The First of Summer

It's officially summertime! Hoorah!! I'm so excited my adrenaline is still pumping like crazy. Well the title clearly says first which means there's more to come. oh yeah.

First stop, Sta. Cruz Island here in Zamboanga City. It is known for its pink sand and a good place just for pure relaxation and unwinding.

To go to the island you need a security escort for your own safety. Peace and order is unpredictable, we never know.

The sun is shining bright, what a perfect day for the beach. 

This is what they call the pink sand, it's a mixture of white sand and crushed red corals which gives it the pink/orange shade

I was really tempted to touch that but it was loaded so... never mind. haha

Happy mode. I just love going to the beach, wind in my hair, sand in my feet, smell of fresh breeze. Ah, feels like paradise. 

Caught some Starfishes! Really cool colors, what a lovely sight!

Me (don't know what I'm doing,) just enjoying the cool waters. 

My Sisters doing the mandatory jump shot by the beach haha :)

While I was walking, can't help but feel so awed when i saw this it was so sweet i wished i brought my dog with me. 

A genius idea to enjoy the water without too much of the sun. 

Yey! that sums up my Sta Cruz Island adventure. :)

Sweet Disposition

A quick post to end the weekend. My classes begins tomorrow. Uh-oh. Still not up for it. Summer why you end so soon? Hope everyone enjoyed there summer! I did! 

Here's what I wore during our visit to the breath taking town of San Gimignano. Don't mind my socks. haha.  

Shirt - Bershka

Leather Pants - H&M

Shoes - Fred Perry

Eyewear - Mango

Leather Bag - Massimo Dutti

Volare

We were welcomed with pouring rain and bone chilling wind during our day visit to Venice! Not the welcome we expected. So we did the only thing we could. Look for a warm restaurant to hang out until the rain stopped. Lesson learned, really should have checked the weather before taking the 2 hour train ride from Florence. In luck, things came around after lunch! Hurray for that! The rain stopped and we were finally able to explore the city.

View from the gondola dock.

When I saw this. It reminded me of Angelina and Johnny Depps movie the Tourist! It was in one of the scenes they shot!

Venice is also known as the City of Masks. The different variety of masks could be seen in mostly all of the street kiosks. 

I've always wanted to imitate those flocked with pigeon moment you usually see in the movies. So what the heck, I grabbed the chance i could. Had some crackers stored in my bag, yes my "baon" and tried it. :) It was just wicked! Problem was, later on I was reprimanded by some officer! Found out we're not allowed to feed the birds. :) 

P.S. Lookie! There's a guy taking my photo? paparazzi alert! feeer much? haha. 

Here's a few shots where I didn't look scared and stupid. haha.

If you're wondering what's that stripe thingy hanging from my bag. That's my mom's LV scarf. It really didn't compliment my ensemble so I tied it in my bag which made it looked more weird. haha. 

Cardigan - Zara | White Polo - H&M | Laced Shorts - Zara | Boots - Nine West

When I saw those lace shorts from the stacks I knew I just have to buy them. My mom insisted I buy all the colors. Guess where I get my shopping manners from? haha.

Well, that's about it. 'til my next post. :) Keep your head up guys and keep smiling! :)

Just Outside My Window

Finally! As promised, here is my very late blog post. I'm really sorry for a month long delay because I am currently preparing myself for an education of a lifetime. Can you guess what it is? Yes, If you were thinking of becoming a doctor, it is a life-long learning. So better change your mind now before it's too late!! Haha Kidding aside, here are pictures from my Malaysia trip last April.

This is the view from my Hotel window at Genting Highlands. Isn't it so breathtaking? Waking up every morning with a view like this is priceless. We were so high up the mountain we can even touch or feel the clouds passing by on our window! (which has been my childhood dream as I remember! Who doesn't wanna try to touch the clouds when they were a kid right?) 

 As you can see in the background, we rode the cable car down to the city from the highlands.  

Another comfy clothes for a whole day of touring the city of Kuala Lumpur. Touring a city would mean walking, shopping and walking. Ergo, Sleeveless shirt and skirt for breathy feel and my ever trusty sandals that never failed me. We have had all the obstacles you can imagine and boy these are the best! From the most rockiest roads to puddles of mud whether rain or shine it never gave up on me. But now I shall give it it's rest, I think I already overused it too much. :)

Top: Plains and Prints

Skirt: Topshop

Sandals: Charles and Keith

And here is my take on the famous landmark of KL, the Petronas Twin Towers. It is located on the heart of the city where it is bustling with tourists and locals ready for shopping. That in the middle right there is the viewing deck where you have to get in line early in the morning just to get tickets to the deck. But the best time to take a picture with the towers is between 6 to 8pm which is the time when I got this shot.

Here Comes the Sun

Hola!  I just got back from Singapore!

Theme parks! I wish i could put into words how awesome they are, after all who doesn't love them? Downside at times is the really long walks and i don't even wanna start on how long some of the lines one bares waiting for our turn. Nonetheless, I still think their AWESOME!

 Here is what I wore at Universal Studios, breathable clothes and flats are essential for all day comfort. 

Located in the little red dot of Asia, Universal Studios Singapore is rather little compared to its other counterparts. But don't speak to soon. Piece of information is, it's jam packed full of large rides in a small area!

Mitchy here! At hand is my initial look post! It's nothing fancy. I needed comfy clothes for all the wandering and tourist stuff we had that day. My dad decided he'd give me a tour of Macau seeing that I'm the only one in our family who havent been able to set foot there! I'll rant all about our trip on my next post.

The denim top was actually a treat from my Tito last month. He insisted on indulging us on an early Christmas gift! I've been using this top a lot lately. It's cause it's so easy to wear, especially when I'm in a hurry and have no time to rummage my clothes. 

Notice I'm wearing my favorite chucks! You can never go wrong with wearing plain old chucks. It's my go to shoes when i wanna feel my feet needs restful. I've had these pair for 5 years! A hand me down from my brother which he outgrew long before I was still taller than him. 

Hope you like this look! 

I'll try to post more soon!
