Celebrity Living Mag Oct - Rufa Mae Quinto


Before the Oct finally ends, I just want to share to you my FIRST Cover with Celebrity Living Magazine.  When PR, Ms. Lana asked if I can style Rufa Mae Quinto for Celebrity Living Magazine October Issue cover, I tried to control my excitement because I'm such a follower to her during her B movies.

Check our her loft and the super fun shoot ever I had with the magazine.


And the cover! This is actually a long gown by Anthony Ramirez and we just put a clip behind it so it would still look a little more of chic than dressy for a cover.  Special thanks to Ms. Denise of Primadonna Shoes! 

Photography: John Ocampo
Styling: Jear De Mc Cuttac
Styling Associate: Kai Macabata + Angela Sarmiento
Make Up: Omar Ermita + Hair: Mark Qua

Words: Michelle Carag
Art Direction: Joy Basa
Editors: Sophie Menor + Grace Romero

All accessories from Parfois! Check out her Christian Louboutin Shoes, amongst my fave shoes on her personal designer shoes collection :) 




Option for the opener or intro page.  We already know Rufa but for this shoot we wanted to pump up the chicness, since its given she's sexy and we don't want to stress that in here :) 
I just love her, though the shoot took a little bit of time, she still manages to butt in some jokes and some funny stuff.  The team adore her so much :) Thanks Promod for the printed top! 

Yes, eto yun! Every change of poses, the very candid Rufa always bring some smiles and Yes (Rufa) expression. 
And there you go! Her shoe collections from Chanel, Prada, MiuMiu to Christian Louboutin to Gucci to Versace... and she's wearing one of her fave studded heel MiuMiu :) Jacket from Miss Selfridge, and Yellow python print top from Louis Claparols of Myth.

After the shoot, we have some break, and I requested her to act as if she's kissing me and its seems I'm in doubt! I just love the entire acting scene we have here, LOLS!   THANKS ALOT RUFA! God bless and I know you are really a nice person! 

Thanks again to the CL TEAM - Mitch, Joy, Sophie, John, and Grace and Ms. Lana! 

Of course, pahabol pa ang OOTD look.  Thanks alot Cial!

Special thanks to my styling partners for the day - Angela Sarmiento, and Kai Macabata! Hope you enjoyed the styling guys! Until NEXT!

MB: Pale Fire

Christine Day Lorico, photographer-friend, messaged me if I can style for a advertorial of an alcoholic brand, syempre gora na ako! I love Tin's works for the Nth time, and who can't?  

For more samples of her works, check out her site:


During the pull, I already considering doing another editorial and wanted to surprise her since I know the model already Ciane from IM Agency which I have worked with her before. But since she's not the photographer in the advertorial shoot, different story to post soon, I told Tin to just bring her camera in case!

Until, the day on the shoot, we agreed if we can do the fashion editorial shoot after convincing Ciane and Priscila, booker from IM Agency, and here it is, after so long, lols! 


Our story for this is just basic blacks and gray tones for very sleek, casual-formal chic look.  Clean, nice cuts, little sexy editorial.
She looks like Demi here :) 
All accessories from Parfois

Don't you just love this? All from Folded and Hung

I styled with the ever reliable and efficient Kaye Awatin.

Check her works and blog here:

Here's the actual release in Manila Bulletin Fashion Section, Friday, 19 Oct, FULL SPREAD! Thanks alot MB, Ms Joyce and Caloy for the support.
