Kim Chiu’s Classic Take on Casual Wear in New York
Kim’s signature style could be described as sweet and feminine with just the right amount of cool, and it shows no matter where she is on the globe. For her recent travels, she donned a sweetheart halter top underneath an oversized leather jacket. She balanced the edginess of the pairing with the elegance of a classic polka-dotted maxi skirt.
She kept her outfit simple and comfortable without compromising on style, completing it with MM6 Anatomic Numeric Ballerinas by Maison Margiela. The perennial staple features several unmistakable details associated with the French luxury fashion house, including a front bow and numeric elastic. The host and actress accessorized with multiple earrings, necklaces, and bracelets with touches of gold, including what appears to be a Vintage Alhambra bracelet by Van Cleef & Arpels.
Gold hardware was also present on Kim’s leather handbag from House of Little Bunny, a Thailand-based brand that she officially distributes in the Philippines. The carrier, called Lumière, contains ample room for essentials, making it an ideal travel buddy.
