Wherever each of this month’s talented contributors go in search
of a rush, there’s one piece of clothing they never travel without
Denim shirts
are our second
skin!
Marie Calica
MAKEUP ARTIST
For this issue
dolled up our
good-looking models Jenny
and Gustavo for the cover and
cover feature
I never travel without…
my
favorite accessory, a multi-
colored scarf that I bought in
a market in India. It keeps me
warm and gives an otherwise
plain outfit a burst of color.
Lester V. Ledesma
FARMER
For this issue
chronicled
the journey of the
barako
from seed to cup in “Its bean a
pleasure”
I never travel without…
buying
a souvenir message shirt — it’s
kitschy but practical, and sends
the right message of whatever
I’m feeling at the moment. My
favorite says, “Go, go curry!”
Donna Cuna-Pita
STYLIST
For this issue
searched for
modern and trendy threads by
young Pinoy designers
I never travel without…
an
embroidered cover-up to
pull over a bikini if I’m going
to a warm place. For cooler
climates, my wrinkle-free
jersey little black dress is as
versatile as it gets.

WRITER
For this issue
made like a local
in Vietnam’s major cities for
“Vietnam, like a local”
I never travel without…
my
merino wool V-neck, even in
tropical countries. It’s great for
insulation against over-zealous
aircon and looks good with a
button-down shirt — if I may
say so myself!
Ruben V. Nepales
WRITER
For this issue
chatted with
the lead stars, director and
producer of
The Bourne Legacy
I never travel without…
my
favorite 100%-cotton blue dress
shirt — it has a pocket for my
cell phone or passport for when
I’m traveling. It goes with pants,
blazer, jacket or sweater in any
color.

PHOTOGRAPHERS
For this issue
went on a merry
romp around the streets of Taal
for the cover and cover feature,
“The way we wore”
We never travel without…
a
denim shirt that’s thick enough
to keep you warm in the airport,
and rugged enough to make
you feel comfortable in the sun
as well as the nightclub.

Zeta Yap
WRITER
For this issue
hopped off
the beaten path all the way
to Biliran
I never travel without…
my
checkered keffiyeh scarf,
because it’s so versatile — it
can work as headgear, blanket,
mat, pillow, or mask for dusty
habal-habal
rides!
Xueling Li
WRITER
For this issue
slurped Asia’s
different noodle dishes for
“Asia’s noodle trail”
I never travel without…
a
sarong
— it keeps me warm
on planes and in hostel dorms,
and jazzes up the plain, knee-
length dress I always pack.
Its striking prints can also get
strangers talking to you.
