Shopping Finds

Paris, France is hailed as one of the fashion capitals of the world. Not only are some of the world’s biggest designers from France’s capital, but even the average French citizen stays fashionable despite the ebb and flow of trends. How do they do this? The secret is devastatingly simple: they build their wardrobes around classic pieces, and update the look by buying a few trendy items to mix and match with. You too can be as fashionable as a Pariseinne with these style tips from Promod.

Invest in quality tailored trousers for your everyday wear, and a comfy jersey tank for more casual occasions. It’s normally too warm for scarves over here, but go for a light cotton or silk scarf to add a splash of color to your outfit.

The shift dress is another wardrobe must-have because you can wear it for both daytime affairs or evening events. All you have to do is accessorize appropriately! As a general rule, flats are for the daytime whereas heels are for the night.

A crisp white shirt is a no-nonsense wardrobe basic that goes with absolutely anything. Pair it with slacks or a high-waisted skirt for work, or with denim cutoff shorts and sandals for a casual Sunday afternoon. It would be wise to invest in a quality white shirt that will stand the test of time because you’re definitely going to wear it more than once.

Pair your day dresses with a chic tailored jacket to avoid looking cloyingly feminine and so you can wear your lovely dresses during the colder -ber months.

Finally, a lovely vintage-inspired dress easily solves the problem of what to wear during weddings and other semi-formal occasions.

All featured clothes are available at Promod, the only store that brings French fashion to Manila. Promod is located at TriNoma, Greenbelt 5, Megamall, Ayala Center Cebu and SM Cebu.
