for the love of jewelry

Hey everyone! Ive been meaning to blog but haven't had enough time lately due to workload at SOFA. 

I really  enjoy school though not only because of what I'm learning, but also the good company I get to be with everyday in class.

To keep things concise, all I really want to say in this entry is that when it finally hits you, what you want to do with your life, you have to give it all you've got.

Despite lack of sleep and lack of free time to hang out with friends (who i miss terribly), I'm really happy with how things are working out now.

In SOFA, were always encouraged to find our niche. I think i found mine:) In the near (hopeful!) future, I wish to be not only a clothing designer, but an accessory designer to be exact.

Ive been focusing my efforts on trying to be creative in terms of my store (Anarchy) and projects in school. Here are a few photos of my stuff -- i make jewelry and bags (all HANDMADE). The models here are the beautiful people in my everyday life! I really have to thank Sam Mendiola, Florian Trinidad, Dan Navarro and Patricia Prieto for the pictures and also for inspiring me to start writing!
enjoy!

much <3, Rocky

I started out with a few bracelets:)


Then ventured into necklaces

Fell in love with TASSELS

experimented with making a handbag and an armor for midterms (Philippine Fashion)

Eventually started playing with color

And now its anything goes!
