When one dreams, anything is possible. Reality bites whenever I realize that I was not able to fulfill one of my dreams, my frustration of being a ramp model.

However, I didn't let myself stop from that. I read articles about fashion and beauty. I always make sure that I read to equip myself with the right knowledge. I try to apply things that I read. It's funny that I even learned how to apply basic makeup from Youtube tutorials. Tips about fashion? I read it too.

And given this height, who would have thought that I could still do something about this frustration? What I love most is the chance to model for some of my friends' online shops. Yes! I feel like a model whenever I do that. I join go sees whenever I can. The recent one I joined was for Cotton On when they were about to open here in the Philippines. My cute face ( as Laureen Uy commented) wasn't enough though. I also joined Belle de Jour's fashion show before for the petite section.

When I was in college, one of the most memorable frustrations-turned-aspirations moments was for the test shots I had for the batch graduation photos. I was fortunate to be one of the models of our batch. Here I share with you some of the results of it. 

I still remember one of the owners of these photo studios saying that I can't be a ramp model but I can be a commercial model. That looked like a compliment for me!

So if there's anyone out there who have the same experience as mine, don't let yourself feel bad. There's still a lot you can do to flaunt that beauty!

When I first worked for a Chinese-owned mobile phone company in Manila, I was pretty much amazed by how they use Chinese astrology to predict a lot of work-related stuff.

They hire people based on their birthdays. It tells something about the characteristic of the prospective employee and its compatibility with the employed ones.Well, I was lucky enough to get in. They also use this certain calendar with all the good and bad days written in it. We would check the calendar and plot dates based on the goodness of the day. We would even not hold an event if it falls on a bad day. Weird, eh?

The most influential thing, I guess, is the use of Bazi chart to predict some part of my life. I also knew that people born under the sign of Horse and Rabbit are my best friends. My former boss would even advise me to well horse and rabbit trinkets to be lucky. As a Ying Metal, she would also advise me to wear anything in white, silver and metallic colors.

From then on, I always take into consideration the color combination I'm wearing. I also got used to checking stuff with horse or rabbit prints in it.

As I browse through Polyvore, here are the cutest and luckiest trinkets I wish I could have.

Being an Aries quaintrelle means being born in months of summer/spring. That's something to love about because you can go out and enjoy the sun, soak in the beach and get tanned. It's also a great time to wear trendy yet comfy clothes in a broad daylight.

I haven't had a chance to take photos of myself recently so it's my honor to share with you some of the ensembles I made in Polyvore that are summer-worthy. Expect a lot of prints and colors here!

I would definitely wear this outfit in the beach, strolling around during daytime.

What's your go-to summer outfit? I'd definitely want to see it.
