Edited Illustrated Wedding Map

Final draft of my Illustrated Wedding Map...

I edited it by myself! Tell me what you think! :)

Our Customized Illustrated Wedding Map

Since I am so obsessed with having my wedding DIY-ed... I asked the help of a very wonderful illustrator (Arnold Magtibay - Comment for his details!) to help me make a customized wedding map. Going to and from the place for reception and ceremony can be really ummm... Confusing and frustrating. Plus, I don't want to get two separate maps for my locations, and I seriously don't want to have the usual maps attached on wedding invitations. Hahahaha. Yes, I'm OC like that.

Very happy with the outcome of our constant exchange of emails. I love how he illustrated Hacienda Isabella, Chapel on the Hill, Taal vista and Tagaytay Haven hotel. I did pay him for his services, for being such a professional and for being so ever so patient with a bridezilla like me.

Thank you sir Arnold!

I really love my personalized illustrated map!

Sujean Rim

I think I mentioned Sujean in one of my past entries... Sujean Rim is an illustrator whom I admire very much. I love all her illustrations. They're so chic and so amusing. I seriously wish I could draw like her. I mean, it's really hard for me to manipulate my hand into creating a recognizable person. That's why I never took up fashion illustration, as much as I want to... It's just going to be disappointing. Anyway, she's from New York, and as you can see, she's an Asian. So in a way, even though she's not Filipino. I'm very proud with the fact that an Asian was able to score projects from Tiffany & Co. and Target... Way to go Sujean! I super miss seeing her illustrations at the DailyCandy... I think she writes books now. She has one children's book out... "Birdie's Big Girl Shoes" Ohhhh! I want two! So I can frame the other one! I just super looove Sujean!

Do drop by her site and check out her creations/illustrations... I'm pretty sure after you see her drawings, you'll become a fan too!

Style Icon: Garonce Dore

I've been a huge fan of Fashion Illustrations... Not just Garonce Dore's... But as well as Claire Owens, Sujean Rim, Izak Zenou, Jason Brooks, Ruben Toledo... The fact that they can draw people and look like humans amazes me. I could hardly draw a person with legs and arms (In good and even proportions...) Sometimes, they don't even look like people to me.

Anyway, this particular illustration by Garonce reminds me of ME. I wear my denim shorts that way all the time... Plus I like wearing my black blazer... And the hair all tied up in a bun... LOOOOOVE!

Garonce is one of my favorite Parisian fashionistas... I adore her love for photography and everything beautiful, her taste in clothes, her chic/fashionable style, her super curly dark brown hair... Everything about this woman is just adorable. Every time I visit her blog, I could feel myself smile and could not help but think about what would it be like if I was living in Paris too? It has always been a dream of mine to get there and see all the sights and people Garonce posts on her blog.
