My fellow Cebu Fashion Bloggers and I went to Mövenpick Hotel early to shoot some OOTDs, blogger duties first of course.

I wore this navy shirt with neon pineapple prints all over it because why not? It’s summer! The prints of the shirt also glows under a black light which is really cool. I then matched it a swimming shorts, since we’re in a resort and you’ll never know what will happen next right, it’s nice to be always ready. What I love about this shorts is the tropical print which matches the shirt. It felt like the two really belonged together and I’m really obsessed with matching outfits lately. I then wore a snapback with tropical prints and pair of mandals to complete the look.

Before attending the beach party, we were treated to a sumptuous dinner buffet at The Sails Restaurant. The restaurant offers nightly buffet concept featuring local and international cuisines. During our visit, which is a Saturday, it’s all about Asian cuisines featuring delectable dishes from Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, Korea, Japan and of course, the Philippines. This buffet theme is also available on Sundays.

The Sails Restaurant also has East Meets West on Monday, Seafood on Tuesdays, and Mediterranean on Wednesdays and Thursdays. On Fridays, guests are treated with a Filipino themed buffet at the garden area of the resort. Guests can also enjoy live cultural performances while they dine.

Of course, a dinner at Mövenpick Hotel is not complete without having a Mövenpick Ice Cream. My favorite Caramelita!

After filling our tummies with sumptuous meals, we then went to Ibiza Beach Club for the highlight of the night which is the Electro Beach Festival. More than 1000 party-philes graced the event and we were treated to an epic dance and music experience by renowned DJ, Daiki Wakabayashi. The Electro Beach Festival also featured Japanese Djs including, Tora, OGaMixxX, Shibuchin, Kamiyama Seigo, Toshiki, Red Bully and Hiroro.

It was indeed a fun night. Thank you Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu for having me.

The hot summer days call for a more relaxed, light and comfortable outfit. In the Philippines, dressing for summer is not a problem since we live in a tropical country where it feels like summer almost every day. Our closets are usually filled with items that are already perfect for summer.

Choosing the right clothing with the right fabric is essential to make you feel comfortable during hot sunny days. Good thing, brands like Giordano has come up with their Summer Classics collection which features clothing that are made of light, breathable and comfortable fabrics. The collection also includes pieces that are timeless and easy to wear since you can pair with just about anything.

It was one hot afternoon and I decided to wear this button down with vertical stripes print which I got from Giordano. I really like this button down because the vertical stripes print makes me look taller and slimmer. The fabric is also made of linen which is very light and breathable, perfect for the hot afternoon. I then wore a pique trouser which I cuffed and a pair mandals to make the look more relaxed and comfortable. To finish the look, I chose a white fedora hat to protect my head from the heat of the sun and a scarf to give the look an accent.

It is really important to invest on right clothing for us to survive the heat of the sun during summer. Some additional tips before I end this post, wear sunblock and stay hydrated.
