I remember one of the first few times I ever stepped into Mango…(i was obsessed with the candy they used to give for free by the counter!)..it was in Glorietta back in early 2001. It was days before a trip abroad and my mom, my sister and I were on the hunt for leather jackets. We found the perfect one and we’ve been hooked ever since.
Surprise surprise! Last Wednesday, I actually left my cave and attended the MANGO Fall/Winter 2011 fashion show hosted by Bianca Valerio in Resorts World. Outfits were put together by Manila’s up and coming stylists — Myrrh Lao To, Ana Canlas of Preview, Bianca Santiago-Reinoso of Maven Magazine, Patrick Galang, and Teej Nepomuceno.


Wearing a top from CC-OO, ARANAZ bag, F21 shorts
My “posse” for the evening — dragged these two boys (who I’m sure were really there to ogle at the models rather than the clothes) and kidnapped Mandi (who happens to be our friend’s younger sister) of Chic Material.
Here are some of my favorite looks from the show!
