Dear summer,
I'm so happy you're finally here (well, not that you weren't always here in the Philippines), It just feels a lot like summer now.
Anyway, before I talk about my summer plans. I will first show you (with utmost excitement) my Baccalaureate outfit last March 27. I never had a really good photo on that day because I was only with my mom and she had to sit at the parents' area and wasn't able to take a good photo, it was too early in the morning and we were running late thus we both look like zombies. So yes, I decided to have a separate photo shoot of my outfit (Hahahahaha! I have that confidence of a Fashion Bloggaaah).
My outfit was of course sponsored by my parents (Lol!) as well as, the old accessories and pair of shoes. This wasn't exactly my look on the baccalaureate, I had half of my hair tied up and I wasn't wearing any sunnies. For blogging purposes, I just settled on having these things.
As I've grown older, I started to love pieces that are too simple (too minimalistic to be exact). I still love those bright colored floral pieces which is very sweet-sixteen-anna, but not as strong as before anymore. I'm in love with neutrals, black, white and most especially, grey. I love being Hepburn with it.
Summer is all about the brights, the showing off of skin and just being too fun with anything. Today, I decided to open summer with the color grey. It is not really a color to describe me, as I am only either a black or a white (or a yellow or a pink hahaha). I never considered grey in my life. All the more because it symbolizes loss, sadness and depression. Sometimes, I asked myself what if I had been a color grey instead of the brights, emotionless and dull? Grey is never a friend of summer. I am a non-conformist and so I chose grey not just because I'm a very pa-unique person but because it is the most misunderstood color, despite the fact that it embodies coolness and balance in life.
I will be a friend of the color grey this summer. Because maybe, grey only needs a friend he can be at ease at (a color-loving girl), a friend who will understand him despite being dingy. Having said that, grey exemplifies sophistication against all moods.
As a disclaimer: I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT CHRISTIAN GREY! (my goodness)
I decided to balance my life this summer. I enrolled for my second degree and had my first summer class this morning. I chose to go to school during the mornings and do leisure times on the afternoon. I am now excited going on the afternoon summer adventures!
1.) Go to at least 3 beaches
2.) Go on a road trip
3.) Read 5 novels
4.) Sleep a lot
5.) Pass my one and only summer class (Hahahaha! Crucial)
It's never a bad thing to be a grey person. With the right pop of color, grey can be a summer color too. I am a grey babe with red lips and electric blue block-heels.
Do I look like a Fashion Blogger now? Lol. Kidding. I tried my best guys.
Sunnies: Sunnies Studios "Bianca" (Hahaha remember my Christmas Wishlist?) | Watch: Casio | Dress: Dorothy Perkins | Shoes: Thrifted!!! -----------> I am feeling this area.
Love,
Patricia Grey (Oooops! I know what you're thinking and I am certainly not a fan!)
P.S. Hello, Ate Jamie of Spotlight on Jamie, did I give justice to Bicol fashion blogging? Lol you can reject me, it's fine. Hahahaha love you!
