Arm Candy

Guess where I took these?

These were taken on the day I went crazy over Mall of Asia’s wide selection of brands! I don’t know how I was able to pose my heart away in front of one of our country’s busiest malls. I love how each photo has random strangers walking behind me haha! But oh well, desperate times call for desperate measures. My driver, my assistant and my mom know best that I hate taking photos with so many people around (unless it’s for an official shoot for a magazine or ad, I’d get all conscious and shy). We’d always circle the area a good 30 minutes or more until I find a spot where no one can see me. The few times that I do suck it up and just take photos in front of many people are when I really have no choice. So if you’re like me and you find yourself in a situation like this, the trick here is to turn your back against the direction where most of the people are coming from. At least this way, you don’t see their judging eyes. Mind over matter!

So anyway, here’s what I wore. Both my top and skirt are from Mango. I got them both on sale, woot! Cheapskate right here! Haha! :) Don’t you just love it when you get items you’ve been lusting over for weeks at discounted prices? I’ve been eying this top and skirt (in all colors) ever since they first came out. I love the sportswear and effortless vibe they give off.

To keep things interesting, I played with a lot of contrasts. Black and white + neons! Who knew Primadonna sold accessories too, aside from their awesome shoes!? These neon spike bracelets from Primadonna are to die for!!! Now these are what I call arm candies!

    I saw this skirt at Mango and thought of buying it kaso I don’t think this will look good on me-so, never mind. :p And what funny is, I thought of you and talk with my mind “bagay toh kay camille co”. Then here you are wearing that skirt. *goosebumps* haha

    Finally, I found this photo! I saw you that time when you were having your little photoshoot at MOA! After I saw you, I got star strucked and headed straight inside the mall instead of heading to the transport terminal! MIND BLOWN! You’re so beautiful! :D <3

    Hi Camille! Well, it’s me again! (I’m 99.99% sure that you don’t remember me, but, it’s ok considering all the people who comment and ask you things on your blog and since the last time I asked you a question was during the summer. Haha.). I was just wondering what kind of Nikon SLR camera you use and if you still edit them before posting them on your blog? The quality of the photos are really good! I myself use a Nikon D3100. And, if you use manual or automatic when you take your outfit shots?

      Hi Loren! :) If you leave comments more, I’m sure I’ll remember you! :) I use a Nikon D7000. I sometimes use D3100 also when I travel. I set it on manual mode and edit using curves and levels on Photoshop

    I totally get your opinion about taking photos around many people.
    Haha! I’m also like that too ’cause you’ll feel so conscious and awkward at the same time.

    Black and white with orange accents! Oh gawd, my favourite colour combination. It looks so relaxed and sporty chic. And those shoes are awesomely cute! The neon-ish lipstick just completes the ensemble.

    Speaking of arm candy, it still boggles me that you don’t have the “other” arm candy. XD

    Someone as gorgeous as you shouldn’t get shy at all! If I were you, I’d stand on those tables where people are dining/having their caffeine dosage and strike a pose right in front of them. charova! haha! That’s like I’m proclaiming to the world how beautiful I am or more like a “wow mali” moment.

    Love how you added neons to this black & white ensemble! Makes them really stand out <3 And I also hate it when lots of people are around when I'm taking outfit photos. They give me weird stares which makes it really uncomfortable haha. But a blogger's got to do what blogger's got to do!
