HOT/TOP looks, by hype + freshness = Thumbs Up!

    A friend just buzzed me out of the blue saying congratulations that I'm now showing on the TOP list of Lookbookers (which for me has already a huge impact in my heart). I was never used to it. As I used to say to myself that I'm just plain ordinary cheap blogger. Well, I've come to realized that nowadays I'm already caring little less with my LB, with how things go by. I do my thing and it's up for the people to appreciate it. Reviewing this, made me realized that "Hey, they are actually liking every single of it." Which is a surprise. So then the question is: "Is it that being spontaneous is the best way to show an effortless look?" Well I bet it is about enjoyment. And that fact that you don't care what you wear as long as you feel sooo good about it!

So glad to see be one of the top

    Indeed one of the great thIngs in life is to feel your goals is coming right in front of you. You feel de-stresed whenever opportunity comes or just even after hearing a good news. With my passion for fashion, I'm very grateful to see good results with such consistency that I'm giving. It's for myself, what I love to do, what I'm inclined with ever since. I have a lot of dreams and I believe I'm making baby steps with those dreams. I'm keeping my eyes on the goals. As I also wanna bring Pinoy pride to the country! ;)

Cheers to that!

Guilty Pleasures

    Preparing my skin because of this intnse summer as I fingers crossed for our outing (hopefully this coming weekend). Since the weather is so unpredictable, I badly need my sun blocks. So I immediately contacted my dema to order some of what I will need. I can't afford to lose my skin tone. :< Plus the fact that my Doctor kept on reminding me to use sunblock to avoid skin damage. XD

SPF 60 for my face | Retenoic acid for dark spots | Salicylic Acid anti pimples a.k.a. "forever young cream" | Sunblock for my body

Ibelieve in you SPF60!

This will definitely save my skin on Saturday!
I can't believe that it turned out to be nice even if I only used my camera phone for those frappes!

    Nothing much happened with my Saturday. I just had these essentials to share how self-proclaimed vain I am. And how me my bff Maggie kill stress. "Indeed vanity is my sin". She treated me frappe because I forced her. LOL Kiddin' Then I was making fun of her saying "thank you + happy mother's day" LOL XD Meanie me! XD We were so stresed bout our works thats why we go out at least in the our nearest mall. I'm happy that whenever we see each other we laugh our asses off our stress and just fades away. :3

    So for my updates. I'm fully sched for the whole weekend of the month so I still need to think how will I squeeze in my shoot for my LB. XD Need to update it at least once a week! Hopefully I won't end up being broke by the end of the month. LOL..

ĆÍŤŔÜŜ º>ω<º

    It's been awhile since I last updated my LB, and I feel uninspired nowadays prolly because of my craziness with this coming PFW. Me and my friend Aries have been so excited for it and making "pamudmod" of emails to designers to get passes. LOL. Like I still haven't decide what to wear for my 2 days sure passes. In panic mode last weekend. As I dug out y closet I found out that I have tons of white shirts! Ok I know that Spring-Summer is my season but I dumb founded myself needing more clothes falling to other seasons aside SS. :<

    So until further selection I'm posting this pending look sketched in my scheduler dress. This is one of my new fave friendly pants! Say hello cherry blossom! *u* I feel so fresh with these pants that I bought in a thrift shop on my way home. Definitely one asset to my collection of colored pants! <3 I bought a new shirt in ARTWORK as for my daily look at work. Simply cheap but chic and cute! <3
   
What I'm wearing: Shirt, ARTWORK | Pink pants, Thrifted |  White belt, 168 | Socks, Bench | Plimsolls, SM Dept. |
For some reason of ranning out of inspiration I ended up browsing Camille Co's looks as well as Tricia. As I knew they're the girls of Pastel! (And of course I wanna be the man of it! Agree? lol) There is no look better than being clean and fresh that stands out.

White Fauxe Hermes, 168 | Beads, Thrifted | White suede, SM Accessories | Cat ring, Bazaar | Watch, Saizen | Bands, Thrifted | Mustache connector ring, Thrifted |
Hype this look here

After throwing 4 consecutive edgy looks with my blonde hair, I think it's time to shift back to my sweet Kprep look! I just love seeing my looks in varieties! And I guess part of it is surprising LB people. As some knows that I don't stick to one look, I hope this is one of the look you'd like. Sweet slash citrusy ;)

One Day I'm Gonna Live HIGH

This set was the last one of the bunch, but I decided to upload this first because it's really edgy. Plus I'm loving her background here! Stairs are one of the most artistic tools you can use in photography, because it shows edges, rounds, hardness, and angles that adds up interest to the whole photo. I wanted her to maximize the stairs and edges and be more tough than ever. The calmness of the weather as it rained created a hype feeling of very "catwoman" entity. While her dark simplicity in a sleek outfit justified a smooth tough girl.
I want to take her to the edge of glory and starting with this supportive shoot was a proof. As with my skills in photography, I'm stroking it to another level in a competing world of fashion.

Towards The Sun

This is the first set of our photoshoot with our model in the making Angela. Fortunately I brought this outfit as for her extra look but then it turned out to be that we lacked in variety with outfits as we failed in communication a bit. LOL So basically almost everything that she wore here are mine. LOL. I'm glad though I had to style her as well and not just simply be her photographer. My season has always been Spring-summer so I'm best of these styles. While for the other 2 sets, I let my 2 friends, Maggie and Sharmaine do their thing.


One important advice to make everything easy for you guys when you want to do some photoshoots with your friends: Always start at the basics. Start at conceptualizing. That is the basic foundation of your photoshoot. Because you'll see everything will just follow, from the make-up, outfits, locations and whatnot. You also need to consider the availability of the location. There will always be a bit of change of plans in any aspect because not everything will follow your plan.

This shoot is one of my front faves and hopefully will be soon followed by a guy version of it. Fingers Crossed!

Photographer: Zirjaye Santos
Make-Up Artist: Maggie Roque
Model: Angela

Will keep you posted guys!

~ŊĖØŇ-Ę✗þĿØȘĮØŊ~

So to save my Lookbook from hiatus mode, I'll be sharing a new look called "Neon Explosion"which was during my shoot with my sister. I still haven't edited her looks yet (sorry sis). LOL. It's because my schedule had been very tricky. And I prefer to go out than to be bum editing photos alone. LOL.

So! I must say that I'm loving very bright hues pieces to give a more noticeable feeling. Especially that it's summer, you cannot afford to walk around in dark hues as the heat will just absorb your shirt. This look is one of those contemporary American casual relaxed look.

I just made sure to have it very well put together before showing you guys. Not to mention my shoes was my dad's and it was altered because it used to be all worn-out. Now, I got cool boat shoes. yey! 

Shades, FLY eyewear | Necklace, Oxygen | Bag, Salvatore Mann | 

What I'm wearing: Neon shirt, Top and Bottom | Navy blue pants, Paporma | Boat shoes,  My dad's |  Belt, My sister's | Cardigan, Paporma

Platted khaki bracelet, Landmark | White beads, Thrifted | Grey studded suede, 168 | Bird ring, 168 | Neon watch, Saizen
Hype this look here

I was so busy this whole damn week and you guys know that. I'm very inclined with photoshoots more often. It's great to build up your portfolio at the same time kill the time and make yourself very productive in a way you can enjoy with friends. I'm just so excited and glad tht I'm booked every weekend with these stuffs. I feel so diverted. LOL.

P.S.: My hair is growing backto it's natural black hair. huhu any suggestions?
Should I keep it blonde? or Get back my brown hair?
Being blonde is a very high maintenance! X(


I'll keep you guys posted with my shoots!

Every single second had been so ecstatic in my nerves right before the day of the shoot. I was so overwhelmed to handle this to a friend. Who I'm praying for and been so proud ever since the start. I hope everything won't put into waste and I hope you will somehow like what I did. :)
