seventeen singapore - again!

Benita and her lovely team of writers at Seventeen were lovely enough to have me in their issue for the second time in three months! The main story for Seventeen's July issue was "Be a Budget Babe," which was all about shopping smart during the annual GSS (Great Singapore Sale). For those of you who aren't local, GSS is basically when every single store has a massive sale, and everyone just shops and shops and shops! 

However, like I said in my little paragraph, it's important that the usual shopping rules still apply (even though price tags have been shredded into microscopic bits and you just want to buy everything in sight simply because you can). Buying a fully priced pair of shoes for $100 is going to make you happier than buying three damaged or ill-fitting shirts/accessories for $100. Exercise quality control, and be careful with impulsive buys; the choices you make when there are neon price tags and huge signs all around you, filling your head with the idea that everything within your reach is worth every dollar it costs... yeah, hate to be a party-pooper, but choices in those circumstances tend to be the ones you regret later.

Hope everyone's having a good summer!

seventeen singapore!

This month, I was lucky enough to model for Seventeen Magazine Singapore! It was an absolutely amazing experience; modelling for such an esteemed publication was a true honor. I appeared in a two-page spread called "Work Your Basics," an advertorial for Japanese clothing brand UNIQLO. If you're in Singapore, do pick up an issue - Seventeen Singapore is one of the best magazines out there. It was an exhausting 4-hour shoot, but I really did have a lot of fun hanging out with the fashion and beauty writers of Seventeen, and I hope to work with them again in the future!

On another note; SEVEN INCH STILETTOS NEEDS YOU.

 I'm looking for anyone who's interested in being part of my 10QQ segment. For those of you who've never read one of these posts, they're basically a series of photographs and 10 quick questions which together provide a bite-sized feature on someone stylish. The questions aren't just limited to fashion either - they're about anything and everything! I've done a couple of these short interview posts (click here to see them) in the past, but I'd like to take this one step further by taking advantage of all my super-stylish readers and giving you guys a chance to be featured on here!

Requirements:

There is no age or gender requirement, you don't have to be a fellow blogger, and you can be from anywhere in the world. All that's required is a strong sense of style, an interest in fashion and an open personality to answer the 10 random questions I give you!

To apply:

Email me (seveninchstilettos@gmail.com) with 5-6 high resolution pictures of yourself and your style (a variety of different outfits would be appreciated, please!), and tell me your name, where you're from, how old you are, and a little bit about yourself. Remember you don't have to be a blogger to be featured- if you're someone from my school, for instance, then please approach me! This offer doesn't really expire either - so there's no rush because it'll always be open!

If your application is successful, I'll get back to you within a week :)

For legal reasons, the photographer wasn't able to send me the high-resolution digital copies of my modelling, so these Photobooth snapshots of the magazine will have to suffice!
