LOOKBOOK | Patches united for Coachella in December

All sorts of parties and celebrations are of course commonplace this time of year, and we just had our share with office colleagues last Friday where we went for a Coachella-themed Christmas party.

While the popular festival is currently held in April each year, nothing could stop us from going all Coachella in of all months December. Talk about the benefits of living in a tropical country where we can afford to dress up like it's forever spring and summer! Because it is.

For the event I've unearthed a long forgotten shirt made out of patches of cloth sewn together. It's a thrifted piece, if I'm not mistaken, and I really appreciate the effort in putting all these squares of cloth together and making a shirt out of it all. If it were a brand new item sold today, I bet this shirt would be quite expensive than usual because of all the labor involved.

Paired it with tattered jeans, white sneaks, and an assortment of colorful beaded bracelets. And though it's really more of form than function, I wore my "thug life shades" for the most part of the night just for the heck of it. I first put it on while we were performing onstage and simply carried on with it even if I really can't see much from behind those glasses because of those "pixels." It sounds stupid, I guess.

On a side note, I guess you're all familiar with those "finger heart signs" popularized by Koreans. Since we went with OPM (Original Pilipino Music) rock songs for our number, I thought of doing something similar but with the "sign of the horns" (also known as rock sign)--I made it smaller. Perhaps we can call it mini-sign of the horns? Some have suggested "smungay," short for small sungay (horns). Yeah, smungay sounds nice.

Again, just for the heck of it. Let's see if we can start a trend here.

So what's your office Christmas party theme this year?
