Summer 2010 must have list



Summertime and the living is easy?

Sunscreen is your best friend in these hot summer days
But also catch up with your friends if your schedule over the year was awful. Just awful.
Make a good reads list of all the books you wanted to read over the year
Don’t be upset if you didn’t get your perfect swimsuit figure-that’s just artifice of mind.
No one is perfect, neither you are
If you have opportunity for camping or Robinson Crusoe kind of vacation, go for it; but be equipped like Tim the tool man, and dressed like Jesus.
Buy a daily face moisturizer with UV protection and hair conditioner that hydrates hair (you can use it on the beach if you are not fan of hair-sprays)
Don’t be lazy: get a lemon, squeeze it into glass and make yourself huge lemonade.But I am not sure you need to use it to highlight your hair. I’ve heard the chamomile is much better.
Learn to manoeuvre the boat (we don’t need another Titanic so the row boat will be just fine)
You don’t have to be beach-busy all the time.
All that is expected for you to do is to put on your sunglasses and to pretend your boyfriend/friend/husband is your bodyguard.
Feeling hmmm about moving the summerhouse on the beach when it comes to beach equipment. You are allowed to do this only if you have children. Or if you feel like a child. If you do, that’s fabulous and you don’t have to read this.
Don’t buy swimsuit or the beach bag on the sale only because it’s cheep. These are your essentials; you have to like it, not feel so-so, I don’t know about them.
Don’t pack like you are going to travel the world in 80 days.
Fall in love and don’t calculate.
Deep breathing can make your life much easier.
If it is possible be eco friendly traveler.
Yachts are passé.
If you are going on boat (wanted: sailboat) pack striped tops, white linen dresses, and wavy hair.
If not already, fall in love with divine lavender in summer days: With bunches decorate your place, with bags add romantic aroma to your closet, with spray refresh your bed with before you vanish to dream land.
Summertime is right time to learn that is the best to stop making Prophecy collections before the things happen. Let it be or you will miss the moment.
Also try not to be too photo-I am having a great time–obsessed.
Scenario that seems terrible; stuck in the hot city feeling lonely happened probably to all of us so
Forget self-pity, you are NOW & HERE and you have to be self-entertainer.
First become friend with quiet city and then do whatever you want. When you feel social go play (there are lot of activities out there). When you feel vagabond take long walks, have a loooong coffee with newspapers, explore new places and shops. When you feel lazy, treat yourself with ice cream and movie marathon with your favorite director (Woody Allen is my foster father in that case). When you feel you need sunbath, climb on the nearest roof or rest on the grass in park with coffee.
When you feel rebellious have a bath in public fountain.
Hobo is chic.
Wear hat. Sun is our goddess but knows how to be tricky sometimes.

Of course the living is easy

misslikey at lagoona beach

I’ve read somewhere old interview of Lauren DuPont, famous New York socialite and girl in style where she was asked what three items would she choose if she is stranded on some island. Don’t you despite those kinds of questions?! All of our lives we are tortured with choose word. Please. There's no necessity of answering on that. Lauren did answer like a true fashion diplomat; ˝Forget it. I would find a way to get off the island. That’s one island I don’t want to be on.˝
Since the season of brain torturing where to go what to do is coming somehow I am most thinking of Robinson’s Cruise type of getaway. Not just me, but lot of people lately are on personal with edgy trends that sometimes you really think is that all trashy and ripped clothes result of our states of minds. I mean we look like we are partying all the time. Should we put are minds in state of serenity sometimes? I mean I am socialite type of girl but every now and then it comes out my animalistic instinct of running. That’s probably reason of those weird dreams. And when I am running somewhere first thing I want to know is what place looks like so I can be in harmony with surrounding. That is our fashion animalistic instinct. Google is really a blessing. And you know, getaway on desert island isn’t that bad dream at all. My first allusion on abandoned island is Lagoona Beach. Don’t you worship that movie? Chic of nature where Brooke Shields stands in the sand in tiny little outfit with wind waving her hair. Since I would be on my desert island for couple of days I surely won’t have time to make my clothes like Emmeline and Richard. This year summer collections weren't filled with that earth touch like past years. You do remember a last year raffia sandals from Stella McCartney? Stella McCartney. Oh gosh I mention that name so many times that she is probably dreaming about me while having a nap in Hyde Park. Stella Stella
my deserted island must have list
Don't you adore the outnet of netaporter? Some fab buys can be found there, like this Stella's raffia flat sandals

Summer essential...white dress..use chiffon or cottoned shirt, dress, or long tee to be one minute chic

On the market now

Marc by Marc Jacobs Devore cotton dress on netaporter, cream dress with the ruffles found on polyvore , Alexander Wang long tee dress from lagarconne, crystal on chain neklace is from Bona Drag
Swimmsuit

This year I more into vintage swimmwear than ever. I love this ruffled vintage look like bikini from Anthropologie
and the beauty from Herve Leger for Max Azria is goody. Sure Richard would love to see that on Emmeline
p.s. Please don't fill your little heads with unuseful information, better watch them from the sun. Straw hats can be find on every market or store with the swimmwear so please bring your hat on le vacation especially if you are going on island!
How could I even forget...Where to pack all this kind of goodies? Moi fell in love with this navy striped weekend bag from Accessorize. This bag is icon, whether you use it like weekend or beach bag.

p.i.s.s. Hm Hmm so next time someone ask you what would you take on desert island list your list. Since I don't have enough space for more photos on list includ; avanturistic mood, chic long silk scarf, good book or cute boy.
And once again LOVE you all for reading misslikey
