Hello. I know, I know. I'm sorry I've been gone for a while; it's just I'm busy with school, and it's finals week. I'm excited with a lot of things! Today, I'm going to do a different post.

Here are the 7 things I love about summer:

1. Dresses - Oh em gee! Yes, I am able to wear dresses! I have prepared my sundresses on the first day of spring! The days get lovelier and lovelier, and I cannot wait to wear them all.

2. Bubble Tea - I'm not sure if you know anything about this tasty drink. They are those drink with tapioca (black bubbles) on the bottom. These are amazing! I have one favorite bubble tea place here in my city, so if you don't know if you have one near yours, just go to yelp.com and check! :)

3. Flip Flops - Of course these are a must have for me! I have 10 of them to be exact -- different colors and brands. These are great when you are just running errands or hanging out with your friends. They are very comfortable, too.

4. Sunglasses - Definitely a summer staple! I do not go anywhere without my sunglasses. They are cute, sexy, and they protect your eyes, what more do you want?

5.Shorts - I don't know about you, but what I don't like about winter are those pants/jeans that I have to wear because of the cold weather. Shorts are great because they let your legs breathe and you feel more relaxed.

6. Fruits - I don't only love the fashion trends during the summer season, but I also love the foods, and fruits are most definitely not an exception.

7. Beach - Enough said.

Summer is the time to relax and have fun. Even if you're spending your whole summer trapped at work or at home, make sure to make the best of it! :) And do not forget the sunblock! Have fun! xx


The set below is my interpretation of summer fun! I hope you like it. <3

So what do you think? What are included in your list? Are you doing anything special this summer? Let me know on the comments below! :)

I admit: cropped tops are one of my favorite summer staples, and I've been seeing a lot of these at the mall. I have a lot of these! These are very casual and great for days at the beach or whenever you're hanging out with your friends by the pool.

When creating a look with a cropped top, I think you are better off with high-waisted pants, skirts, and shorts. If you want to pair it with a low-waist short, you can layer a tank top underneath. These are also great if you want to layer it under a fitted dress or a basic maxi dress. There are numerous styles and prints when it comes to cropped tops: there are the basic loose cropped tee and basic cropped tank top, and the ones that you tie by the waist to cinched it up. If you're dealing with a cropped top with lots of fabric, you could always tuck the front.

I think cropped tops are pretty straight forward. You either like them or you don't. So what do you think? Are you going to try this trend? How would you create a look with a cropped top? Let me know on the comments below! :)

I'm back with my another summer staple series. For this post, I will focus on beach bags. There are several different choices on what your beach bag should look like. For the set I've created, I chose a straw bag, a nautical-themed bag, a bright-colored bag, and a floral bag. You could choose any of those, but if you were to ask me which one I will choose, I will go with a bright-colored tote bag just because I think it's fun. Bright colors, especially yellow, remind me of the hot summer days I spent at the beach with my friends last summer, and this summer isn't going to be an exception.

When buying a beach bag, make sure you will consider the following:
* Price - Since you will use this bag during the summer, do you really need an expensive one? Ask yourself that question, then decide.
* Size - You have to remember that this bag will carry your stuffs that you will need on the beach. Towels, change of clothes and/or cover-up dresses, sunscreen, mp3 player, a good book, water, and after-sun soothing lotion. You have to have a bag that's big enough to carry all the things I mentioned above.
* Material Type - We don't want leather bags on the beach, ladies. Would you bring you designer handbags just to be covered in sand? No, I don't think so.

As for me, I already have a beach bag. Since I spent my winter and spring break at home, I'm suuuuper excited to go on a vacation this summer! Until my next summer staple series!

What are your plans this summer? Do you already have a beach bag? Are you excited to go on a vacation? Let me know on the comments below! :)

Summer is almost here! If you see or hear the word SUMMER, what automatically enters your mind?

Here's mine:
- Sunglasses
- Beach
- Smoothies!
- Shorts or skirts
- Dresses - ohh, the dresses.

My list could go on, but those are just some of the things I love about summer. Since today is a lovely day here in the Mid-Atlantic, here's a summer look that could be useful for a day at the beach, or if you're just chilling out with your friends. Happy Summer! :D

And PS. ALWAYS bring sunblock.
