TROPICANA

Okay, I've seen how plaid has taken over the guy's wardrobe. I mean, It started off as a hipster's uniform of choice but it can actually be reworked into something new for Summer 2009. I like Robby's interpretation, hello South Americana. Liking the new bermuda length too. Shirt and shorts from Ab-normal Bangkok, Sandals from Vic Barba, Topman hat, Goyard bag

IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE

Imagine magazine will always have a place in my heart. And at the party for its third issue, Cubao X saw the collective style powers of all contributing stylists, photographers, hair/makeup artists and the usual fashion denizens.

Chi in an H&M top, harem pants from Zara, Oxford from Rustan's. Moschino bag and bracelets from Human.

Oooh, tailored pieces on BJ looks effortless. I like the cuffed hem with sockless oxfords. Fashyown. (Photo by Myrrh Lao To)

Didnt get his name but he rocks the blonde hair!! The slouchy jacket and anti-fit trousers are hot too! (Photo by Myrrh Lao To)

Xtina can practically wear anything and get away with it because she is just so enviously model thin. If i wore those PVC leggings, I'd just look ridiculously fat, but on her it looks, WOW. (Photo by Myrrh Lao To)

BREAKFAST AT TIMOTHYS

Okay, having brunch to celebrate your birthday is indeed something different and Tim actually pulled it off at the Shangri-la. I went out the previous night but I still woke up to go and see what the people would be wearing at 10am. It's a strange feeling to be with the usual gangs of bandits but with the sun as the natural source of light. That experience alone was priceless. That could also be the reason why I only took one photo. Staurday is always recovery. Gah.

Divine in a dress from a Bangkok designer, Kelly Hermes bag and Chanel necklace.

Nicholas Kirkwood shoes.

RAF SIMONS ASTRONAUT BOOTS

I hate Gil because he always has the sickest kicks. GRRR. The Astro boot comes with an external pocket pouch with zip fastening. I can think of a million things I can put in there. My phone. My lipstick. My coins. haha. But then it would weigh a ton. Maybe thats why its called astro shoes. It's suppose to defy gravity. Wotevs. I likey.

The silver ones are fresh off the Spring Summer 2009 runways. Droooool.

And another Raf Simons collab with Fred Perry. Coolnest.

AND ALL THE CHICA LADIES

So sleek and polished. I heart.

THE BLAZER

This look is favored by a lot of local fashion editors and it's easy to see why, it is sleek masculine tailoring that's edgy but still feminine at the same time. Liking that spo'-o'-color on the upturned hem of the jacket and the distressed mini. The peep toe booties finish it off with a rock edge vibe.

I WANT THIS JACKET

Its sort of a suit that comes with exaggerated shoulders and row of double buttons with cuffed sleeves. And I've seen it worn by Ria Bolivar as a suit dress, and now as a guys slouchy sports jacket. I love androgynous pieces that you can share with your fashyon boyfriend. (Wait, is there such a thing as a fashyon boyfriend here in Philly? Wala yata.) Joey Samson in a shirt, jacket and jeans of his own design. Shoes from Giordano Concepts, Karine Arabian bag.

ORANGE YOU GLAD?

I admire girls who can rock colors, especially when its daywear as fantastic as this. Kate Torralba in her own dress, vintage sunnies from grandma, Janylyn shoes and Chloe Saskia bag

JUMPSUIT LUXE

It's always about the shoes, I love how the color in the footwear breaks the predominantly black palette. Agoo in a Topshop one-all, Tango shoes and vintage clutch.

COME TO MOMMA.

Jeremy Scott for Adidas. Available March 2009.
