MANILA, Philippines - The luxuries of a democracy mean nothing without the freedom to choose. Be it choosing between the exacting polish of Chanel lacquers, the right bag, or even changing or keeping up with the status quo — here at YStyle, we believe participation is key and in the coming important days, exercising your right to vote could be the most stylish thing you could do.
In this accessory editorial, we simulate the poll booth experience with indelible-inspired nail art and a selection of evening clutches in the spirit of #LoveLocal. From the patriotic hues of Joanique’s maskara wooden minaudieres to the shagreen primaries of Janina Dizon, we urge you to participate (and shop) in your citizenship. With or without a banging manicure.
Be an informed voter, educate yourself on your candidate’s platforms, and on May 9, 2016 — go out and vote.
