5 Things to do on a Hot Day

It's the perfect summer day and you are stuck in an empty city not knowing what to do. It's to hot inside the house and you don't want to go outside because it even hotter. Every one of as has been in a situation like that at least once in their lifes -don't try to deny it. Well don't you worry because I have some ideas on how you can tern this day from an nightmare into a paradise.

Hit the beach: You heard me right. Go put your bikini on grab you hat, sunscreen and a tower and head over to the beach. There is not better way to spend a hot summer day. Here in Greece we are very fortunate to have amazing beaches withing arms reach. So go find a spot and enjoy your coctail while having the time of your life.

Hit the pool: If you are not that lucky to have the sea near you, I got you covered. Grap a friend a go find a fancy hoter with a fancy pool to spend your day at. You will have the same ammount of fun not very far from your home.

Have a water gun fight: If for any reason you can do none of the above the go grab your water pistols with some friends and have a water gun fight in your backyard. There is no better way to cool of  trust me.

Go shopping to the mall: There's nothing better than a air-conditioned space that has so much stuff you can see, eat and buy. Mostly buy. I love going to the mall on a hot summer day. All the clothe, the makeup waiting for me to give them attention. So  if you want to avoid the heat and if you're feeling extra spenty here's the place for you.

Find a shady spot and read a book: If you want to avoid the noise of the mall and you want to spend your time more relaxed then go find a spot with plenty of shade in your garden, grab a cold glass of lemonade and sit down and read your favourite book. There's no better way to chill.

Hot Summer Day Essentials

You have to love those hot summer days. Not only because of the weather but also because you have nothing to do- well at least I don't since I am a college student-Hooray! But the only bad thing about it is you stuggle to survive them unless you are in the beach with your gals having the time of your life. But some of us don't have that luxury every single day so here are a few thigns that might come in handy in order to survive a hot summer day in the city.

Water: Yeah I know pretty basic and boring but it's a life saver in that hit. Have you ever had that life or death situation that you desparetely need an bottle of water and you don't have one with you? Well I did and it was pretty bad. So always carry a cold bottle of water with you in order to stay hydrated in the heat.

Sun Protection: Also a pretty boring one but a very important one as well. If you don't want your skin to get burned-been there, done that couldn't sit anywhere for a week-you might want to put some sunscreen on, especially if you are out in the sun all day. I love the Carroten Sensicare Suncare Milk SPF50 for my body and the Carroten Hydra Plus Suncare Face Cream SPF30 for my face. They both smell amazing and I actually got them together in a very good deal for something like 50% off a long time ago.

Sunglasses: I can't leave without my sunnies when I am out  of the house even when it's cloudy outside. I know I am a crazy woman. So of course sunglasses are an essential for me on a hot summer day. I have these Rayban Aviator one but I am looking for a new purchase, the Clubmaster ones. Sunglasses not only protect you from going blind in the sun but also give an extra edge to your outfit. WIN WIN.

Hats: I am a sucker for hats and I have been told that they really suit me but I never wear them because I think they make me look funny. Someone talk some sense to me. Hats are a massive trend lately and they come in all shapes and sizes. I especially love the fedoras and the floppy ones. And not only protect your face from getting burned but the give an nice touch in your outfit of choice which is a great plus for me.

The Wardobe Edit: Summer Edition

If you don't know already I have a big passion about fashion and clothes in general. I don't know what it is about it but it fashinates me.  Especially in the summertime where there are so many amzing shapes and patterns you can pick from. Sometimes it can be a little bit overwhelming. Haven't you all have that moment where you are in a shop and yoou want it all. Well I defenately have and it's blooming scary. So today I though I would share with you my top summer wardrobe picks,

The Denim Shorts: There are so many different shapes and patterns you can choose for your shorts but you can't go wrong with a denim pair of shorts. If they are high-waisted even better -because I love high-waisted stuff- in your bum isn't peaking through, SCORE! I have been searching for a high-waisted pair of shorts that fits my criteria for quite a while and I have been eye this H&M one.

The Maxi Skirt: Ahhh the maxi skirt. What a doll. I love, love, love a good maxi skirt. Either a patterned one or a monochrome one. You can put it on whenever you don't feel like shaving your legs and none will notice. Do not judge me on this one but sometimes it's very boring to shave your legs. I love this Stradivarius one  with a cheeky cut on the side.

The Crop Top: Another favourite of mine. I have a deep love for crop tops. You can pair them with a lot of high waisted stuff and look chic and amazing by showing a little bit of skin in a very elegant way. If you feel extra confident you can expose your tummy area, but be careful on this one. I have been eyeing this Stadivarius one with the cuts on the sides but when I went to purchase it they didn't have my number. What-A-Shame.

The Playsuit:  Feel extra bored to find a top and a bottom piece to put together and make yourself look semi-presentable? Here comes the playsuit or romper. You put it one in a matter of minutes and you are ready to go and you don't have to woory in your top matches with your trousers. Currently I am head over heels for this Stradivarius number in the black, So chic,

The Dress: I love dresses in the summer. They are my favourite thing to wear. Especially the flow-y one, I love the freedom the provide you and how they don't stick on your body like a glue. Also I have a special place in my heart for patterned dresses because of that boho vibe. Love this one with the flowers, So summery.

With summer really stepping foot into our lifes with those amazing sunny hot days, the tans,the cocktails the bonfires on the beach - someone stop me I can go on forever about how much I love summer-  I thought today I would share with you mThis is a great rs that I like to paint my nails with in the summer time. Now let me tell you it was a tough one for me to chose my fave colors because  I have a sweet spot for nail lacquer and I am always under the impression that I don't have enough when in fact I think I have more than I actually need. Enough rumbling lets get to the post.

Elixir 60" Fast Dry in No.160 This is a very beautful pastel blue shade that I absolutely love, because lately I have a thing for blue.Its a very pretty one,very natural not at all in your face kinda blue. It's a great formula- it last on me for about 5 days before it starts cheaping-with the normal aplication brush and also very budger friendly.

Essie in Lapiz of Luxury This is also a very pretty blue a little darker this time than the previous one but not at all a winter blue. Also a very natural looking shade and very long lasting formula. A little bit more on the expensive side for a nail polish if you ask me but so so worth it.

Elixir 60" Fast Dry in No.138 Moving on to another color palette this is a gorgeous looking orange more like a peachy kinda shade. Have to tell you looks great with a tan and it requires only one coat althought I tend to do two just to make the color pop even more.

Essie in Coacha'bella I am pretty sure you can already tell there a theme going on here brand wise what can  I say when I find a formula that I love I stick with it. First of all love the name. For some reason it reminds me of Coachella,no clue why :P. Now this is a pink-ish shade with a purple undertone to it that creates a very pretty deep but fun shade.

Elixir in (sorry the No. is missing)  This is a great hot pink shade, very bright and very summery.Probably one that I really love to wear when I am feeling extra confiden. Looks even better on a tanned skin.

Things to invest in: The Wardrobe Edit

>

Fashion is recycling all the time. From season to season trends are coming and going. But if you can't and don't want to follow all of these on and off trends there are some pieces you can invest so you can still look stylish by miixing the with some of your fave trends without having to waste a tone of money. So here are my top 5 clothing items that you should put your money on:

1. LBD- Little Black Dress: I believe that a black dress like this H&M- Figure-fit one is an essential to every woman's wardrobe that respects herself. This particular dress will save your life, I mean nobody can go wrong with it. You can dress it up, you can  dress it down and still look good with little efford in any occation, formal or not. So if you don't own one I highly suggest you go get one.

2.Black Leather Jacket: Now I still looking for the perfect leather jacket myself, because the one that I already own has had it's last breath a long time ago and I'm having my eyes on this Stradivarius-Biker Jacket. But a leather jacket can give a rock effect to any outfit whether it's an everyday look or a night-out one.You can through in over every outfit you want and it will give an edge to it while it's keeping you warm on those chilly days.

3.White Button Down: If you're asking why do I need a white shirt for? It's boring. I know I've been through this question many times in the past. The real question here is not what you can do with a white shirt, but what a white shirt like this Stradivarius- White shirt can do for you. And the answer is MAGIC. Next time yo have no clue what to wear with your amazing trousers/skirt, throw this on and you'll remember me.

4. Blazer: Well I don't have a particular color preferance for this one, but let me inform you that I love my nutural colored clothes, so can you guess what color I would pick? You got that right. Anything from black to dark blue and beige. A blazer of any color can finish any outfit in a chic way without having to go over the top. Currently I am eyeing this Stradivarius- Blazer with pockets.

5. Them Blue Jeans: What is there to tell about them blue jeans? Everyone has them and everyone want to go buy more of them. So I suggest you go get yourself a nice pair of blue jeans like these Stradivarius- Skinny fit ones.

So there you have it. These are my top 5 Wardrobe essentials. If you are missing any of them I highly recommend you invest in some of them because they are going to help you and your every day style in so many ways, espescially when you are on a low budget.
