BTS Candy Shoot

 A few months back, I had a shoot with Candy magazine and was styled by the Candy Council of Cool girls. Honestly, I really remembered my high school days during the shoot because I was exactly like them 6 years back. Oh, memories. 

We shot at Heima store (such a cool place) in Cubao X. It was my first time in that area and I was amazed by all the stores there. I'm definitely going back again. Oh, except that there was a really rude guard that kept stopping us every time I'd take outfit photos. I understand if it's his job to stop us if we need a permit but even if I was inside the Heima store and the photographer was a few steps outside the store he'd still  stop us. Anyway, good vibes come back. 

 There were so many adorable furniture and home decos. I love this closet with "exotic chinese food" written all over it. Now speaking of food...

  What's the best meal to order during tapings or shoots? Mcdonalds!!! I just had to order Big n' Tasty burger meals for everyone. Yes, I am a messy eater. The Council of Cool girls were too shy to dig in so I had to be the first to eat before they all started eating. 

It was a very short and fun shoot and I was so happy with my look. I actually haven't been styled for the longest time since they always want my style and personality for shoots. In fairness, nag research and COC girls! Hahaha. I still can't show you guys the final layout since the issue isn't out yet, but watch out for it. It's a very special feature. BMS.

Mood Scents

(WAGW hat, H&M dress, Aldo wedges)

 For a fresh day walking around the city, I like the scent Beyonce Heat Rush. It's very fresh and sexy. Not a very serious scent at all so it's good to wear during the day.

(American Apparel skirt made top, Chanel shorts, Gold Dot wedges)

 For a sweeter look, I prefer using Rihanna's Reb'l Fleur. A bit strong and has a flower-like scent to lure romantic guys. Perfect to use for dates.

(Taiwan brand top, Jellybean skirt, Alexander Mcqueen clutch, H&M booties)

 For an everyday scent (because I'm usually edgy),  I prefer using the Paris Hilton Passport Tokyo or South Beach scent. It's light and fresh so you can never go wrong with it. 

As we all know, you have to smell good to look and feel good. Know your perfect scent. BMS.

Black and White

Crow earring, Stylebreak sheer top, Zara leather shorts

Mia Casa cross ring and silver ring, +-x% snake ring 

 Michael Antonio wedges

I had a shoot last week for a magazine. The shoot was so fun because everyone knew each other and the whole team was so easy to work with. Being with Jasmine Curtis-Smith (one of my bestest friends btw) made it so easy to pose naturally. 

I decided to wear a plain white sheer top and leather shorts- simple but striking. Of course, the shoes made it extra fab.

Thank you Jazzy for taking my photos. I miss you! BMS.

Chalk BTS

 I really wish I own this much make up.

 Photographers and stylists gathered for this shoot

 Bloggers. Camille, Lissa and Patricia

I love how we're all terno. Actually, the requirement was to wear cream/white, but as usual, Patricia and I still wore a hint of black.

 Thank you gals for doing my make up and hair.
