Must - Try Summer Outfits

" For them, SUN is GOLD." - That's what my aunt always tells me whenever I ask her why Italians love summer. Today is sooo HOT! It's a good time to go to beaches, roam around Milan, go out-of-town and of course, go Shopping - wee! It's SALDI month!

I find it easier to dress up and play with clothes during summer than in winter,spring and fall. You can wear maxi dresses and/or skirts. If you want, a comfortable tank top and shorts and pair it with wedges or flats. Now, the most-seen outfits are white dresses, floral maxi dresses and pastels.

Here are some outfits I'd like to try :)

Charm Bracelet,Clay Pens and a Giveaway!

Ms. Jazel of J&J Fashion was generous enough to give me this colorful bracelet together with pearl and feather earrings and clay pens.

This bracelet is very cute. It is made up of golden chain with colorful and decorative pendants. Variety of charms such as umbrella, shoes, smileys and bag , makes the bracelet looks chic and playful. They also complements the bracelet. Also,the spacing of charms is enough to balance its appearance.

Review: Tears of Artemis Necklace

Ms. Sam of Eazy Fashion was generous enough to give me this wonderful TEARS OF ARTEMIS necklace.
I really love its name (Tears- sounds dramatic ,huh? + Artemis, Greek Goddess of the wilderness, hunt and wild animals).

The necklace is made up of brown faux leather cord, brass chains, 1 heart-shaped brass pendant and faux pearls in circle, oval and tear shape.

EAZY FASHION: Your One-Stop Wholesale and Retail Fashion Shop

Clothes, shoes & accessories are girls' bestfriends. We always wanted to look good.. charming.. fabulous! Being stylish is not as easy as one plus one, you need to have a good taste on fabrics, colors and cuts and of course, a good amount of penny (we all know that) but if you can't buy expensive clothes and you're on a tight budget, never worry. Remember girls, Fashion isn't about BRAND, it's about STYLE.

Online shopping becomes more and more popular now and it's great to see that our fellow entrepreneurs are engaging themselves on this kind of business. There are many online stores to choose from but few offers high quality products at affordable prices .. and one of them is Eazy Fashion.

Eazy fashion is a wholesale and retail fashion shop that carries fashion accessories from Asian countries like Korea, Japan and many more.

This is the reason why Eazy Fashion was born.The company rolled out its stylish and posh products in an online store in Multiply just in March 15, 2011.

Cookies & Cream

I was so excited to attend Selecta Cornetto's Grand Eye Ball which was held at SM Megatrade Hall 1 last May 5,2012. Unfortunately, I came too late so I wasn't able to join the eye ball *sigh*. However, I had so much fun dressing up.It was a white party which means all people attending the event should wear all-white clothes, but the admins allowed guests not to be in all-white attire. You can wear a white top paired with colored pants or shorts or vice versa.

I have never been a huge fan of white shirts or anything white. I find white very plain and oh-so-boring -oops! but that was before! Now, I adore white tees, pants and dresses, maybe because I know now how to make them look stylish just by adding some cute accessories or by pairing them with bold prints and colors.

For the event, I decided to wear a white tee paired with black maong shorts. It looks very plain, so I

added a white blazer and gray stockings! I really love stockings and long socks!

On me: Sisley White tee , Black maong shorts , United Colors of Benetton bag, Spanner Blazer,Beige shoes -SM, Gray stockings and White belt form Y.R.Y.S.

Accessories: White silver cross earrings and again, my fave rings! Sadly, I forgot to wear my necklace.

If you were me, what would you wear on a White party? Share it with us!

Xoxo,
Pham

Buy Eyeglasses Online: Vision & Fashion the Frugal Way

Republish Article and Win Free Eyewear Plus Free Shipping

A month ago, CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) published a piece of news about purchasing eyeglasses online; a month later, this news has already been commented on by thousands of people. With the rise of purchasing eyeglasses online, more and more eyeglass wearers have begun to focus their attention on it. However, with regard to buying eyewear online, some support it while others still have doubts about it. What has turned numerous eyeglass wearers from traditional brick-and-mortar eyeglass stores to online ones? Firmoo's slogan tells you everything: Vision and Fashion the Frugal Way.

Most eyeglasses wearers have purchased eyeglasses at traditional eyeglass stores. Nevertheless, due to the limited styles and unaffordable prices, consumers have had to regard eyeglasses as a medical tool used to correct vision instead of a fashion accessory. But now, with the emergence of online eyeglass shopping, we can get fashionable eyeglasses at reasonable prices. Among the many online eyeglass stores, Firmoo, which combines fashion and economy, is undoubtedly the most outstanding one.

Fashion Inspiration

You stand in front of the mirror.. look at yourself and you feel that there's something missing or sometimes, you feel like your outfit looks boring. Guess what., you're not alone because sometimes I feel the same way. So I decided to grab some photos from various fashion magazines and websites/web blogs to give us some inspiration . Check it out!

This one's simple yet chic.

I love the layering and the checkered button-down shirt under a black leather jacket.

What i love about this outfit is the 'boy-meets-girl-style'.

The bow necktie gave the outfit an edgy and manly look.

My Year Ender outfit!

I am so in love with this dress. I decided to wear it for New Years Eve celebration. I paired it with a black blazer and red shoes. I added a red clutch and some gold bracelets.
