Search for these vibrant, ultra-fashionable and distinctive pieces that you’re sure no one else will have at the soon to be re-launched Independent Lifestyles section of the Power Plant Mall. Although it has been around for quite some time now, never has the treasure hunt for unique finds been more exciting. Have a field day with feminine but sophisticated and modern pieces from Plank, comfortable and chic shoes from Sapato Manila, vintage accessories from Irene’s closet, Pilar, Marni’s Room, classic staples from Details Trading, quirky clothes from Ilaya, Ruth & Esther, bags from Aranaz and many more local designers that attest to the Filipino’s ability to be world-class in the field of fashion. You can even take your cue from 16 different looks put together by 16 top stylists in a photo exhibit using all the exceptional pieces found in this hip, new area.
Another great place to look for apparel, accessories, and other accents that will certainly make you stand out is the upcoming Vintage Bazaar on Aug. 19 and 20, aptly named Marché du Monde or Market of the World. Forget searching in Soho or Portobello Road for now and let goods from around the world find you.
As one can see, there’s no excuse for you to contribute further to the dreariness of the current weather by wearing blah outfits. Keep in mind, though, that there is more to being stylish than just having up-to-the minute clothes in your closet. It entails having the guts to wear what you want with conviction and a keen eye for pieces that are sure to set you apart from the rest. It takes confidence. It’s an attitude, even a lifestyle.
Luckily, you don’t have to go too far to get a taste of this hip and enviable way of living because Rockwell brings it to you. With its chic Z-lofts at One Rockwell that enable one to watch the sun rise and set with its views from the east and west, a promise of endless shopping possibilities, and a genuine desire to bring glamour into your life, there’s no doubt that this is indeed Manila’s most fashionable address.
