summer of one-oh! ocean series: daanbantayan heaven!


i'm back from our annual beach trip to the northern most part of the island and i am definitely tan...ooops, wait brown from all the fun! mind you, my sun block is literally squeezed to death..haha!  i just can't get enough of the water -- my mom even asked my dad to set up a tent on the water so we can frolic all day without getting sun burnt (to know more about that, stick around for a future post and photos). my cousins from my dad's side came along so you can guess what happened --- we took so many photos that it's impossible to post everything in just one post. this beach trip will be done in 3 posts. part one begins now. 

the lady goofing off with me is my little sister, aimee. if she wasn't too lazy, she can start her own fashion blog  because she is as crazy about fashion and personal style as me. i'm more spontaneous in style though, she on the other hand tends to plan her outfit and accessories in accordance to everything she's wearing. i should have posted something about her on her birthday last march but we got into an argument days later and i intentionally forgot to post it. haha! sibling banters --- that's one thing my sister and i will always have. 

on to the outfit: if you take a non-airconditioned bus to anywhere in cebu, here are a few essentials --- a comfortable shirt and shorts, a scarf to protect your hair from dust, sunblock, sunnies and some bangles (welp, i don't have a significant explanation for that...haha!)
the food: lechon baboy (roasted pig), ngohiong (fried ubod spring rolls in batter) and puso (rice wrapped in banana leaves) and lots of cold water and coke!

on me: pink shirt - props | white polka shorts - divisoria | bikini top - props | yellow floral scarf - thrifted | bangles - all from props | sunnies - thrifted at carbon

on aimee: floral dress - props | yellow polka bikini top - props | green flip-flops - havaianas | bangles - all from props | pink sunnies - thrifted at manalili

fantastic post! ahh, as if you were in paradise! i wish i could swim in such a warm and crystal clear water!

Jen Hsieh said...

you and your sister are adorable (and you guys kind of look alike as well!). loving how you wrapped that scarf around your head.

as for the header links, i'd love to show you how! (mine need a little adjusting right now if you haven't noticed...haha) there's actually a tutorial online that i use (http://www.elated.com/articles/creating-image-maps/) or there is a site that'll let you make on directly on it (http://www.image-maps.com/) - i've never tried the second site out but it looks like it's pretty useful. :) let me know how it goes! hope this helped.
