Palawan Paradise

Jun 30, 2017 · by Kara Tapangan


Swimsuit: ASOS || Earrings: J. Crew || Sandals: Birkenstock ||Sunglasses: Oscar De La Renta

I’ll be honest, it took all of my willpower to put this post together. Not because it’s hard work or because I didn’t want to, but because it’s been an absolute paradise in Palawan! Everything about this part of the Philippines has been a dream. Between the extremely affordable island hopping, fresh tasty coconuts, and delicious dishes crafted by the locals, it’s hard to want to do anything but lay out on the beach.

I bought this perfect, off-the-shoulder neoprene ruffle suit from ASOS (here) a few weeks ago and fell in love with it instantly.  I got so many questions about this suit so I knew I had to share the details! It’s really flattering for all shapes and sizes and great for girls *like me* who don’t feel super comfortable in two pieces! The strategically placed lace and ruffle accent made me feel like a bombshell! It’s currently sold out, but I tagged a few similar and different styles below that I love!

I’ll probably write a travel post about Coron Island to gush about the resort and island details because there are too many to share in this fashion post! For now, I’m going to keep soaking up every ounce of sun I can until clinic starts back up next week! So much love from the other side of the world!
