Open The Drapes

How do you beat the intense heat of the sun? With an equally hot dress, of course!

Style Staple always sends me the sexiest dresses, I end up keeping them in my closet until I find the perfect occasion to wear them to, or the confidence to wear them out–whichever comes first. LOL! In this case, it was the party that came first.

itscamilleco.com2013052302

I love draped backs like this. It’s actually one of my go-to styles whenever I design backless gowns and dresses for my clients. I’ve never made one for myself though, so thank you Style Staple! Usually, when it comes to dresses like this, I like to style them with party-worthy accessories like diamonds, gold or crystals to make my outfit look sophisticated and feminine. But since the party I was attending wasn’t really formal,  I thought I’d give that a break and go for something a little more hip. Hair to one side, an acrylic cross earring on the other, a pair of vintage-looking, quirky sunnies and some badass cuffs and rings–what do you think?

Now, I’m sure that after all the effort I put into describing my outfit, the no.1 question on the comments section below will still be this: “What type of underwear are you wearing here?” Sigh. I know you too well! To save us all the trouble, let me share with you my secret recipe for wearing a backless minidress successfully. All you need is a stick-on bra (mine are from Nu Bra and Maidenform) and a pair of seamless panties. If these still won’t do the trick, wear Spanx or something like it as well. Even the sexiest celebrities still turn to this miracle wonder for a little help–whether to suck that tummy in or to hide those dreadful panty lines. Abs can create bulges too you know! LOL! Defensive much? Then, when it’s time to take photos, suck everything in like there’s no tomorrow. Inhale, inhale, INHALE!!!!

It’s so hard being a girl. So, so, so hard… Anyway, so if any of you still ask me the million dollar question about my underwear of choice on the comments section below, I will give you a big fat failing mark. Not paying attention! Tsk, tsk!

    Hehe. Nabasa ko sa isang reply mo sa isang comment here that you are very much lacking in the, urrrm, b***s department. I and one of my friends have the same sentiments and her only consolation is watching ANTM. Mga model nga raw, halos wala nah halos nun. Iyon palagi ang bukambibig. Namin. :D

    Hagalpak ako ng tawa dun sa sinabi mong, ‘“What type of underwear are you wearing here?”’. Nadala ka rin, noh?

    Ang ganda talaga ng katawan mo, swear. You could really wear anything. :'(( Kaingggiit!

        Aie, kayo naman po ng mga models ay of the same level naman po. Mas maganda ka pa nga kesa sa iba.
        Kami, pa compare2 lang, pampa-aliw.

        Ahhh… It really makes me happy kapag nagre-reply ka sa mga comments. And it makes me want to see u talaga in person (Ikaw kasi, eh. Hindii mo’ko tine-text kapag pupunta ka dito sa Cebu.) [FEELING CLOSE. Kapaaal!]

    Showstopper indeed! You look great, Miss Camille! Very Bond-girl in your poses. I’m sure you turned many heads at the event you wore this dress to. I’m glad you chose gold and nude colored accessories for balance. It keeps the red of the dress very fresh and classy. By the way, I heard you’re an endorser for Vaseline ad well as for a makeup brand in Japan. I’m sorry my greetings came late, but CONGRATULATIONS! They couldn’t have picked a better person.
