A couple of years ago, you would’ve never seen me brush my hair up like this–at least, not voluntarily. My bangs were my safety net. I couldn’t go out without them! It’s as if I’m able to hide part of my insecurities under my bangs. LOL! I’m sure most of you can relate. Us girls, we tend to hide behind our hair. But as one grows older, one slowly learns to let these insecurities go. You become at ease in your own skin–not because you feel more beautiful (well, not in my case at least), but because you become more accepting of your flaws. I think this is the reason why I’ve become more and more open to different ways of styling myself, in terms of hair, makeup and fashion. All this time I thought staying in my comfort zone allows me to portray the best version of myself because I’m able to put a cloak over my insecurities but really, it’s the only thing that’s stopping me from discovering all the other amazing possibilities in front of me. It’s a nice realization to have, which as you may have noticed, can not only be applied to beauty and fashion, but to other aspects of your life as well. Be accepting. Be open. Be free.

Awww thanks Clariss!
sad po yung story but there is a part na comedy naman. and I think I cried in the middle part of the movie up to the last kasi I thought na kaya kong hindi umiyak all throughout the movie, hindi po pala. The next morning I found out that my eyes are swollen. :) haha! :)
Haha! I shall look for it! :)
I really noticed your abs! Lol LOVE THE DRESS!!! SO pretteeeh omg o.o :oooooo
Haha! You did? Thanks Kaye!
Nice abs. You look hot and strong with that make up. Or was it the somehow tanned skin. Haha. Ms Camille, can I ask something? What would you wear for a creative shot with a stand out white theme? Haha. I don’t know what to wear! Jesus it will for our yearbook which means it will be there forever! Haha
I think it might be the tanned skin I got a few months back when I shot this :) How about something with interesting cuts? Basta focus on the draping, silhouette, cut-outs, etc :)
Hi camille,
I just want to ask, if il be wearing a dress that is backless or similar to one that you are wearing, what type of undergarment i should wear? Because im struggling with the stick on nippe thingy.. Can you help me? Thanks. =)
Check out my blog post today! It might give you some ideas :)
One thing that I also like about your blog ate Cams is whenever we are reading your posts we only not get fashion tips but to inspire also.Inspire and encourage the readers that even though we have are own different flaws there are still ways to hide it and flaunt what’s best on us. About your outfit on this post-I really loved it! BLUE is my fave color,this outfit looks like the blue skater skirt of yours(if you remembered). At school I really love to wear blue(share!share!)
Aww thanks Elden! :)
Cool girl in pretty nice blue dress and a shades on!
Thanks Judy! :)

Thanks Maebs! I’m scared baka it’s too sad? :) Is it?
Hi Camille! Your hair actually caught my attention and the color! May I ask the exact color of your hair?
Thanks Debbie! :) I think it’s blonde something LOL! Sorry I’m not much help. I just go to Park Jun Salon and let them color it. :)

I love your outfit, the blue of your dress illuminates your face.
I love your blog I have been for 3 years and inspires your style
Thanks Nessy! :) I hope more inspiring years will come :)
Oh my Lord. I just found out you lost your luggage! PLEASE TELL ME NO DESIGNER STUFF IS IN THERE. AND PLEASE TELL ME THAT LUGGAGE AIN’T RIMOWA. :( Oh Gosh. Stress! They will pay for it naman diba? And to think they lost a luggage from business class!
P.S. I die for your recent IG OOTD posts! Your ootd with the Banana Republic logo at the backdrop and the other one where you wore your Saint Laurent sneakers! Those Saint Laurent kicks put the Adidas Stan Smiths to SHAAAAAME! SUPER CHIC! SOBRANG versatile talaga ng personal style mo!!!
Haha! I love how you sound as affected as me :) I found my luggage just today. It’s a Rimowa. I don’t know if anything’s lost yet. I’ll be checking it later. My Rimowa got a lot of scratches though :(
Thanks Tasha! :) And these sneaks are super sulit pa! Got them on sale! Woot!
Stunning with blue! And with Atras Bangs! Is your luggage found already?
Haha! Atras bangs? I love it! Ang witty! Just got it today :)
Are those abs I see?? Haha!! So sleek Ate Cams! The color blue looks good on you too! <3
LOL! To me, they look like ribs haha! :)
I also noticed that! You, Kryz and Laureen have the same shoes. Haha. But the hairstyle looks good in you. :)
Yes, Kryz finally caved in haha! :) Thanks Kim!
OMG! I feel so bad I wasn’t able to reply to your email invite regarding your Bday Celebration! I just read it now. :( sana next time makasama na ako! I’ve been dying to see you! I started reading your blog since day 1 and I am so happy to see you grow and and accomplish SO MUCH from pursuing this career. I know A LOT of young girls idolize you. You undoubtedly set a good example for them and even for us na mga nasa 20’s na. haha! You showed us na it is actually possible to be fashionable, beautiful, smart, and be a woman of substance all at the same time.
Thank you Tasha! I really wanted to meet the person behind these amusing comments! :) Hopefully next time :)
Inspiring post! :) Love this dress :)
Thanks Denise! :)
I see STI in your background. Haha Oh Fort :) SM Aura? Hahaa that’s the same view as from our office pantry, including the Market Market playground. Haha I wish I could see around here or spot you taking your outfit shots in High Street. Haha
Yes! SM Aura :)
I hope you’ll have a picture with Laureen and Kryz wearing the same shoes. It’ll be like super awesome wearing uniform shoes with your besties haha I tried that with my college bestfriend before but unfortunately, we weren’t wearing Alexander Wang, Vans lang pero cute. Couple shoes ganun hahaha anyway, this post is right. You should embrace your insecurities and be confident because you are the one to let yourself out of that shell and stand out. Since insecurities are the things that makes us dont feel good about ourselves, we should just let it go, keep our heads high and love everything all about ourselves.
LOL! If that happens, we probably will take a photo of it! Thanks Katrin! :)
I can feel you Ms. Camille :)
I was like born with bangs but recently , I discovered that I can be good without it (or feelingko lang yun. LOL) .
I’ve been stressed the entire time with maintaining those fringes from our tropical weather (imagine the oiliness. Hassle magpowder or retouch).
Tho I still sport the bangs in a longer manner so I can manage to tuck them.
I’ve been your fan in Lookbook since the big bang but I’ll be honest that I just recently got hooked on your blog. Kudos!! ;)
Yay! Glad you started checking my blog out! :) I feel your pain, although for some weird reason, my bangs were so low maintenance. :)
Your hair looks great! You look so flawless :)

Thanks Joanne! :) I love the back the most too!
Indeed Cams. I agree with you with the hair thing. I cannot go out with my hair up on a pony, braided or a bun. LOL. I prefer it down. I might as well try to experiment and who knows really? Thanks Cams! Love this shade of blue on you! Those Alexander Wangs! All of you guys have them (Laureen and Kryz). Bestie shoes?

Yes! Kryz finally gave in haha! :) I was telling her they’re super comfortable! :) Try to experiment with hair styles! You can always put it back down anyway if you don’t like it :)
