2015 had been an amazing year in terms of fashion. We have seen the strong comeback of the much-loved denim skirt in various cuts from A-line to pencil skirts, the feminine bardot trend, chic turtlenecks, and so much more! But as Heidi Klum always says, "In fashion one day you're in, and the next day you're out." And here are the ten trends you should say Auf Wiedersehen to in 2016.

From Our Readers: Maybe I'm Just Too In Love To Let Go

Maybe I'm just too in love to let it go, but now I swear, I will. I swear, after this letter, I will never fall any drop of tears for you.


I'll woke up every morning making my reason that this is the day I'm getting stronger than yesterday. And yes, I am, you'll see.

Ask Candy: What's One Holiday Tradition You Look Forward To Every Year?

Is there one holiday tradition that you always look forward to when Christmas is near? There are usually reunions and get-togethers this time of the year and it's nice to buckle down and take a break from the usual hustle and bustle. We hope that you're having the best time on break and getting your much-deserved chill time with your friends and family. Here's to an amazing 2015 and we're looking forward to more sweet moments with you guys in the years to come!


 





Sam Potenciano, Editor In Chief

My family always retreats to Tagaytay after Christmas where the signal is non-existent and I end up finally finishing books and taking naps with my dogs all day. It's the best. —Sam, Editor In Chief





Steph Yapnayon, Art Director
Looking forward to reunions with friends and family. :) —Steph, Art Director


Angel Constantino Aquino, Managing Editor
Attending Simbang Gabi and having breakfast with my neighbors after the mass—especially on my birthday! Angel, Managing Editor


Dyan Zarzuela, Entertainment and Features Editor
I love that lull between Christmas and New Year, when the world slows down and there's time to breathe and do absolutely nothing. —Dyan, Entertainment and Features Editor


Ning Nuñez, Fashion and Beauty Assistant
As much as how dangerous and illegal it can be, I just love lighting up fireworks! —Ning, Fashion and Beauty Assistant


Bianca Mascenon, Fashion and Beauty Assistant
Our extended family would have this party on the 24th(ish) that starts at Midnight. We'd all be playing those ridiculous party games where everyone just cheats and pushes each other around. It's really funny how everyone gets so competitive just to win a 20-peso bill. —Bianca, Fashion and Beauty Assistant


Macy Alcaraz, Web Managing Editor

For the first time last year, we started a new tradition: watching my only niece open her gifts on Christmas Eve. Looking forward to doing the same this year and getting to play with her all evening! —Macy, Web Managing Editor








Erin Torrejon, Web Fashion and Beauty Assistant

Spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day eating my heart out with all my cousins while making kwento about anything and everything. —Erin, Associate Web and Fashion Editor





Ayessa De La Pena, Web Editorial Assistant
Christmas at my grandparents' place and our high school class' annual Christmas get-together. :) —Ayessa, Web Editorial Assistant

From Our Readers: To the Guy Who Tried

It's true that love comes, when you least expect it. When it does, it is either you're prepared or not. I hate to admit it to you that when you came, I was unprepared and I didn't have any idea what to do. I told you that I never had a boyfriend before and that you were the first one to show appreciation for me, and with that you agreed to take it slow, and so did I.

WATCH: Nadine Lustre Prank Calls James Reid and Yassi Pressman

Nadine Lustre


Apart from having great personal style, Nadine Lustre also happens to have a wicked sense of humor, which peeps through every now and then on screen and on her Instagram feed. When asked if she were up for prank calling Yassi PressmanJames Reid, and Andre Paras (who was out of reach that time she did the challenge, huhu!) she gamely whipped out her phone and started dialing.

From Our Readers: A Heartbreak Survival Guide

1. Acceptance


Accept the fact that it's over. When you wake up tomorrow, you won't receive a text from him. When you see him in school, he won't run to give you a hug. He won't text you good night. Don't wait for any of these because chances are, it wont happen. Accept the fact that he came to your life, and now he's gone, and you need to start living without him again. You were able to do that before he came, I guarantee you can do that again. Maybe a little different but I can assure you it will be great.
