Color me bag
How do you do this season’s bright colors? Sling them or tote them! A patent tote or faux croc purse in a bold hue is one fab bag!

Love that Accent
ADD THESE PIECES TO SPICE UP ANY ENSEMBLE, SAYS DONNA CUNA-PITA
A classy timepiece
If there’s one accessory worth investing in, it’s a dress watch. We like Glam Rock: it’s luxurious and flexible, coming with interchangeable faces and straps to match almost any outfit. That’s great value for its PHP50,000-plus price tag.
Good jeans
Who says you need perfect genes or a personal trainer to look fab in denims? The right pair uses clever details to enhance your shape. Think decorative stitching, strategically located pockets, and vintage washes. Clockwise from left: Gas denims, from PHP3,000, and Zac Efron’s dark, skinny jeans
