Start the summer right by knowing the hottest trends and how to wear them. Here are more than a dozen style ideas on how to wear shorts, prints and mini-dresses.
SHORTS
THE LOOK: POLISHED
Go with classic black and white.

White blouse, P1499, Kamiseta. Black and white printed shorts, P895, Plains and Prints. Round-toe kitten heels, P1299, Substance. Necklace, P380, Kathang Kamay.
Take shorts to the polished route.

Striped cardigan, P799, Jellybean. Yellow top, P525, Plains and Prints. White shorts, P675, Bayo. Loafers, P3290, Kickers.
THE LOOK: TO THE BEACH
Shorts are a definite must-have during beach season. Wear a printed tunic over your bikini and shorts in summer’s biggest color, yellow, or throw on an embroidered top over your bikini and denims.

Sheer tunic top, P799.75, Liv at SM Department Store. Striped bikini top, P1695 for the set, Fartattu. Mustard shorts, P745, Freeway.
These accessories are absolute can’t-go-to-the-beach-without-‘em!

Flipflops, P875, Havaianas. Sabutan bag with multicolor discs, P1500, Cathy. Beach bag with floral beach mat, P1500, Cathy. Aviators, P149.75, SM Department Store.
THE LOOK: CASUAL SUMMER CHIC
Mix colors together for more impact.

Green cardi, P449.75, Beauty at SM Department Store. Shorts with nautical print, P750, Store for All Seasons. Heels, P1870, VNC.
Sizzle on a hot summer night with satin shorts.

Black silk ruffled top, P999, Folded and Hung. Gold satin shorts, P895, Mimi. Mustard heels, P499.75, Parisian Jr. at SM Department Store. Clutch bag, P800, Cathy.
This casual look is perfect when you plan to hit the mall.

Fuschia racerback tank top, P895, Chocolate Clothing Co. Bleached shorts, P1095, Fartattu. Bangles, P445, Topshop. Green slim belt, P149.75, SM Department Store.
PRINTS
Add a splash of print to your normal suit and slacks ensemble.

Printed top, P750, Mimi. Slacks, P1095, Plains and Prints. Wedge loafers, P1899, Substance. Drop earrings, P150, Kathang Kamay.
Wear long tops with slim cut pants instead of leggings.

Printed mini dress, P799, Folded and Hung. Denim gauchos, P1195, Plains and Prints. Heels, P1870, VNC.
A comfy outfit for a hot summer day.

Mini dress, P799, Folded and Hung. Wedge, P899, Styletto.
This poet-sleeved polo transforms printed shorts from casual to dressy.

Polo, P995, and printed shorts, P550, both from Mimi. Gold flats, P1250, VNC.
Wear a white shirt under this printed top.

Printed jumper top, P795, Plains and Prints. Denim mini skirt, P950, Karimadon. Necklace, P495, Get Happy. White patent peep-toe wedges, P449.75, Parisian Jr. at SM Department Store.
DRESSES
Who says all dresses have to look girly?

Layered dress, P695, Freeway. Gold sneakers, price available upon request, Respect M.E. Adidas. Necklace with stone pendant, P580, Lucy in the Sky.
Sizzle and shine with this gold dress.

Gold mini dress, P1300, Ruth and Esther. Quilted doctor’s bag, P1000, Cathy. Multi-colored sandals, P1870, VNC.
The flowy fabric is very forgiving—suitable for different body types.

Printed dress, P1,299.75, Signature at SM Department Store. Wedge with printed ribbon, P1250, VNC.
A breezy dress in a refreshing color—what more can you ask for?

Lilac mini dress, P649, Jellybean. Wedges, P1250, VNC. Necklace with orange pendant, P495, Get Happy.
Show off those well-tanned shoulders with a halter cut.

Printed halter dress, P995, Freeway. Drop earrings, P150, Kathang Kamay. White patent peep-toe wedges, P449.75, Parisian Jr. at SM Department Store.

i love the get Get Happy fruit necklace collection! saw the cherry version first on Preview worn by Heart Evangelista.. or was it Nikki Gil..anyway.
will Get Happy ever be in cebu? since ur selling in Rustans outlets maybe u could also send some of ur stuff over to Rustan’s Ayala cebu. at these prices im sure they’ll sell well.
for the meantime can i just place an order online and would u be able to ship it here?
