Geeky Fashionista

I cannot blame the little one for wanting to go for a swim. There are days that the weather is humid; maybe she just wants to be refreshed? She would ask me if she could go but I am not allowed to swim in a pool now that I am pregnant and hubby would get home late from work already. It would also rain in the afternoons. The village pool is not indoors and is not equipped with a raypak heater. I wish the weather will cooperate before weekend so we can ask her uncle to accompany her to the pool.

Lego and Moleskine have this limited edition collaboration:

Minifigs not included

Available in March, there will be four designs to choose from. According to wired.com, each Moleskine notebook “will have a debossed cover with a different Lego screenprint on it and comes with a matching Lego brick and include a colored bookmark ribbon, themed flyleaf and an inner pocket in colored fabric. It comes with Lego themed adhesive labels and will be available in different sizes and in plain or ruled pages.”

I know it is still January but I know a lot of people are already preparing for the summer season here. I am sure resort owners are also busy getting ready for the peak season like doing renovations, fixing pool pumps, revamping rooms, etc. For vanity’s sake though, I found this list of summer must-haves for families to make that get-away even more comfortable:

• tanning lotion or sunblock.
• first-aid medicated spray
• insect repellant spray
• lip balm with spf15 and rosebud salve
• cooling gel
• moisturizer

Floral prints have gone photographic and digital too! Most fabrics now are digitally printed, whether with daisies, roses and other type foliage and they are simply amazing. And this does not only apply to dresses but to shoes, bags and other accessories too! Look at these items I found for inspiration:

RED Valentino Floral A-line Dress

Giuseppe Zanotti Floral Shoe

Prada Black Floral Bag

ASOS Floral Cotton Playsuit

Looking at my Instagram feeds, friends from the US have been posting snow pictures. Winter has definitely arrived on their side of the world. Their boots are out and so are the snow wear. Having lived in a tropical country all my life, I have always dreamed of experiencing snow, building snowmen and making snow angels. And the winter gear?! I would love to have a pink bogner jacket as shown below.

Maybe in the future, we will be able to visit New York during winter.

I love TOMS shoes, they are very comfortable to wear. I got my first pair last year (a red crochet) and it’s one of my favorite shoes to wear. I also love that TOMS donate a new pair to a child in need every time a purchase is made. That’s hitting two birds with one stone, right?

At the start of the year, I got another pair as a gift from mom. I would have gotten this Pink one but there were no sizes available for me anymore. So I got the Teal instead which is equally charming (I just forgot to take a picture!).

I am looking forward to my next pair. After all, it is nice to be doing a good deed when shopping for one’s self

As I have said, I resurrected my Pinterest account just the other day so I can start looking at beautiful stuff once again. It will help get inspired and write about things. I am more drawn on quotes to live by and stuff for the home. I dream that we are always one day closer to owning one and foreseeing what the house will look like is a fun activity, I tell you. I am also partial on wood furniture and these pieces of rustic furniture can make a fine shabby home.

I feel more girl now compared to my first pregnancy. I prefer dresses over pants  But I have a very limited number of dresses in my closet. So I went ahead and browsed for some chic maternity online. Who knows, the husband just might give me some shopping money soon? *wink*

These are the ones I saw which I think I can rock:

The holidays are over, thinking of gift ideas for Christmas is way past. And I am stuck in that holiday mood! I must get back on my regular routine, I tell you. I have been slacking too much but at least I am getting my photo-a-day project done So yay! I also resurrected my Pinterest account and installed the app on my phone. Talk about getting all the inspiration that I need, eh? I expect to blog more often, I really wish I can keep up.

I think this is another product that will make video recording and online sharing so much easier (much like Sony’s Bloggie Live):

Toshiba announced its first wireless camcorder. They are calling it Camileo Air10. This new product can yield 1080p videos and even 16MP still which you can easily upload online or do live-streaming. Directly upload to YouTube, Facebook, UStream, Picasa and Twitvid without having to download to computer first. Air10 will be available in February for $150.
