Eye on fashion



Yves Saint Laurent once said that "Fashion fade (but) syle is eternal." In this day and age where we live amidst the influence of this billion dollar industry we call fashion, personal style is refreshing to say the least. Let's face it, fashion is a form of self expression and what would you be without your own stand on matter.

Luckily we found two people at Ayala Trinoma, who exemplify style in their own rights. Both of which had an understated way of dressing!





Trisha a 22 year old, Advertising Executive, who stood out from the crowded mall because of her "summer-ish" ensemble. She has an easy going vibe with regards to her fashion choices. She likes shopping locally especially in shops like Bayo, but her real love is mixing old finds with new pieces. She considers herself a vintage fanatic, like the satchel she had with her which came from her mom's own closet. Vintage has always been a favorite staple where you'd want to keep the good old vibe of the past, embracing the history and combining with your own personal style or modern pieces. People who are in their early 20's can pull this off.

Trend cycle: Trisha's style can be said it's in the peak (early majority) since stylish shorts are very common right now. Shorts come in various forms, shapes, cuts, sizes and even the kind of texture and style. Since summer is just arround the corner, people go for comfort but very stylish at the same time.

Enzo is a 21 year old student who appeared to be very laidback, your typical kind of guy with a devil may care approach of dressing but something the way he put several pieces together indivated otherwise.
He managed to look put togetherwithout sacrificing his casual sense of style. He is also never afraid to visit thrift shops for his clothing, accesories, etc. He loves wearing plain shirts, shorts, and sweaters which is somewaht reminiscent of the New York Street style.

Tend cycle: Enzo's style is more of a classic look, since most of the pieces are plain and simple.
