Modeling for Bridal Shows

Modeling for Bridal Shows

As a new model, very often the first shows to model for are bridal shows, especially those organized by bridal houses. Very often, a model would be asked to parade with various types of gowns such as can-can, mermaid, A-line or even flowy chiffon gowns. Personally, I love wearing wedding gowns (whic

GIVEAWAY: Defy the Test of Time

GIVEAWAY: Defy the Test of Time

I'm so near to hitting the big 3-0 but often times, many people, especially strangers, still think that I'm in my early twenties. Of course I'm not complaining but I do wonder, how long will it last?

Younger Looking Skin!

Younger Looking Skin!

Twenty-three. That's the age when I started working, and when I started spending my first pay cheque on beauty products. Back then, all I needed was the basic 3-step skin care set that consisted of cleanser, toner and moisturizer. Fast forward a few years down the road and I'm now heading towards th

Diet for a Model

Diet for a Model

When I started joining modeling classes at Amber Chia Academy, I was under the impression that everyone of us would be asked to go on diets, to lose weight and to be stick-thin by the end of the course. And being the food-lover that I am, I was pretty worried about that. Luckily, although some of us
