Mom-Finds: U.S. Labels at SM Fashion Forum

Last Friday of the month:  Fashion / Shopping

I grew up going to Shoe Mart - that's the original name of the department store we frequent in Carriedo, Manila and Cubao during my younger years.  What began as a humble shoe store, SM is now in every major city in the country.  I love shopping at SM.  This retail giant carries a long list of local fashion brands, with some branches currently offering a select line of imported labels from the US housed under Fashion Forum.

Mom-Finds: And Apparel Strapless Maxi

Last Friday of the month:  Shopping / Fashion

Growing up, I've never been a fan of shorts and minis.  I guess it's because I was too skinny my whole life (it was a major insecurity for me) and was never confident wearing them in public - unless necessary, like on the beach of course! I am most comfortable in pants. If I have to wear a dress or skirt, it should be knee-length at the very least, and I'm good to go.

My most recent shopping find is this Miya Maxi Dress by And Apparel - another versatile piece from one of my favorite online stores, Catalogue63.
