StyleXStyle Photoshoot

HEY YALL
As some of you might know (probably based on my Instagram) StyleXStyle contacted me to join them for a shoot last week!
I WAS SO THRILLED i was next to Ritche and i could swear i said "omg" at least a hundred times for 5 minutes non stop LOL
Basically this shoot was meant for the brand Bonia that was turning 40!
So we got to work with many pretty leather bags :') 

If you don't know what StyleXStyle is about, it's actually founded by Sharon Au from Mediacorp!
It's a platform especially for people who love fashion and taking outfit photos which is the reason why they created an app for it as well.
They also film videos for these collaborations, i'm sure many of you have seen it on TV or apparently at ION and bus stops as well!
I was so surprised when even my mom knows of it HAHA she is probably one of the most sua ku people i know of :P

The whole outfit theme for girls was white and for guys, black and we were informed of the theme just a few days before the shoot.
They really emphasized on the "FULL WHITE" part and i was really stressed about what to wear LOL
This outfit i brought together was almost the only white apparels i've got in my closet that looks presentable and thank goodness it matched rather well!
I was so worried about how i looked i asked so many people for their opinions hahaha
5 minutes before leaving the house i actually changed my mind on the blazer i put on wtf
I almost brought 2 blazers to the studios because i was so indecisive HAHA i really take things wayyyy too seriously

Took a cab to Mediacorp cause we were running late LOL #taxiselfie

Yup that's my full OOTD!
Instead of the laced blazer you saw in the previous photos we picked the white one haha

White Blazer from H&M
Gold Chain from F21
Earrings from Lovisa
Laced Bralet from www.StyleHacks.net
Crochet Highwaists from www.StyleHacks.net
Laced Flats from Taipei (wtf i miss that place so much?!)

Meeting Sharon Au for the first time hehe
She's pointing at me cause she remembers seeing my photos from the StyleXStyle application HAHAHA
I was so shocked i didn't know what to say!!!

Everyone involved in the photoshoot + my boyfriend sitting at the couch and listening to Sharon's story and how StyleXStyle started off!

At first Ritche was really reluctant to go inside the studios with me and insisted on waiting outside
But honestly at first it was really awkward for him until the moment Sharon shook his hand and went like
"you're melody's boyfriend?omg so supportive" and she went on to ask where are all their bfs cause they have failed in the role as a bf LOL
After that moment it was as though he was meant to be there with me in the studios anyway :')

Studio lights + 4 cameras facing him + more than 15 people observing him
HOW TO NOT FEEL NERVOUS LOL

I really thought i'll look awkward as they took the video of me talking and all cause the setting was indeed really awkward
However the director was talking to me and idk what was so funny but i just kept smiling HAHA so i guess it didn't turn out so bad afterall

I always thought since i was a kid that i looked really weird when i laughed or smiled too widely but after seeing so many candid photos and videos from the photoshoot of me doing so, i realized it was never as bad as i thought! Maybe sometimes i should just be less self conscious haha but well these things are really hard to change.

If i'm not wrong these photos are taken using the very popular casio selfie camera that every girl seems to want.
It's like the price of a DSLR 1k+ but it gets out of stock ALL THE TIME

It makes me look like i have perfect crease-less skin, very smooth and soft hair and makes me look so much fairer but i still do not like or want that camera HAHAHA
Ever since i started doing a lot of photography a few years back i've always been particular about the clarity of photos.
I don't care if i look more perfect when taking photos with this camera,
i just feel that all my photos would look the same if every single picture was "perfect" with the weird baby skin effect
Just imagine taking a photo with your bunch of friends and all of you just look like you have baby skin and soft hair wtf i think it's just quite weird

Aiya i think after i explain people still don't understand and would just find me weird la HAHAHA it's ok judge me all you wantz

wo de number 1 supporter ~~

Preparing for a group photo!

The last part of the photoshoot was on the trampoline!
We were all informed about it in advance so i was already prepared with my flats and shorts haha
Initially i thought it'll be very difficult to meet the effect they wanted to achieve,
but it somehow came naturally since the photographers and director were so very friendly!
I actually had a lot of fun doing the jump shots hehe. Ritche actually took a video however idk why it's not supported for this blog post.
But once i get the video from StyleXStyle i'll be sure to link it in my post :')

Parents came to pick Ritche and I up from mediacorp to go to Toa Payoh for TIM HO WAN!
It was my very first THW experience and i found it not too bad however many people hate it?
I believe different outlets might play a part too. Of course not everything was fantastic but their BBQ Pork bun was?! HAHA

Thank you for being there for me not just for the photoshoot but for everything else as well!!
I don't even have to ask if you're coming with me, you always do :P

Hope you guys enjoyed reading this post!
If you're wondering what i'm up to today, i've been suffering :( and i'll tell you why in the next post

till next time!!!
