Donna, 020214. Can't believe I'm only posting these now. My very first shoot for 2014, and probably the most meaningful one I've done in a looong while. I don't know why, but as I was taking these photos, in a way, it felt just as cathartic for me as it was for Donna. Cutting hair is a big deal, for girls especially, so I'm really happy that Donna let me document the whole thing.

I'm not sure if this is because I've been together with Aian for too long, or if it's because of the influence of my blogger friends Yapo and Gervin , but I've also been liking the (lack of) color black recently. I still like white a lot more, even though it's a pain to go out in all-white sometimes. (Stains, stains everywhere!) My current goal is to have a wardrobe that only has black and white.. and maybe some denim and muted pastels, for just the tiniest hint of color.

Last Saturday, I dragged Aian to see tricot perform at 19 East in Parañaque. Japanese bands almost never come to Philippine shores, so I was pretty excited about it. I've never been to any concerts before, and since the venue was pretty near, I thought this would be a great chance to experience a live. The thing was though, I'd only ever heard of the band's name before, but never really tried listening to their songs. The first time I actually searched for their songs was when The Japan Foundation put up the poster for their live on Facebook. I typed 'tricot' on Youtube, clicked on the first thing that came up , listened, got hooked, fell in love. The tricot live was.. kind of wild, haha. Not GazettE-live-level-wild (meaning, no flying bottles or people headbanging their brains out), but it was super lively! People were dancing and jumping and singing, it was so fun. Their sound was amaaazing live. Everyone was so in sync, I was floored. All the mem…

I seem to be on a roll with these beauty-related posts lately! Today I bring you another mini-review (I call them mini-reviews because mine aren't as detailed as most blogs, also not as objective), this time of this cute little palette I got from the CANMAKE Spring/Summer Product Launch, the Perfect Stylist Eyes Palette in 06 Gelato Mint .
