On Analog

A few weeks back, THE Julo Cope did a shoot using his analog camera. Brilliant as always. Loving how it looked like it was ripped from an 80s magazine, particularly the second photo.

Eid

/ēd/

Noun A Muslim festival, in particular. The feast marking the end of the fast of Ramadan.

In the Middle East, or in Doha rather:

1) It's not allowed to eat nor drink in public during Ramadan

2) You can only be seen eating during Iftar (after sunset)

3) You can only drink alcohol/smoke in private places (i.e. hotels), well even if it's not Ramadan (Ha!)

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.

Bicol 2012

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)

Doha's sunset.

Doha's Cityline.

Let's build more of these, 2013.

Park Spaces

One of my favorite shoots indeed. Had a quick photoshoot with the ever-so-humble Julo Cope and I turned to love parking lots that day. I need not to elaborate on how talented this man is, and let his works speak for thyselves here and here.

I have been dreaming of interesting scenes in my sleep and they were cream pies, aliens, decent whores and black people all at the same time. Oh this head. If I could only write a novel combining all my dreams this week, I could be rich.

Anyway, found this interesting velvet leggings on a sale rack at Terranova weeks ago and would you believe if I tell you I bought this for Php149?? Believe.
