BLACK, WHITE & A DASH OF BOHO

Saturday, October 1, 2016
 What I was wearing:
Dress: Triaraclothings | Sandals: Syrup Boho purse: Atmosphere

So I figured I should take a quick break from all the Europe posts and share to you an outfit I worn recently - by recent, I mean yesterday. lol I received a package from Triaraclothings a few days back and I just could not wait to show you the rompers they sent. I don't even have words to explain how happy I was with it! The fit? Perfect. The style? Great. AND it's boho, you all know how much of a fan I am with anything bohemian or gypsy. 

SATURDAY IN

Saturday, September 24, 2016
Normally you spot me on Saturdays sitting somewhere enjoying brunch and conversations with Patrick or my friends. Well last Saturday was different - opted to stay in instead.  

A week ago was my Visa interview. I wanted to wait until I got the final result before sharing it to you guys but it seems impossible to do so since I am very excited about this trip! I won't go further into details about it yet but one thing I can say, I will for the first time be experiencing autumn outside Asia.

 Yaay! I hope Visa gets approved!

SUNDAY BRUNCH

Sunday, September 18, 2016
Hat: ZAFUL (my current fave online shop)


 Laptop / Tablet: HP X360

Hat: Zaful (my current fave online shop) | Bracelet: Charriol | Watch: Daniel Wellington | Top & Slip ons: Forever 21 | Boyfriend Jeans: H&M | Laptop / Tablet: HP X360

Despite being Sunday, I rolled out of bed earlier than usual to do research on new places in BGC where Patrick and I can have our Sunday brunch. It has become our tradition to have brunch on weekends-just sit down, enjoy the sunny weather whilst sipping good coffee and savoring great food. Although there are so many good brunch spots in BGC, most of them we have tried already. After 4 years of living in this area and eating out almost everyday, restaurant options can get narrower and narrower by the minute. *sobs*

I posted on my Instagram and asked help with where we could eat today. Somebody suggested Sunnies Cafe and so Patrick and I, without thinking twice, walked straight to the resto. I was also thinking it was just about time for to give it a try. It's been open for quite some time already but never got the chance to go in--blame the line. But hey, it only means it's good! AND IT WAS!
I got the granola yogurt bowl and an Americano while Patrick's were ricotta pancakes & blackberry iced tea. The menu seemed really good and we were convinced to come back and try their savory dishes. Can't wait to get my hands on the tacos!

Anyway, I hope you all had a great breakfast and/or lunch! It's Sunday and we are excused to pig out. lol 
I have good news to share to you guys but will share it when the time is right. For the mean time, another blog post will be published in the next days. Yaay! And off the record, I missed blogging :) But don't worry, I am really working my way back and this time it's going to be constant.

SEMINYAK LAGOON SUITES

Monday, May 23, 2016
Sorting out albums and choosing which ones to upload is probably one of the hardest things about blogging. It was only 'til last week that I was able to organize my Bali photos - 2,721 to be exact. 
"So where do I start?" The question that I have been asking myself for hours already. There's just too much to share about that 3-week vacation, which I have to say was beyond what I had expected. I knew Bali was going to be great but I was completely blown away with everything. From the villas & hotels, to the quaint little places, to the artsy shops & markets and to the amazing (and affordable) food! 


Since I have already been getting questions with where to stay, maybe it's better to start the with hotels instead. Our first nights were spent in Seminyak, then Kuta and then Ubud. We had 5 hotels in total but today's post will be highlighting Seminyak Lagoon Suites, a semi-private hotel that is tucked in the quiet area of Seminyak. 

Christine, a close friend of mine who I traveled to Bali with, just wouldn't stop talking about how great it would be to bring her special someone there! I couldn't agree more. The hotel had this romantic feel which I believe every couple out there would love to experience! Perhaps get a glass or two of wine,  stay in the deck and swim anytime you want to. But don't get me wrong, it's also great for those friends / family who prefer a little break from the hustle of Bali but still be minutes away from the scene. Unlike the other hotels we stayed in that are situated in the middle of busy streets, Seminyak Lagoon Suites was the opposite - it had this exclusive feel inside and outside. 

The bed facing the pool. Imagine waking up to this every single day! Boy was it hard to leave.

our deck which also served not only as a chill spot but also an office area

Balinese coffee, local fruits, fresh juice - the staples in our daily breakfast.

Hard to be always serious infront of the cam! #bloopers


For around 2,400 pesos a night (around $50) we were able to get the lagoon suite room that had direct access to the pool. There was also a kitchen and mini living area, perfect for those who prefer making their own food. Such a steal for everything it included right? Wait! Did I mention breakfast buffet too? Yes. And the fruits were amazing!

We loved it so much here that for a day, Christine & I decided to stay in and forget about our "To-go" list. I wouldn't say it was time wasted in our itinerary 'cause it sure was worth it - an entire afternoon and evening just spent at the pool tanning, reading a book and appreciating everything about this hotel.
(You can find Seminyak Lagoon Suites through their website and Facebook page.)

For the next posts, I will be sharing to you 2 other hotels we stayed at. Also I am currently working on a Bali guide which I can't wait to share to you guys!
