I know Summer is drawing to an end soon but I just thought I'll share with you some of my favourite Summer outfits and specifically the ones I wore in Greece last summer. We spent a good holiday in Santorini and Athens after successfully planning the surprise proposal for my good friend Natalie and her husband-to-be. I love Santorini - it is really a dream come true. You will definitely be expecting some throwback Santorini blogposts coming up because I have a huge amount of backlog that I've not shared with anyone, not even Facebook.
Summer in Santorini is amazing but you definitely have to pile on the SPFs. I heard that apart from Summer, Santorini is like a dead-town because everyone flocks back to Athens. I like wearing loose-fitting clothing that is breezy and it is no coincidence that most of my outfits in Greece were mainly white and flowy. One's gotta stick to the color theme of Santorini right?
This outfit deserves a mention because it was hands down my favourite outfit in Greece. I paired a cropped frilly top with a pair of flowy lacy pants, some white sandals, a black tassle clutch and put a flower in my hair. After one rave party where I got gifted a coral flower clip from a friend, I was hooked. So now whenever I go on a beach holiday or a Summer party/holiday, I like placing a flower in my hair because I just like the look of it and how it draws attention to my hair.
A few days before the trip, I was out shopping and looking for a simple white dress. Who else is guilty of fashion shopping for a trip as well? I'm sure I am not the only one! Little did I realise when I was in Santorini that this dress couldn't fit this Grecian trip any better with all the geometric patterns on it as well. We even spotted someone wearing the exact same dress the day before we flew out. Pair that with a gladiator sandals and you have yourself the perfect modern-day Grecian outfit for sure.
A backpack is a great accessory for traveling because it is roomy and extremely convenient. I would recommend investing one in a neutral color (I have one in black and one in nude) and of good quality and functionality so that it is not easily targetted for pickpockets in foreign land. I like those that have a small zipper at the back of you to easily reach to your essentials like your cards and keys.
Honestly, this photo was taken after I tripped and stubbed my right toe on a rock and dripped blood on ancient rocks. Luckily, some kind lady gave me a plaster and some tissue to stop the bleeding. Always always bring plasters out with you! Especially whilst you are travelling. How I manage to sit still and look pretty is definitely a skill I must say.
What are some of your favourite Summer outfits?
Share them with me and enjoy it whilst it last! Not like it really makes much of a difference here in Singapore currently as the weather has been extremely hot and humid for some reason. Perhaps it is the latest Pokemon Go craze that just hit our shores and the weather is making it more challenging for us as Pokemon trainers.
