BLUES BLUES BLUES..

Since the weather has been doin' its thang and being hot and all, I can't help but put on shorts this whole summer. As you can tell the Filipino side of me has been rubbing off haha I've been getting darker and darker! It also doesn't help that my healing scar on my knee shows just how tanned I've become (I tried editing it out but I ended giving up on it...ahaha meehhh) oh well..here's to summer!

Oh! Speaking of which, I took a risk and kept buying me some floral prints from Furor Moda to celebrate the season. These lace trimmed shorts were one of them! hehe Shows off a more girly side of me, but hey I gotta get out of my comfort zone and buy me some prints prints prints! (My closet is way to monochromed) But, man am I happy I got these! Once I got the package from Hokkfabrica to welcome my new blue top, I just knew I had to pair it with the shorts...yes, yes I am pretty satisfied.

 xo,
Heliely

Strappy Goodness

 
I don't suppose anyone would disagree with me on how amazing strappy heels are? Right? I mean just look at these Windsor Smith goodies that happily bounced up my doorstep last week hehe I'm a happy girl with happy feet at this very moment and don't be surprised if you all find me wearing these precious twins out in most - if not all - of my upcoming posts ahaha Not to mention these lace shorts from 2020ave that I've also worn on a previous post haha I'm doin' repeats..but I'm not complaining!

LOOKBOOK X AE BTS 2013 Campaign

Had the greatest opportunity to collab and participate with American Eagle in their "Rock Your Walk" Campaign this week. So, what do you guys think? Loving the denim on denim?
I've always loved their denim collection. Sooo, as you can see, I stuck to their casual denim laid-back look as well as stacking on some colorful bracelets that ties into their recent looks on their site. (If you haven't already you guys should seriously check out their new arrivals to add some amazing jeans to your collection!) If you're wondering why heels with the so-called casual look? Well that's just to add my personality in the mix - baggy jeans and heels are my go-to when I get the chance to step out from my humble abode and smell the fresh air, so yeah you know the deal haha

I'll be posting up a video by tonight or tomorrow to participate in the "Rock Your Walk Video"! & You all can join in on the fun as well!! All you guys have to do is make a 15 second video and submit it HERE! Once you submit a video you'll get $10 off your next $40 purchase from AE so go go goooo!

There's so much to life, so much to learn, so much to give, take, sacrifice..so much so that we sometimes lose ourselves in the process..and sometimes in the end we find ourselves so confused or lost or just simply existing  So I guess it's a reminder to myself that don't forget to stop, slow down and just enjoy the good stuff. Don't worry so much. Don't stress every minute. Be thankful. Breathe. Praise God for everything & everyone. & Live. Because life goes by very fast, and one day you'll look back on things and you don't want to find yourself regretting things, regretting decisions you took or didn't take. Life goes by fast, we've got just one life...so live it to the very fullest. With Love. Give love, because that's what we're made to do. Love others, just as God has loves us first.

Blacks, Greys, & Whites


Took another casual twist, and decided to stay on the monochrome colors with this Biker Chic jacket from Hokkfabrica (link is at the end of post). I've been so exhausted from work lately, I come home with my legs
up and just falling asleep to some instrumentals after a good tasty meal of...fast food...oh my stomach haha Planning my next marathon at the end of this year!

 

So, random of all random..but I have been missing my boyfriend at this very moment. Every day in fact haha Kinda freaks me out that I can love and miss someone so much as I do with him...no matter how upset or angry we both get at each other, I can't help but love him, I can't help but smile, I can't help but laugh at his silliness. I suppose i'm just crazy in a way, or maybe even a masochist because we've endured the pain we've caused one another...but then again that's a pretty normal relationship. & to be honest I'm frightened at the thought of loving someone this much, scared because my hearts at such a vulnerable position. But, hey God put him there so whatever God's plans are, I'll give it up to Him. Either way, Josiakim is a blessing. & That's that.

1991 Child



So I have been going on a white tee rampage lately, only because it's simply a necessity and a major essential piece in anyone's closet - both males & females. What's more perfect than finding the perfect simple basic tee that fits you; like it just has to hug you just right, slouch this much, dip just enough not too much or  too little, but just right to accentuate your collarbone and neckline. ahh do you guys get what I mean or am I just making it too complicated? ahaha Oh! and one more thing, if you guys haven't already you guys should totally check out H&M's sales, seriously I got these pants for only $7!! Can you believe that? haha Not to mention this really awesome white 1991 logo tee for all those 1991 kids out there, go represent ahaha plus it was a good price from Asos.com as well for $10.
So go go go! Before all the goo stuff runs out!
The jacket was a hand-me-down from my stylish grandma hehe I love her hand-me-downs they're the best vintage kind there is especially when they're free too!
My whole outfit combined would amount to less that $100 dollars (about $60) and that also includes the shoes!
Well this is goodnight for now, I'll talk to you all soon!
With love,
Heliely

Brights in Summer Weather

Had theee amazing opportunity in working with Furor Moda (site here) this time, so expect 2 more extra posts featuring them later in the blog.
So, yes I did try something new this time and added this somewhat of a unique color to my closet. My friend Mily and sister called it my "booger-colored blazer" but hey I'm loving the color...although I do admit it may resemble just that..ahaha
Anyways, although it is still extremely warm here in sunny Temecula, I woke up early and did a quick shoot with my sister - which was rather successful if I may say so myself! And decided that hey it wont do us any harm if we played around with color, prints, & textures this time around.
So what do you guys think? Did I do well in styling this top?

 Don't be scared to be daring!
