Love Bonito Chinese New Year 2015 Lookbook

Time is really zooming. (I feel O.L.D) So I always try to live in the now so I do not get reminded of how time is cruelly adding lines on my face!

Anyways, on a brighter note, in no time it'll be the new year soon and now's the time again to shop ladies!
Those who are unmarried (hooray!), let's be excited about the money you are gonna get in those shiny red packets of yours.

Whereas for me? I have my Italy trip to look forward to AND even though I AM ABSENT I have to prepare those shiny red packets for the unmarried ones.... Grrr.

Hair and Makeup for Love Bonito: Golden Days @ Alkaff Mansion

The latest Love Bonito's Lookbook shoot at Alkaff Mansion.

Alkaff Mansion is huge and I imagined it to be my house while shooting. I wonder who bought the land and built this gorgeous 'mansion like' place just for people to dine in????!! I mean they even have giant rocking chairs placed around the premises!

Check out said giant rocking chair:

Having a cheap thrill of a time on this giant chair

SHIT! I think I look kinda granny-ish in this chair !!! No? WAHHHHHhhhhhh dreaded hormones

Ahhhhhhh the hobbies of the rich people........ Whereas peasants of our kind can only dream of owning it...... Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Perhaps one could apply the Law of Attraction here???

So this young lady with me is the stylist for this shoot and the most bimbotic, the noisiest girl ever.

I enjoy poking fun of her too ;)

Both of us think that I look younger than her. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Being peasants one may consider renting (instead of owning it) Alkaff Mansion for special occassions like weddings or important parties. The place is HUGE

Pretend to be a tai tai for a day with your biatchy friends and go try their high tea menu ;)

ABOUT ME

I work with a team of fellow artists sometimes, which allows us to better ourselves and also work as a group to deliver the best services to you all out there.

Previously graduated with a Diploma in Optometry, I realized that being an optometrist is not what I would be happy working in for the long term. So I decided to pursue the unknown in the artistic industry, which is what I've always been fascinated in since young.

I figured: You only live once, why waste it?

So, after graduating with a hair diploma course from Kimage, I realized styling is what I love most and decided to focus more on getting experience in this sector which unfortunately was not taught in-depth during my time in hair school.

I strongly think that hair should also really go with makeup for a lady to look ‘complete' and that beauty IS the whole package!!

So, I started to read up on lots of information on makeup and went hands-on on my own face and whoever I can get for practice!

Armed with self-taught makeup skills, a hair diploma, and MOST importantly a very determined and passionate heart, I took a huge leap of faith out into a new career path to get more involved in the industry.

I proudly say my forte is my versatility in my style for (with an added speciality on asian faces) and is often engaged for brides styling, fashion and commercial shoots/print ads, corporate functions and beauty workshops, personal makeovers and collaboration with fashion designers, photographers and videographers. (Pretty much anything you can think of)

Being able to do what I love and good at, often keeps me in an uplifted, jovial and cheeky demeanor, making people feel at ease around me very easily.

Currently striving to better my skills with experience and looking to expand my expertise in related hair and makeup projects.

I am proud to declare that I am Cozycot’s 100 most inspiring women for two consecutive years 2011/2012 and want to thank all the people who have supported me so far!

If you would like to read about bits of my life in fashion and beauty or some random nonsense, scroll on down.

"It is ok to be mad, a little madder, or as mad as u can be.

Your parents would still have loved u.

But afraid of hurting them, u would have paid the price of ur dream.

Some people build exaggerated high defences against the outside world; against new people, different experiences and leave their inner world stripped bare.

And that is why, we become embittered people, lacking the will to live or die.

The Embittered, find heroes and madmen fascinating. In the end, both would die. (Heroes offer their lives in the name of a cause whereas madmen would commit suicide.)

But Because they forge ahead regardless of what other people say.

It 's only, at this moment, the embittered person would have the energy to climb up his defensive walls and peer over at the world outside, but then his hands and feet would grow tired and he would return to daily life..........

Yes I wanna be mad and as mad as I can be."

Until we meet,
Gerra
