Merry Christmas everyone!
I am back from the crazy buzz of medschool and the holiday rush with this super late intro/outfit post on my first ever Philippine Fashion Week experience last October. To those wondering how I got flooded by invites (with a total of 10 free shows to be exact), I've really been persistent (and prayerful!) since June. Searched online and connected with both designer and blogger friends from Manila just to get into this big fashion event until I landed over
philippinefashionweeklive.com. They launched an online raffle in August and I got picked!
I was never lucky with raffles and giveaways but I guess this one was just meant to be. Our family trip was packed hence I only got to attend one show. Cheers to extra invites, there was more than enough for me and my mom!
Preview Magazine's Daryl Chang in electric blue. Just look at those shoes! She's drop-dead fashionable, I'd trade my entire closet to take her place even just for a day. Front row in fashion shows, all-day, everyday, gaaaah! Me and Mom were given second row seats--good enough view for first-timers, eh?
Mom in a ruffled turtleneck peplum top. Proud stylist/daughter here!
What do you think of our black-and-red mother-and-daughter combo?
The best things are hidden at the most unusual places! Got this ombre dress for only P899 from SM Ladies' Fashion's resort line,
Coco Cabana. Yes, yes, yes, I am wearing a beach dress! Lesson learned? Never underestimate the resort wear section. Their maxi dresses are way cheaper and they look absolutely fit for formal events, too.
A lot of good things happened to my blog this year because of all your support. I believe it's just about time to stand alone and get my very own domain. What do you guys think of
wearismela.com? I'll be posting the runway photos plus all the other backlogs next. Happy holidays!
Much love,
Mela
