Finally. Yes, finally. I am actually ticking MAJOR items in my bucket list which are:
1.) Create/Make a fashion blog.
2.) Start an online store
3.) Style a fashion photo shoot.
The first, I must admit took me a long time. At first I was just content poring over pages of my fashion icons' blogs & getting inspired by their looks almost always. But really, I am a writer at heart. I may not be good (yet!) at it but I am certainly one to chronicle every single major happening in my life, so why not publish it for my fans (namely: Earl & my Mom & maybe my soul sisters Mayet & Gang-gang - haha) to enjoy.
The online store is really more of a creative outlet than anything else. In the words of my friend Grace Smith, kay ganahan man jud ta aning sanina na hala pagkakitaan nalang - to which I say, Amen.
The styling, ow em gee, is a passion I have nurtured down deep for so loooooong now. I know it would be next to impossible (or who knows one day, this dream will come true, bahala na si Lord) to style someone in a fashion shoot, but while I wait for God's perfectly timed moment to arrive, I might as well make use of my gorgeous husband Earl who is as crazy about photography as I am about clothes, to take gorgeous (overused word) photos of my friends dressed in street-style apparel in where else but my 2nd home(dbtc)
And that's exactly what we did on a sunny afternoon of Aug. 6. It didn't matter that I did Nika & Sasa's make up, created their looks/dressed & styled them & also modeled (kay suyaon man ko) all at the same time in a ngarag fashion - in the end, dreams are worth every blood, sweat and tears and for this one to finally be reality, is like it is, surreal.
Thank you Lord for the passion, for my hubby na mangunsinti ra jud, for my little sisters nika & sasa for their gung ho spirit & for being all too willing guinea pigs hahahaha, for june and mich who were literally PA's (hehe). Thank you indeed.
