Dressed Up, Zipped Up

So I love ShopNastyGal.com but when I saw this dress I almost cried. I had seen it in a TJmaxx for $20 but they didn't have my size and I was soo bummed. Then I saw it at the mall in some little shop in the window, and they were sold out too! Now its on ShopNastyGal but I don't know if I want to spend $58 after seeing it for $20. Ahh I'll probably end up buying it because I love it. I love the back of it too.

I love the crocheted look of this black dress below:

Sorry For The Delay!

So I was tagged by the lovely Kaelah Beauregarde of Little Chief Honeybee to answer a few questions! Here are her 8 Questions:

1. If you could have a tea party and invite any 4 people, who would you invite and why? 
Okay the first would have to be Sandra Bullock. I think she seems humble and like a genuine person. I am a fan of her work, even prior to the Blindside. 
The second person would have to be Katy Perry because I think she would be fun to shop with. Her style is really fun and I like her vintage inspired pieces.
The third person I'd invite is Anthony Bourdain because I'd like to talk about food and great places to eat. And I figure it would be appropriate discussion over tea and crumpets, right? lol
Fourth person would have to be Justin Nozuka, because I love his music and I have a little crush on him =).

2. What is one city you'd love to explore? I'd have to say I'd love to explore Tokyo. I have always wanted to go to Japan and I think it would have a lot of new and exciting things to explore culturally. 

3. Describe your perfect day!: A perfect day for me is usually a day that includes a coffee from Starbucks and walking through NYC. Whether its dining on great food, window shopping or just people watching. I feel most alive in that city. Its weird but I love it.

4. What are some of your guilty pleasures? (Music, food, movies, etc)
Food= Sushi, Imported italian salamis and cheeses, capers, Asian noodle soups. (random I know)
Music= I love all types of music. Not much country though. But I love Dashboard confessional :x lol Bjork, and is it ridiculous that I have the Twilight soundtrack in my car? lol Ahh Well
Movies= I love indie films. I love the sundance channel. One of my fave movies is Girlfight with Michelle Rodriguez. I believe it was one of her first movies. 

 5. What is your astrological sign and do you think you fit the description? I am a Pisces. And the description usually states that I am a procrastinator, a dreamer, as well as creative. I think all apply. I am always drawing, sketching, painting, cooking, crafting and writing. I am the biggest dreamer! I think that one day I will have accomplished at least half of the hundreds of things I wish to do, as long as the procrastinating doesn't get in the way too much! 

6. When do you feel your prettiest? When I have a bit of a tan, and my hair is down and its curled a bit. I like the beachy waves that my hair sometime gets. That is if it feels like being cooperative! And with a cute summer dress of course!

7. Do you keep a written journal or diary? Not soo much. Its more of a moleskine planner that I jot down ideas that wake me in the middle of the night! =)

8. What is your main life goal? To open up a restaurant with my father. I'd love to have a family business that I could leave to my children.

THE END!    

Wait Not The End Yet!...

My 8 Questions are :
1.) If you could live in any person's shoes for a day, who would it be?
2.) If you could live anywhere in the world, no financial limits, where would it be?
3.) If you could donate a million dollars to any charity, which one would you choose?
4.) What is your favorite comfort food?
5.) What is your earliest childhood memory?
6.) If you could change your name to anything, what would it be?
7.) If you could start life over, would you?
8.) If you could be famous for one thing, what would you want to be famous for?

Once upon a wedding...

So although I am not getting married anytime soon (if ever)! I love to look online at wedding ideas and wedding favors and such. I love the blog OnceWed. They have amazing weddings and photos. I love a lot of the vintage inspired weddings but among all those great weddings I found one that was very pop-artish.


This wedding has bright yellow and pink! This wedding is whimsical and fun and just looks like it was a blast to plan and coordinate. Check out a few of the pics below!

I love the color combinations! 

Check out the comic strip invites below!

I love the hello kitty ring. I am not sure if this was her wedding ring but Hey if those are all diamonds, Why not?!

One Flies Over the Cuckoo Nest

I am going Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs! No But really I am going Cuckoo for these Bright Cuckoo Clocks I came across on Apartment Therapy!

These clocks are bright, fun and playful! They remind me of the bright colored sugar skulls that we see for the Day of the Dead. They are made by a German artist Stefan Strumbel.

You can check out more of his work at his website HERE.

Wedding at Twilight

As we all know Twilight is taking over and has been ! I can't lie I read the books and have seen the movies. You won't find me at midnight DVD releases but I am a subtle fan. Not hardcore just a subtle fan. lol But for those who are HUGE fans, you will enjoy this post.

Imagine throwing a wedding that is Twilight themed!

Its been Ages!!!

Sorry for the fact that it has been AGES since my last post. I am very busy these days, in part because I have been planning my departure! I am packing and getting ready to up and leave to another country. I'll be living in Panama for awhile but coming to the states every 2 or 3 months. I have been distracted so I have been unable to update like I used to.


I am so excited to leave and see where this journey takes me but at the same time I am a bit nervous and apprehensive which can be expected. I am still trying to figure out what I am going to do for a cell phone while I am there. How do international cell phones work? Anyone know? Hmmm...

I want the new iPhone!! Sooo Bad!! And I am loving the white but unfortunately it is unavailable for Pre-order at the moment.
