Because it's simple darling...

Yes it's almost the middle of the month and I've not been living up to what I promised. Time has been very precious lately so the moments when I actually have some, I just want to spend time with the people I love. With that, midterms, work and New York Fashion happening, I've been in a little bit of a busy pickle.
But anyway, with that being said, I've decided to do a post on the best weekend I have had in a while. The man and I finally had some days off to hang out so yesterday we took a day trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and had a grand old time. It was just nice being in a different city and exploring and what not.

It had been raining so the outfit I wore was pretty casual and functional. I felt super collegiate in this adorable crochet detailed top so I had to toughen it up a little with the jacket.


Sorry about the picture spam, but I'm not really. Smiles.
I had such an amazing couple of days and I can't wait for more. I even went thrifting a little bit today, which I haven't done in so long. I found some cute spring things I'm stoked to show you.
This month started off so great and I have a feeling it's going to get better. Also who's excited at all of the Fashion Week stuffs? I know I am. I plan on having a round up of my faves soon on here.
Love you babes.

If I recover, will you be my comfort...

Hello there!
This week has been pretty uneventful, but I wanted to give you guys an outfit post anyway. On Monday, Veronica and I went on a date to the movies and saw This Is The End which was insane and amazeballs, definitely our kind of movie. We were running a little late so I didn't have time to take pictures when it was still bright outside.
The top I wore was one of the items I got from the vintage store that we stumbled upon in Capitola. I posted it on Instagram a couple days ago. It's this great 70s-y crochet top that reminds me of cotton candy. I love it because it's pretty Unif inspired and anything Unif is awesome.

I'll only stay with you...

Yesterday was my amazing sister's birthday. We celebrated all week and it was pretty bittersweet because I left for school today. I am blogging in a hotel room as we speak.
Last night, Rosee came with me as my date and we went out for drinks with my sis and some of her friends at King's Row Gastropub in Old Town Pasadena. I've gotta say, it's my new favorite night time place. It was pretty hoppin'. I had a great time and she had a great time and I'm glad.
I was really happy I got to celebrate her birthday with her. Since I've been in college we've always celebrated in Santa Cruz every year, but somehow this year it worked out. I love that lady.


I'm going to miss her a lot. xo
See you all again soon, and I'll be in Santa Cruz then! Smiles.

Another taste of heavenly rush...

Inspiration Wednesday! Can you say hell yeah?
Today I'm going to be talking about something incredibly badass and beautiful and that is a recent movie Veronica and I saw which is Snow White and the Huntsman. Especially since I've been obsessed with everything that has to do with this movie from the premiere looks to the wardrobe from the movie to the gorgeous cast. I'll just let you stare at them in peace. I apologize for the photo vomit in advance, I just couldn't decide. Smiles.


So I have a couple things to say about this movie (like I always do). First of all, it was just beautiful to look at. My eyes were permanently ginormous during the entire thing because of how visually stunning everything was. The main cast wasn't hard to look at either. I didn't know who to stare at: Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron or Sam Claflin. By the way, I have a new crush in Sam Claflin, that man is way too pretty for his own good. Everyone did well acting wise, even my girl KStew, who I did not doubt one bit, even though everyone was setting her up for failure. The movie itself was basically Charlize's as Queen Ravenna and that was absolutely fine by me, since she terrified me and looked stunning doing it.
Anyway, so about the movie. I basically loved the hell out of it save for a few things that I was just kind of eh about. I felt that there wasn't enough dialogue, and when there was, it was almost laughable at times, and full of plot holes. The dwarves, who were some of my favorite parts of the film, were played by British actors that were CGI'd onto little person doubles. I still don't know how I feel about that one.
It wasn't full on the romance, which I actually enjoyed, and focused more on the strength of Snow White and her goal to bring down Ravenna. Also, the men focused on admiring her strong will instead of flirting with her which I loved as well. However, the end left me a little hanging with the lack of dialogue, maybe setting it up for a sequel, which I won't understand. But what can you do? I just have to go with it, I guess.
All in all, I loved it and was not disappointed. Snow White is my favorite fairy tale of them all so that's saying something. The different take on the story, and the fact that it was grittier and messier and that Snow White was a badass who wore armor just made me happy. It was great. Smiles.

So yeah. Anyway.
It feels so good to post now that I've gotten some crap school stuff out of the way. This week is my last week of classes and finals start next week, which means I get to go back home. I'm super ecstatic about that.
Finals are going to be poop. Hopefully I can squeeze in one or two posts in between now and Thursday, which is when I move out.
Later my dears.

Also this song is insanely awesome. Check it out.

You stole my life...


It is a very lazy Saturday.
I have nothing to do today but it feels really good. So I guess I'll just update you all on life.

Last night Veronica and I had a little date night downtown. It was well-deserved in my opinion, we've been working so hard. Things are beginning to stress us out, and I felt dinner and a movie was a really good idea. Actually it wasn't dinner and a movie, it was a crap ton of cookies, movie, coffee, and Taco Bell. Smiles. We saw The Grey, and just saying, if you want to cry, maybe laugh, yell, and be scared as balls, go see this movie. Such a great choice on our part. It also reaffirmed my love for wolves, and Liam Neeson.

So this wolf thing. It's kind of unhealthy. Many figurines, shirts, and blankets of wolves surround my world. I've posted about wolves before and I think I'm super obsessed now. I think more wolves are in my future.

Other news.
Today is the Andy man's birthday.




I just wanted to give a birthday shout out to this guy who has been there for me through the roller coaster that is my life. He's been a great help. Some people may not understand us but that's okay. Anyway, happy birthday to him. Smiles.

Anyway.
Super Bowl XLVI is tomorrow. Veronica and I are going to jam. Hope everyone has an awesome Super Bowl Sunday.

Sorry if this post was a little different than you're used to. It kind of reminded me of my old stuff from a couple years ago.
