You wood, wouldn't you?

There are times when you drop by a store and something you see surprises you. That was the feeling I got after seeing this interesting little minaudiere at SM Department Store.

It's made of wood! And it's surprisingly light! And it was on sale! And I have 3 exclamation points in a row!!!

A bag this chic was just begging to be bought. And it was also begging for a companion shoe - a pair of easy-to-wear shoes that had the same neutral color that complements wood.

Enter Rustans, and this nice pair of shoes:

It had the right color, it had the right style, and it had just the right height. It was one of those classic strappy shoes that would go well with anything. But it goes best with the wood bag.

And what best to do with this duo? Use it with the solihiya dress for Ate Bullet.

The final look: a modern, Filipiniana and wood-inspired outfit that's sure to stand out.

Ate wood definitely rock this look to an event. I mean, would.
