Blanket approval

Pinoys know this ubiquitous blanket.

It's a part of almost every Pinoy household, especially in the provinces. It's about as common as the wooden spoon and fork , last supper, dogs playing cards, and crocheted table cloths.

The fame that it's enjoying has made this blanket go beyond the bed and bedroom. Now, people are starting to wear this as a fashion piece.

Yup, there are now polos, pants, skirts and dresses made of this blanket. And while it may be odd at first thought, it actually works!

So much so that we got a few packs of the same blanket and had several things made.

First up, this skirt and blouse ensemble.

In the masterful hands of Joy, the pair looks so chic and cheery. That's because she took the time to really find the right parts of the blanket, and place them strategically in key points of the pieces.

For added oomph, the back of the blouse has a bit of a surprise. It has a cut-out detail with a bow.

Ate Bullet was thrilled when she saw this and wore it immediately.

Needless to say, it has her approval.
