andy maga ine editor- in- chief arla iniano couldn’t have said it better herself. Tricia’s pretty, polished style has been an inspiration to girls everywhere for years. Her fashion book is concrete proof that this well-loved blogger is definitely here to stay.

nce upon a time, -year-old Tricia was a bachelor of fine arts student majoring in information design at the teneo de anila niversity. rmed with her penchant for graphic design, photography, and a style that seems to be cut out from the pages of a apanese fashion maga ine, she found herself on the worldwide web posting various looks on deviant T with her signature soft lighting , eventually her blog Tricia ill o laces, and becoming, well, a worldwide wonder.

hile she has remained a top fashion blogger in the country, even making an appearance on the cover of Pre iew’s eptember issue last year, alongside blogger friends aureen y and amille o, she has channeled her passion for fashion into helping girls be confident with both their style, and lifestyle especially with the launch of her first ever book, Style

ssentials or ery Girl.

o one saw it coming, including me. I never thought I’d be the first one among my contemporaries to get a book deal. aybe once or twice in the past, I considered creating a photo book of my travel photos but I figured I still had a lot of places I wanted to go to. I never thought about creating a stylebook until the idea was brought up by ummit. The fi nal concept was a collaborative effort between me and the editors who helped me out with the book. very few months they come out with new books, so they already know what works and what doesn’t. nd they were convinced that partnering with me would totally work, being a first-mover of sorts in my field and generation.

I pictured myself in the shoes of a girl who is only starting to build her wardrobe but has no idea where to start. I thought I could only wish that I had something similar to my book when I was younger, but soon reali ed that I can actually make this wish come true for other girls. Through the years, I’ve come to terms with my personal style and how I wear fashion to fit my lifestyle, and I’ve learned that it shouldn’t always be about what’s hot and what’s not, but instead about what you feel good about wearing. ne can be stylish and beautiful with the right amount of confidence. Hopefully, this book can contribute to this style and lifestyle transformation.
