5 fashion items I need this summer

Hello lovely people!

I'm back with a summer fashion wishlist, I hope this serves you as an inspiration if you're thinking about renewing your wardrobe for summer.
I returned to work after 2 years of maternity leave, and I work in fashion so immediately I was updated on latest trends and must haves for a very fashionable summer!
In my free time, I also browsed through the offer and new arrivals of one of my favourite on-line shopping destinations, Zaful, they have some really cool items that I wanted to share with you.
The prices are very affordable , and the shipping is quite quick! I ordered from this web store many times before, and I was always satisfied.

This season, I really want to have these striped color block high waist wide leg pants!

High waist wide leg pants are very popular this season, so I'd really like to add a pair to my wardrobe.


Next on my list are kimonos! I love this floral print one, it has a tropical vibe and reminds me of summer holidays and chilling at the beach.
Kimonos are another very big trend this season and you don't need to necessarily wear them only for the beach, but they're perfect even for everyday, out & about, coffee with friends etc.

In summertime, we all love a pretty floral dress! It's a perfect clothing item to wear in the summer heat, and it's super easy and quick to style.
I picked this floral slit smocked off shoulder midi dress in pink:

This model is also available in yellow and blue colour!


Cute bikini is a must in every summer wardrobe. Scalloped bikinis are very popular this summer, so I picked this bright red model for my upcoming vacations:

This model is also available in black, yellow and pink: I opted for red because I'm too pale to wear yellow, and red is quite big this summer. 


Last (but not least) is a pair of trendy sunglasses. These leopard pattern match black sunglasses are one of the "hot" items at Zaful, plus the price is super affordable!

Ok guys, these were my Zaful must haves for this summer! Btw, here in Italy it's already super hot weather and it feels like summer indeed! I'll have to hurry up and order all these items :-)
Let me know which one did you like best and how would your summer fashion must haves list look like!

I'll be waiting to read your comments!

Summer Isn't Over Yet! MY SUMMER ESSENTIALS!

Hello girls!

Just during my vacations, I realized which are the things that I can definitely consider to be my summer essentials!

These are the products that I packed in my suitcase without thinking twice about it, and I was automatically reaching for them on a daily basis!

I've filmed short footages feat. my beauty & style essentials, every day from a different location of the island of Rab, where I was staying.

As a result, I have a nice & interesting video to show to you :)

It is already uploaded on my eipysgudps channel, but in case you haven't watched it yet, you can do that now, by hitting the play button on the video bellow:

These here are the products I highly recommend to anyone during the hot summer months!

• A pair of sexy denim shorts is my must- have in terms of clothing, because it is so versatile and you can wear it for the beach, or going out at night (dressing it up, or dressing it down!)

BEAUTY MUST- HAVES:

1.) Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse OR (Multi- Purpose Care Multi Usage Dry Oil)

Golden Shimmer with 6 precious oils and vitamin E.

For face, body, hair.

I'm in love with this product! I use it all over my body and it leaves my skin soft, moisturized, deliciously fragrant and irridescent!

Perfect for the summer nights out!

2.) Bioderma Photoderm MAX spf 50+

Mineral Solar Compact Very High Protection 

Intolerant Skin

When talking about summer, my priority isn't to tan! I'm a very fair skin and I need to be cautious when sunbathing! I avoid the hottest hours of the day and the midday sun.

At the beach,  I always make sure to wear a high spf on my face.

I'm 30, so I need a good quality product such as Bioderma because I want to avoid getting sunburns on my face & developing premature wrinkles & signs of ageing!

3.) Eau Thermale Avène 

Thermal spring water

Soothing, anti- irritating, for sensitive skin.

I have been using this product on & off as a part of my skincare regimen, for years now!

I especially love it in summer because it instantly refreshes my face.

Often I'll use it instead of a toner.

In the periods when I feel I don't need a night cream, after finishing with cleansing my face, I'll just spray a bit of Avène Eau Thermale & go to bed!

4.) O.P.I Avojuice Skin Quenchers

Cran & Berry

Hand & Body lotion

This mini-size hand lotion is perfect for carrying around in my beauty case!

It is important to moisturize your hands daily; this product absorbs really fast into my skin, leaving it soft & smooth, plus it smells deliciously! YUM! ;)

5.) Kérastase Soleil Micro- Voile Protecteur

Fine, dry and light mist

leaves hair feeling natural

For colour- treated hair.

Leave- in

I like to consider this product a spf for my hair!

It protects my hair from harmful UV rays, wind and sea salt!

6.) Too Faced

Leopard Love 

Complexion Perfection kit

This is a great kit because it contains bronzer, blush and a highlighter, all in one place!

The colours are simply GORGEOUS!

For the hot summer nights out, this is all the make up you'll ever need! ;)

I hope you enjoyed my beauty & style essentials and all the beautiful sights from my video!

I was thinking about all you guys while filming it, I wanted to capture & show you all the beauty of my island!

I hope I managed to do that!

Do let me know in the comments section, which products are your summer essentials & why?

Thanx for reading!

Ciao, ciao!
