Jean pool
The ladies danced their way to Club Bureau as they welcomed the newest jeans brand — Salsa Jeans. It was a tango of sorts as some of the ladies came in subdued colors while the others came in different bright hues. Those who came wearing subdued colors wore LBDs with accent pieces such as belts, bags and shoes. Those who came in jewel tones looked radiant in purples, yellow, red and orange. They wore minimal accessories so as not to look overwhelming.
Salsa Jeans had its Manila launch recently at Club Bureau. The first store opened in Portugal in 1998; by the end of 2007, over 50 stores were open in acclaimed department stores worldwide. Salsa Jeans intends to keep this stylish streak rolling. Athens, Dublin, Barcelona, Lisbon, Paris, Luxembourg are just some of the celebrated cities that carry Salsa Jeans. And now, Salsa Jeans adds Manila (Robinson’s Ermita) to its long list of outlets across the globe.
With its signature style that marries convenience, edge and detail, Salsa Jeans will soon be another must-have on the lists of Manila’s urban fashionistas.
