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.

Hair Enchantments

Finally, after 3 long years of digesting the idea of me having this hair comes to an end. I have been sporting long tresses ever since I can remember, and thought that having it this short was waaay far from being possible because of my face shape. But blah on insecurities and hello body (and face shape) appreciation!

And to my haircut peg: Audrey Tautou.

Doha Corniche, September 2013.

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.

Zebo + Aspire

Doha's Cityline.

Let's build more of these, 2013.

Nature Pleasure

Leather jacket - Red Tag || Black tank - H&M || Washed jeans - gifted || Boots - Thrifted

We all have this favorite spot in every place/country we are in. It spells the serenity you need after work, or just help you shrug off a nasty day.I discovered mine a few days back. Zebo and I saw this hill where you can perfectly watch the sunset, read heart-shaped letters, while lying on a baroque printed picnic mat, enjoying a cup of jasmine tea. This is also overlooking a pond surrounded with these flowers, and a playground, seeing mommies running after these heavenly-eyed arab children. We enjoy this kind of nature pleasure.

A shoutout to Zebo for helping out a friend to document her outfit posts. Finally, someone here who identically share thoughts about life. Thank you darling, thank you =)
