the beach, ice cream and a cute bikini is all i need

i love the beach. i love the smell of the ocean and wish that i could bottle it up and bring it around with me 24/7. there's definitely nothing more relaxing than just sitting on a sunny beach with glorious white sand and bright blue, clear sea water right in front of you. the sea breeze in your hair and a nice cold treat in your hand as you lie there basking in the natural sunlight with cool designer shades (karen walker!) and a really really really cute bikini. after all, it is important to look on point all the time. you never know who you might run into *wink wink*

nowadays there are so many different types of bikinis out there that it can sometimes be hard to choose the best one for yourself. so here i am with this post to share with all you beach loving girls like me, my top 3 favourite bikini styles.

the first type is a ruffled bikini. this type of bikini can help portray a feminine side to you and for all you flat girls (there's no shame in being flat by the way), you can play the ruffles trick by wearing this to make your chest look a bit fuller than normal. i can bet with you that the ruffles bikini will get you a lot of attention as you sit on the beach sipping on a nice glass of iced peach tea.


these are some examples of my ideal type of ruffle bikinis. the last one brings me to my second favourite type of bikinis. neon coloured bikinis! a neon coloured bikini (just like in the previous picture) is perfect if you want all eyes on you while you're at the beach. neon colours are extremely hot during the summer so you'll definitely be on track with the season's hottest colours. 


lastly, if you'd rather lay low but still want to look good enough to catch some envious stares, a patterned bikini will do the trick. you can pick any pattern like floral, aztec, geometric, etc. based on your own personal style. with a patterned bikini, you'll be able to look innocent yet playful. 




so there you go. by choosing the right bikini, you'll be able to enjoy that beach holiday of yours while feeling stunning, refreshed, and confident. a great place that i shop for my bikinis is at this website called zalora because they have a huge range of collections by local or international brands for me to choose from in getting a bikini for women online. i really love shopping at zalora in general because they not only have amazing stuff from clothes to makeup but they also have shipping that is affordable and not crazy expensive like some other websites that i've visited. pricey shipping fees are usually a turn off for me and most of the time change my mind when buying something online. so yeah, you guys should really check them out. that's all for now. hope you follow my tips in choosing a cute bikini for yourself and if you're going to the beach soon for a vacation trip, i hope you have fun and you should know that i envy you so much.

this is a rather cute yet stylish look that i came up with. if you've read my previous post / seen my last polyvore set, you'll know about my love for monochrome stuff and grid patterns. this grid dress from topshop is super cute yet it has a clean cut look which i adore. the windsor smith white leather flats really add to this look by making it classy yet still casual. for accessories, light pale pink just screams cuteness factor. this pink charles & keith purse is super duper adorable with it's shape and how it's also small and easy to carry around. to match that, POM POM EARRINGS! i recently went to tokyo for my winter break and noticed this trend for pom pom accessories to be in style. i think that they're not only quirky and unique but also adorable to the max. i didn't get a pair there because they were crazy expensive for just a pair of earring but i'll get them here at my local mall the next time i go there. lastly, these karen walker shades are TO-DIE-FOR! sadly they cost a fortune even for something second hand :( 

i really like this look and i might try to shop it if i can since most of the pieces are pretty affordable. also, i'll be blogging about my tokyo trip after christmas so stay tuned :)

hello hello! lately i've been so in love with this trend of oversized big coats that you have no idea. i'm dying to own a coat like the one in this collage but sadly i live in a country that only has summer all year round :'( i would also love to wear turtle necks all the time as they're so cute but the weather just isn't in my favour on this one. also, grid patterned clothing has really caught my interest such as the skirt in the above collage. the other day, i saw some extra cool grid patterned pants from topshop that would go excellent with little black leather boots. pointy toed boots are also my new favourites as they give off a sort of chic impression that you're some high fashion mogul that is ready to rule the world with your killa' style. lastly, cute round shades and cute leather backpacks are always a yes. one extra tip: if you're dressing in all black and white (monochrome), don't forget to top it off with an accessory with a colour that stands out to make your look pop!
