The Right Leg

I’m no Angelina Jolie and my right leg definitely won’t have it’s own Twitter account any time soon… or EVER. But with a thigh-high slit skirt like this, it’s hard not to think of Angelina and her right leg. Haha!

I know I know. Why the hell am I wearing a high slit skirt in the middle of the mall? Well, to tell you the truth, this is what I wear to a normal day at the mall. Haha! Just kidding! I, for one, believe that to be stylish also means dressing appropriately. This means sexy slit skirts like this are definitely not for a casual day at the mall. It just so happened that the Rags2Riches (R2R) event took place at the Powerplant Mall and I was one of the muses for Amina Aranaz’ new collection for R2R. How can I not participate in this? First of all, I admire R2R–a for-profit social enterprise that offers eco-ethical fashion and home accessories made out of up cycled materials. And secondly, it’s Amina who asked. She used to teach me at SoFA and I look up to her a great deal! Of course, I said yes!

So basically, all I had to do was to attend the event using the R2R accessories Amina designed. They were preselected already so I just had to come up with an outfit that would go well with the said accessories. Can you spot which of the accessories I’m wearing were up cycled by R2R? It’s the purple clutch and the olive green cuff. Beautiful, right?

Honestly, I actually found it quite challenging to come up with an interesting outfit for them. They’re not exactly common colors to wear together and I didn’t want to go for something safe like say, a black dress. This bag and cuff (and all of R2R’s products) were made by manangs from poor communities. The least I can do is to give their accessories justice in the best way that I can. What better way than showing some leg? HAHA! I kid, I kid. But seriously speaking, I saw how the manangs were all so happy and proud at the event. They looked so excited seeing their creations come to life. And who wouldn’t be? They did such an amazing job! I suggest you guys check out the rest of the collection and see for yourself!

    hi Camille! how do you tuck in the top so that its bottom doesnt show as an outline on the strecthy fabric of the skirt?

    saw you in this look in one of Kryz Uy’s posts. You have no idea what my reaction was when I saw you there. I was like damn! Si Camille na talaga! Kung maka panamit grabe ang dating kahit simple lang ang damit (not all though). You carry your outfits with sophistication talaga. I envy you in a way but in a very positive way. “,

    Ms. Camille, please share what brand of slip/underwear you find to be the best for avoiding VPL. They seem impossible to find.

      Spanx, Marks & Spencer for slips, Calvin Klein for seamless underwear :)

    You have legs for days! This outfit is fantastic! I love yellow and the colors you paired with it look great. I apologize for never commenting before, I guess I have always been more of a silent appreciator of your looks (I hope that doesn’t sound strange!) but I have always been a huge fan!

    Hi Camille! I’m just really curious. What kinds of underwear do you wear for fabrics that will usually give you a visible panty line? Because I’ve been following your blog for quite some time now and I’ve never seen you with a VPL! :) i hope you reply! :)

      I wear seamless or sometimes I wear something pa over my undies like shorts or inner skirt :)

      The slit helps and the skirt doesn’t really have a lot of excess fabric so nothing gets tangled up :)

    I really like your outfit here. I just love how you paired your very feminine skirt with that top. It’s like a version of Carolina Herrera’s style, only more colorful. :)

    Grabe the leg, it’s like a statement in itself, hahaha! :D I super love the intricate knotting design of the clutch and the cuff! It’s really nice to see such simples things like tied knots be an awesome statement/design for something you can use everyday :) Kudos to the manangs who worked hard on them! *applause* \:D/

    What undies did you wear to go with that skirt? What if someone accidentally steps on your trail and the slit rips and goes higher? haha! At least yung leg pose mo, hindi trying hard! Aranaz clutches are so beautiful! World class! Definitely can compete on par with Judith Leiber! Speaking of Judith Leiber, do you own a clutch by her?

    Reply
    • itscamilleco

      Hindi ba trying hard? Haha! Salamat naman you don’t think so :) I have a pair of shorts pa under it so that my underwear won’t be bakat. So if the skirt rips, I’m still safe haha! Unfortunately no Judith Leiber yet. :)
