Beyond The Hype

It’s always a pleasant surprise whenever I get emails from Lookbook.nu’s THE Yuri Lee. This time, she emailed me to ask if I would be willing to be interviewed for this month’s Beyond The Hype.

…Ummm okay, let me think about this.

HELLO!?!!? WHAT IS THERE TO THINK ABOUT?! It would be crazy for any Lookbooker to pass up an opportunity like this! I’ve always been a fan of the Beyond The Hype interviews. I think everyone who has been interviewed are great individuals who possess unique personal styles. I look up to a lot of them! To be included in that roster is just beyond amazing! I freaked out for quite a bit of course. Most of all, I was overwhelmed, honored and flattered. To Yuri and the rest of the Lookbook.nu team, thank you so much for allowing me to share more about myself through this interview. I never ever thought I’d be featured here. Thank you again. I enjoyed answering your questions! I love Lookbook.nu!

If you haven’t read the full interview yet, you may read it here. I had so much fun answering this! It’s definitely one of my favorite interviews so far. I was especially challenged by the zombie question haha! I hope you like it.

    you really deserved everything you had miss camille! aside from your good fashion sense, you remained humble by commenting back our two cents here in your site. for me, it means a lot to get along or even be replied back by our idols.

    KUDOS!

        Yes I will for sure! Just hoping it’ll be available here in Laguna on Sep 1st. Usually, it’s not :'( But anyways, patience is a virtue, though it kills! hahahaha!

        Of course, no sharing policy! :-) Will try to hide it from my ever addict boyfie, cos sometimes, nakikipag agawan pa sya! and btw, though, nakakabawas macho points daw, I caught him browsing your blog, too! hahaha!

    I’ve been waiting for you to be featured on this section on Lookbook.nu. Aside from all the hypes you get from the people, your style is simply amazing! I’m a HUGE fan of yours Miss Camille, so when I logged in on my account, my jaw dropped and I was so happy to see you on the upper toolbar! You deserve every bit of the blessings you have for this year! Remember when you said (in your New Year’s post, if I’m not mistaken) you’re going to push it to a higher level? Well, you’re making it happen ;)

    On the other note, I can’t wait to grab the Sept. issue of Chalk and Preview Magazine! I must say, having you, Miss Tricia and Miss Laureen on Preview Mag’s Sept. cover girls will be my very first purchase of the magazine! Hahah! More cover issues and features, Miss Camille! <33

    OHMYGOD!!! Congratulations! Hahahahaha
    I couldn’t really help but think you are way too perfect!!
    You already! :D
    Your answer to every question is complete with humor and intelligence. And not only does this character of yours shows in the way you answered the questions but also in the way you write your blogs and with the way you dress up. It’s obvious that you are not just a pretty face. You’re probably a walking perfection.

    You already!

    P.S. : And I love it when you said you are a FIlipino as much as you are Chinese. XOXOXOX

    The first time I saw this interview, I’m not really surprised. I mean, you deserve it!!! and I never knew that you’re a pure Chinese, and it makes me glad to think that there’s a Filipino spirit in your heart. More power Camille. I also want to confess that I have a little crush on you. Hahaha. ;)

    Did you ever consider transitioning from being a designer to a stylist? Not just as an occasional stylist ha…as in full time talaga to the point of giving Liz Uy and Pam Quiñones a tough competition. Parang Rachel Zoe lang ang peg pero vice versa kayo kasi siya started as a stylist to becoming a designer. :)

    Reply
    • itscamilleco

      Not really full time. Designing is really my first love and I don’t think I can handle too much styling. Pahinga naman tayo paminsan minsan haha! :) Styling is a very demanding career. :)
