Penshoppe’s Ronnie Alonte and Loisa Andalio are playing Cupid this Valentine’s Day with a style guide to create the perfect matchy moments.
The reel and real-life couple has been booked and busy this 2022, kicking off the year starring in a trending music video by Filipino rock band Parokya ni Edgar, joining the cast of upcoming limited series The Goodbye Girl, currently shooting for their first lead teleserye Love in 40 days set to premiere this 2022, and working on a new Penshoppe campaign that’s underway.
With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, how the two will for sure manage to spend some quality time together outside their bustling schedules is beyond us, but we do know how the famously stylish pair is going to keep it fashionable and fresh.
In this Penshoppe exclusive, LoiNie is unlocking the secrets to creating the perfect matchy moment with a perfect match – just in time to celebrate the month of love.
Perfect Match Tip #1: Know When to Match
Both as actors and as a couple, Ronnie and Loisa are no strangers to events and special occasions. They know exactly when to dress up, dress down, and most importantly – dress to match.
Loisa: The best time to match is when you’re celebrating – anniversaries, milestones, birthdays, and the like. Ang saya balikan ng mga ganoong moments in photos or videos tapos makikita niyo ‘yung effort that you both put into celebrating and complementing each other.
Ronnie: Gusto ko ‘yung nagma-match tuwing may event, because it’s one way of showing that you are there as a team, na nandoon kayo para sa isa’t isa to support and cheer each other on.
Perfect Match Tip #2: Complement, Not Clash
According to LoiNie, color and dress code are key.
Ronnie: Agree on the color palette and on the dress code – if casual ba or formal. Madali na gumawa ng isang buong look that complements each other’s outfits when you agree on those two things.
Loisa: Pareho naming gusto ‘yung earth tones, which are perfect for when you want to match because they’re all complementary. Thankfully, Penshoppe has a lot of earthtoned pieces, kaya hindi kami nahihirapan maghanap ng new styles when we want to switch up our matchy moments.
Perfect Match Tip #3: Agree on a Go-To Matchy ‘Fit
Ronnie and Loisa’s secret to creating at least one cute couple moment even on the busiest of days is having agreed upon go-to matchy outfits.
Loisa: Hoodies are our favorite and our go-to fashion piece! I usually pick out the most oversized hoodie I can find, and I pair it with high socks and shoes. It’s comfortable but still very casually stylish at the same time.
Ronnie: Hoodie and shorts for me! Kami ni Loisa are almost always on-the-go talaga, so important for us ‘yung comfort and style that a hoodie ensemble wraps into one.
Perfect Match Tip #4: Be Open to Each Other’s Ideas
Loisa says that whenever she runs out of ideas for a look, Ronnie jumps in to share his – complete with pegs!
Ronnie: Minsan nga din we pick each other’s outfits for fun. Pareho kami ni Loisa ng taste in fashion and we’re very honest with each other, kaya hindi kami hirap o ilang magbigay ng advice sa isa’t isa.
Loisa: I trust in Ronnie’s judgment and he trusts in mine. We work as a team on and off-screen, kaya I’m comfortable with sharing my ideas and getting his sa lahat ng bagay, including fashion. That’s why it’s so fun to create these matchy moments with Ronnie.
