Last month, I got invited by MAC Cosmetics to fly to Cebu for their Archie’s Girls collection launch there. I wasn’t able to attend the launch of the collection here in Manila so I was really looking forward to this one. Here’s what I wore to the launch.
It’s just a simple blouse and skater skirt combo. The launch was held at Ayala Mall so I didn’t really want to go all out. Since I’ve always been on Team Betty Cooper, I made it a point to dress all sweet and girly.
Instead of wearing something pink or light blue like how Betty usually does it, I went for cream and gold. Cream and gold always look great together. I think it’s because cream is a neutral color so it’s able to subdue the flashiness of anything gold.

And now, presenting the main event–MAC’s Archie’s Girls! Meet our version of Betty Cooper, Archie Andrews and Veronica Lodge. Don’t they bring back so many memories from your childhood?
MAC had the activity center of Ayala Mall set up according to theme. There were hearts everywhere!
Hearts with Betty, Archie and Veronica’s faces even!
The music playing on the background was all about Archie as well–obviously The Archies’ Sugar Sugar song was on repeat the most!
There were overflowing drinks and food the entire time. All of which were inspired by Pop Tate’s shop! These ice cream sodas were the so delicious!
MAC flew in dancers to entertain visitors too! They didn’t only dance with each other, they invited guests to dance with them as well! Of course, instead of paying attention to their dance numbers, I just kept thinking how much I wanted to take the female dancers’ costumes home!!! THEIR OUTFITS ARE SO CUTE!
Trial stations were set-up for guests to try the products themselves.
You see those red pebbles? They’re actually candy!
Here’s the complete collection! I went gaga over them!!! Can you see the eye shadow palettes? They’re so me! Shades of purple and blue are the best for Asian eyes like mine. I didn’t get them though.I had to prioritize. LOL! I got the Pearlguide Intense Liners in Petrol Blue, Designer Purple and Lord It Up (brown) instead. They’re really creamy and glides on so easily!
My kind of lippies–PINK, PINK, PINK! My favorite shade from the entire collection is Betty Bright.
Here’s Ronnie’s lippies. I find the Ronnie Red lippie the most attractive out of the 3.
Time to sit on this chair and try the products out for ourselves.
Celebrity makeup artist Jigs Mayuga and celebrity Bianca Gonzales were one of the first to try the products out. They love Betty Bright!
Meet everyone’s favorite MAC girl, Kirsten Brito. Thank you for flying us in Kirsten! I had a great time in Cebu because of you!
There you have it! I hope you’ve already gotten yourself something from the Archie’s Girls collection. My personal favorites are Cream Soda, Betty Bright and Flatter Me. What are yours? Sound off below!
To end this post, let me leave you with a photo of Archie and I. Move over Betty and Veronica!
Hi Miss Camille! I just want to ask something :) how do you accesories? and what should be in a girls wardrobe that girls shound have? like specifically and kind. Examples colored jeans and etc… thanks :))
Oh of course, the perfect pair of jeans. I prefer them to be a little washed out, color-wise. The perfect white shirt. Little black dress. Stiletto pumps. :) For accessories, there’s a lot! Start by investing in gold and silver pieces first :)
Hi Camille,
Nice to see you in skater skirt! But im having a hard time using mine, y’know it is prone to peek-a-boo when wind chases you. waah. ANy tips please? (or am i asking a no-brainer question here hahaha)
La lang! So pretty you camille, hope to see you in person!!! :D
Haha hold on to it? LOL or wear a pair of cycling shorts inside if you’re really worried. :)
Ms. Cams, ganda ng lipstick niyo dito. Can i ask what brand and the name po. I’m assuming MAC yan. What name po?
MAC yata! :) Hindi ko na maalala sa tagal :)
hi camille! i just want to know what’s the color of ur hair? =) so pretty!!!!!
It’s supposed to be red but it faded :)
I saw you there! I was so happy I got a photo with you. You were super nice. <3
Thanks Trisha!
Cute outfit, Camille! I super love the top! <3 and yay, I'm also team Betty ever since. Glad to know we're on the same side! HAHA :)

Hindi naman, nagkataon lang :)
Hey Camille!! Archie and friends definitely brought me great childhood memories :) living their MAC collection already! Anyways, I am actually going to attend my friend’sf 21st bday party and her theme for ladies was dress n red lips. I was wondering whether you can give any dress tips to match with the red lips? It would be a great help! Thx :)
Hmmm so many nice ones! I personally love blue or white with red lippies. Jewel tones and black are nice too!
I love this outfit, its so girly and sweet! And the print of the skirt <3

Thanks Reena!
It was such a treat to meet you in person that day Camille! You have always been a blogger/style inspiration to me and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw you walk in to the event.
Awww you’re so sweet!
You look so bright with this look, Ms Camille! Maybe because of the sun! haha.. I love your heels!
Haha yes! The sun was really high that day! :)
I love Archie! Kinda sad that the comics got a little more expensive than they used to :( But I’ve always been curious about who he ends up with! I know they have this special comics just for that, but it’s rare to fine a copy. I have a strong feeling it’s Betty though. And I’m lusting over the light pink lipstick in Betty’s collection already, haha! :D
Ooooh I have that! I’m such an Archie addict! :)
OHHHHH I love Archie! Still haven’t figure out if Archie end up with Betty or Veronica XD Btw, your skirt’s really really pretty! The texture looks sooooo soft as if it’s snake skin =)))
Betty FTW! :) Thanks Trisha!

“Only rich white people can fashion blog” What’s your take on this?
I think the existing fashion blogs all over the world are testaments that blogging isn’t for “rich white people” only. That is such a close-minded and ignorant assumption. Sorry, I’m strongly against people who think this way.
Oh! I’m so sad; I missed another opportunity of seeing you in person Miss Camille! :(
I totally love the combination of cream and gold. I’ll take note of that ;)
Love,
Ericka of http://behappyblue.blogspot.com
Awww next time! Thanks Ericka!
Ahhhh you were right, this brings back childhood memories! I love Archie comics and my favorite was Jughead! And you look really pretty in your outfit, Camille <3
Thanks Camille! :) Jughead and his burgers! :)
Did you just say “Thanks Camille”?? lol Does this mean I should reply “You’re welcome, Kathleen”? lol
Oh my gosh! Sorry! Haha! I was so tired!!! Sorry Kathleen!
Actually I was just testing if you really read my replies. LOL! Just kidding!

Thanks Carol!
I really love the way you dress up. I also love your skater skirt it’s very pleasing to the eyes. I really love skirts but I’m always having a hard time in dressing up with skirts because I have fat legs :(
Who said that? Maybe you just have to choose the right cut :)
Oooh. I so feel the same. That’s why I tend to not dress-up at times. Boo. hahaha!
You can dress up naman in different ways :) Don’t get discouraged! :)
I totally agree! Cream ang gold combination gives a very refreshing and natural look. You look great! Super sweet like Betty! <33 Love this post. xx
Thanks Katrin! :)
