Summer Essentials.

Summer is here, and the heat can be unbearable sometimes. While a trip to the beach is nowhere in sight for us right now, it doesnt mean I shouldnt come up with my own list of summer essentials. Actually, I only have two (three, if you add one, but I hate tagging it along) summer essentials that I need - sunblock and sunglasses. Id want to have to add an umbrella but oftentimes, I hate bringing it, or I bring it and lose it within the day. I cant stand those little umbrellas that fit into most bags because Im big and I think it’s a pathetic excuse for trying to cover what will only cover the head. So I removed it from my essential list. I use VMV Armada SPF 60 for sunblock because it is lightweight and hypoallergenic (perfect for my sensitive skin). Now, with sunglasses, I struggle with this a lot.

You see, I don’t have that much of a nose that can hold any kind of sunglasses. Add to that is the fact that my face is round - so shopping for sunglasses can be quite hard for me. I dont really think the trends these days - aviators, and those really big oversized square sunglasses will look good on me.

The only one that looked good me on was my Kenneth Cole shades which broke after three years of wear and tear. It was a gift from a cousin and she called it blind-man shades (it has the style that most blind people use). But hey, it looks good on me! I need to shop for a new one!

It was something similar to this:
