As we dance through the dark...

Gah, March is going by so quickly! Finals are next week which explains why I haven't been on here.
But I do have another quick outfit post for ya since I'm still trying very hard to update you guys on my life and what I'm wearing and what not.
I wanted to post this outfit in particular because I wanted to show you my new favorites at the moment, which are my Vagabond Dioon boots! I'm so stoked on them. I also thought they matched the dress really well. (Fun fact: the man got me this Evil Twin dress for Valentine's Day, yeah he knows me. Smiles.) I don't usually dress up every day. Lately it's been some sort of black pants with a tee or sweater and sneakers. So this was nice to document.

Also I just finished a research paper for one of my favorite classes I've ever taken here, my monsters class. Yes you heard right. Monsters. Today was the last day and I was pretty bummed to leave. I've recently realized that an onslaught of "lasts" are coming up soon in my time here at UC Santa Cruz and I'm really excited and sad about it all at the same time.

Anyway, just wanted to stop by. I may sneak another post or two in on here before the man and I depart for LA. xo

Just hold on we're going home...

I know I know! It's been like a week since I've posted which is really bad.

I mean I was home so I was rarely near a computer, I was going out every night and spending time with people. I got back to Santa Cruz on Sunday and then worked for the next couple of days and then hung out with more amazeballs people that I missed. I was in my own little world with them. To be honest, I'm really happy, which is new for me if you didn't know. You guys who have been reading for a while know that when post something personal on this it's a big deal, and it's usually about problems in my life. But this time it's not so be happy that I'm happy.

Anyway enough with the excuses. I have also missed you amazeballs peeps so I thought I would have a little chat with you before my first class as a senior which is really scary to think about but I kinda stoked on it.

My sissy bear turned 28 this past Saturday and I already miss that lady. I spent the whole day with her and our bam fam and also Veronica since we were lucky enough to still have her in town. And I also spent the night at her house which was super fun. We were in one of my favorite places ever, Pasadena, and we just had a grand old time. Smiles.

I'll update you more on the past week or so when I get more time. Wish me luck on my first day!

Also you will get the rest of the Fashion Week stuffs soon too.

The one that I love under the sun...

Well I had a great weekend!

So I finished with school and finals last Thursday but I didn't get a break until yesterday since I had to move into my new apartment and then go to work, and then my parents and my sister came to visit the whole weekend  for Father's Day. We basically had a ball. They left yesterday and I was a sad puppy. It was so great being with them, I had the best weekend, to be quite honest.

I love the dress I wore for lunch on Father's Day. I got it from my favorite thrift store a couple months ago and I totally forgot about it until I moved and found all these clothes I never wear. It was pretty exciting. 

I'm not going to get to see my family for a while so that bummed me out but it's all good. Keeping busy will make the time go by faster. I actually don't know when I will be seeing them next, so it might be sooner than I think. Hopefully.

It's in the stars...

So June means I'm super close to summer time however, the weather decided to get into it's gloom phase lately which is dumb. But anyway, to get into the summer mood, I wanted to talk to you about one of my favorite things to wear this season and that is overalls.

Overalls kinda got super trendy this year which I'm all for because I totally forgot about them. We've all worn overalls before because they're just great so I'm glad they're back. Now I want every kind of pair I can get my hands on. I remember my favorite ones that I would wear in high school were this black high-waist not really denim pair that used to be my mom's. There's a photo of the two of us at Disneyland when I was about two and she's wearing them. It's one of my favorite outfits of hers. I just found the overalls the weekend I went home so I can't wait to do an outfit post on them.

Here's some overalls inspiration to get you through the day. Smiles.

By the way it is also finals week for me so the next time I post might not be for a while. I might even be moved into my new apartment by then! So anyway, hope you have a great week. Wish me luck on finals! xo

Let 'em wonder...

Okay so April was definitely not a good month of blogging for me.

There was just a lot of school stuff and working a lot and trying to find places to live in June and just gah. It sounds like excuses but I'm physically exhausted. I'm so jealous of the peeps who have finals coming up because at least they will be done with this school year. I'm barely on midterms right now. But enough complaining. I decided to just do a quick post before I get back to work on thesis writing. 

If ya'll don't know a certain blogger Lua Perez from Le Happy then you are missing out. I've mentioned her a few times on here and posted some of her outfits as inspiration because this girl can do no wrong in my opinion and to prove that, I'm going to show you the amazeballs-ness that is her new line for Romwe.

Today she finally debuted her Le Happy x Romwe collaboration and it's great. The pieces she designed were everything that I could imagine her wearing/designing. So many good neutral and versatile pieces that anyone can wear. I can't wait to snag me some. She's just absolutely great, go see for yourself. Here are some of my favorites.

Light em up...

I'm finally back lovelies!

I apologize for the massive break I took from blogging. How long has it been, almost a month now? Sheesh. I didn't even know it was happening until I woke up one day and thought I'm totally missing something in my life right now and that was blogging and rambling to you guys. Smiles.

I owe you all some sort of explanation, but it all basically comes down to school. This quarter has blessed me with no exams but it's papers galore which is really stressful. I can't wait to go home this weekend, even though it's only to get my wisdom teeth taken out. But nothing can ruin this weekend, not even wisdom teeth, because Topshop LA is opening this Thursday and I'm super stoked.

So those were some updates for you. Now for the actual post, it's an outfit finally!

I bought this coat a couple weeks ago from Urban Outfitters and it's all I've been wearing, especially at night when it gets really cold here. You may have seen an outfit of the day picture with me wearing it on Instagram. Anyway, I'm in love with it. I love how I can wear it with basically anything and the Zara-esque feel it has. I'm just glad it hasn't been raining a ton here like it usually does during the winter. It's just been nice and sunny and cold.

I picked this spot to take photos since the very nice man behind me told me I'm beautiful. He told everyone else too. Smiles all around.

You do it well...

It's 12/12/12 guys! And I am officially done with my finals and I'm going home tomorrow morn!

Now I have to finish packing. Oops.

But here you go! An outfit post finally!

This past weekend, Veronica and I went to two flea markets in Santa Cruz and had a grand old time. We bought some gifts for people and some other gifts for ourselves. Smiles.

I know it's like the middle of the week and I'm barely posting about the weekend but finals have been shit basically, to put it bluntly. I've really missed talking to you guys about my life and what not though.

With one pretty song...

I'm sneaking in a post today since the rest of the week is busy as hell for me. Plus it'll be a nice addition to your hump day.

I'll be fine by this weekend though. Maybe I'll even have an outfit post for you. Smiles.

Anyway, I thought I'd just show what I'm into right now, clothing wise. Ooh this can be an Inspiration Wednesday! Haven't done one of those in a while.

By the way, I'm thinking about making my hair this silver blue color. It'll be difficult though, so I'm not sure. What do you guys think?

See you soon!
I have some Slug Style stuff coming soon and bits of my wish list will start going up next week. I can't wait to go home for Thanksgiving. xo

Then they dive in it...

So I told you a couple weeks ago that I was going to do some fun Halloween projects this month with Slug Style. I've only been part of the club and going to meetings for a couple of weeks, but it's been really fun so far. It's nice to hang out with people that share the same interests as you and to get inspired by people's ideas that you've never really thought about before. We're starting to get our shiz together about becoming an official club on campus since we're still kind of a baby at the moment. But I'm really excited about what's to come and all the projects we're going to do this year.

Last week, we had our first photoshoot of the year and it was pretty much a success. We all came together  and worked hard but also had great fun. When we were in planning mode, I took the role of stylist with a couple of other people for the shoot. We all went thrifting downtown to look for pieces to style. The shoot was obviously planned for Halloween but the actual theme was "wearable witch" which was right up my alley. Every look we styled I wanted so badly, even though I knew most of it wouldn't have fit me. However, I did somehow end up being one of the models for the shoot because of people not showing up and what not. Yeah, that's me in the hat. Go me doing two jobs!
Veronica did the make up for the shoot (on her birthday no less) and she did a great job. We celebrated later that night with burgers and milkshakes (what else?). Oh and we also did a little impromptu photoshoot that night. It looked so creepy outside, we just had to. Anyway, I thought I'd show you some behind the scenes shots Veronica and I took before and during the shoot. The last one is a little preview I posted on Instagram. Can't wait to show you the final shots. Smiles.

I'm trying to get into the hang of blogging again, at least once a week. It's just been really hard recently especially because I had midterms this week.
But I love you guys and I hope you are having a great October! xo
