we had to make it happen: BLOGGER MEET-UP!

i am really shy (or speechless) upon first introduction. i don't know what to do when i meet strangers. the meet-up was not really with strangers as we have all been communicating in the blogosphere but it's different meeting people in person. so on my way to loft where we were all to meet, i was thinking repeatedly in my foolish paranoia, "what are we going to talk about?" haha! i didn't have any reason to be paranoid because the night did go well (maybe sans the stupid discrimination of the bouncer or management at loft)... we had drinks, we had laughs and of course, lots of photos! just imagine everyone bringing their own cameras and asking the waiter to take the group photos with all of them...it was crazy!

the night was not just a meet-up of fashion bloggers but also of fashion enthusiasts and up and coming designer. the roll call (from the first photo): rand, kelvin, kristine roa of instyle cebu, yves of yves style,  angel of the great social nomad, iya, dane of trust me, it's paradise, eden of chic in the tropics, ed and nym wales. 

we still had a few who were not in attendance and i really hope they could join us next time!

of course, loft night is not complete without my sister and our friends. we also celebrated our friend, yami's birthday and we were both dressed in animal print too! here's how the rest of my night went:

leopard print dress - thrifted

black belt - part of my lil' sister's shorts that she's wearing here

curtain necklace - props

stacks of faux gold bangles - gifted

wooden ring - thrifted at carbon

black peep-toe booties - celine (a gift from harry!)
