Summer Looks

Yay, it's summer in our part of the world and I can feel the scorching heat of the sun!

Now is the time to go out and enjoy the sun .. but hey don;t forget your SUNBLOCK! for it can help protect your skin from the harsh and harmful effects of sun when you are exposed too much.

This is also the perfect time to show off some skin when you go to the beach, swim at the pool or just take a nature tripping. Always make sure to wear comfortable, light and cool clothing so you will be more at ease wherever you go. Summer is about fun colors, flipflops, shorts, tank tops and more.

Enjoy the summer!

YAY, Summer !

Numerous people today are using Internet dating websites trying to find a potential life partner. Consequently, dating has become easier than it used to be. Whether you are new to the dating game or a veteran at dating, the below 5 tips can give you some ideas of how to prepare for your date.


Being Prepared Mentally and Physically – Prepare yourself mentally before your date. Always have in the back of your mind what type of person you are excited about meeting. Keep in mind that even though you are ready to meet the potential Mr. or Miss Right, things may not work out the way you plan. Be prepared physically for your date as well. It is great to meet your date for the first time and have them notice how healthy you are. Try getting on a regular exercise routine by going for walks and doing things that make you look healthier. This will not directly help you find the perfect date, but it will do wonders for boosting your confidence while on the date.


Wear New Clothes – Buying new clothes and shoes to wear on your date will boost your confidence. Maybe you want to try a new hairstyle or have a relaxing beauty treatment before you go. The more confident you feel, the more comfortable you will be on your date, and the better you will interact with them.


Setting Goals for Dating – Are you planning or hoping for marriage in a few years? If so, be honest about that with your date. If you are only looking for fun and a short-term relationship, you should be honest about that as well. Ask yourself some questions about what you want before you go out with your date, because your date may start asking you questions, and you want to be ready with your answers.


Relax and Do Not Reveal Too Much – Relax and enjoy your date completely. Dating is not always going to end up in marriage, but it is a great way to socialize and meet new people. Dating is a great learning experience that allows you to see what you really are looking for. On your search for new love, you may make a couple of new friends as well. While you are on your date, do not reveal everything about who you are. Try to make your date last longer, and reveal information about yourself slowly. If you keep some information to yourself, your date will be curiously interested in knowing more about you. This will prompt them to meet you again and again. The more time you and your date have with each other, the better your relationship can become.


Always Be Ready to Accept Rejection – Always be prepared for a negative outcome on a date. If your date rejects you, do not get upset and yell or be angry at them. Think about it as being positive. If your date has drawbacks about you, think about what you can do to fix those things. Or, realize that maybe this is not the right person for you to begin with and move on. Never stop dating because of one bad incident. Try to remain calm, and try again until you find the right person.


Dating can be nerve-wracking, interesting and exciting all at the same time. Try following some of the tips above to make your dating experience easier. And finally, the most important tip don’t forget to use deodorant!

Summer Colors: Coral and Navy

I never thought that these 2 colors (coral and navy) go well together.

Summer is here in our part of the world and wearing sleeveless tank tops and shorts are greatly advisable. It's much more comfy if your top will be of cotton material as it can absorb your sweat and will be cool in your body. Avoid silk materials if possible esp. if you will be under the sun for it will make you sweat so much.

Would love to wear this look soon, i just need to find a nice top like this when I go shopping maybe this weekend.

Choosing Nail Polish To Match Your Mood

swirly purple konad nail art

It is the right season when you can see trendy females with fashion at their toes and style at their fingertips – it is the season for pedicures and manicures. That is when most women show interest in buying a few new bottles of nail polish in shades that would say a lot about their personalities and mood. It does not really matter if you are a salon regular, a do-it-yourselfer, or somewhere in the middle, there is a diverse range of new tricks, colours and trends to entice you.

Picking the Right Shade

Nail polish has always been a popular way to change your look or simply enhance your outfit. However, you need to take some care when selecting a shade because it can reveal a lot about your personality and mood. For instance, if you meet a woman with nail art over their manicure, you should quickly know you are meeting a risk taker and a fun personality. Similarly, nail art with strong, bright colours points to a free spirit who does not mind experimenting a bit with her look.

It is worth mentioning that in today's world when nails have become the most important accessory, many women tend to choose a shade regardless of mood; instead, they pick a shade considering the colour of their outfit, which is why nude shades are quite common – you can read more about nude shades HERE.

Due to the demands of different shades, popular brands and manufacturers are now offering interesting nail polish deals. However, you should bear in mind that the colour you choose would express your feelings and let others know about your mood, or the way you feel on a particular day. Here is a bit more about the colours you should change with a change in mood.

• In case you are feeling a bit sad, the best colour to express your mood would be dark blue. You may also opt for grey to show you are not in the mood.

• If something has made you angry and you think you will stay in that mood for some time, try black or aubergine to express your feelings.

• On days when you feel extremely happy, you can always opt for brighter shades. The best choice in this case would be to polish with turquoise or pink – some may also like to choose red to show they are happy, but you should avoid it, as red is associated with love. However, if you are feeling happy because you are in love, do not stop yourself from trying red nail polish – solid white shade is also a good way of showing you are in love.

• On days when you do not understand anything and are in a state of confusion, the best shade would be green or mustard. However, you should change the shades if you are more anxious than confused – the right shade in this case would be beige or sheer white.

In Style: Lace Skirt

Loving this look!

The lovely lace skirt made it dainty and feminine while the orange top (love the color!!) made it a little bolder and eye-catching. The turquoise necklace made it even more interesting and I just love the arm candies and the oversized watch. I am trying to figure out if this look will fit me, might as well try one day.
