LA ♥S ME

| URBAN OUTFITTERS SHIRT | H&M SHORTS, SUNGLASSES | FOREVER 21 NECKLACES | TARGET PURSE | REFLECTION SHOES | YVES SAINT LAURENT SHEER CANDY LIP BALM | COOL WATER PERFUME |

This was one of my outfits I had during the later month of July when the heat was starting to get to me. It was very beach inspired, as you can see from the shirt's saying "L.A. loves me." I need to go there soon! Anyways, that necklace is my favorite this season! I have been looking to get a geometric statement necklace in black or silver (like this one from House of Harlow), but the ones I liked were super expensive. I was so happy to find them at my local Forever 21 store! They never fail me :) As for shoes, I can't wait 'till school year starts so I can wear those babies out! It's so rad with all the spikes (I've been getting into cone spikes lately) and studs on the side. I got those from my local Reflection shoe stores, but I know there are a lot of other versions online such as here and here. I broke them in already, so they are super comfy!

Until next post...

Stranger Attractor

| REFLECTION SHOES, SUNGLASSES | XXI FOREVER TANK DRESS, BANGLES, CUFF | H&M BELT, SKIRT |

While searching through my closet, I found my old Forever 21 tank bodycon dress that I got a long time ago. I tried it on and thought "not bad." So I decided to recreate a look with it, sort of girly and edgy. I think Reflection is becoming my all-time favorite store for shoes because they don't break my wallet but I can find designer inspired shoes that I like, but not to the point of actually buying them full-price (like JC Litas). The big belt in the middle, in my opinion, isn't the best option, but I didn't have any other black belt that could cinch my waist in. Oh, I'm also loving silver jewelries this summer.

The title is from a song I'm currently listening to by Animal Kingdom.

Fly Away

What I used:

-Base: Sally Hansen Double Duty Strengthening Base&Top Coat

-Orange polish: Wet n Wild Megalast in 212C Heatwave

-Sally Hansen Salon Effcts Real Nail Polish Strips in 330 Fly With Me

-Top Coat: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri

Resulted from boredom, I wanted to give my nails a makeover with some butterflies and bright colors! It was my first time trying out these nail strips by Sally Hansen. I gotta say, it was pretty hard for me to put them on, but the concept is great! No drying time and no air bubbles. But it is REALLY hard to take them off, trust me. I also really like Wet n Wild's Megalast nail polish line. It's the best nail polish for its price (about $3 I believe). I have it in two other colors. The top coat is amazing as well! It really does dry fast, which is a big pro for an impatient gal like me.

Garden Tea Party

| FOREVER 21 SHIRT, NECKLACE | H&M SKIRT, RING | CLAIRE'S HAT | REFLECTION SUNGLASSES | JEFFREY CAMPBELL LITA IN SUEDE TAUPE | URBAN DECAY NAKED PALETTE |

I was going through my closet the other day and rediscovered the flower skirt above. I remember I used to adore that skirt last summer, but after that season ended, it was abandoned in the corner of my closet. This is why I love "shopping" my closet. Things that you used to love and once forgotten are rediscovered.

Gosh, just staring at my JC Litas makes me filled with joy and happiness. It's such a charming pair of gorgeous heels. Can't wait for fall/winter to arrive so I can wear it out more often!

Until next post... xx

Summer List ♥

Crochet or lace shirt/dress. A MUST!

Sunny shades. I have this one in black. Inspired by Prada.

Mermaid nails ♥

Only I can wish...

DIY some pretty floral headband! Best hairstyle to go along with it- loosely braided to one side.

Desire this crochet one piece swimsuit... but too pricey. You can find one at Nastygal.com.

A statement color bag.

Sightseeing of the beach and the palm trees.

“And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.”
