NBA Styling Challenge 2016

Fashion bloggers showcased their sense of style using NBA merchandise at the first ever NBA Styling Challenge, Wednesday, at the NBA Store Glorietta 3, Makati.

It was my first time to attend a styling event so it was such an honor to get invited to be one of the bloggers who had a chance to participate in a friendly styling challenge wherein we have to dress our models using NBA Store clothes and accessories that will match the current fashion trend and the basketball team theme that was assigned to us.

​Oklahoma City Thunder is the basketball team that was given to our group so we must apply that theme to the fashion look that we will be styling our model. So here we go.....
Picture
Here we were asking our model what his rtw clothing measurement and shoe size 'cause we had a limited time to get the items that we need...
Picture
I really LOVE this striking shoe design for our team, too bad this shoe doesn't fit our model's size 14 feet! Oh well, at least there  is ONE PAIR of shoe left with a different design that matches his shoe size! Whew!
Picture
This, below, is the ONLY pair that fit him. Good thing, it is BLACK, a neutral color that matches the bag, thank God!
Picture
Wondering, is he comfortable with what he's wearing? He said he was!
Picture
Our theme was OKC, their logo consists of shades of blue, orange, white and black. Lookin' good brother!
Picture
It’s common for many hoops fans to wear basketball jerseys and shorts as their default fashion style. But the NBA challenged groups of bloggers to push the limits in integrating NBA gear into everyday wear by conceptualizing fresh, exciting looks out of the extensive assortment of products available at the NBA Store.

Riding on the energy of the NBA Playoffs, blogger groups created fashion looks highlighting the four NBA Teams currently vying for spots in the NBA Finals. The blogger-stylists’ entries were judged according to Creativity, Resourcefulness, Relevance to the Theme and Overall Impact.

Pat Giron, NBA Philippines Merchandising Manager; Barry Viloria, Lifestyle Editor of CHALK Magazine and Kat Angco, editor of lifestyle.abs-cbn.com made up the panel of judges.
The bloggers were given a total of 30 minutes to brainstorm, look for the perfect gear and accessories, then style Jr. NBA Philippines All-Stars from 2013 and 2014 who modeled the looks.

​Marco Sario of the Letran Knights modeled for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Vince Ferrer of the UST Tiger Cubs donned Toronto Raptors gear, Sam Abuhijleh of the San Beda Red Lions donned the colors of the Oklahoma Thunder, and Rhayyan Amsali of the National University Bullpups suited up for the Golden State Warriors.

And here we present OUR model from Group #3!!! Hoorayyy!!!
Picture
After the models showcased their #OOTDs, the bloggers would have to give a short explanation behind the styling they did. So here am I and Anne telling them why we put together this whole outfit.

Since our assigned basketball team is OKC, we chose the contrasting colors of blue & orange, black & white to match their official logo. Also we made the whole outfit look hip, sporty, modern, street and young: something perfect for the model's lifestyle, activity, and of course, age. We also considered what will look good on his body type and complexion.
Picture
So, maybe now you're wondering who won the styling challenge? Well, well, well..... here's the result:

Team Thunder, composed of bloggers Ann Purificacion, Krish Rai, Vyn Radovan and Gia Jamias, who styled Sam Abuhijle,
 was hailed as the winner.

YEHEY!! WE WON!!! Ta-daaaahhhhhh!!! So happy!!!

And because we won, we were given a GC to spend in this store! I decided to let my husband do the shopping because he'll love the items more since he is a basketball fan and plays the sport himself. Here are some of the NBA store merchandise that we got, we chose to get our toddler some toys too! Hehe, so cute!
Picture
Here we are the winning team with the judges. Thanks so much for choosing the look that we made as the winner! :)
