I also want to thank Mich for being my package warlock. Hihi. Sorry if I keep rerouting my packages to your office. Just keep bribing the guard and your receptionist ok? Hehe! Will share with you guys what those packages contain tomorrow since it's for my big blog giveaway!!! More sponsors...
I'll be giving away GCs, beauty items, clothes, shoes, bags and accessories. So you wouldn't want to miss out! I know I won't. If I could, I would! Haha.
And of course I didn't end up crying over all the pretty things I couldn't have. Haha. Here are my own new pretty things!
Sandie heels from Denisekatipunera, bag from Trinkets Royale and chiffon shirt from Flattering Tops
Can't wait to debut all of them!:) I might even wear them in one outfit post. They make a cute combination noh?;)
That's it for now. Will blog about the event tomorrow but for now I have to sleep! More meetings later. Please don't call or text me from 8am-1pm! HAHA. ;) Ciao bellas.
I decided to name my latest collection--Four Seasons. It's because all the pieces are wearable all throughout the year (well that's just 2 seasons for us Pinays lol). These pieces are now up for sale on my online store! Some are already reserved but you might still see something you like. :)
Watch out for my giveaway featuring the new online clothing store--Stubborn Eve! :) Plus some other prizes from Ichigo and Gold Dot. I've just been busy the last couple of days that's why I wasn't able to push through with my giveaway. But I will put it up very soon!:)
You can also head over to SCHU's blog. They have an ongoing giveaway--Bag a Schu bag! They will be giving away 5 pretty bags to lucky winners. All you have to do is share with them how their blog inspired you to style your schu!:) And I was touched with one of the entries. One reader--Tanya--shared how I inspired her to buy the strappy leopard design shoes/heels. Read all about it HERE!
Things like this makes me so happy and inspires me more.
I love you guys and thanks for all the support. I truly appreciate it. :)
So after my successful styling stint for Marc and Mike Yu, I got asked again to style for Outbox Media. It was for an advertisement. I was supposed to do this stint with one of my close friend from FIP, but he bailed out at the last minute due to illness. So I asked Ana of Anagon to go with me instead--luckily she said yes! It was a very challenging gig since we were asked to do 12 layouts with 4 models. I can only imagine, if I ended up doing the job alone I might be dead by now. It lasted for 10 hours! Supreme haggardness (in tagalog: loren haggarda!).
I still don't have the final layouts but here are some shots taken from my Lumix cam. Some BTS and feeling professional shots! Haha. And turns out most of the crew are Thomasians. Yeees, go USTe! Haha.
Good Morning Ana! Sorry I'm late. Hee.
Pang facebook. Haha.
With the fab Anton Patdu--makeup artist!
And UST CommArts baby Kresta! Talented girl :)
Ana and I struggled for this shoot since we don't have enough resources (12 pegs! cmooon). We also didn't have the freedom to do what we wanted--client has the last say. To be honest, I really wanted to backout thea day before the shoot coz I don't like it when I don't feel ready. The peg/themes were always changing (just normal for styling stints) and I didn't know what to expect. Before I do gigs, I usually spend 1 day researching how I'd execute the looks and prepare all the outfits and group them altogether. For this particular stint, I felt like I was in the dark the whole time! But Meisha, the organizer, was really cooperative and helped a lot. They provided almost all the clothes and other "costumes", to my relief. In the end, I felt like a winner! Such an achievement. It was such a great experience (even with a lot of boo boos) 'coz we learned to be creative, work under extreme pressure and improvise--a LOT! I was really glad Ana came with her 2 bags of accessories. Aylavet!
First Peg: Natural/White look
Ana in action.
Cristal wearing my clothes. :)
She's so professional and nice and gorgeous!
Theme: Ballerina
Problems:
We didn't have enough tights which caused a mini ruckus.
The models didn't look nice with full tights on.
We didn't have enough tutus except for the 2 pairs I brought with me.
Solutions:
They eliminated the group shot.
I murdered my black tights to use as ankle/legs ribbon.
Tip: when styling always bring an emergency kit with you composed of scissors, different tapes (especially double sided tape), pins, band-aids! Really comes in handy.
Amzaing pose girly! My neck hurts just by looking at her.
Group shot!
and another.
Candid.
Theme: ANIME
By this time, we were told that we barely have an hour left to finish the shoot. Pressure to the max! But I'm glad we were still able to execute the right peg.
Our masterpiece Cristal! Hehe!
Favorite shot.
Behind the scene!
So cute.
Theme: KAWAII
In action yeeees.
2NE1sh??? haha
The shoot wrapped up at around 9pm. I was sooo tired coz I haven't slept for 24 hours! It's a miracle I didn't pass out. Lol. It was also a blessing that I asked Ana coz her accessories saved us. Haha. Thanks Ana! Had so much fun with you. Let's talk about our next projects! *wink*. Thank you Outbox for making us part of this challenging shoot. Til our next collaboration!:)
