Febibig Meetup 2014

I am catching up! So many backlogs. So lazy me... Somebody please save me from watching TV shows and Kdramas! lol I've been spending most of my summer at home because ugh, it's so freakin' hot outside, don't you think? But hey! I already have a plan to end my summer with a bang! Have you heard of the Tumblr Summer Ender Meetup @ Kaogma Festival 2014? It's going to happen this May 31st at the Provincial Capitol of Camarines Sur.

So yeah, I decided to do this backlog today. My recent Tumblr Meetup, the Febibig 2014! As I've blogged before, I announced that I'd have my very first blogger talk in this event! Ahh~! It was awesome. It felt like I'm a legit blogger. lol

I've had a talk about fashion blogging along with my lovely A-Fash sisters, Danica on Unbreakable Style and Didi of Frances and Flair. And in this photo, we're with Sam of The Clothes Freak also, A-Fash and one of the organizers of the event too! Danica talked about styling, Didi about Posing 101, and me about blogging!

(I forgot to remove my Tumblr name tag lol /Hello I'm Jamie, my Tumblr is jamielouborile! Haha/)

I wasn't able to take much photos of the event because my DSLR gave up on my on the same day. We'd spent lots of awesome years together. But maybe it's really time to say goodbye to her already. *sobs* (yes I gave my DSLR a gender lol) I was really planning to buy a new one anyway. Heh~ So yeah, I just asked my photographer friend, Jan Keifer, to take my outfit photos! Thanks Keif!

So here's what I wore. Something striking but not over the top, stylish but still comfy! In meet-ups like this, it would be nice to wear an always-ready-for-a-photograph outfit, but do not forget to make it as comfy as possible because you'd be expecting games that would require physical activities in this kind of events.

ACP

Fresh Mint x ACP

Late post! :p

Last February 27, Ateneo de Naga conducted one of my favorite events in the university, the ACP! or also known as Alternative Class Program where every Atenean are able to have a break in their regular classes and attend a their chosen topic instead. Sports, literature, film, photography, blogging, music, fashion, etc. Every student shall only attend one topic for the day, but as an always=a-rule-breaker-during-ACP I am, I attended two topics! (like I always do every sem! hihihi) *u*

(sorry for low quality photos! lighting is kinda sucky inside the classrooms!)

The first topic that I attended was I DREAM to set up a vogue of clothing style with Mr. Randz Manucom! This ACP's theme was Electric Dreams which focused on sparking up our dreams, which I think Randz Manucom did well. He talked mostly about his life and how he got to where he is now. He's kind of interesting. He's no model, stylist, photographer, nor a student of fashion or arts (as it says in his blog), yet he made it to the fashion industry! He currently works at Metro Magazine. Awesome. Well, his story's really kind of inspiring, and I really had fun hearing his talk. He's a little talkative, but still makes sense! ;)

We also had a little activity (which explains the 2nd photo), a dress up game! Fashion challenge! Style a model with just a piece of cloth and one necklace, and my group won the 2nd place, yay!

The second talk I attended was all about blogging (which I always do attend! hihi) with Ms. Daphne Benosa! She has been a friend for a while now, but this was just the first time we finally met. I adore her blog, both contents and photos! (Check out her blog post about her ACP experience here) She's a member of Bicol Fashion Bloggers too, but she's based in Manila. Her talk was fun and very informative. I got to learn more about her and.. about myself too! Her talk indeed inspired me to continue blogging and do even better! ;)

I was lucky enough to be photographed by Mr. Chad Versoza (on film!), who happens to be Ate Daphne's boyfriend. He was also there for the ACP to talk about photography. Well, what can I say, this couple is a really great match. A fashion blogger and a photographer!

Because it's one of my most favorite events in our university, I decided to wear something blogger-ish that requires me to stand out and stand tall! Hihi. I always wear something special during the ACP because I got to meet some awesome people in the event. Ateneo never fails to invite awesome speakers every sem! My favorites are David Guison, Vern Enciso, and Mango Red!
