Fashion | Valentine Chic: Lacey Love

It's still the season of love bugs and is the perfect time to wear romantic pieces inspired by lace! Fashion runways dictate how lace and other "subtle cut-outs" and "see-throughs" reign 2011. To give you some idea on how to incorporate this trend, here are some of the pieces I love from Unarosa:



Unarosa Lace Yoke Top Php 1,330

What's to love: the cut and the subtle lace details. The sexy back will surely drive any man crazy while sporting a casual look.



One shoulder lace dress Php 1,590

What's to love: This dress reminds me of local celebs doing their regular hosting gigs. Hence, this dress is perfect for evening parties and more importantly, dinner dates!



Lace Sweetheart Dress Php 2,590

What's to love: If you are skinsational as in you have really good skin then there's nothing more perfect than this dress. A tip though, make sure you get the right size and wear the right undergarments which could include thermal clothing to give you warmth from within since this dress is a bit bare.



Lace Backless Top Php 1,160

What's to love: Perfect for women who take time to firm up their arms! The back is really a hot surprise for your date, wear it with a necklace to avoid looking too plain a white lady.

Like my previous forecast, 2011 would be all about light colors, softness, and subtle prints. This look is a perfect spin around from the gothic-metallic era that was so 2010.

I love it! Even preggers like me can wear it and be as cool as Angelina Jolie. Match it with chandelier earrings and walk barefoot on the beach.

Unarosa's Guide to Layering

“What shall I wear?” is a woman’s cry heard almost as often as the rooster’s crow at the break of dawn. Standing in front of the closet can be very stressful. Each day is a challenge to find a creative way to update the wardrobe.

When I was still working, I had the same problem! Well the key to success is to cover the basics, throw in a few trends and mix it all up. Play. There are no rules in layering outfits. Don’t be afraid to try things on and combine unconventional pieces. You may be pleasantly surprised with the result.


Here are some essentials to get you started:

1. THE BASICS

Throw on a classic white polo, high-waist skirt and your ever-reliable knit vest. To complete the look, add a studded belt and smart accessories.

2. LITTLE BLACK DRESS

You can never go wrong with the little black dress. Stand-out by wearing it with a printed jacket topped-off with a jaunty scarf.

3. COCKTAIL DRESS

Make your cocktail dress boardroom-worthy by wearing it with a tailored jacket. Cuffed-up sleeves complete this unexpected match.


4. VEST

Conquer the workday wearing your favorite weekend vest matched with a classic top and high-waist skirt.

5. TRENCH COAT

The timeless black trench can be worn in any kind of weather and works with almost everything. Wear it belted over your favorite Unarosa dress for an instant wardrobe update.
