Summer Lookbook - Bali (Look 3)

Hey guys! Today I am gonna finish off yesterday's post which is the detailed post of my Summer Lookbook. To finish the post I am gonna explain in detail my third and last look for this Summer! Let's get started!

The last look for the summer also features simple basic pieces but the key is once again the color or the pattern. Summer is all about bright colors so I went with a bright color shorts from H&M. It is in a salmon/peachy color that has a really nice and summery feel.

Another thing about summer would be trying to keep it simple and bright! So I decided to go with a white line shirt from Cotton On that is once again really nice and very summer. I personally like basic shirts because it's easier to find the perfect match for it.

I also added a brown belt from Superdry to make this look bolder and more sophisticated. This look is kinda like the semi-formal attire for the summer, you guys can just substitute the sandals with shoes or sneakers that has a similar color tone.

Since my purpose for this look was casual and relaxed I decided to go with my Louis Vuitton sandals once again. It might not have any color connection with the outfit right now, but sadly at that moment I didn't have any colored sandals or footwear with me.

I personally like this look because it's actually really simple and basic but it's also stylish and sophisticated, so this look is one of my favorite look for this summer! This look also showcases a flexibility in the color combination because white shirt can be mixed and match with basically every colored shorts or even patterned shorts.

So that's it for the detailed version of my Men's Summer Lookbook 2014! Hope you guys enjoy my posts and keep liking my blog and youtube channel! Thank you for reading this post and hope you guys have a great day and summer!

Summer Lookbook - Bali (Look 2)

Continuing from my previous post, this post will be the detailed version of my second outfit from my Summer Lookbook 2014. Let's just get started!

My second look for this Summer Lookbok 2014 would be more to a beach outfit or just a day by the pool outfit. This outfit has a really big summer feel due to the bright colors and floral/tropical pattern. Once again I paired this summer look with my Calvin Klein Jeans Aviators.

What I like about this outfit is that the color combination is really nice and the fact that I am barefoot for this outfit gave a free feel and an explanation that to dress up good we don't have to wear something WOW or something big and expensive.  

The key of this look is the color combination, I chose a black t-shirt that has a bright floral pattern and a bright purple swim shorts that matches the t-shirt. Both of my clothing pieces were from Zara. They are from last year's S/S collection I think.

Another thing to look out for an this kind of look is that make sure you don't get the pattern clash with one and another. We all know that Summer is all about bright colors, navy/marine pattern (stripes/anchors), floral and more, but don't use all of the summer patterns at once. I personally like to stick with the basics 'One pattern and one basic.' If the top is patterned make sure the bottom is not patterned to prevent a bad look, that is one my tip to dress up nice and safe.

So! In conclusion my second look is basically telling that ' Dressing up good doesn't always require complicated fashion pieces.' Ofcourse don't forget to keep a good color combination and don't go overboard with patterns! And shades/aviators/sunglasses are always a must for the Summer! Thanks guys for reading my post! Have a great day and have a great summer!

Summer Lookbook - Bali (Look 1)

Hey guys! As promised today's post will be about the detailed version of my Summer Lookbook 2014 and a glimpse of the places that I visited in Bali. Hope you guys find this post interesting and fun, enjoy!

The first look for my Summer Lookbook 2014 is a very casual and chill look. This look is very comfortable and stylish. It is perfect for travelling in the Summer.

What makes this look really comfortable is the black Zara joggers or sweatpants that I'm using. Sweatpants are a Must Haves and it's also considered as a basic piece. I think sweatpants are not ugly looking, they have their own style and fitting which can speak for the look. 

I chose my Boy London Tank to top the look and give a chilly and summer feel. To complete my look I used my Calvin Klein Jeans Aviators and the Forever 21 Men Straw Hat, those two are an essential in this look because both the aviators and straw hat gave a summer feel.

To make the look perfect for summer I chose to wear my Louis Vuitton Sandals that are also the same color as my other clothing pieces. In the first two picture I also used my black Prada Backpack that is convenient and stylish for travelling.

To finish this post, I would like to say that 'Black is always in, even in summer!' Well thanks guys for reading my post hope you guys have a great day and a great summer!

Birthday

Birthday is a special day that a person celebrates the day of their birth (that' why it's called birthday). On the day of someone's birthday that someone usually celebrates it with a party that involves friends and family. Usually the main attraction of a birthday party is a birthday cake, which I personally think is just a normal cake with normal icings and toppings.

Why am I saying this? In fact yesterday was my birthday, July 16. Honestly nothing special happened and sadly this is kinda normal. I never thought of it as a bad thing nor something sad or anything, cause once my dad told me that you don't need to celebrate birthdays because it happens every year.

The thing is we still celebrate New Year, Christmas, Easter and etc. All of them happens once a year and yet it feels weird to not celebrate them because we always celebrate them. Birthdays in my family are just like a normal day we rarely celebrate and if we do celebrate, the celebration is usually really late.

You guys might think its weird to not celebrate a birthday, but I personally think is normal probably because I rarely celebrate them. My definition of a great birthday celebration would be eating something nice with the people you care most. This might sound really boring and basic for some people, but turns out a simple celebration like that can make someone like me (a person who rarely celebrates) the happiest person on earth. From this I learned that the rarer you celebrate a birthday party the happier your birthday party is.

So, in conclusion the happiest thing in life doesn't have to be something grand and amazing. Plus by doing this we can feel more grateful towards people. That is why I am okay with not celebrating my birthday, I am not sad nor mad I am very happy! Hehehe hope you guys have a great day and thanks for reading my post for today! Thank you to all my friends who wished me a happy birthday!
