Manila Tour Day 1: Marikina

Day 1 of our school tour which consisted of the Baro at Saya display at the University of the Philippines, then Marikina to check out hat, shoe and bag factories.

Jonas Brothers in Cebu!

10 - 20 - 12

The Jonas Brothers finally had a concert here in Cebu!!

I was pretty ecstatic when I found out that they were playing in Cebu as well and not only Manila. I guess I've been a Jonas Brothers fan ever since they started. I remember downloading their "on tour behind the scenes" videos and hoping that one day I could get to see them perform live. Even if they didn't have crazy stunts during this show, it was great nonetheless!! 

The opening act. Three brothers who can sing and play guitar as well. I didn't quite catch their band name though.

Ana Maria Perez de Tagle

I was pretty shocked to realize that the girl performing was actually Ana Maria from Camp Rock!! She looks so different now!!!

Finallyyyyyy the Jonas Brothers came out! We didn't get to go in the area until 8:30 (even though the concert was supposedly at 8 pm) and they came out at around almost 10 p.m. The concert ended around 11:30 but it was worth it because they sang about 20 songs? (I didn't keep track) and gave us 3 new songs!

Kevin! He was right in front of us so we had really clear shots of him. 

Joe! ♥♥

Nick!!

Cars and Clothes

What I wore to the Glam & Gear Fashion Show last October 5. Sorry for the lack of posts, I've been really busy this past week making projects and trying to finish them before deadline! I think I've never been that pressed for time in my entire life, a new experience for me. 

Anyway, I'm glad that it's over with now, I've passed all my requirements and will think about it the week after next because I'm going on vacation today!! Hooray ;) I'll be headed to Hong Kong tonight and I'm really excited about it because the last time I've been was April of this year, and I just miss it so much. 

On to the outfit.. The invitation said "Smart Casual" and so I didn't think of dressing up too much for the event.

Dress-Topshop | Polo-Zara

Shoes-Zara | Prada Bag

Watch-Marc Jacobs

I really love my Prada bag because for the longest time EVER, I've always wanted one. And I've always love this particular design because I find it really classy and timeless. Something that wouldn't be "obsolete" even after how many years and would still remain that fresh, classic look.

FIDA Cebu Turns 1!

Fashion Institute of Design and Arts, Cebu's first fashion school, turned ONE last September 14, 2012. The theme was Black/White and it was held in the school itself. I feel happy to be able to celebrate with them and to be a part of something great such as this!

Hold on to your gowns because there are a lot more pictures to see! ;)

the life of a fashion student

This little cutie pie went to school one day!

Although I may have had only 2 classes a week this sem, I still feel every bit a fashion student. School life has been fun so far, but it has also been very tiring! There are days when I go home so drained trying to finish a project, but only to realize that I wasn't able to do THAT much in terms of progress. But then, there are also days like this when unexpected things happen. :)

cute menus designed as lomo cameras

We had lunch at Sprockets Cafe and I was very happy since I hadn't been there before! The food was really good (or maybe because I was also REALLY HUNGRY at the time) and I liked their milk tea, it was more on the "milk" and sweet side though than it was on the "tea".

let's go to the beach

A super fun weekend spent at the beach swimming and going on slides! It was great to be able to act like a "kid" even if it was just for a day or two. :)

I wish all of us just lived in the same city so we could always spend time together!
