Peek into VLM PLAY (BTS)

June 23, 2012

Photographs from last week's shoot for VLM's next collection. Marveled earlier on raw files from the shoot and of course, Af and I exchanged woooh's and aah's. As always.

Can't wait to share it with all of your glowing hearts!

And here are the angels that made it possible:

Dating one of my childhood bestfriends will always be refreshing and pleasing in my heart's eyes.

I just turned 22. Started it right with good workout, sunshine, silent moments of sheer gratitude to the higher power, and great (and lounging) moments throughout the day with special people I hold dearest.

I couldn't be more thankful enough for all the blessings I had for the past year, and that includes you.

Much love,

Riz

VLM: The Queen Bee Collection

Viva La Manika's 3rd accessory collection and my favorite one to date. Imagine sparrows, cupcakes, knobs, mermaids and many others that tickles your fancy. Have you visited? Go ahead, take a peak.

Make that statement.

Good heavens for this Jag collection. It was a badassdom (badass kingdom. Yeah, terms I make)

Thanks Af and Af's friend for the passes

Loving the look (right)

Search for Your Escape

May 15, 2012

Today we escaped from our realities. Braved stunning waves, cloud-gazed and buried our feet in the sand. But as hardworking women as we are, Af, Centimosa and I snuck time for a Bloodrush shoot.

Summer 2012 will be always be the best one (so far). 

One of the best photos that day.

My Favorite. Ugh stunning    One I could frame and hang in my bedroom.

What we did that day: Frolic, lounge, lounge, and lounge.

Now we work--and play

All we ever wanted--laugh and dance out of beat.

What was your summer like?
