Having brought up in a tropical country, the Philippines, I am always an advocate of resort wear dressing. Light dresses, short daisy dukes and breezy singlets always come in handy when the sun shines at its strongest. Living in the tropics allows us women to flaunt our healthy tanned skin in the skimpiest (and classiest) of outfits ever invented - and accessories (or excessories, as Rachel Zoe calls it) are the best armour we can ever have. I consider myself a lucky girl when Pinwheel Jewels provided me with various pieces from the current collection of designer jewellery for me to use for my Bali trip.
I always tend to be a minimalist in my choices of outfits so I always make it a point to have bold and beautiful accessories to make my whole look interesting. See, even in my choices of swimwear I go for simple design just like this bandeau bikini from Philippine brand Wanderlust. I like that the colour highlights my skin and make it appear healthy and lustrous.
When dressing for beach holidays, always make it a point to bring breezy clothes that you can mix and match, plus accessories too that you can play around with to make your look interesting.
I am wearing Soho large twisted bangle in turquoise and wood by Parisian designer Luc Kieffer. He designs for prestigious French high fashion houses as well. This is one of my favourites from the pieces I brought in my trip; it makes the whole look appear elegant with its interesting colours and the design itself. I like that it's huge, thus making my minimalist look appear bold and beautiful.
Since I am a bit skinny, I can wear regular cuffs as arm cuffs just like this intricately-made fan lace shell cuff in gold by designer Inbar Shahak. She is a textile designer by profession and you can see it from her designs that everything looks like delicate lace, perfect for those who are more drawn toward feminine designs. This lace shell cuff looks perfect against Asian skin and can be paired with your skinny-jeans-and-tank-top look or your red-carpet-long-dress outfit. Either way, you'll look sophisticated and feminine.
I have this thing about cuffs; I've loved wearing them since I was in college. I am more drawn towards big bold cuffs and bangles than intricate thin bracelets. These eco-friendly and on-trend cuffs by Joyo are perfect for when you want to add a wooden element in your look. It can be paired with your high-waisted shorts and camis or your office-friendly slim pencil skirts and silk tops. Make like a trend-setter and wear one on both wrists or go for the bolder option of wearing two cuffs on one arm - these are perfect options to make your look become unusual and interesting.
I am obsessed about bold earrings so when I saw this pair of laser-cut, 3D-printed, intricately-made earrings in electric blue by husband-and-wife team Monocircus, I am in total awe! Bold earrings are the perfect way to go when you're not comfortable in wearing chunky cuffs or necklaces but still want something interesting in your look. This is one of my favourites as well since the design is totally different, plus they're super light (they won't make my ears go painful and dead after an hour of wearing them).
