F&X has that comfort & coolness for the rock-and-roll chick

MANILA, Philippines - On the global fashion calendar, the fall collections are looming over the scene. But here in Manila, more often than not, it’s a warm clime the whole year.

F&X’s fall collection has a mix of easy separates that will have you feeling that carefree attitud. Host and TV personality Iya Villania gets this freewheeling vibe as the newest endorser for F&X. With her rock-and-roll-chick style, and edgy and fun hosting abilities, Iya is the perfect face for F&X: the new girl-next-door, who has a well-rounded personality. What’s more, Iya is a stickler for down-home, relaxed style, just like F&X fashion, which offers all the comfort with all of the coolness for your everyday outfits.

For a fresh splash of color, go for pretty pastels in shades like spearmint. Paired with a faded denim jacket, it’s the right mix of grunge and pretty that takes you to the level of effortless style. So do pieces like a slouchy white button down or a lace top, all offset with denim.

Interesting character tees with Minnie Mouse or Madonna icons also mimic this playful sensibility. Pair it with jeans, and then throw on a light blazer if you’re heading out to the movies. There are infinite ways to style F&X’s pieces to suit every move, and every lifestyle.

If the occasion calls for a smart-casual look, reach for the label’s light khaki trousers, and pair them with a cotton tank top, festooned with a scarf. Dark blue shorts also attain that grownup vibe when paired with a long-sleeved, sheer-shoulder blouse.

For a date night or coffee, be sure to stock up on F&X’s swishy, short A-line skirts. They can be paired with any tee, such as an off-shoulder-striped number, or even a screen-print version, if you’re keeping things casual. If you’re heading out to the mall, try on an unexpected pairing like a tiered polka dot skirt with a statement tee and a nylon bomber jacket.

The secret is in the mix, and at F&X, you’ll definitely have all the elements you’ll need for nonchalant style.

F&X shops are located at Greenbelt 5, Robinsons Place Manila, SM Cebu, SM Clark, SM Mall Of Asia, SM Masinag, SM North Edsa-Annex, SM Southmall, TriNoma, Active Fun Building located at Bonifacio High Street and SM Megamall.
