Bid adieu to the wall-to-wall splash of purple and nudes for 2010, Pantone, the world’s top color authority, just got their soapbox and heralded the new color for 2011 – HONEYSUCKLE! Doesn’t it tickle you pink just by hearing it? According to Leatrice Eiseman, the executive director of Pantone, “In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues. Honeysuckle derives its positive qualities from a powerful bond to its mother …

I do not know about you but I am rummaging through my mom’s closet and bagging every high-waist shorts in sight. I have reiterated and will reiterate again that I LOVE everything vintage, I worship everything in the 50′s and high-waist shorts are just what the doctor ordered.

These shorts have graced fashion podiums since 2007 and are still a fashion staple up until now. However, I am shying away from acutely fitted shorts and doting on loose, high-waist ones. You see, my thighs and I are not in very good …

Contradiction at its best.
I am still not over Lanvin’s collaboration with H&M and here comes another hefty fashion fling. House of Valentino and Gap! Yes, luxury and basics tie-up. How Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli, the creative directors of Valentino, will dress up Gap’s preppy basics with their frills and ruffles will be quite intriguing. The fashion world seems to be spoiling the masses. High fashion hobnobbing with the main street.
And no matter what the end results would be, I wouldn’t complain. Who wouldn’t want a touch of …

Hong Kong, I stared at this round, vintage Lennon glasses as if my life depended on it. Had I not taken that sugar-free coffee that morning, I could have sworn it was talking to me in a very deep ancient voice. I was still in my teens then.
I have always fancied sunglasses in general, most specially that time of the year when my tan is slowly fading and my complexion is uneven and as confused as a fickle minded teenager. No amount or shade of concealer can come to my …

Changes and new beginnings will always bring big and better things. I’ve always believed that events and circumstances will always bring us to the best things in life and though losses are generally sad, there will always be a reason to celebrate afterward. Now, let’s make room for the good times!
After months of hiatus, I’m happy to announce that there’s finally a new fashionista blogger who’ll breathe life back to the Cebu fashion and Lifestyle blog, Style Cebu!
“And that’s the very thing that I’m excited about. I’m looking forward …

Right before we welcome the year 2011, we’ll witness in the coming days a fabulous change as StyleCebu turns a new leaf. Yes, it starts with a new look as it dons a new hue — a great new colour scheme no less. After years of indecision, StyleCebu.com goes back to the very colours that I believe suits the Cebu fashion blog best. And adding to it is the distinctive new insignia, which I hope will encapsulate both the blog (and all its rightful fantastic content about the beautiful city …

We arrived just in time to hear pulsing music and watch the crowd getting denser. I hurried to where the A/C was and the buffet table and forgot about the boyfriend who was taking pictures. The interior by the way provides you with a nice view of the fashion show happening outside while you sip on your cocktail and chew on your fish sticks. Ah, lovely, fashionable crowd! You get to bump occassionally into a synthetically clad model but then the night’s indigenous theme got to you in a way …
