It's the middle of May and I forgot to mention that I FINALLY GRADUATED COLLEGE. Yes, no more four walls of green-colored uniforms and overbearing teachers. But hello to the real world. Yes, welcome to unemployment life (however, I'm still waiting on this job I have yet to hear from!). But enough about that. After graduation, there's this season called summer and we all know what first comes to mind with this season, BEACH. 
Here's to the first adventure of the year with the family at one of the most visited places in the Philippines. Revisiting this place of pure nature and history after 7 years with the best people to hang around with.
Hats off to welcome 2015 with my
Back last October, my parents came home bringing box that homed two of the most adorable things I have ever seen in my life.

I actually got the courage to show a bit of midriff and back. I'm not much of skin-baring style kind of person; but the top was too cute not to buy. So I thought, why not? I took a risk- in a way.
I thought of going ethnic/tribal with this ensemble because the yellow midriff top looked good "ethnic enough" to pair with my "tribal paisley" printed skated skirt. I added my favorite turquoise necklace- which always reminds me of Pocahontas and her turquoise necklace in the movie- to add more color to the outfit because I love adding colors onto colors.  So you could say this outfit was inspired a little bit of Pocahontas.
Now the back~ the back was the statement of this whole outfit. I decided to put my hair in a ponytail to emphasize the ribbon detail at the back so everyone can witness it. Haha! Adding more to skin-baring phenomena, I showed a little bit of midriff- sans abs line- and kept the shoes into a minimalistic black open-toed sandals.
