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

Hair style for Photoshoot: Retro Mod

Recently did the hair for a model for a photoshoot and the theme was "Retro"

I don't know when exactly it started; I realized nowadays my dressing is more Mod (I think prints make fashion so much more interesting), but mainly my taste for furniture is changing towards this old style flavour (Especially DISTRESSED furniture English style)!!

And besides, 'Mod' IS the trend NOW!

So when I saw that the background of the photos had old type writers, furniture and cool poster boards, I was really tempted to go check out this supposedly abandoned place, and take some of those props home for my new home decors! :p (steal?) Hahahhhaha.

In the end, I didn't. I thought it would be creepy and the place would be hard to find, according to the photographer. Besides, I have been watching horror films and I wouldn't want abandoned old stuff to have strange energies coming out!! ARGHHHH??!!!

Like: CAN YOU imagine going home with the creeps everyday?!!!!!

Well here are the pictures! Makeup done by a fellow friend.

Jakarta

I have always loved travelling. And if I could travel and work it will give me the utmost satisfaction in my career. So, soon I am flying to Jakarta to look up an old school friend to check out if it's possible to set up store there for my work and photography studio with partners! YAY!

It happened super randomly!!!!!!

My indo friend texted me by SMS one day and I didn't reply cause it was an overseas number and I thought he was clearing his phone book. And yes, I was kinda cheapo as I didn't want to reply to a foreign number and get charged exorbitantly (as far as SMSes go) for it.

And so, weeks or months later, (cannot remember) I received A whatsapp text from him and I replied this time just because it's easier to chat on whatsapp especially from overseas!!! AHHHHHHHH
Anyway, he mentioned that he actually got my number from our mutual school friend cause he dreamt of me recently.
So, I was like WOW, how random can this get???????? Considering we haven't been in touch ever since we graduated 14 YEARS BACK?!!!!
I told him to save the details of the dream in case it was strange erotica and after he revealed it was indeed a weird dream. Hahahhaha.

So I chatted about what I was up to and then as much as I can't help it, the topic of overseas assignment came into the conversation......
He said if I was that keen, I should come over and check it out. Furthermore, he has a hotel doing one stop weddings too and if I were to come visit, he promised to take care of everything for me; accommodation and all, with me just having to buy the plane tickets!!!!!!!!!!!!

I DON'T CALL MYSELF MISS KAYPO for nothing.

I was excited, keen, curious and doubtful all at the same time..................

I was also super impressed and so the idea started churning from there then.

AND SO............. 

I am really keeping my fingers crossed on this one because I think it would be awesome to extend my hair and makeup plus photography services for bridal couples in JAKARTA!!!! We want to be able to bring awesome-ness over and of course to expend our clientele as it is really a huge market over there.

BUT
I have also heard there are couples from Jakarta flying over to Singapore to have their wedding photo-shoot done here in Singapore and so IDEALLY, they can possibly book me to do their hair and makeup!?

Besides, to get from Jakarta to Singapore is really near (only a 2hrs flight) and getting around
Singapore is also super easy because it is a small city after all.

Furthermore, the roads here are a breeze to get through compared to Jakarta! Plus, with the many awesome places of interest (the new structure at Marina Bay Sands, Sentosa and more.....for those adventurous couples, you can try the Zoo!) and beautiful backdrops (spectacularly decorated boutique hotels) to include in the pictures, AND great food of every kind and not to forget, lots of shopping!

Try out the often talked about infinity pool at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel!

So, it is indeed a great choice to come over to Singapore instead!  *Grins* COME! COME!

*WAves Hello and WELCOME!*


Ok back to reality, needless to say,  to holiday also, while I'm there, (again in a span of 1 week!) when I just got back from Bali!

I feel like a tai tai.
A very very hardworking one.

I tell MYSELF NO MORE holidays this year after this trip.

I need to focus on work!!

Wish me luck!

Love,
