Late Summer Clothing Haul



Hi dollies! Summer is almost over and I couldn't be happier to welcome my favorite season ever, Fall. But! I do wanna share a few spring/summer clothes I (kinda) recently got before the season is over.

The first item is a black and white plaid midi skirt from Forever21. I've been very into midi skirts this year and I just couldn't resist. It is really comfortable to wear and I think you can style it in many different ways by changing the accessories. In my case, I've been wearing it in a more casual way with t-shirts and sneakers. I'll try to see if I can make it work for fall too. We'll see.


Next we have a pair of skinny jeans, also from Forever21. These are high-wasted jeans and they are slightly ripped.

terrible pic... you can't even see the ripped parts, hehe

So, these next pieces are something I'm very excited about. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers T-shirts! I got the black one first, it is from Cuidado con el Perro and I got the small size for men because they only had them there. But not long ago, mom and I decided to go to Optima and found more MMPR tees, for women this time! I was super excited, especially because they had Pink Ranger ones and well, she was my favorite of course. They are both from a 25 year anniversary collection I believe. Love, love, love them.




And well, these last two pieces were pretty much hand me downs from my mom and I thought I'd include them here as well. Both are from Spain.

First we have a very light polka dots dress that I've been wearing as a jumper kind of dress with t-shirts underneath. It has wooden buttons on the front and a nice detail on the straps.



And the last one is a beautiful white skirt. It is super Summery and the details on it are just gorgeous. I don't think I got to use it as much as I should have this year but, I'm sure I'll wear it more next year. It's not as short as I usually choose my skirts but, it is really comfortable.



And that is that for this late Summer haul kind of thing. Who else is excited for Fall?

夏祭り 2015 (Natsu Matsuri)



Hey guys!
My Summer break is about to be officially over! But! I got the chance to go to a Natsu Matsuri (Japanese Summer festival) as my last trip out of the city.
And even tho the event wasn't as big as I thought it would be, the whole environment and people there made it all nice and fun.

There were some fun contests, yummy food and some goodies to buy. SO many cute families and...sake! YUM!
I went with my dad and sister and we had a really good time. The place was really pretty with big gardens and stuff.
They also had Ikebana classes but, I'm not good with flowers so...I just watched from afar~ hehe.






The festival was 2 days long, we only went on Saturday but, it was worth it. I did bought a few things but mostly food, sweets and yeah, sake. I actually wanted to be part of the Sake contest but the day was just too hot so we kinda left early. And now that I think about it...I also missed the sake degustation because the family was so anxious to eat first~~~~

Food was just great! My sister and I had bento while my dad decided to try a hot-dog with yakisoba on top and some okonomiyaki.


My yummy food!
Definitely want to come back next year!

Out & About: Fun in the sun! ☼



Hi guys!
I feel like I've been on the road too many times lately~~~~ Anyways!
Last weekend we celebrated my friend Keisha's birthday and since it's the Summer time we decided to do something different and go to this resort and spend a summer-ish day there. We jumped from pool to pool, to jacuzzi to thermal water. (which has to be THE best thing ever)
It felt SO good to relax all day in the water, leave the rainy days aside for a day and even being away from our phones all day long!
We made a mini picnic and got facemasks.

Definitely felt like a Summer break day. I would really like to go back and enjoy some relaxing time every once in a while.


Ok, you know me! I tend to take a ton of pics (and video) wherever I go! here are some of our day!











And also, Happy Birthday to the shopping buddy Keisha (again!) I'm so happy to celebrate another year in your life! I'm so proud of you and everything you've achieved so far! Many more great things to come!!


Random fact: I was called Marine Goddess the whole day!
xox Marine Goddess! kkk

And here's the vlog of our day!

Summer cleaning and giving away!




Hi hi!

This Summer has been definitely a busy one! I've been helping my sister with a great project she has going on. But even though we've been all over the place, I'm taking some time to make a huge room cleaning. And basically, it's not only cleaning, I'm also getting rid of the things I no longer use. I always wait until summer break to spend some time doing it since it's my longer break.

I can't believe all the things I have, and sometimes it's hard to find room for everything so, I pretty much separate what I really use and what I don't use anymore and give it to people who actually need it.
I still have some toys and things I had when I was a little girl and even though I love them, it's always good to make some space for the new things.
What I usually do is show the stuff I'm giving away to my close friends (and family) to see if they want to keep something. Once they check out my stuff, I give the rest to people in need.
This time I went through some makeup, perfumes, clothes, toys and even some decoration items. I always make sure I'm giving away things that are in good condition. Some of them were never even worn / used.

So, even though it takes a while to go through everything (It usually takes like a week) I feel really good doing it.
I think we all should try doing that at least once. It makes me happy to know that the things I don't use anymore can make someone happy.
