FLEUR

Something about pretty flowers-- peonies, roses, tulips and sunflowers have been circling my mind all day that this outfit reminds me of nothing more but flowers. I guess we don't always have to look at other people's style and magazines for fashion inspiration. It can merely come from a simple flower, winking at you whilst radiating its best bloom. 

LIGHTED PATTERNS

(Aztec Kimono and Bikini from Forever21/ Bershka Shorts)

I was always lazy to dress up whenever I would go to the pool or the beach and I always thought that a tank top and shorts would do it. I just recently discovered and realized the power of the kimono--so easy to wear yet so stylish. It's so much better than wearing a tank top which you have to take off completely and wear again every time you decide that you want to sunbathe or take another dip. With kimonos, you can easily just slip them on and off and even play around with it. 

On a completely different note, I thought this tribal pattern really matched the fiery torches and the pool lights which makes me want to think twice about whether my clothes and the places I will go to will somewhat match.

Maybe I'm totally just being a little weird or maybe I just need another dip in the pool to clear my mind and stop thinking about crazy things..

BOHO

 With the heat on full blast and with the sun on maximum brightness mode, I wanted to share with you all my take on dressing up for this weather without showing too much skin but not completely covered up and sweating either. 

After weeks of planning to collaborate,staring at blank air spaces and thinking of venues to shoot in Bacolod, Ashley and I finally got the chance to shoot for his portfolio and for my summer blog post, which you are now reading. We found this little spot that looks like an entrance to a jungle or a forest and thought that this would be an ideal place to match the bohemian outfit and make it pop.

We didn't take too long and went right away to shoot other outfits (up soon on my blog) so we could seize the day and hopefully bring you guys better pictures, thanks to Ashley. :)

PINK LEATHER

I Breezed through today wearing this pale pink leather skirt and mint green flats perhaps signaling that I'm craving for mint strawberry gelato since it feels like a hot pot here in the Philippines. Surprisingly, this combo didn't make me sweat like a pig, as the white blouse was breezy and the pink skirt was surprisingly blowing itself away a little. I was lucky enough to find this necklace from my mom that matched my skirt and this bag that could fit everything I needed.

Writing this post but all I can think about is how much I'd love to go to the beach and sip on a mojito.

Ya feel?

SUMMER LOVE

Its one of those days when you wake up and you decide to spend a little more time and effort making yourself look pretty and you just end up being in a good mood the whole day. That's what I love about summer. No time pressure, you get all the time in the world to choose your clothes, to put on make up, to sing in the shower and to eat breakfast.

I chose to wear this pink cami top that just came in the mail since I was too excited to wear it. This red pencil skirt I thought, would look so good with this light pink top and would give it a very girly and romantic feel. I also wore some vintage stuff that my mom gave to me, the chain bag which I adore since it feels so chanel, and the ring with stones. The other rings meanwhile are from River Island which I got for a very cheap price. Last but not the least the red cat-eye shades were given to me by my friend Joshua. Hey free sunnies, who could say no? 

I didn't have to spend a lot for this look, and I think you can create some classy looks of your own too without spending too much as long as you have the right style inspirations and some good stores that can give you your desired outfit for a cheap price. 

Hope all of you are having fun playing with your summer outfits! :)

CHILD

       When its hell week and you just gotta de-stress, sometimes, cute cupcake shops like Sophie's Mom just do it for you. There's nothing more comfortable than being surrounded with the cutest interior, and sweet cupcakes. I love Sophie's mom just because it's not too crowded and it has the yummy-est red velvet cupcakes.
Somehow I found myself wearing this silver and pink ensemble and I'm so glad that pastels are in this summer season so I wore these crystal-embedded flats and skirt from Zara and this beaded pink thrifted top and I've never felt so at home. I paired them with simple gold rings that I got online from River Island to complete my look.I guess when you're surrounded by all these pretty things, you feel a little better and life is a little easier..
