 Capones Island, Zambales








 Anawangin, Zambales




I'm a true blue beach bum, I'm truly guilty. I together with my Forever 21 workmates went for a roadtrip and beach trip on our rest day. Visited the island of Capones and Anawangin in Zambales. Feels great to juggle work and play at the same time! :)

Good Dress Up Good Morning, Sunshine!. ELENABLOG



Knit Cover Up, Tank top, Shorts, Boots, Earrings, FOREVER 21 | Watch, CASIO 

Even though the weather's so humid, I don't mind. It's the season to wear my shorts, skirts, sleeveless clothes, short dresses and swimsuits! You gotta love Mr. Sun cause he'll be gone in a few months. Actually it started raining already haha! On lazy days, I always opt to wear high-waisted shorts (to make my legs look longer 'cause I'm just 5"2 hihi), a tank top and a cover up! This look is very versatile! Perfect for a hot and cold weather. All of us have our looks for casual or lazy dress up days, so that's mine. Now, I wanna know yours! Tweet or comment below your lazy dress up outfits!:)

Don't forget to join my BLOGGERS UNITED blog giveaway!

Good Dress Up Plaid is Rad. ELENABLOG



Dress, STYLESTUNNERMANILA | Heels and Earrings, FOREVER 21 | Timepiece, CASIO

Graduation month is over! We can finally say "Hello Summer!". You know what summer means? Beach, roadtrips, vacations, music festivals and many more! For me, summer also means wearing my favorite summer-y prints! Florals, Nautical Stripes, Aztec and Plaid! This plaid drop waist dress is very comfortable, casual and chic! Perfect for your everyday activities such as random days in the mall, going out for a picnic, or just simply sipping cold drinks at the nearest coffee, tea, juice shop! The drop waist style of this dress made it look extraordinary. I opted to wear this pair of sexy heels to give a more sophisticated look. 

It's already summer! I wanna see some of your summer looks!:)

Good Dress Up Solo Summer x Online Model Contest Winners. ELENABLOG



Summer is slowly kicking in!  Are you ready? No fuss! Solo's Summer Collection 2014 is up to complete your summer essentials and set your summer vibes high! Solo's Summer Collection 2014 is composed of wide-range swim wear pieces that cater to different types of young. Boasting variety of looks for Him and Her such as tribal prints, floral patterns, retro feels, and solid colors strategically placed on bandeau, bikini tops and high-waisted bottoms creating fun statement, the Summer Collection 2014 is sure to tick off your checklist complete with flattering cover ups and stylish eyewear for ladies and gents to complement the hot season!
The hot collection features this year�s Solo Online Model Contest Grand Winners, Renee Soraya Hassani and John Edward Custodio who stood out among almost a hundred hopeful ladies and gents! The pair got to do a photo shoot directed and photographed by hot fashion photog Doc Marlon.


Renee, 22 recently finished Interior Design at Philippine School of Interior Design, now part of their family business and still wants to pursue modeling, an unlikely path for her, while John Edward, 21 is set to fulfill his dreams of being an actor by venturing to a strong stepping stone which is modeling. When asked about the experience, both quipped that they learned a lot from Doc Marlon and were very inspired to improve their craft and be the face of Solo to the youth. �I want to contribute among the wide varieties of beauty our world has come to define today,� Renee said.




No matter how challenging the path to their dreams is, these two still showed genuine interest and willingness to learn from the best and leave a mark to today�s generation along with the brand that fits their street-smart and quirky personality; these two are epitomes of a Solo lady and gent ready to take over the summer sun, sand and the world.
Make sure to brush those summer jitters away and conquer the hot season in tribal or floral prints fromthis year�s one-stop summer shop!Too busy? Shop online, it�s easy and reliable!
