Finally, my favorite footwear, the Espadrilles! There are times that you don’t want to wear boat shoes on a summer time and you just wanna keep it simple and light, that’s when Espadrilles come to the rescue. Of course, we live in the Philippines and it has been a very fine trend that they usually wear this as casual even thought there aren’t in the beach.
HOW TO WEAR: Perfect with shorts or Tokong. It can also be worn with pastel pants. 
There are too many choices when it comes to shoes so you have to know when or where you should wear a particular type. Share us your thoughts!
