I've always wanted to have my own fashion blog but I never really got a
chance to start one. I've been busy with school, a three year old kid
and a boyfriend that I haven't been able to do the things I wanted to
do. But today changed all that.
My name is Beat, and I am a
frustrated fashion designer and model. I've been modeling for a year
now. I'm not signed up on any modeling agency, but i do intend to.
Soon. I've also been designing my own clothes, a few of them actually
came to life while some, remained at the back pages of my Business
Statistics notebook. I'm twenty years old, just a year older than a
teenager. So really, I'm very young though most teenagers won't agree
with me. I'm a Knoller, for two years now. I got booted off UST's
(University of Sto. Tomas, mind you) College of Accountancy two years
ago. It didn't really matter much to me, though I kind of miss my
friends there. Miriam is a great school, minus the boys. And at least
now, I'm taking up the course I really want. Which is Marketing. I'm a
Business Administration student major in marketing. Marketing looks
like an ordinary major, and when I graduate it will look like I'm going
to work an ordinary job. But I know, I won't. I can choose whatever
career path i want. Marketing is that broad. Yeah, really.
So
enough about that. Let's go to our favorite topic, BOYS! oh, wrong
blog. I mean, FASHION! I've been inlove with fashion ever since I could
start talking. I love dressing up and I love shopping. I remember
spending longer hours at the Rustan's department store with my mother
than at toy stores. I liked playing Barbies and dressing them up. I
also have fond memories on designing clothes on my barbie dolls. But
back then i drew stick people.
I like shopping. I think every girl
in the world loves shopping. I mean, who doesn't? It's such a good
feeling inside everytime you smell the crisp paper bills in your wallet
when you hand it over to the cashier, and she hands you your new found
joy. Sweet, isn't it? I for one love designer items. I love Chanel, and
I dream of owning a chanel chain bag. My father has yet to fulfill that
dream for me. I love Louis Vuitton, sweet sweet Louis Vuitton. I get
this kind of high, and my blood rushes and i get lightheaded whenever I
walk into Louis Vuitton. Especially when I smell the leather and
actually purchase a bag. Such a delightful experience. I'm also a big
fan of Hermes. Though it's not really within my budget. Maybe when i
grow older. For designers my personal favorites are Ivarluski Aseron
and Puey Quiones. oh, and Marc Jacobs of course. for brands however, I
have no particular favorite. I shop anywhere and everywhere. From Zara,
Topshop, Landmark, Divisoria, ukay ukay and online. Bazaars are my must
go tos since they have rare finds like accessories, shoes, bags and
cool tops. It's enough reason for me to go village hopping around
October and November when the bazaars are all over the place. You
should try them too.
I can never describe my personal style. I
just think it's ever changing. I mean I guess it goes for everyone
else. I've had a lot of phases. Some I liked, while some I don't want
to remember anymore. One good example is the Elephant Jeans phase. I
bought like the largest pair of flairs at Havoc, which is no longer
existent. I would beg my dad to buy me pair despite his distaste in
them. He called them Walis pants since it was like I sweeping the floor
with them. Now when I look back, I realized i did look ridiculous in
them. I also went through a Jeans-Tshirt-Havs phase which i liked. I
was pretty simple then since i was too lazy to dress up. Well, the real
reason was I couldn't shell out money for clothes like dresses coz all
my money went to the drinking sprees I had with my friends. But I
eventually learned my lesson.
So now you know so much about me
:) I guess all that information is enough. i will be back in a jiffy to
fill you in on my fashion knowledge. I plan on filling this blog with
new finds on stores that are rarely visited, my recent discoveries on
clothes, make up, restaurants even. ( i love eating, and looking for
new restos). I will also post the season's trend report which you can
refer to. Oh, and please remember, I'm very friendly. You can leave
comments on blog entries that you liked. And, you may also ask me stuff
on where to buy shiz, what to buy, stuff like that :) Don't be shy okay?
Thanks everyone. I hope you like my new baby ♥
