The Queen Mary

Oh look at me, just happily twirling by the Queen Mary! The Queen Mary is retired ship that sailed in the North Atlantic Ocean and is now a tourist attraction at Long Beach. This set of outfit photos are my absolute favorites from our trip. Everything just fell into place! A good shot of the famous ship, a not so crowded area, perfect lighting thanks to a really sunny day and a maxi skirt that cooperated whenever I twirled and created the perfect waves of clothing! The daisy floral print of this skirt is very Marc Jacobs and I love that it's not your usual maxi since it has a black mini skirt as a base, then it's sheer all the way with high slits at the side. Just the right amount of playful!

We spent this day touring around Long Beach. The place was very photogenic!
We visited the Shoreline Village.
Look at all the yachts!
Mexican lunch at Tequila Jacks! 
The Long Beach Harbor Lighthouse!
Adorable pastel colored shops around the village.
After lunch, we then headed to see The Queen Mary!
After touring the place, we had dinner with my Ninang's family. 
It's been lovely meeting everyone!
We then drove up to this view point where you can see all of Long Beach! It was really, really cold that night and I was in a sheer skirt but the view was amazing so I was just really taking it all in! This picture does not do justice!
That's how cold it is! My cousins had to wear their parents' sweater and cardigan. I love these cuties!

Love, Paola

The Day I Met Chuck E Cheese

The day I met Chuck E Cheese, I was sporting my good girl look with my white buttoned down, a midi skirt plus my uniform good girl hairstyle (I do this hairstyle whenever I want to look nice and innocent. Works everytime! Haha). To battle the cold, I then finished the look with my trusty gray cardigan which gave my look an unintentional conservatism and made it very Sunday appropriate (although this was a Monday). It's a very chill outfit, I was even wearing my sunnies till sundown since I didn't bother to fix my face at all. Perfect for the vibes of that afternoon! We were still tired from our Vegas trip so we all just met for dinner and for some arcade fun!

If you don't know Chuck E Cheese, I suggest you watch The Pacifier - its the arcade and restaurant where the baby lost his diaper! Haha. This place took me back to my Timezone days! I was a Timezone baby and I have so much memories of me and my dad playing the different arcade games at Timezone that's why for a 20-year old who's entering Chuck E Cheese for the first time, I was pretty excited. Plus I was with my cousins who have double of my energy and excitement!

 The girls' table.
 The adults' table.
 Making sure that there is equality before we start using our coins. Haha
And there's Chuck E Cheese who actually volunteered himself to be in this photo! Haha, we were taking one as he passed by and then he just ended up posing with us. I love this photo since this was the first photo that we were complete!

Love, Paola
