Raffles Design + Benefits Salon

Been going to lots of meetings nowadays for the upcoming Bloggers United Summer Bazaar. It's tiring but worth it! Wish us luck!:) So Ana and I went to Raffles Design Institute last week  to meet with it's owner and their marketing person Meg. Nosebleed galore but it went great! Finally got the chance to visit & tour the campus. :) But first, what I wore!


Thrifted top, Posh Wardrobe trousers, +-x% collar tips, from Mich mom shoes

It's funny how Ana and I ended up wearing almost the same outfit! Same peg lang. Hehe. We both wanted to look sleek and chic for the meeting. Pumped up an otherwise classic outfit with my new collar tips from PlusMinusTimesDivide and my leopard heels which was a hand me down from Mich's mom!

Here are the rest of the photos!

That ends our tour! RAFFLES is an international design school that is relatively new (they've only been here 2010) but already making a mark. Seriously, they have the best facilities and teachers so kahit mahalia super worth it naman. They don't offer short courses so you really need to be 100% decided if you enroll. Visit their website for more infos!:)

After RAFFLES, Ana and I decided to kill time by you guessed it right, eating na naman. Haha. Decided to try out Sweet Bella cafe this time. It's a little pricey but as you know walang pricey pricey sa taong super mega gutom!

Stylistas Gone Wild!


Stylistas--that's how we call our styling class in Fashion Institute. Fun noh?:) After 3 sessions we've all become style sisters (including the men, hee). Classes are fun everytime. Such a happy place.


So 2 weeks ago we had our first major project--menswear photoshoot. We were given 5 themes. We were divided into 3 groups so we could all work together and we could share models.


GMA was also shooting with us the whole day for their Fashion Styling segment for Kapuso: Jessica Soho. For the record, the segment was too short! To think we were shooting ALL day. Sayang the other scenes they didn't include. Oh well. TV.

To cut the story short, here's how our team did:


Photobucket
"Twilight" - styled by Dette


Photobucket
"Uniform" - styled by Pretty Posh


Photobucket
"Kawaii" - styled by Honey


Photobucket
"Dandy" - styled by Charmaine


Photobucket

"Homeless/Hobo" - styled by Me!:)


More photos from our photographer Von Lazaro soon! For the meantime, please bear with my own shots...




















I was on my feet the whole day, so I watched SATC2 to de-stress. Fun movie. :)


And yeah, the movie was ALL about the fab outfits.

P.S.
I'm sorry if the photos are small. I just don't have the time to upload each one in photobucket, so I directly upload them here. Apparently, Blooger's large images are not "large" enough. :c

But you can view the bigger images by clicking on each one. If you're interested enough. Hee:D
