my prize from working mama

giveaway winnings, pink stuff

I got another surprise from the mail the other day, + look what I got! A cute black pouch with the word “Can’t buy me love” in hot pink, plus this lovely pair of pearl earrings, which I instantly fell in love with. I guess I am really fond of pearls. 🙂

I plan to use the pouch as soon as I can. I love it’s two-compartment design, there is room for the my cards + bills on one part, + for my mobile phone on the other.

I cannot wait to use my new stuffs! I won these prizes from Working Mama’s Year-End Raffle Draw, by the way. Thank you sis Dorry Lyn for these wonderful loots! 🙂

beating the summer heat with chic modest dresses

women fashion, women issues, modest dresses

The scorching summer is on a roll, 34.7 degre Celsius yesterday, in fact, + it is high time we search for clever + creative ways to beat the summer heat! + one great way I can think of is donning those chic modest dresses. They are not called summer dresses, anyway, for nothing! + do you know why they are the favorite women fashion staple around this year? Here, read on:

  • They are the comfiest  to wear around this time of year, just make sure to go for the light fabric or cotton ones, which are most ideal in this weather
  • You can wear them to just about any occasion: a simple dinner with the hubby, a weekend get-away at the beach, a high school or college reunion!
  • There are unlimited designs to choose from + in the spirit of the fun summer vibe, opt for the pastel colored + the floral ones!
  • There is just one perfect design, cut + style for just about anyone, you can either opt for beautiful maxi dresses or choose those simple yet inspiring sundresses + if you’ve got a little girl, you can even go out in matching dresses! 🙂
I am so sold on modest dresses that I am planning to give it another try, now that my little bump has grown into one big + hyper toddler, + have actually ordered one summer dress online. I am just waiting for it to arrive in the mail. It is a yellow dress I plan to wear the next time my small family goes out for a swim. I will post about it as soon as it arrives! 🙂
I am participating in a blogger campaign by Bucks2Blog and was compensated. The views and opinions are my own, however.
