As I wait till my father installs my best friend, Adobe Photoshop, I’ll have to settle with this photo I got from his friendster account and ETC’s website (Click on the image to visit the site).

I’ve been religiously watching Project Runway Philippines and immediately after hearing about the show’s promo, I opened the laptop and voted for my new favorite designer, Veejay Floresca. Not only do I get the chance to win great items from Project Runway Philippines, but I also get the chance (though it might be a thin one, I am hopeful) to meet and greet the cast of the show which in my opinion is by far, the must-see show these days.

So don’t vote for anyone else but the one who deserves it, who else…

You may be wondering why the sudden switch from Team Eli to Team Veejay, right? Well, after seeing the latest episode, I’ve finally concluded that Eli is no “Bad Girl gone Good” but truly a “Good Girl Gone Bad” taking the throne of our cinderella-ella-ella, Rihanna.

I really hated when Eli gave an unnecessary comment on Veejay’s fashion style, considering the industry he is in. In fashion, you may be in or out, but when you think about it, what’s “out” anyways. The thing that I love about the fashion industry, besides the high-end couture or the ready-to-wear apparels and accessories, is the freedom to flaunt your own style with each person’s individuality. The thing that makes each person unique. Which apparently Eli doesn’t seem to get a clear picture of.

If he keeps up this personality, there’s no doubt he’d be the next person we’d love to hate.

With that being said, from this day forward, this site is now officialy in full support of Veejay Floresca!

I miss blogging so much after being busy with my duties for the past few days. Everything seems to be a blur as I can’t seem to see the days pass by because of all the things I’ve been doing.

Anyways, I’ve been sick every evening as well but that doesn’t mean I can’t catch up on the shows I got my eye on.

Project Runway Philippines is definitely living up to it’s viewers’ standards unlike the flop that is known as Philippine’s Next Top Model. The challenges are coming out great so far and the designs I’ve been seeing are up to par. I never thought Filipino talent could be this innovative, but I guess they all proved me wrong.

During commercial breaks, I decided to give Sofa a visit on their website and see what they have to offer as a fashion school.

School of Fashion and the Arts

I was very much impressed with what they have to offer and the fees are very affordable for world class education on fashion, make up, photography, and so much more. Not only are they advocates on the technical aspect of fashion, but the business side as well.

They even have this ongoing competition for young rookie designers like moi who have the skills to be in the industry, with the grand prize of a free education at their school for an entire term.

I applaud the minds of these brilliant people for coming up with such cool affordable concept. Now I could say that there’s hope for all the talented young designers in the Philippines to learn the tricks of the trade.

*Last night, I was at the edge of my seat as my fave and husband-to-be, Eli Gonzales, didn’t quite make a masterpiece. But I still love him. Eli, you have my prayers.

Also, Have I mentioned I am also the husband-to-be of my inspiration for doing great make-up, Jigs Mayuga?

How’s that for a portfolio?

Gulp! both of them are definitely a tall drink of water.
