The Ramp's Mixology Study

For it's second installment in Philippine Fashion Week, The Ramp yet again, did not disappoint. A burst of paisleys and peplums dominated the show- prints and cuts some of us chose to forget as they are just deemed too difficult to pull off. The Ramp, however managed to freshen up the trends in a manner that even the plainest Jane can rock. Here are my favorite looks from the show.

The fashion pack's got-to stayed true to its mixology form with clever mixes of hard and soft, structural and feminine. Take even just one winning piece from the collection and you are sure to have something trusty you can work day-to-night, workweek to weekend. And I'm not talking about basics here.. but special pieces with a subtle wow factor that is becoming to be The Ramp's signature. 

For a little mixology exercise, here's a formula that sure is working for me. Remember, its all about finding balance even if you're sporting 3 to 4 trends at a time. 

Peplum top/ Shorts/ Clutch/ Flats 

All from The Ramp and are all available online too!

The Ramp Crossings at Philippine Fashion Week

If there's one show to catch this PFW, it's The Ramp's. It's their second time to join and I bet this one's gonna be better than the last-- which was awesome already. I love the fact that they are constantly evolving, churning out exciting collections and just quietly leading the fashion pack.

Their mixology campaign hits the spot too. In-trend pieces stock the racks and yet you are encouraged to throw your personal spin to make a look truly your own. Exactly what fashion is all about for me.
