Today is my Daddy's birthday and my family and I are going out for an amazing meal at one of my favorite restaurants (his too) called Flemmings. They have the most amazing food and it's so delicious! What I love about birthdays is that I am able to get all dressed up and hopefully go to a fun and nice restaurant! August and September are our family's birthday months. Later in the month my brother is turning 21 and then in September my boyfriend and I both have birthdays as well. They are...
I have to be honest when I say that I don't entirely miss my school days. I miss being social, dressing up for classes, and having a lot more time to have fun, but I don't miss writing super long papers, studying for tests, and getting together with study groups. This year some of my girlfriends have decided to go back for their Master's degree and my boyfriend is even tackling another degree (to add to his other three I might add,) and I know they love school. Well, they might not love it...
I know it's hard to think about fall approaching when it's still mostly hot and sunny in most places in the U.S. right now. In Utah it's been in the 90s, New York has been breaking 100 at times, and don't even get me started with the temps in Arizona. In my mind summer is still here and will be here for a while, but the truth is that fall time will be here before we know it. I happen to love autumn weather. Plus, it's my birthday month in September and even though I'm not thrilled about...
I'm back from Vegas and I survived the sizzling heat by mainly going out at night and enjoying the air conditioned hotel room during the day, except for sneaking out to go shopping that is! ;) The lights were glamorous, and the shows were full of heart stopping entertainment. My goal while in Vegas was to wear comfy and fashionable outfits that I not only felt cute in, but wouldn't be super hot in. While I was in California I picked up a few loose fitting tee shirts, a look I've been...
So guess what I did prior to visiting California? It has to do with a trend I keep on talking about over and over again. ;) Have you figured it out yet? Well, you probabaly guessed it. I bought into the feather trend. I'm going to give you my honest opinion on this feather trend and why I like it and the very few reasons why I don't like it. But before I give you the pros and cons, here are a few pictures for you to see what they look like in my hair. If you want to catch up on my...
Embellishments are becoming quite the trend these days. You'll find lace, jewels, rhinestones, pieces of jewelry, bows, and many other types of embellishments on belts, tops, and hats. I personally love the jewels and fun designs on hats the most. I never got into this hat fashion statement until I received a hat for Christmas last year, but once I received the hat below I loved it! A heart with wings is one of my favorite symbols and the pink and blue colors on this whimsical cap make...
You might have thought that you would only see crochet items in craft fairs and on doilies. Quite the contrary, the crochet style and trend is taking the fashion world by surprise. With its variety of looks, colors, and styles, I even have found myself giving into this crochet look! Getting rid of its homespun image, the crocheted style is now very chic. In fact, you can find it on a variety of different outfits, including maxi dresses, tunics, and shirts. For me personally, I like just a...
You might have seen actor Eric Bana in such dramatic action films as Black Hawk Down and Troy, or in more romantic films like The Time Traveler’s Wife and Lucky. The Time Traveler’s Wife is one of my personal favorites because it is a love story that transcends space and time. Bana does a great job at portraying a husband and son who is stuck traveling through time but still manages to make use of his precious time with his loved ones.
Eric Bana was born in Australia...
So I'm back with a part two segment of the hot feather trend that has taken our fashion world by storm. You can read my take on the feather trend in part one of this post. At first I was a bit skeptical, but now, I admit I am thinking of putting some hair extensions in my hair for my upcoming trip to Southern CA! They're cute, stylish, and fit in for the summer perfectly. Besides, I need to decide to go with the trend before it's actually out of style, right? I'm hoping this trend...
Hello! I hope you all are enjoying your week. I know I am! The sun is out and summer is finally here. This means I get to wear skirts, tank tops, and my flip flops without being super cold unless mean storm clouds threaten my happy weather. A few days ago I went out to dinner for sushi (nom nom as Andrew would say) and I had the opportunity to wear my new stretchy skirt from Wet Seal. It is very comfortable, floral, and still tight enough to add a little bit more edge than normal in my day to...
@Andrew - I want to see that!!! :) (June 9 at 12:47pm)
