Good Dress Up SUITEBLANCO ROCKS MANILA!. ELENABLOG

I have a new favorite brand here in Manila. SM Retail group introduces you SUITEBLANCO.

SUITEBLANCO speaks to young, modern women and men with an uninhibited urban spirit. The clothes and accessories resonate well with consumers, who aspire for a diverse worldview on fashion that is aspirational and attainable in terms of price. This market segment is constantly clamoring for novelty and variety and we recognize the need to deliver such demands.

The SUITEBLANCO Woman is a discerning individual who is undaunted by the latest fashion trends; she�s either poised to set them or defy them.

She loves to co-create and share happenings with others. She is driven by success and fulfillment particularly career goals, hence she rationalizes the fine line between saving and spending.

The SUITEBLANCO Man is a free spirit who is primed to lead the pack. He is bold in making his own decisions and is definitely confident in selecting his fashion influences.

FREEWAY x Lucio San Pedro's Music

Known for its collaboration with different renowned Filipino artists, Freeway is honored to launch the National Artist Collector�s Series for Fall 2013. Freeway celebrates Lucio San Pedro's 100th Birth Centennial with the brand's collection of awe-inspiring pieces beaming with Filipino pride. It�s no surprise that the 9^th National Artist chosen to pay homage for this series is a man full of talent and ingenuity. Lucio San Pedro, National Artist for Music, is a great Filipino composer and teacher. Known for his composition of the widely popular lullaby �Sa Ugoy ng Duyan� (in collaboration with another National Artist, Levi Celerio) and the symphonic poem �Lahing Kayumanggi�, Lucio San Pedro has paved the Pinoy world of music with plenty of his beautiful compositions bearing national soul. For the collection, it is composed of a wide array of casual to work tops and dresses using fabrics such as satinized twills, matte charmeuse, poplins and knits. The unique cuts and styles made out of different fabric combinations are carefully crafted to flatter the woman's figure without sacrificing comfort by using mostly stretch fabrications. As for its visual prowess, the collection combines floral inspirations with hand drawn lines and curves fused with lyrics and titles of San Pedro�s famous orchestra pieces. Colors range from the basic black and white to subtle tones such as beige and teal. Certainly, these pieces are made to capture the essence and mark of the Filipina's modern beauty.

Match the Freeway x Lucio San Pedro pieces with footwear from JANYLIN (www.facebook.com/Janylinshoes) as seen in the campaign photos.

Philippine Fashion Week Day 3/ Superb Bazaar Day 3 outfit! I-aachieve ko talaga ang sparkles the whole week.haha I feel so athletic in this outfit. I think it's because of the shorts and the sneaks. Wanted to pull off the athletic look but I turned out to be more glam and girly more than athletic hihi. I think it's because of the sparkles. My friend, Cams even told me I could pass as a beacon in this outfit. They can see me from afar. :))

This is my Superb by SuperSale Bazaar/ Phil Fashion Week Day 1 outfit. Feeling a bit lazy to dress up so I opted for a top and skirt ensemble. To break the ice, I wore this sequined top so I won't look too plain. I also opted minimal use of accessories and just wore this pair of gorgeous earrings from SM Accessories! Such a great find!:)
