Paez Summertime

Loove loovee!

Paez Shoes was started by 3 friends who wanted out of the corporate world. They started selling Paez to their friends and relatives on October 2006 and by November 2006, they quit their jobs after realizing the brand's great potential. They had their brand launch October 2007, and by then, they were already exporting to countries such as South Africa, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Netherlands, etc.

Paez Philippines is the only distributor in Asia. Paez shoes is made of a leather insole that provides comfort to the feet and is so comfortable to wear, especially when taking long walks or travelling. It is also made of EVA rubber sole, which cushions the feet with every step.

Had a chance to do the makeup for Paez for their Summer 2010 Launch at Fiamma. I saw Vania wearing the Salmon Pink espadrilles when we had a shoot for Vanilla Label and I thought it looked uber cute and comfy! While preparing for the fashion show, I kept looking at the shoes and couldnt decide which one I wanted haha.

You may view some of the other designs at their website PAEZ PHILIPPINES or follow them on facebook to get the latest updates PAEZ FACEBOOK.

Brought Caby along to help me with the Makeup :)

Tales from Africa

I don't know where to begin when i think about the roller coaster ride my life has been the last few days haha. But I'm grateful and super thankful for all the opportunities and learning experiences. Gah! Sometimes, I feel like im dreaming and when I get home after work I contemplate whether what had happened earlier in the day was just part of my dream haha.


But anyway, this is a short post just wanted to share a few photos from a shoot I did last weekend. Had a chance to work with Jamie too bad I didnt get to take a photo with her haha. She did the makeup for the other model for Top Picks Clothing's Tales from Africa Shoot.
