It's summer! So what do we do during summer? Let's go to the beach beach and parteehhh!
Here are my picks for this summer:

One of the best cover ups and swimsuit I saw. It is elegant and so classy. I will definitely buy them both for a fashionable summer getaway! :)

Ruffled triangle top, this kind of swimwear are for girls that is a little bit flat chested. It will give illusion that your boobies are not that flat. hehehe

I saw Solenn Heussaff on her instagram wearing the same kind of swimwear. It is so sexy!

One piece, this is simple but I love the small details on this swimsuit.

The perfect way to enjoy the beach is the perfect music. Don't forget to bring your mp3s, ipad, ipod
or any gadget that can produce music. Plus a speaker or a earphones. Then, turn on the reggae music.

The beach bag should be huge to bring all those necessary things!!! XD

Add to your arm collection this wonderful charm bracelet. It is so colorful.
LOVE for summer! Summer is LOVE! <3 p="">

You don't  want to step on the hot sand while walking and finding the spot to chill right?
Don't forget to bring your flip flops.

Cause I knew wearing pale lipstick was trouble. Hehehe I am not used wearing pale lipstick. I am more of bright colour lipstick like red, hot pink, then red again girl. I feel much girly wearing bright colours for my lips. I feel prettier too. I wished I added colour to my lips. Looking at the photos makes me feel weird. It looks like I am sick. Hahahaha

Anyways, I have chosen a floral dress and a teal cardigan for a summer look. The heat of summer is starting to burst out little by little especially during afternoon. Do you agree? I like summer but I hate the humidity here in the Philippines. I feel icky and sticky after a long day out of the house when humidity strikes. I hope this summer won’t be that hot as before. Furthermore, it might be a little hot to wear a cardigan during summer. But this baby isn’t, it is 100% cotton from forever 21.

Give me some love even though love month is over. So for the first day of March I will give you, drum roll please.. An outfit post! Woot.. Achievement for me to keep up an outfit post from time to time. As my friends know me, I am the laziest person to upload photos in the internet world. Hahaha This is the reason of so many backlogs but twenty-thirteen will be different. Crossfingers, I hope so too. This one is a little bit late because of work and busy schedule.

The photos partake when we went to Pasinaya 2013 at CCP where my sister joined too then, we had our lunch at Mall of Asia. The photos were at the parking lot. Hehe Excuse my big thigh on the photo. hihihi

We arrived at Club Balai Isabel before lunch time. After we checked-in, we hurriedly ate at Terrazan Café it is the only restaurant in Club Bali Isabel. It was beside the swimming pools and it has a nice view of Taal Volcano. As for lunch, here we go! We ordered Batangas Bulalo, Fish Fillet with Sauce (I forgot the name of the sauce), Mix Chicken and Pork Adobo, Rice and for dessert Buko pandan. Too bad, I am so serious eating I forgot to take photos of buko pandan. It was so delicious and creamy. 

The foods were so tasty and yummy. The Batangas Bulalo as for non-Filipinos, it is the boiled boned marrow of the beef with vegetables and soup. It is one of my favorite dishes. Compared to the original bulalo, this one has a distinct taste. The fish fillet has a mango sauce. It is something unique and flavorful. While the adobo is good too but to be honest no one can beat my lola’s adobo. Hihi Finally, for dessert, the buko pandan. It has a vanilla ice cream that added deliciousness in it. Must-try! 

FOR LUNCH:

FOR DINNER:

Dinner time, I was still full. So I ate only few bites of everything. Hahaha We ordered taliwis, bagnet, rice and pansit. The bagnet was so crispy and crunchy. I like it. But I think it is a little bit pricey for a small piece of banget. Hehe 

The Crispy Bagnet.

Pansit.

FOR BREAKFAST:

Good morning! Breakfast is one of my favorite meals. They offer varieties of breakfast meal like Filipino breakfast, American breakfast and many more. I ordered bacon and eggs plus bread, it’s an American breakfast. As usual, another favorite of mine, (baka sabihin nyo fave ko na lahat, nyhahaha.) hunny ordered Filipino breakfast consist of tapa, longanisa, danget and garlic rice. With fruits and plus extra bacons for me. So heavy! 

Filipino Breakfast - Tapa, Longanisa, dried fish and garlic rice.

Toasted bread, 2 eggs and bacons.

Now, I can say traveling and eating is really a good combination. I hope I made you crave for food. Hehe What would be my verdict? 4 out of 5, because it's a little bit pricey and we did  not experience the buffet. hahaha Maybe next time.

This post was in my draft for almost a month now. This is worth blogging. I want to share with you my Club Balai Isabel Chillax time. Haha It was Krisza’s birthday, I was invited to come with them to have fun and enjoy the nature at its best. 

Club Balai Isabel is a place where you can see Taal Volcano up close and personal. Hehe The place has a good view of Taal Volcano and in touch with nature. It is also the place where Oyo Boy Sotto and Kristine Hermosa got married. I was not that familiar with the place but once they describe it and told me about Oyo and Kristine I think I remembered it right away. Hahaha It is located at Talisay, Batangas. I think it is 1 to 2 hours from Manila to get there.

To have a better view, I embed the video of Oyo and Kristine. I love their wedding kasi. Hihi Then, check out my photos afterwards...
