MANILA, Philippines?How does one dress up for an afternoon tea party? Especially if the highlight is a fashion show in the posh Makati Shangri-La?
As these women prove, there are no hard and fast rules.
A long printed dress can be as chic as an all-black ensemble accented by a graphic statement bag. And no matter that it?s summer (in the West, at least), now is the best time to slip into a pair of boots, with the city?s rains and flooded streets.
Apart from wearing key pieces that make their outfits stand out from the rest, these women also have one thing in common: loads of confidence to pull their look off.
