Mainely Vain: Have a Bite of Flirty Tart

Hello my Darlings. I will give you a fun throwback. This shoot was shot a couple of months ago for a summer themed blog with Sir Baloloy(a teacher in accountancy) and my trusty partner, Ij. Oh and feel free to stalk her blog http://irynjane.blogspot.com/

It was summer of that time when Ij wanted to have a summer themed shoot for the upcoming summer time so I agreed and one of my ideas was flirty tart. Weird name I know but hear me out. Flirty Tart is my idea of a good balance between seductive, fresh and colorful. Let’s be honest guys, a woman looks much sexier in solid dark colors but we can actually draw that out even in colorful pieces. Also to add, I am not a fan of showing too much skin in the summer even when people say that the heat is unbearable. I mean sorry but, that heat is nothing compared to where I grew up and that is in the Middle East. Honey, tires explode because the weather is too hot and I got through the summer even with long sleeves and jeans. Since, Philippines doesn't have regulations on what to wear. Sky’s the limit they say, more like the shorter the better. Going back to what I am saying, I got this idea from a book that says a woman should only show one skin at a time yet from time to time I show two but that is the maximum. It’s actually efficient that way because you simply highlighting your features. It is a big difference with lighting the whole thing. So when you wear shorts, cover the twins, back and if you can, the arms (at least above the elbows).

For starters, this is my make-up. It is just a warm bronze smoky eye with eyeliners and wispy false lashes on the end. Maybe a bit of bronzer to warm up the face or pink blush to match the hot pink lip. They do say that when you have a blush with the same color of your lip, you instantly look polished. Just do not make your cheeks have the same intensity of your lips because that can be brutal. As for the hair. I usually just bun my hair then let it roam. Lazy I know but it works for me.



This is dress perfect for the season because the fabric is light on the skin, the heat does not attract colorful pieces (dark colors does), and you can sweat whatever you want without it tracing on your clothes. Sneaky right. Plus it adds to my principle of showing one skin at a time. It has a slinky strap or my favorite, slutty straps, to show your décolletage, and arms. The back isn’t included because I am covering it will my wild mane. I wore my Yves Saint Laurent Shoes and a hat my ex bought me from Bacolod or somewhere in the Philippines with a floating market. Well that’s what he said. I don’t think I have any photos that focuses on my accessories but they’re just gold pieces and a feather necklace that blended well with my dress.










I guess that is all, I have. I do feel that I was slimmer before. I have mixed feelings now. I hope you Darlings like this, until then.. Ta-ta
