Casually browsing my Facebook timeline and saw British Vogue's update on Milan Fashion Week. They already posted an album of the Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2015 Ready-to-Wear collection, and the clothes literally took my breath away. I love how detailed the pieces are and how the clothes mold the female figure perfectly. I honestly would really love to meet Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana in the future. Check out the fabulous pieces under the cut.
These days, I find it so hard to film because I have to prioritize school works (plates, researches, and the like) But one of my goals this year is to really focus on updating my YouTube channel and fill it up with videos! For the fourth episode of The Art Diary, I chose the selfie queen -- Kylie Jenner. I had a hard time on choosing what photo should I paint since she has like over a million photos posted online!
For the Episode 3 of The Art Diary Series, I chose one of my favorite YouTube personalities, Katy Bellotte also popularly known as hellokatyxo. I remember the first time I watched one of her videos on YouTube; it was three years ago and I’m positive that it was a room tour video because it’s always been my guilty pleasure watching room tour videos. It’s just so much fun to watch! Other videos I’m also obsessed with watching are definitely what’s in my (school, beach, office, etc) bag videos and random do-it-yourself project videos.
I was honestly not expecting to go to this year's Preview Ball that is why when I received a direct message from StyleBible on Twitter, I was surprised. I had mixed emotions because I am a big fan of Preview Magazine ever since and I always admire their anniversary issues but also I have no idea on what to wear since the theme of this year's best dressed ball is Skin City (eeep!)
I recently went to Davao with my sister Say Tioco Artillero and Joyce Sola! They were having a make-up workshop there and Say tagged me along because they need a photographer. It was my first time going to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and riding an airplane, so it was definitely a very memorable experience.
Since I was only going to watch one show this season, I decided to wear something simple. A basic black top I got for free from Cache Cache (with a minimum of P1000 purchase) and a cute bird print skirt (which I borrowed from my sister) from the SM Store. I also used the recent pastel mint green clutch I bought from the SM Store. I love it to death! I wish they sell the clutch in other dainty pastel colors also :)
It’s always exciting seeing the creations of local designers here in the Philippines. It makes me feel even more inspired to achieve my lifelong dream of becoming a designer myself. I have a long way to go but I will truly work hard to achieve my dream. This year, I had an opportunity to experience Philippine Fashion Week again. I’ve been going ever since 2009. One day, hopefully I will go there as a designer (fingers crossed!)
A year ago, I started making a speed up video of myself painting. It was very challenging to film it back then because I was just using my iPod Touch with no tripod or anything, so I decided to just sit on the floor while doing the artwork and place my iPod on top of an open drawer. I really had a hard time filming but I still had fun. I was certain that I will be creating more speed up painting videos and put it up on my YouTube channel but when school started, it was kind of impossible with all the plates (disadvantage of being a fine arts student).
