#OnlineShopping : Zaful Haul

Last Augus 28, 2017 I shop this dress and shoes online at Zaful.com. And much like my previous purchased in Zaful the quality are excellent with its affordable price. It really doesn't disappoint. 

I really like the cloth of the cami dress, perfect summer dress and can also be worn with a top underneath during cool weather.  I cant wait to share the different ways to wear this dress. This is a one size dress which can fit on small to medium frame.

As for the shoes, its the first time that I bought a shoes in this type. So it was a big gamble for me shopping it online. Thankfully, it was great buy. It really is breathable with its mesh design. And I also like that its not the typical design that you usually found in stores locally, which makes it kind of unique when I wear it. Do take note that this isn't a sports shoes as it's name stated, this one is kinda more of a casual shoes only.

Checkout how I wore and style this dress and shoes in my future outfit post.

My Top Picks of Sweater Dresses from Dresslily

I love fall because of cardigans, sweater dresses and boots. And so today's post I will be sharing my  top picks of sweater dresses for fall from Dresslily.

I actually had a hard time picking the best one to showcase because there are lots of stylish and chic sweater dresses to choose from. So to help me out in picking the best one for me...
(1) I go for something that is easy to style, something that when you wear it you don't have to think a lot on what accessories to go with it because its already modish on its own.
(2) I also pick the ones that can also be worn in our country whom doesn't really have a fall season.

P.S. If you're interested on any of this sweater dresses click the image to see more details.

What do you think of my top picks?

What I Wore | Twinset Ribbed Sweater & Knitted Skirt

I just realized that its been awhile since Ive posted and outfit post. So today I'll be sharing one...

I actually have lots of outfit post seating in my hard drive and Im so overwhelm which one to share first here in the blog. I've been a lazy blogger. >.<

Anyways, this outfit Im sharing now is the one I've reviewed in this post, few months ago, from SammyDress.com. I just thought its the perfect time to share this look now because I'm wishful thinking of colder Ber months in a our tropical country. I really love this knitted twinset and this is a perfect cozy outfit for cold days.
For now though, I've worn casually the knitted skirt but unfortunately not the ribbed sweater because of its thick texture.

How was the weather from your side? Is it cold or hot?

Zaful Bikini Wishlist

 

 Zaful Bikini Ici

Shopping for everything nowadays gets extra hard because you have so many options where to shop. And not only that, the wide variety of design and styles makes it even more harder. The good thing though is that the designs became more versatile, so if you choose wisely you can wore it again in different season and occasions. All you need is to mix and match it wisely.

On that note, here are some modish bikinis Ive browse at Zaful.com which Im thinking of adding to my closet...
What I love about the styles of this bikini is that the stylish top can also be worn casually. You just layer something on top of it and your good to go... You're swimming ready any time as well. ^_^

Justine's 12 Birthday

To the boy that turned my life into an unexpected and meaningful journey... Happiest birthday! 🎂🎉 Having you is such a blessing. You may appear fancy, but you amaze me with a conservative perspective on things. You may be bossy, but you have the softest and kindest heart, most especially to lonely/homeless/disabled people you see. I hope you'll lessen your time on gadgets and more time on enhancing your skills and talent. Don't let shyness and disappointments stop you from doing things. As I always said to you... "More practice makes you better the next time. Be patient." May you continually grow into a sweet, loving, smart, gentleman and cheerful boy. Always remember that Mama loves you so much, Justine Mars! 😚❤

#OnlineShopping: Dresslily Haul

A package delivered via Air21 the other day and I was very surprise with it. It was the clothes that Ive shopped online, at Dreslily.com, last week. Usually my online shopping orders arrived a month after ordering it but was surprised it arrived 5 days to be exact. All the items Ive selected though are priority dispatch, which you can easily spot because they are marked with "Item dispatched within 3-5 business days."

And when I opened it, I was happy with whats inside. The quality of the clothes are great. I ordered 3 items, jogger pants, palazzo pants, and a white crop top. The jogger pants is for my son because he love joggers. The quality was good, its not thick which is great for a tropical country like ours. Although there loss threads but the stitching is all good.
The next one I shop is the palazzo pants which I think was a love at first sight when I saw it on the website, didn't think twice in adding it to cart. I like the cloth, its cotton blend. Its so soft and flowy.
The last thing I got is this white crop top, which I initially for the bohemian skirt I recently shop online. However, it turns out to be a perfect pair for the palazzo pants. The cloth is knitted cotton and its not itchy. Its soft and not thick. I also like that the crop top is not that short so I can wear it not really worry on exposing too much skin or a.k.a extra belly fats. :D
   Overall experience was excellent... I recommend shopping at Dreslily.com.

Bride of the Water God

A lot of people compared this drama to Goblin but the ending of this drama is way better than that of Goblin. I actually like the story of this drama. There's probably some missing factor to get hooked with it but a least in this drama everything make sense... Well except for that swimming part with awkward hands though... :D 

There's a lot of things shown in every episode of this drama... How much will you give up for power (Ha Baek)... for friendship (Bireom)... for family (Soah's dad)... for humanity (Mr Shin)... for love (Moorah and Ha Baek).... and for yourself (Mr Shin and Ha Baek)... 

Life is all about your journey and how strong enough are you to journey further. I also commend Mr Shin's assistant for trying to make that friendnemy of SoAh realize her actions to be a better person. Her attitude is really annoying. I also like how it ended... fair enough for a human and deity love story.
