have you. Well, with those I’d probably pass…I’d still go for the classic gold, silver esp. bronze

8. Full Skirts
-I’m not a full skirt lady…my hips are too wide to wear full skirts. I just look awful in them. So,pass!
That’s the problem with some people, just because it’s "uso" you have to wear them…if it doesn’t flatter your figure, trash it!
I’ve seen oh so many people looking hideous on uso clothes that doesn’t fit their body type…they end up looking "Trying Hard." Same goes with those who wear jackets on summer months, those who wear white pants on rainy months or those who wear shades indoors…hello??? From what planet are you ba? 
9. Fur
- Fur? Malamig ba sa Manila? Hehe. PASS!
Look at this Marc Jacobs Chinchilla Venetia bag…cute sana kaso I don’t wanna be caught dragging my dog around HEHE
10. Volume
Don’t wear this if you’re top heavy…you’ll look heavier!

My Fashion Rules:
- if it doesn’t fit you…trash it! Know your body type and stick with what looks good on you…just add accessories, bags, shoes to update your look.
- if you can’t afford it, don’t buy it. You won’t feel good knowing you have no lunch money for months just for an expensive buy…not very smart!
