If you have been following me on Twitter, you know what I'm doing lately.
Since June, I have been working in Ana Consultancy on a part time basis. My frequently mentioned lady boss is Juliana Cheong who is also the key image consultant here.
Thanks to Rebecca who arranged the Frotera eat out, I met her with May who is also a trainer for Ana Consultancy. Both of them are amazing people. They are the first few inspiring people when I first got out of the vicious cycle which I was enduring for more than two years.
What a memory...
In May, Juliana approached me and offered me a chance to undergo an apprenticeship with her. I did not give too much thoughts to it and I said yes. That was simply because I have faith in her and apparently, it is still going well!
Juliana have been very supportive and she never said no to all the initiatives I've suggested to her. In fact, she taught me how to be more business minded $$. Which is good, of course! I have been not making money since the first internship...
Here is the first social media project we worked out last month with the sponsorship from TANGS. We got eight bloggers to undergo the makeover session. I really really had a lot of fun with them. I have to admit that I lost myself in between =P
Before the makeover, Ana had a private conversation with them to understand each blogger. How you dress yourself forms the impressions that you want others to have over you. Simply put, it is the FIRST IMPRESSION.
Ana talked about the general life goals, the obstacles in life, personal philosophy, emotional stepbacks in the personal consultation. It's like a counseling session already! She sure knows what she is talking about after years of spiritual enhancements. To her, this is crucial. If you do not know a person well enough, you're barely competent to help him/her. What's more than something people put on to face the public everyday?
Here are the great bloggers I met during the private personal consultation:-
1. Rebecca Saw (http://www.rebeccasaw.com/)
2. Nurul Iza (http://thepinkstilettos.blogspot.com/)
3. Vivien Sam (http://www.vvens.com/)
4. Jamie Liew (http://www.jamieliew.com/)
5. Huai Bin (http://www.sixthseal.com/)
6. Yatz (http://jenkinyat.com/)
7. Thomas Yap (http://yapthomas.com/)
8. Joshua Ong (http://joshuaongys.com/)
After the meet, the bloggers are to submit their 3 capsules using polyvore. Ana and I will then pre shop for them before the actual event in TANGS. Speaking of that, I am so glad that TANGS is able to sponsor the venue and loan us the clothes for the event. What more, they even sponsor us lunch! Island Bistro was quite cozy except that it can be very cold. I like to sit outside of it. It's nice to have a drink after a long walk in the mall with a great company and some fags. *sidetracked*
After meeting all of them, Ana and I, along with Sasha (the hyper videographer) went to TANGS to do the pre shopping and "field" research.

I guess I no longer post with normal expressions these days =P
The pre shopping was super tiring wei... 3 full set of apparels each bloggers then sum up to 24 sets per blogger! I'm glad that the concept store is not too huge...
On that day, everyone gathered by the entrance by 10am. I was already running up and down to gather their outfits while the bloggers were chilling in the VIP room.
Wearing super high heel while carrying all the clothes...
While I was carrying the clothes from each department, Ana gave them a briefing and their "before" pictures were taken.
All of them look like as though they just woke up. Lolz.
Next, they started trying on the clothes. *Pictures are not in order*
Ok, done with the proper pictures, time for the candid shots!
Actually, I had my little makeover too!
