Gossip, Dots, and Designer Bags
I had a quick but fun shoot for a magazine feature with my good college friend, Roxxi, today! (I missed you Roxx!!!)
This is my favorite photo… I think it’s very “Blair and Serena”-ish!
Getting dressed up was fun after months of just being in shorts and t-shirts a.k.a Arki attire. Haha!
Roxxi looking so cuuuuuuute and chic in a blue and white Zara dress, Gucci bag,...

The Philippine's FIRST Beauty Magazine!
FINALLY.
We don’t have to sort through the pages of our local fashion magazines (don’t get me wrong, I like them!) for beauty features anymore.
That’s becauuuuuuuuuse… We now have a local magazine solely dedicated to just that, BLUSH MAGAZINE — THE Ultimate Beauty Source, of which I’m also very happy to now be a part of! :D
And now we have our very own Beauty...
Gold, Peach, Coral, and Attitude
When you’re 18, a little goes a looooong way. At least with Sophie, it does. ;)
Gold eyes.
(Yes, we were doing her make up on the hallway! haha!)
Peach cheeks.
(I envy her natural ultra-rosy cheeks!)
Coral Lip.
Attitude.
But remember, Dumpling, you’re only 18 once. You gotta put sunblock on, especially when you train (Sophie’s a varsity softball player) or your...

*Blush*ing on my Hundredth Post
I can be a little sentimental. Who counts their posts, right? But just for me, I wanted this 100th post to be special. Luckily, a worthy subject has come my way. :)
I’ve been rambling on and on about make up tips and a few tricks these past few months, you might have learned a thing or two. Or at least, I hope you did.
So on this 100th post, I would have to divulge one of my TOP BEAUTY...

So I put on my make up, borrowed a dress, wore my Chinese Laundry heels, and WENT ON A DATE IN A LIMO! So Aria Montgomery and Ezra Fitz right??? Oh how I wish. I am such a Pretty Little Liar (fan)!
This was actually for The Black Fleet shoot… Yes, the limo service taking Justin Bieber around town when he comes over for his concert! Hopefully, my dear Adam Levine too!!!
This is the...

Summer Brights, Rainbow Shadows, and the Black...
One of my best friends, Isabella Jose, started a limo service business called The Black Fleet with her siblings. She asked me to model and do make up for a shoot last Sunday, and I happily obliged. :)

oil pastel + watercolor
I saw this in one of my folders and realized I miss drawing/painting non-technical drawings…
Hope II by Gustav Klimt
Recreated it in oil pastel and watercolor for a drawing and painting class I had when I was in Ateneo under Brendan Goco (let’s shoot soon, totoo na! haha.)
Love the crazy colors…
Tricky tricky watercolor.
