One of my early tasks for MOD magazine is to cover and write a very short article about the Shangri-La Plaza's 'Retail to Runway' fashion show. I asked my bf to accompany and be my photographer for that day. Fortunately, we are given front row seats . . but unfortunately, this article was not published in the December 2011 issue.
