Bohol Photodiary

Because I've posted photos of when I went to Buhi, Naga, Caramoan, Hong Kong, Macau and other places on this blog, I thought it's only natural that I should show you some shots that I've taken when I was in Bohol with the family! I won't say much. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves because nothing I say will do the place justice. :)

Print Clash

Spent a few days in Caramoan during the Holy Week before we headed to our hometown in Buhi, CamSur. Let me tell you about the beaches and islands in Caramoan. They were absolutely gorge. The sands were so fine and almost white. The sea was pristinely clean and didn't smell very salty/fishy. The numerous mini islands each had something different to offer and there were hardly any people and resorts built in these beaches so you can really enjoy the purity of the place. So for this beach trip, I wore clashing prints that surprisingly went well together. Since it was finally summer, I thought I'd go all out in prints and colors in celebration of the season! What do you think?

Summer Layers

I don't mean to frighten you guys but yeah...here are photos of me goofing off with my little sister who takes my outfit shots. Haha!

(white cotton dress-Mom's | floral tunic-Mom's | rings-Anagon and Eastwood | necklace-The Ramp | bag-Follow Your Heart | belt-Abbey's (oh noes your belt is still with me abbey!) sandals-Janylin | turban-Flatterbuy)

Been sporting the orange lippy for quite a while and I'm lovin' it! Perfect for summer and I got it for a really cheap price from my good friend Abbey! Would you believe that I got it for only 50php?! Haha!

Earrings gifted by my BFF Rachelle! I know you're reading this REJ! Thankies! :*

Just because it's summer doesn't mean I can't layer up, right? I mean, it's easy to layer clothing when you're just wearing a light cotton tank-dress and breezy floral tunic! Then put your hair up in a high bun and keep those bangs away your forehead by wearing a turban and you're good to go! The key is wearing breathable and light fabrics this summer if you still want to layer up. Haaay it truly is a challenge to dress up under this intense Manila heat! I'll keep this post short since I couldn't think of anything more to say. Oh and before I go, thank you soooo much for congratulating me on my previous post! I really appreciate all the support and the comments you guys! Thank you!
And here's Mama wearing the exact same tunic and tank-dress that I'm wearing here (she just styled it differently though). She wore this when she went to Bora 2 weeks ago. Hee. Thought I'd share this photo since the clothes I'm wearing on this post are practically hers plus it's Mother's Day! Haha! Her sunflower slippers crack me up sooo much! Haha!

Summer Dressin' + Meg Feature!

My new 35mm film waterproof lomo camera that I won over from Lee's giveaway! Thank you Lee I super loooove it and also the red lips necklace and earrings! You know I love red lippies! :)
Overexposed shots! What the hell, let's all just imagine that I am bathed in the sun's orange-y glow! Haha!

Now this one's just right. See how you can tell that my lipstick color is light orange and not really nude? Yep. All because of the lighting. Tyra Banks was right when she told her ANTM girls to "FIND THE LIGHT". Haha!

Summer is indeed in its full swing here in Manila, so much so that I can really feel the heat and the sun's rays prickling my skin whenever I go out which makes me more determined to stay in and do nothing that will make me work up a sweat! This week I managed to chug down 5 bottles of Coke (the big ones) and yes, I am perfectly aware that it's bad for my health but what can I do? The girl's thirsty. I hope I still have the drive to dress-up under this intense heat though. Okay okay enough with the complainin' (see I'm no beach babe and summer lover, I worship THE RAIN and THE COLD). I hate heat and the sun so much that I stayed at home all week long when the whole family went to Boracay last week (see, mi brotha just came home from Canada)! So where could a girl like me enjoy a nice swim? At a nice secluded falls or private pool maybe. But never when it's sunny. Night swimming, everyone?

On a slightly different note (imagine my voice getting an octave higher as I proceed to tell you to...), please grab a copy of the May 2011 issue of meg Magazine! En and I are featured on their Stylestalker section for this month! I am still so shaken from seeing myself on a magazine! I used to dream (well, I still do) of being the girl whose face was plastered on a glossy!!! SO FREAKIN' STOKED MAAAAAN LIKE ASDFGHJKL!!! Pardon my excitement, it's just that, it's my first print feature evaaaah so...yeah. =)) Special thanks to Zanti Jimenez! :)
I have A LOT to be thankful for this May! So how's everybody doin'? Hope you're all having fun basking in the sun (unlike me hehe)! That's it for now mi lovelies! 'Til the next post!

XO.
