August has come, so did the tourists from all over the universe, Mars included apparently. Area 51 over heated sauna has officially opened!
If you are part of the fortunate female population that is currently on vacation, (I’m judging, hating and cursing on you) or making fantastic, extra fun plans with your girl gang/boo (god damn you!) here’s what you should be packing for all the instagrammable places (that I won’t be at!)
Vacaychella
August means festival season, my favorite! It’s like a runway show or a Sports Illustrated photoshoot, filled with ridiculously gorgeous women with legs longer than your entire body. Yay! Fun!
Heads up, heads high my dears, we can mingle with all the beautiful looking, Zeus creations, Greek goddesses, without feeling like Shrek! This dress will help you out. Wave your hair, put some glitter on your eye lids and there you have it! Sara Sampaio has nothing on you my little Aphrodite!
Toto we're not in Kansas anymore
Going to the countryside with your bae, for that romantic escapade far from the city noises, overly attached parents and dramatic single friends (oh wait, that’s me!)? We got you boo! Here is what you should dress to pick fresh peaches and sip some red wine. If the temperature goes up, wear nothing underneath, bae will deeply appreciate it!
The Hangover - Office Edition
You know how it goes, same old story, everyone drinks a few glasses over the limit, pass all the reasonable boundaries between coworkers and social human beings, one more shot and everybody is spilling the beans, you get to know all the dark secrets, as well as a powerpoint presentation with pet pictures and the kids having their first shower… it goes on… for hours…excruciating!
Well, just be prepared for all the TMI with this cute assembly. You never know who you will get a tipsy advantage of.
Mamma Mia!
Mykonos trip with the girl gang for a bachelorette party, it’s August everyone is getting married. You already have your designated spot at the singles table, right next to a 3rd degree 45-years-old uncle who still lives with his mother. Fear nothing my darling, there’s still hope, enjoy the ride, spread some magic close to the crystal clear water.
Imagine telling this story to your in-laws "I was walking by the shore, with my A-line dress, saw him sitting in the sand holding a glass of wine reading 'Kafka by the Shore', it was love!"
The Fair Affair
Sometimes is complicated and uncomfortable to wear a dress, that naughty wind can be quite tricky! We’ve all been there, it’s never amusing an unexpected and unfortunate Marylin Monroe moment, or a sad, clumsy version of it.
There’s no need to be basic and avoid those disasters by picking a pair of jeans for an adventurous day, not all dresses need to be worn in a calmer social context. This one is perfect for a Sunday Fair, roller coaster included with no flashing panties. Don’t forget the popcorns, churros, cotton candy and all the calories. We use white label shampoo but we’re still worth it!
Maria de Fátima Silva was born in May 1991 meaning she's a bipolar Gemini. Usually pretty balanced except in the company of dogs. She actually managed to finish her degree in Fashion Design for her parents surprise, and was also an emigrant for a year in the lands of Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth, where she studied Fashion Styling. She came back, she missed the food, the sun and her metal health. Fátima doesn’t take anything too serious not even herself, except for fashion, vintage, dogs and binge eating!
