He makes a fuss over what I wear on TV,” says “Unang Hirit” host Luane Dy of actor Carlo Gonzalez, her boyfriend of five years.
Luane claims Carlo is a conservative guy, who objects to her wearing on TV outfits that are too short and revealing. “This becomes a cause of quarrel sometimes,” she tells Living Stars. “I always ask him, ‘How come my bosses at the news department agree to this outfit and you don’t?’ I tell him he should understand that dressing up is part of my work as a TV personality.”
As a compromise, Luane says she tries to “dress down” when she goes out on dates with Carlo. “I wear his T-shirts! When I wear one of my dresses, I make sure I have undershirts or cycling shorts. He checks them.”
“I admit that I get hurt and irritated by this sometimes,” she adds. “When it happens, I stop talking to him and just keep quiet.”
Asked about her pet peeve, Luane says, “It’s waiting for Carlo to get dressed. He’s so slow at it. It takes him an hour to take a bath and another hour to choose his outfit—to think we’re only going to watch a movie. He says we’ll be seen in public so he has to be presentable.”
Fave shoes
“I bought this when I first went to the United States,” Luane says of a pair of black slippers from Louis Vuitton. “I love slippers more than anything.”
“WALK in them first before buying them. Make sure they’re comfy,” says the shoe expert.
Luane prefers platforms to stilettos, like her pair of animal prints from Top Shop. “It’s a must-have,” she says. Luane also boasts of her neon green and hot pink heels from Aldo. “I like striking colors. I won’t have a problem crossing the street at night while wearing them,” she quips.
Luane adores her pair of gold pumps from Zara because “this matches all outfits. It’s my ever-reliable pair.”
