Feature: Karl Leuterio

Meet our (overdue) feature! Sir Karl Leuterio. I (Carmelo) first stumbled on Karl through Lookbook.nu a long time ago now. We have since kept in contact. From Lookbook icon to promising designer for Paradigm Shift, Karl is definitely worth our 'HYPE' here in Frogazine! As per tradition, we threw out not so random questions to Karl to help us get to know him more... Inside info, straight from the source!

1. We’re aware that you’re one of Manila’s sought-after style guru but what separates you from the rest?



Maybe the fact that I work at a hospital. My day job as a nurse and having an alter ego that is fashion. haha.

2. What's your daily style staple?
 
Loose shirt, drapey jacket, skinny jeans and .. wedges!


3. Occupation(s) 

I'm a registered nurse and I practice at a nearby hospital. I design for our clothing label - PARADIGMSHIFT. I do make up and styling  sometimes and I blog blog blog! That's an occupation too!

4. We’re massive movie buffs at Frogazine and we’d like to know what film you would classify as your favourite or something that you could strongly relate to? Why?


Horror films. I'm a cowardly chicken but I'm as curious as a cat so I still watch them gory scary films. I love referencing to sci fi , neo futuristic and horror films. I'm always caught between playing the antagonist and protagonist. i wana play both. there's something peculiar with horror films. I love surprises.

5. Fun fact about you


 I can fool guys with my lady-like voice. haha

Too young to model?

Her name is Thylane Lena-Rose Blondeau and she's 10.

As part of the ever so rising issues within the fashion industry, one of the most talked about would be young models. At first it was a big deal when 14 year old models started ruling the catwalk but now a 10 year old is making noise in fashion campaigns and editorials. It's true that she does have the ferocious stare and that high fashion stance but the age becomes questionable.

Is this an act of exploitation in the fashion industry or is it merely an adoration towards a young individual that needs to be shared publicly? Either way, this little girl continues to have increasing fans all over the globe through blogs. Try googling her name and the results are endless.

The frogs (us) think that she's absolutely stunning and she is a force to be reckoned with despite the controversy that surrounds her fame.

There are recent talks that she could be the next big thing! It is highly probable and we have yet to see her at her peak.

Snaps & Candids

Note: This is not a fashion post, we basically just played paparazzi for the day and took photos of people (including ourselves) doing their own thing at Newtown. We didn't take many photos because it's difficult doing it discretely!



At first we thought this guy was sobbing. A recent break up perhaps? As we got closer we realised he's just quietly reading a book.





Stolen by Carmelo! Or was it really stolen??? Hmmm...



Les Trois Mousquetaires



Carmelo: "Do you think people would think that I live here?"

Me: " I don't think so hey...Haha!"



Graveyards can be really interesting when you read what's carved on the tombstones. It makes you imagine who the person is 6 feet under the ground.

M O R E !



This is baby Luke ... he had long hair before you see! haha! She (yes, it's a she!) was doing ollies in front of us!



In Newtown... this is how they draw mermaids! Sooo grungy, woooohhhh - BLAHHHH!



I told him to "stop and pose, first" and he did!!! So cuteeee!

Yours truly,
