Close To The Sea

What's your zodiac sign?

For those who don't know, I'm a Pisces. 

I love water. Even more when the weather is melting-hot!

I have no problem with that because I live in Puerto Rico, which is a small island. The beach is less than 5 minutes away from my apartment. Funny thing is that I don't go as often as I should! You may think it's laziness, but it's more about having such a busy life. This past weekend I went to Laguna del Condado, where I watched people do paddle-boarding as I relaxed with the salty smell and the warm breeze.

My outfit was inspired in this kind of environment. I thought a sheer see-trough top and some loose shorts would be the best match for this kind of afternoon. To pair this summer look, I wore peach lips and a baby blue flower crown.

Outfit: Beach Break

Last October I spent a long weekend at my favorite city: New York.  I knew the weather was gonna be chill and I wanted to try the turban headband trend.  Never got one.  Weeks ago I saw several turbans with bright colors and fell in love with them.  I thought they were perfect for the beach.  Days before to my get-away vacation this past weekend, my mom got me a colorful one.  This was the main feature in my beach attire.

A couple of weeks ago I received the new catalog from VS named: "From Brazil, with Love".  It was filled with all the new bikinis for this Spring Break.  I'm showing some of the new ones in my order of preference.

 #1: mint-ish

#2: sunny brightness

#3: rawr!

#4: we love stripes and hearts

#5: ruffles + polka dots = retro

#6: would suit any curve

#7: safari vibes

#8: just pushing it up

Beach Day

 I was perfectly roasted after spending four hours under the sun at the beach yesterday.  It was funny to realize I haven't gone to the beach since April of this year and I live 10 minutes away from Ocean Park Beach.   After 1:30pm I couldn't handle the hit anymore, but I know I picked up the best day to visit the beach cause it was so sunny and hot.  The only bad experience was when a big wave took my Electric sunglasses.. they were my favorite! :(
