Kryz Uy X I Love Koi

April 18th, 2013 | 28 Comments

A few months ago, I Love Koi swimwear asked me to design a few pieces for their Summer Style Icon line and I’m so happy that I said yes! It’s so hard to look for the perfect bikini because each body type has their own problem area and favored area. My first design has been launched just today, and it’s called Rive Gauche. I made sure to keep the bikini fashionable, flattering and with good coverage at the same time. The bikini top is a corset inspired by the 50s, and I made sure to design it with ruching (adds “volume”) and thin pads (for comfort). It also has an underwire (to keep things lifted) and ample sized cups (for coverage). Plus, knowing me and my love for surprises, I cut the back part into three strings, just for a more modern and sexy feel. There are 6 exciting colors that I mixed and matched for you to choose from. Some are color blocked, some are print on print, and some are classically nautical. Hope you find something that suits your fancy! When I first posted a photo of myself wearing the lavander version on instagram and the response has been more than overwhelming, so I can’t wait to hear what you guys thing about it! Please leave a comment!

Happy Hour Glow

April 17th, 2013 | 30 Comments

One of my favorite things about summer is having all these fun beach destinations to visit, especially when brands have events that make the whole trip even more worth while! Just last week, I flew to the famous Boracay Island for ETC’s Summer Soiree and had sooo much fun, I plan on flying there again next week! This is what I wore when I arrived that morning. A comfy loose top, an equally comfy loose cover up, denims and a nice straw fedora. I love how my top was long at the back, adding the perfect drama to my outfit, and keeping my bum covered while I was at the airport! I also really like how my slippers had pearls, gems and flowers on them- they’re just the right amount of dressy to a casual pair of flipflops!

I was so lucky to be flown in with one of my blogger besties, Lissa! We are alike on so many levels (read: lola mode) and had a blast bonding and exploring the island together! She has amazing rock solid abs, and I know I’m thin, but goodness, I look like a whale beside her! lol But she inspired me to work harder when it comes to fitness and to choose the right kinds of food to eat, so I hope I will be less of a whale (maybe more like a walrus lol) when I see her next week!

We met up with the ETC people early that day and gobbled up some yummy omelettes at Real Coffee (must try!!! Sorry no photo ) and some jello shots (photo above) that pop and burst in your mouth with so much flavor!

With Lissa and I on the trip were the beautiful ladies behind the new show ETC HQ: Julie Sneigowski and Sam Sadhwani. Don’t even get me started on their effortless beauty and style. OMG. Some girls are just perfect. lol

We all attended the ETC Happy Hour Glow at White House that afternoon where they had fun neon paint splattered on everyone! It reminded me so much of the Sinulog festival just last January in Cebu, except we were at the beach! Perfection! Every year I visit Boracay during the summer, and every year, I get a ton of new memories that really make a mark! How could it not? Just look at these photos!

Day 2 of the ETC weekend was even more amazing and memorable! Will share photos and details about it tomorrow, so stay tuned!

Denim Spa

April 16th, 2013 | 17 Comments

Here’s what typically goes on in the minds of an average jane while getting dressed.

“It’s too hot to wear jeans today (or any day!)!!!”

“I have to wear jeans today to hide my thunder thighs!”

“WHY. IS. IT. SO. HOT. IN. THESE. DAMN. JEANS!!!”

“OMG these jeans are stuck to my skin, I can’t peel them off. WHYYY. I’m so fat!!! My legs ate my pants!!!”

Okay, maybe the last one was a bit exaggerated, but you get my point! Jeans are a wardrobe staple because a good pair is supposed to make you feel confident, hot and in control! But, all those things mentioned above can hinder us from wearing our favorite denim pieces. Wouldn’t it be just the perfect thing if the denim Gods created the perfect fitting jeans, in the perfect color, that could perfectly moisturize, firm up and fight cellulite? That would be HEAVEN. Oh wait- that’s right, that’s exactly what I’m wearing right now! I just had to make these denim wonders the focus of todays look because, come on- anti cellulite pants- nothing’s better than that!

I’m wearing these beautiful Wrangler jeans from their Denim Spa line, and I couldn’t be happier. They actually have 3 pairs under the collection: Aloe Vera- which will moisturize your legs as you wear the jeans from the essence of the plant; Olive Extract- which similarly moisturizes with the use of this essential oil; and my favorite, Smooth legs (which is what I’m wearing now)- treated with unique anti-cellulite and moisturizing formula- Skintex , which includes caffeine and retinol that burst under the friction of wear, so every time I take a stride, I get lifted and smoothened out! Come on, admit it, you’re impressed!

Surely, it’s clear why the focus of this whole look is on my jeans. They’re an absolute breakthrough, and one I couldn’t wait to share with you! So for all those girls with the denim dilemma, check out Wrangler‘s Denim Spa line now!
