Style of the Month: Prints and Patterns

Style of the Month: Prints and Patterns

Browsing the internet one can really get thousands of ideas. There are times where you are thinking about a certain topic, tried searching for further details, taking notes of the information you gather and then just because of a certain change of window, something came popping on your mind again.

And you know what’s the worst part is? Forgetting the real reason why you are gathering certain information as new ideas came flooding on your mind that you can’t help yourself but to put it on print and share it to every one.

Well, this is it, one faithful summer morning I was collecting a data about a certain work related topic, changed tab and then boom it’s Pinterest a social network where people posts images, women’s apparel at most flood on that web page at that moment. And I was awestruck as new ideas rush in my head I was itching to put it on print and here it is “Style of the Month: Prints and Patterns”

This photo is reason why my head becomes covered with something else. The first thing that caught my attention was the clothes she was wearing, vibrant, colorful with different print in all sorts of patterns. It looks so summerish and the fashion jewelry she was wearing is so cool, remember the trend for this year, simple but chunky, tribal and colorful beads. Then I notice her expression and I was lost, left with no other choice but to leave what I have been doing and instead finish this update.

As I keep on browsing, I stumbled upon this photo, not so different from the first one, but attention grabber just the same. The models are not wearing any fashion jewelry but the print and patterns of the apparel they are modeling are really nice.

In this picture as you can notice the bottom is not the real pair or can not even be considered as a nice pair for the printed blazer and patterned blouse, it's just that I cant find something suitable so I just advised you to either wear a denim jeans, perhaps a skinny jeans or a skirt. And don't wear a necklace as a fashion jewelry with this type of clothes, well that's my own style, but if you look closely, the inner shirt is filled with patterns and ruffles so better not wear a chunky or tribal necklace. Just wear an earring of maybe a bracelet, that would be much better. As for the printed jeans, well I cant help it so I decided to also published it.

Another summerish dress that caught my attention. Green, yellow, orange are all combined in a white dress. Summerish, hmm simple, lemon, oranges, green leaves, all those zesty summer fruits that's so refreshing it also makes my eyes refreshed.

Lastly, nice clothes should be paired with the same nice accessories, and this are not just fashion jewelry, shoes are also important same as bags.

Well, did you have fun? I do, aw, what time is it? OMG I still need to finish my report. See you later.

June and Weddings: A Story thru Images

June Wedding

I don’t know the real story behind these photos, but looking at it from the first image up to the last one, this is surely one of the most beautiful events in a couples lives. Consequently, since this is a photo I saw on a social network, there is not enough space to narrate each and every image but any person who’ll see this can definitely create a story on the events that happened during that time.

Through these images, you can see the passion, giddiness, excitement and nervousness, perhaps all the emotions there is. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Actually these are not the original sequence of the photo. I just crop and paste from the original image and create my own flow of events.

My original plan is to add short excerpts on my own words based on the sequenced I created, but then as I clicked the preview button (checking if the images goes out the way I want it to be) I realized words are not needed, the couples emotions are enough for you to understand the events. Each photo shows their passion and love for each other that even someone whose not good at weaving stories can tell, this is a perfect fairy tale.

June: Pearls, Flowers and Weddings

I wonder what is it about June and weddings, anyway that was way back, when I was still a child and whenever the month of June approaches there are so many couples (mostly my relatives, either my aunt, uncle or any of my cousins) getting married, while on some days of the month either we attend one my relatives, sometimes my parents friends, even our neighbors wedding anniversary dinners.

But as I’ve said, that was during my childhood days, slowly as I passed this phrase I notice how great the season is, the trace of winter is gone, the weather is so fine that you can taste summer through the breeze, the fields are gradually getting greener every single day and flowers are starting to be in full bloom. And that was when I realized that weddings are really great during the month of June.

Nevertheless, I won’t pick June when the time comes that I walk down the aisle, (that would be a few more years) maybe May, my birth month or perhaps sometime from the "ber" months. I don’t want to join the June brides, as much as possible I want to be the only bride to get my vows on a certain month if that’s possible, but then again, I notice that churches and other venues are always jam packed for wedding events whatever time and date.

Talking about wedding dates, June I think is the halfway of summer, flowers blooming everywhere, their scents surrounding the whole place, oh by the way, June's birthstone jewelry is pearl, and an old saying somewhere in Asia stated that a bride shouldn’t wear pearls on her wedding day, include it on her wedding dress or any part of her body, for she is bound to cry all throughout her marriage if she do so. But no one said you cant add pearls on your wedding cake.

Kotakoti or Dakota Rose a Real Life Barbie

Real Life Barbie

A few weeks ago, I posted something about the Real Life Barbie’s since during that time Valeria Lukyanova is trending all over the world, so I decided to feature them (Kotakoti and Lukyanova). Nevertheless, what surprises me is that, Valeria Lukyanova is not the most search name, in fact, according to my blogs data, Kota Koti or Dakota Rose is what people are searching for. With this knowledge I got even more curious than the first time I learned about Kotakoti, and the result of my curiosity is here.

Okay then, Dakota Ostrenga as her birth given name or Kotakoti as the Asian’s addressed her or Dakota Rose one of the most sensational online personality is a real life Barbie. As far as the information I gather through reading and browsing all articles available, she came from Japan, but then some articles stated that she is now based in San Francisco, wherever she is, I really don’t mind since she’s been posting her videos on YouTube.

I don’t know why people are so interested in real life dolls, maybe because just like Barbie, they looked so pretty with their porcelain like complexion, big expressive eyes, perfect lips and body, fashion jewelry, designer clothes and shoes, and of course fame.

Anyway going back to the topic, since there is not much information regarding Kotakoti/Dakota Rose lets just all see her photos and you be the judge if what she claims to be “surgery free” and “only make-up” look is true or not.

And that's Dakota Rose, an online sensation, a living doll, a real life barbie. Whatever you call her, my point here is that, its her own life, she wanted something, she did her best to do everything to achieve her goal.

In the future she can say to herself, I did my best. Yes, she might regret the decisions she made today but we are all living at the present time at least she get what she wanted, in the future let her face the consequences of her actions.

Bianca Bree or Bianca Van Varenberg, the aspiring 21 year old actress and Jean-Claude Van Damme’s daughter step out of the red carpet wearing a combination of blue, white and black stripe mini dress with a cut-out side getting the attention of the paparazzo’s not to mention she’s beside the main star of the popular movie “Expendables 2”.

On her Twitter account she stated “As much as I don't enjoy all that flashy crap, I had a lot of fun”, and surely she had fun specially when she saw Charlie Sheen’s comment about the “Anger management”

Anyway Bianca and her brother Kristopher has been taking another path, a little bit different from what their parents took- ex-bodybuilder Gladys Portugues Van Damme’s wife from 1987-1992- as they have been appearing in different television series and movies, sometimes co-starring their father.

2012 MTV Movie Awards
Do you remember last year’s British reality TV series, "Jean-Claude Van Damme: Behind Closed Doors"? At that time Bianca was interviewed by none other than her father, since it’s obvious it’s her father’s show, they talked about the things she experienced and is experiencing being a part of a famous family, being the daughter of a well known celebrity.

And you know what, somehow, I feel like all stars that came from a famous clan, or whose parents are well known always say the same things. "Growing up under the roof with my dad, I never even saw him as something big. I never came to the conclusion that he was famous. I would go to school sometimes and people would say, 'Oh, I saw your dad on TV.'”

“It can be hard having him as my father because a lot of people are phony. They can hurt you if you don't be careful. I shy away from a lot of people because I don't want them to know my life and personal issues. I just have a couple friends who are close and that are it,” said Bianca when asked what it is liked growing up with her dad.

And I was like “Yeah, same here, I didn’t even imagine my dad to be in one of the top positions in an Engineering Firm” until I turned 16.

Well, that’s it. I hope I didn’t get too sarcastic.
