The Year That Was

As I lounge in this first few days of the year, I course through all the strawberry-filled memories of 2012. "It was a good one, a good one" I always say. Looking back on the photos captured from the past year, gives me yet again a sly smile to the Higher Power who made it possible and bearable. I officially welcome you, (yes on my own pace) 2013. Bring it.

Oh Bloodrush's first issue. Had a sweet heart attack

Channeling droopy eyes with (none other than) Af for VLM

This unforgettable window pane.

Still, my favorite VLM collection to date.

Laying our hands on every single VLM novelty piece.

And then, Ta-daa, we launched VLM's first ever novelty nifties.

Ah, I miss you, hermana.

Was one of those Bloodrush meetings over a cup of coffee. Oh the minds of these women. <3

The queens and culprits of Bloodrush

THAT. NIGHT.

Onto blue drinks and lights.

We were Spice Girls that night, and went ziggy zig ah.

StyleBible 's been a darling to me last 2012. Honored. So honored.

Always one of those dates that keep me fight for life.

My first ever climb.

Aaand BR's second issue. Woosh.

Finally, our own Coachella, Manila Music Festival

 3/4 of the hands I grew up with. Futures.

We cried and laughed at the very same time. That night, we knew, the stories over a glass of this fancy drink,  made us the women we now are.

We both didn't shed a tear. Because for us, I never left. It's all about the mindset, honey. (At the airport going to Doha)

Let's build more of these, 2013.

Manila Music Festival 2012

 

May 1, 2012


I have been in a blogging downtime as you might notice (or not) occupying myself with VLM accessory production, bazaars, Bloodrush articles and launch. Sometimes, you'll be having so much in your hands you almost can't handle it. But in the end, the rush and satisfaction will always be unexplainable, and you'll look at it with a real smile.

Now looking into my backlogs--The Manila Music Festival. Af and I were totally excited creatures after getting an invite from the organizers. Who wouldn't? Months ago, we dedicated a VLM collection for such kind, and imagined ourselves wearing comfy clothes and dusting our feet with sand while listening to eargasmic music. What made this more special? I was with my fellow Bloodrush queens.

That was a magical night. I'll see you next year MMF.

Thank you Aspen for bringing us here!
