RETRO-CHIC

June 30 2013

It’s rare that I go for girly flirtatious outfits since I’m easily mistaken as a 12-year old but it’s fun to embrace it from time to time especially in the summer. But my idea of ladylike style is always juxtaposed by something androgynous like a boyfriend blazer or this metallic footwear. Last week I wanted [...]

WEEK ROUNDUP

June 28 2013

Having just come back a vacation three weeks ago, I’m excited as a kid to go off on a holiday again, but this time with my husband. We leave today so this week felt like a raise against time to finish what I needed to do before we leave. But it wasn’t all hectic; I got to [...]

Over the years, I’ve collected a decent amount of summer dresses [...]

WEEK ROUNDUP

June 21 2013

I haven’t done a week roundup since my blog redesign so I decided to bring it back. I started this feature to look back and remind myself of the little things that made me happy throughout the week captured through my iPhone. I mentioned here that I’m on a detox diet. I’m on my second week [...]

Everyone’s beauty routine should go through a transformation every season and It’s time rethink our beauty essentials this summer. I’m not suggesting to get rid of your current beauty stash but to incorporate some products, scents, colors, formulas that are appropriate for warmer months. Always looking at the practical side of things, I look for [...]
