U N C E N S O R E D

It's been awhile since I've posted an entry at my blog because of some personal space confinement. It's like an induced social coma to myself. I guess, it was like my post-grad jitters. Now, I'm back with renewed perspective.

"Leather and Proper"

@Penshoppe Top, WAGW Leather Full Skirt

Today, we had our Baccalaureate Mass and Graduation Rehearsal. It still feels surreal knowing that I'm going to march this Saturday. Knowing this, I'm only a few steps closer to my dreams. Dreams do come true.

I decided to wear something that would embrace my "being different" from others today. Leather is not something you would think off when "semi-formal" is the required look. Although, I've managed to get away with it. To balance the    edgy-goth aura of the skirt, I paired it with a flimsy and soft long sleeve blouse. Thus, creating that prim and proper look. 

Can't wait to legitimately walk for graduation!

Thank you @StylebiblePh and @MarkBuenaobra

Time that I can be mad, sad, and gag

But, these won't help

Try and try

Fly and fly

Despair might face me

Death might catch me

But, I wont let regrets takeover

Bike and Hands

Unfinished Business

Planning my first official shoot for Rappler.com, I thought of swimsuits. It's one of those fashion topics that girls, fashion and non-fashion oriented, could relate to. In reality, women have different body types, and picking the right swimwear is as important to picking the right undies for yourself! So, this Rappler.com Article is a reference guide for Filipinas out there! To know more, click "me."

I'm glad to know that they're now giving an avenue- a platform- for young creative entrepreneurs who are interested in building their own brands. And  I'm also a big believer of Filipino Artisans and a supporter of young designers of our country. I know it is challenging to start a new business, but there are organizations that willingly helps.With that, 98-B is currently opening its door to interested young creative business owners.
