Last Wednesday, I felt like being a girly girl. And what's more girly than wearing a skirt?

Time flies so fast! I can't believe sembreak is over.  Which only means my movie marathon days are over too. :( But on the contrary, I'm also happy to be back in the university! It's still nice to have those good old chit-chats with blockmates and laugh over the most random things in the planet. And to top if off, this might be my last semester in college before I'm thrown to the 'real' world. So yes, I must make this semester the craziest-happiest-funniest-semester yet!

Sweeping in Barbie Heels

WHEW! That was exhausting! 
This is the official line in my thought bubble for the past week. You see, I am currently on a project of reorganizing and redecorating my room. If you have cleaned your room at least once your entire life, you know how tiring it is to de-clutter! I tell you, it’s not just physical exhaustion! It can be mental exhaustion too! When you have to decide if you ought to keep this magenta heels over that burgundy heels, oh gosh it takes you forever to decide! 
So anyway, I wrote down “sweeping in Barbie heels” cause I wanna relate my sweeping diaries with my outfit for the day. Don’t worry I don’t sweep in these wedges! Hahaha.

Something's wrong with our camera so the pictures aren't that clear. It's time to bring dlsr to the camera doctor for a quick check-up. Hope everything's fine and nothing serious.

Dressing Up for Summer

Sunday, April 8, 2012

Just because the Holiday season is over, it doesn't mean we can no longer dress up and be our own little fashionista. You know what? Summer is actually one of the best seasons to dress up. Think bright happy colors mixed with the basics. 
I've compiled 3 looks that is perfect for summer events:
(1) Beach Getaway; (2) Shopping in the City; (3) Girls' Night Out
Beach GetawayBeach Getaway
Your summer bikini doesn't have to be in the latest style. A simple  (2) bandeau bikini top with nice artsy fartsy prints can do the trick! Pair it with a simple cover-up just like this one -- (1) a crochet salmon-colored cover-up -- that might have been part of someone's spring wardrobe. You see, it doesn't have to be everything brand-new.  Meanwhile, the (3) sun hat is obviously very basic but the belt detailing turns it all around and makes it interesting. As for the sunglasses, (4) aviator sunglasses -- in my opinion-- is probably your best bet. It usually matches any face shape but make sure to consider the size. You don't want to look like a bumblebee! 
Shopping at the City

Shopping in the City
As for shopping clothes, wear something comfy. Shopping shouldn't be your "tiis ganda" moment. Save it for the parties and formal events. In this look, I chose a very simple (1) cream-colored button-up blouse matched with (3) high-waisted shorts with tribal prints. I love the colors on those shorts! It's eye-catching in a good way. (Avoid wearing too much neon/bright colors when shopping -- other shoppers might find you a total eye pain) Better yet, wear accent pieces just like this (4) braided orange necklace. Lastly, wear (5) a light-weight bag when doing your shopping. Save some energy for some heavy paper bags weight lifting! HAHA
Cruise Wear
Girls' Night Out
After spending hours and hours improving your sport -- swimming, sunbathing and shopping. Yes, it's called Triathlon for the Modern Day Women. (Oh c'mon, you know how shops turn into battlegrounds when the mall announces "SALE". And suddenly, everyone starts to act like gladiators trying to attack the store racks AND defend their shopping baskets from other prying shoppers). You need to reward yourself after all the battle, right? Hell yeaaaa, and celebrate it with the girlfriends! For this look, I chose a (1) well-tailored pink blazer and (2) basic white blouse paired with a (3) glitter shimmer sequined skirt. Then, picked some (4) light-colored pumps with interesting gold details. Add an accent piece like this (5) black gemstone with diamond details statement ring. Viola! That's what you call  feminine and classy at the same time.  

Have fun dressing up this Summer! 

P.S. What's the greatest thing you love about Summer? Share!
