Temples in Thailand



TRAVEL  .  TRAVEL  .  TRAVEL


After more than 3 years I finally had a chance to meet my sister!
Her husband is so sweet and generous that his vacation gift to her was a trip to Thailand and for her to see us!
People from Thailand are very sweet and friendly.
Even though most of them do not know how to speak English fluently, they will always try their best to communicate and help you.
Our more then 2 week stay was not even enough.
The food, the fashion and the people will make you fall in love with Bangkok.
Aside from seeing the city, we also visited historical places like the temples or wats.

Wat Traimit houses the largest solid gold statue in the world.
It is located in Samphanthawong district (Chinatown), Bangkok, Thailand.
The Golden Buddha is 3 m tall and is estimated to be worth $250 million dollars.

Dirty Pop



FASHION

Walking around the streets of Bangkok, it is best that you do not go for layers or else you will end up with a lot of sweatmarks on your shirt.
Wear something light, comfy but stylish.
I really hate sweating!

I love going on monochromatic but that day I wanted something a bit different.
So I put on my detachable collar and wore my orange socks to create pop of colors.
I'm good to go!

Sweet Dreams


FASHION  .  FASHION  .  FASHION


So it's been a month the last time I updated my blog.
Time flies so fast.
A lot of things happened that prevented me to update my blog.
Now, I guess I am back on track.

I went on a vacation with my brother and met up with sister in Thailand.
Thailand is a tropical country so during my stay there I brought light clothes with me.
So for the next few posts, I'll be wearing similar outfits.
I wanted to go bright and sweet that day.
I decided to match my clothes and accessories with my candy colored Nikes.
