PASSIONista: Lou Muñoz

Posted by Tippi | Jul 9, 2015 | PASSIONistas |

There are more sides to fashion, and many, many more sides to the people in fashion, than meet the collective eye. Beyond the shows and catwalks, we discover people with a myriad of interests and dreams who aren’t just fashionistas, they’re passion-istas. One of the models I enjoyed working with in the past is Lou Muñoz because she always felt like more than a pretty face. Looking at her, who would ever think that her passion was food? Debunking the typical myth that models don’t eat, Lou has loved cooking and preparing all kinds of dishes since she was...

Just Add Water!

Posted by Tippi | Jul 6, 2015 | The Tippi Point |

It’s the beginning of the week and a stormy and very, very wet Monday. This morning was kick started with a super early morning workout and breakfast topped off with a strong espresso–needless to say, I had more than a little extra energy to burn today. After working on some new ‘Modern Filipiniana’ designs for a couple of clients, I was left to while away an entire rainy afternoon and I thought, there’s water everywhere, why not add some to my fashion sketches. I had recently been inspired by all the amazing watercolor artwork of my good friend, Cynthia,...

Fashion Tips: Weekend to Weekday

Posted by Tippi | Jul 2, 2015 | Fashion Tips |

We all have our favorite weekend pieces that we wish we could wear all week long (mine happen to be these picnic-appropriate vintage print denim culottes that I designed this past summer). So how do we transition our weekend clothes into weekday style? Even laid-back fabric, like denim or prints, can be made more work-appropriate when turned into a relaxed suit. What better way to make our clothes not only do double-duty, but inject a bit of playfulness into our work week as well? Feel free to share, what would be your favorite weekend to weekday look? 🙂 ...

Who doesn’t love surprises? I know I do 🙂 And I just want to share an unexpected treat that Ito and I received yesterday. My good, good friend and Fine Arts classmate, Cynthia Bauzon-Arre, surprised us with these dreamy watercolor renditions of our recent fashion shoot which she posted on her Instagram account… My good friend @tippiocampo recently posted a picnic-inspired fashion spread on her blog (tippiocampo.com) and I found the collection and models so pretty that I thought of drawing a couple of poses for tonight’s #watercolor exercise. The clothes are based on Tippi’s designs and the drawings...

Fashion “Al Fresco”

Posted by Tippi | Jun 22, 2015 | Fashioning Design |

Taking inspiration from our recent jaunts, I find nothing imbibes a youthful spirit and unstudied elegance quite like the timeless apron dress. At a time when people are getting off the fast-lane-to-nowhere and are rediscovering the beauty of strolling the gracious-and-scenic-route-to-everywhere, it’s a reminder that taking the road less traveled, and celebrating each milestone along the way, should still be done in style! 😉 Navy blue lace gown with lace appliqué straps, b&w halter maxi dress with layered skirt : Tippi Ocampo/ Model friends: Katarina Rodriguez & Pau Alberto/ Hair & make-up: Kit Bautista / Photos: Ito Ocampo Bookmark...
