Hi Candy girls!

Allow me to introduce myself to the "blogging world"… I'm Margaux, the new fashion assistant of Candy, and this is my first time ever to blog here! Yup, I had to make kulit to almost all of the Candy staff and ask step-by-step directions on how to do it. Heehee… (Thanks guys!)

As my first entry, I'd like to share some funny behind-the-scenes stories from one of the August issue's fashion editorial. Have you all seen the "Bright and Shiny" rain wear pages? First of all… A rain shoot is supposed to be gloomy right? Well… It was the sunniest day of the year! Our photographer, Ocs faced quite a challenge in making the picture look as dark as possible. But it turned out OK — we were just wet with sweat from working under the burning sun instead of wet from working with actual rain. I cant decide which would have been better! Another funny secret… For the shoot, we had no water supply to create rain! The solution? 1.5 liter water bottles with punched holes on the cap, filled with water from the sink. Mia and I had fun squirting away right next to the models (see the first and last pictures). 

Here's a pic of the team during the shoot… That's Mia, Nicolette and Isa (models), Ogie (hair stylist), me (check out the water bottle I'm holding!), and Angie (makeup arist), while waiting for the rain which never came.

Well, rain or shine, we all had tons of fun and laughs during the shoot! 'Til the next one!

 Love,

Margaux
