Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte In Red Taboo #18 


This little beauty is the newest addition the my lipstick collection. Its also a birthday present from the BF. After waiting for an order of "Tender Peach" and a having that order canceled because of the wait we went out to retrieve it ourselves. When we got to Sephora the color I wanted wasn't in stock (the reason for the order). But I caved in after apply this beauty and left with my first YSL Lippy. What do you think?

 I am in love with England and it's culture and would love to move there someday. So I was speechless when they brought this into the room.




It was pretty fun and I still have some celebrating to do. I will let you in on that soon and promise more outfits. Summer has started so I shall be getting out more.

I'm sitting here trying to clean up this mess of a room and because I have a habit of procrastinate I gave myself permission to post this. So I'll just continue to brief you on yesterdays events and show you an outfit.

Last night was Allison's (my roommates/photographer) birthday so we celebrated making the whole day about her turning 21. My other roommate and I woke her up early in the morning with a big cake, a banner and music. Later in the afternoon we headed to the Huntington Beach to kill sometime before we headed out to eat. My outfit was a little bit more dressed up for the night portion of the day (i'll try taking photos for you guy). We headed to dinner - where she ordered her first margarita- and then got snack for the movie. 21 Jumpstreet was the movie of the birthday girls choice and it was so funny. Then we finished up by documenting her buying her first bottle. We then followed that up with a few hours of dancing and karaoke.

I had so much fun and was more than happy to make her big day eventful. I hope to be there for many more of her birthdays and share her time with good friends.

Hey guys! No outfit today but I thought I'd give you guys a tour of my room via details. We moved in to our apartment this past August and since then I have putting together my little sanctuary. I always wanted something similar to the rooms I always saw in the back of each issue of Teen Vogue when I was a younger. Now as an adult I am able to create a mature version of my dream room...

 Current nail collection and I'm loving Essie right now!

 My bed complete with my favorite colors (purple and black), bears given to me by the BF, & a bed net.

  My ring bowl, Fashion/Photography books, Photos:Mom & I + Prom.

Mannequin wearing my necklace and dress from my 19th birthday dinner.


 I am very anal about my clothing so everything (tops, dresses, and shoes even my pants by shade put away in a drawer). It all started with my crayons in kindergarten having to be in order by the colors.

 My new DKNY rain boots... they are so fun stomp around in!

  I'm not done yet by this makes me happy to come home too every afternoon. This was sort of a sneak peek. I know I left out my vanity but that is still a even bigger work in process. What have you guys done to create your own safe haven?

So after a few weeks of lazying around after a hectic Fall semester I finally got out into the world for things other than food and family related holidays. I know it sounds sad but after 3 months of being dedicated to school the laziness is well deserved.  I even put in effort to dress like I wanted to be scene .

Allison and I headed out to Huntington Beach to browse shops and do some reading in the sand. It was lovely and I thought it would even be a cool place to take some photos. And because of my tiny compact camera i decided it look weird posing around those bustling by. BUT! and there is always a but... we ended up finding a cut little alley like area in between some restaurants. Perhaps I am not ready to begin posing in public again just yet. Mind You I still have 4 more weeks left on this break so I should experience the outside world and great outfits.

 I thought it was cool to see Natalie Suarez's ad for Volcom. I literally squealed "I follow her blog!" Lol I'm a dork I know.


P.S. I have decided in 2012 my signature for commenting on other blogs shall be 'Violet' instead of the old 'Vi from Cali'

Its Today!

Well it was yesterday (I got to post this close to midnight before the day was over). I started blogging 3 years ago on September 12th 2008. Can't believe I have been doing this so long. But I can't wait for more blogging and I thank you. You guys are wonderful for returning.
