Charmed

Flowers are starting to blossom more than ever in most parts of the world so I thought I’d join in and wear my prettiest floral dress ever. I’ve never seen anything like it. It’s as if the the flowers on my dress are real, like they were pressed, preserved then attached onto my dress. If you’re wondering where I got this exquisite dress from, it’s from young Danish Prêt-à-Porter brand YDE Copenhagen. I first came to know of the brand a few months ago and I’ve admired it ever since. YDE Copenhagen’s aesthetic is very feminine, sophisticated and romantic–much like my own style. I especially love its Spring/Summer 2014 collection which you can find on their website. Trust me, you’ll fall in love with the collection too! You can also watch YDE Copenhagen’s latest A/W 2014 collection shown last Paris Fashion Week here.

Back to my outfit. As I was saying, because I’m wearing the most beautiful floral dress with the liveliest print and colors on it, I thought I’d keep my accessories simple. Nothing big and bulky, just dainty accessories to match my dainty dress. My favorite here is the necklace I’m wearing. If you scroll down, you’ll see that it’s actually a locket filled with meaningful charms I picked out. It’s called a time capsule necklace, produced by local accessory brand August 8. I had so much fun choosing which charms to put in my locket–a diamond letter “C” charm, my birth stone, the Eiffel Tower, a diamond infinity charm, the word “love”, a star and a few more stones to add a bit of color. These represent the things I love, hope for and believe in. Maybe in a few years, these will change so I’ll be updating my time capsule necklace wit new charms by then. How about you? What would you put in your time capsule now? And what would you put in it in 5 years?

    One group beautiful pictures and pretty image of a girl show in my eyes, your dress is very exquisitely made and clothing is very coordinated and harmonious use of color, giving an elegant, fresh feeling.

    I’d name you Summer Style Herald in this outfit, Miss Camille! This levels up the basic looks of floral prints. I admire the size of the petal details and the mixture of different blossoms for texture. That sunshine yellow on your dress skirt and shoes is also a happiness boost to any onlooker. If I saw you walking past me, you would definitely be one of the reasons why my day is so much more summer-ready!

    I like the bright clutch bag you’re toting as well. It’s great for both casual and sophisticated events. It’s as much a statement piece as your dress. <3

    Your questions on time capsule charms really made me think as well. Finally, I narrowed down my choices to: a book charm, a pencil charm. a quill charm, a silver star, an arrow, and a sapphire. In five years? I'll add a Greek laurel leaf, or a Pegasus. :-D

      Your choice of charms are beautiful! I can already tell what they represent! :)

    All the colors in here are so vibrant, happy, just wanna make you feel like you’re in paradise. I owe my improved fashion sense to you ms Cams, without you cgro I was like the others who are just generics, but you inspired me sooooo much, and being 30 just didn’t stopped me to be fashionable. On your birthday and blog anniv I wanna wish you more opportunities to showcase your style whether in here or abroad, you made me so proud when I saw you’re doing tv guestings on etc as well as your Olay ad. Your magazine covers, your newspaper section, omg you’ve gone a long2 way and always right to the top! God bless you more and love life also, hehehe.

    The print on your dress really is amazing! It’s like the flowers are coming to life! And I like the overall color palette you chose with the dominating pinks and yellow. Very “sweet” but still sophisticated as always! You really do remind me of Olivia Palermo. And to me that’s the biggest compliment I can give to a person haha <3

    Yellow and bright pink. I never thought those two were such a great combination! I’m more of the pastel kind of girl but I like these two together. Spring… One thing I love about our country is that many of our native flowers blossom all year round. ^_^ I loved the way you describe the dress Cams being realistic and all that. It is indeed a pretty piece and your necklace is awesome too!

    Ang ganda naman ng locket mo, you can decide what you want to put. So unique! There’s something special in the fabric of the dress that I can’t determine. Aside from the dress being beautiful, it also got some peek-a-boo in the back ;)
