Louis Vuitton!
Date: November 20th, 2009
I was not a fan of Louis Vuitton before, just because I never found the design I wanted. Well, surprise surprise. Last June, (yup, super late post) I got one in Hong Kong!

New Hair-do!
Date: August 9th, 2009
I’ve been wanting to cut my hair for weeks now.. So, when I had the time to actually sit down and wait for Nino, ACHDB’s resident senior stylist, to conjure something on my hair, I went for it!! I was feeling experimental so I didn’t mind the wait and multiple touch ups just so Nino will be satisfied with the result! I’m so happy for the result too! Let me share you what I got!

My dream is becoming a reality
Date: June 3rd, 2009
Today is my first day at Australian College of Hair Design and Beauty (ACHDB). I’m just so excited about it!
Here’s a background of the story:
In the past three or four months I’ve been really thinking about my future. If I would still be editing or writing in the next five years and will I want to be in this profession by the time I start my own family.
Then I start to think what I would really love to do, and that is to be a make-up artist. I love prettifying myself, creating natural and glam looks. But I could never do it on somebody else’s face. But I found out that it is something I would love to do and learn. I started researching on make-up classes and found two in the Makati area. So yeah, imagine me going to Makati everyday after work, so I thought, yeah, why not?! But I have to save up first for the tuition fee and other expenses I would be spending, thinking to myself, by next year, I’ll go for it.
But looks like fate got something else planned for me. About three weeks ago, my teamate (Aby) ym’ed me an article where my senior (Benok 
was featured in. It was Q TV’s site, wmn.ph. So I read the article, browsed the site since it was all about women, general kikay stuffs, health and so on. Then, that’s when I saw the article. An Australian college was opening in Podium! Wow! Coincidentally, my family and some friends were going to dinner in Podium. So I said to myself, why not check it out. So I did, and my! Was I impressed. It was a real school, with classrooms, a small pantry, library, and faculty room. Wow! I got so excited over the fact that this was the most convenient place for me to learn to be a make-up artist.
So, I put that idea aside, since I know I have to really save up first. The next week, someone from ACHDB texted me, saying they have a free make-up seminar all I have to do is send in my full name. I said to myself, what the heck, it’s free anyway. So I went to the seminar and saw how an Australian teacher faked a bruise, burn, and an open wound using some special make up. Then I got the chance to talk to some of the college’s teachers and even its director, Geni Gonzales. I got some price list of the course and whoa! was I surprised! Enrolling here would be like studying in a culinary school! But I knew I had to act now, if I even want to make my dream into reality. And so I did. Just last week, I enrolled, and uuhhmm paid. Well, I actually had to loan the money from Papa, since I didn’t have that kind of cash.
I hope in the future I’ll be one of the Philippines’ finest make-up artist (cross your fingers!)
Watch out for fashionable and make-up related posts in the future!
No more shoe storage problems
Date: February 25th, 2009
So are you having trouble storing your shoes like me? And do you hate fumbling around shoe boxes, trying to figure out where you put those black pumps or comfortable flats? Well, our prayers have been answered! I found this Shoe Wheel by Rakku that will really be a big help!
Make the rain your fashion aid not destroyer
Date: December 13th, 2008
Walking in the rain, under an umbrella may be romantic for some. But the feeling of squishy toes, muddy feet, and wet shoes are not at all appealing. Urgh! a ruined fashionable outfit! You can’t really step out with your flip-flops because you know your feet will just get wet and muddy, but wearing your comfy heels to work is not exactly the best thing to do too because you know slipping and falling is a major possibility; not to mention you’ll ruin your shoes and probably not be able to wear it again. But FC found a solution for your rain-related shoes dilemma.
Rajo Laurel and Plains & Prints join forces
Date: October 11th, 2008
What do you get when the trendy brand Plains & Prints and one of Philippines’ top designer Rajo Laurel join forces? A fashionable clothing line or more specifically, Rich And Famous (R.A.F.) No, the name of the line doesn’t mean you have to be rich and famous to purchase a piece of clothing. It is actually more of the opposite. Yes! this means you can now afford a Rajo Laurel design for only about more than a thousand pesos. Can you believe that?!
