The thing about wearing oversized shirts is, well, it’s dangerous.

Outfit Guide: Paradise IMF 2016 /
I'm sure you've heard... There's something lit happening on April 9. Huge names from different genres (read: from OPM to EDM to Hiphop) clumped in one surreal night. I honestly don't know how the organizers managed to pull this off, and more importantly, I honestly can't believe that I'm actually going to this music festival.
I just have an itsy bitsy problem — I still haven't decided on what to wear yet. I figured there would be a lot of us who share the same sentiments. There is no room to look crappy when it's an event headlined by Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa, yes???
With that, I assembled four sets of looks to give you some ideas on what to wear and given that one of the headliners has a very distinct sense of style and has his own clothing line, I figured maybe I could pattern these looks from that.
Look #1
Adidas Originals top, 7,920 PHP / Adidas Originals top, 7,920 PHP / Balmain brown legging, 54,735 PHP / High waisted pants, 790 PHP / Tan shoes, 8,270 PHP / Fendi backpack, 105,730 PHP / Isabel Marant bracelet, 11,385 PHP / Maison Margiela ring, 17,075 PHP / Mirror sunglasses, 555 PHP / Mac cosmetic, 1,535 PHP / Nars cosmetic, 2,035 PHP / Nars cosmetic, 1,210 PHP
Basically all four looks featured here all share the same thing: a neutral colour palette. Warm khakis, nudes, taupes, and soft pastel pinks. If you've ever seen Kanye present Yeezy Season 1/2/3, you know these are the dominant hues (well, except the pastel pink hehe).
The first look leans more on the dark side — blacks, browns, maroon. If you want a chill, quick, and fuss free look you can easily dance around in, this is definitely for you. Put on a cropped top, leggings, sneakers, your not-so-big leather backpack, some silverware and minimal nude make up to enhance that pretty face of yours and you're good to go.
Look #2
Brown t shirt, 1,160 PHP / Blue coat, 1,855 PHP / Jillian Plain Strappy Bodysuit, 575 PHP / Alexander Wang denim shorts, 13,805 PHP / Common Projects white shoes, 24,510 PHP / Burberry tinted moisturizer, 2,470 PHP / Nars cosmetic, 1,510 PHP
If you want to bare some legs and cover up above then you may opt for this look. Been raving about nudes in my past blog and Instagram posts and it looks especially cute when paired with washed out denim. If you're feeling a bit hot with the coverup, you can wrap it around your waist 'til things get a bit more chilly again. Top it off with a nude cap and a clean pair of white sneakers. Velcro, for added character ;)
Look #3
Adidas Originals sweatshirt, 19,235 PHP / Pink shirt, 1,070 PHP / Tee shirt / Adidas sneaker, 3,485 PHP / New balance sneaker, 5,580 PHP / Common Projects sneaker, 16,420 PHP / Vince Camuto scarve, 1,765 PHP / Mykita round sunglasses, 26,020 PHP / Christian Dior aviator sunglasses, 22,985 PHP / Round sunglasses, 285 PHP
Ever heard of lampshading? If not, it's simple... it's the "no pants are the best pants" look. If the first set didn't cut it for you in the laidback field then maybe this will. Just select an oversized shirt (printed or not, it's up to you), wear quirky shoes, and just dump on the equally quirky accessories you deem necessary. I find that putting on a neckerchief gives a lovely sense of contrast to this look.
Now I know this look makes you appear like you're not wearing bottoms, but please do, for your own sake. Any denim short shorts would do the trick.
Look #4
Topshop ripped boyfriend jeans, 2,760 PHP / TopShop Strappy Low-Back Body, 1,050 PHP / Common Projects low profile sneaker, 16,355 PHP / Lulu s vegan jewelry, 560 PHP / Wanda Nylon nylon cap, 2,575 PHP / White iphone case, 1,160 PHP / J.Crew rounded sunglasses, 8,360 PHP / Edward Bess palette eyeshadow, 3,995 PHP
Last but certainty not the least, the 4th set. If anything, this would be my favorite — a nude halter bodysuit paired with light denim mom jeans. Similar to the second look but, you guessed it, with pants! Hah!
Kidding aside, I love how this outfit bares just the right patches of skin (shoulders, clavicles, and back), and hugs you in the right places (namely: the waist). Protect your face from that open field sun with a cute satin cap and a belt bag for extra hands-free convenience.
