Roxy Surfer Girls of Summer
I've always wanted to be called a Roxy girl.
The Roxy girl
can
loves to surf.
The Roxy girl is fun, quirky and strong.
The Roxy Girl is cool.
For the Roxy girl, summer is forever.
Roxy has always been a brand that I have aspired for. To me, I who have {previously} never touched a surf board, or braved the waves is not worthy of such association.
.
I can surf now. I am worthy to don surfwear and not just be a wannabe.

I was lucky to be invited last weekend to be a part of
Roxy's Femme Fling at Solenad 2 in Nuvali
. When Ian of M2Comms and I met up at the
ROX store at BGC
, my first question was: "Who chose the bloggers coming to the event?" He answered that the client did --- and my heart did a little jig of glee as I realized I could pass as a Roxy girl since the brand wanted to be associated with
kikay
and vain and shallow blog.
It was a proud moment!
Note: While at the exit of Sta. Rosa going to Nuvali, a group of soccer players were waving at me. I am not entirely sure why. It still puzzles me to this day.
When I arrived at Solenad, the rest of the
Roxy Girls
{
Shen, Phoebe, Trish, Issa, Lissa, Verns, Kryz, Trixie, Lace and Earth
} were already having their lunch at
Sumo Sam
.
After lunch, we were treated to a nail pampering session with
, and so I had my lovely nail art, too:
I forgot the shade of the polish but it's something from Orly and it's amazing on my nails

White wine-ing while having my paint on

I'm glad they had energy drinks available though because someone was very sleepy from being tired the previous night. This one tastes like grape juice, too!
And then it was time for us to take photos of ourselves, our team composed of
Trixie of
,
Kryz Uy of
and
Trish
{whose blog escapes me now, sorry}. Our challenge was to come up with a polaroid that captures
Endless Summer,
with Roxy stuff grabbed in 20 seconds and shot in 30 minutes:
That's me,
Kryz Uy
,
Trish
and
Trixie Reyna
. Special thanks to Trixie's SO, Junjie, for taking our photo using
Polaroid
!
A combination of the girls' enthusiasm, fashion smarts, summer spirit and
's styling {and credits of this photo!} and our laughter rehearsal, we won the challenge!

Of course, that triumph didn't come easy: We were looked at by several curious shoppers probably thinking what the hell girls in bikinis were doing walking around Nuvali, the Nuvali guards stopped us from shooting photos and several films of the
Polaroid
were wasted plus our hair had grass bits in it from lying down in the grass BUT it was worth it! In the end, we were all happy girls with our Roxy stuff:
I love my Roxy pillow
