Casual Friday.

Change has been in order this last week, I finished all my summer classes and did very well if I might add. And with my shopping addiction that I have been trying to slow down for Vegas, it hasn't really been happening. I leave in less than a week and I don't have nearly enough saved up for this VIVA LAS VEGAS shopping spree... but I guess that just means my Visa will have to keep up with me... or maybe Ill just stay at the pool a little longer to work on my none existent tan... yeah... maybe I will. But I know Ive been such a slacker ALL July pretty much, but im totally working on it. I have no excuse now that summer semester is over. But I wont lie... im getting pretty excited, looking for internships, starting new classes, new degree (fashion merchandising), and just finishing up my Degree + Minor this next year is pretty exciting. I am just trying to decide where I want to move... The Hills, even though completely staged has got me wanted to move to LA... naturally because its the 2nd largest fashion capital in the US but thats besides the point. NYC... ACROSS the nation.. so I am pretty much a skeptic but thats where a lot of opportunity happens for the job I want to go into. Next is Toronto, CA - Also PRETTY MUCH across the nation, and a tad north - But pretty much my whole family lives there so I wont be alone. Last but not lease is Las Vegas Nevada, Its pretty much blowing up in fashion which is kind of surprising, but I think living in Sin City would be a blast.. at least for a year.

Besides my rant about my future and moving I did a little permanent change...




Shirt- RVCA, Shoes- Old Navy, Belt- JMR, Jeans- Old Navy.


Huge change Right?
Yeah I got a little crazy, felt a little punk rock and completely HATED bangs and wanted to be rid of them completely. Dont worry center part is going to be all the rage, don't you worry... my hair just needs to grow a few inches oh yeah... and work on that tan... So thoughts?


Oh and in my casual Friday outfit... you will see peeking from under my boot cut jeans some fabulous jelly looking shoes. Those shoes are these:

THEY WERE A STEAL, reg $19.50 which is pretty much a steal to begin with - they rang up at a total of $4.49. They come in an adorable gold color as well. Now thats a bargain Vegas will have to understand.

I apologize for my Casual attire today. But cut me some slack everyone deserves a break right?
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND.

Dont be such a Pre-Madonna.

Heres a late night giggle.

1. pre-madonna
A very young prima donna.

It is a play on words that uses "Madonna", the name of a pop-music star who is a prima donna of the highest order.

Pre-madonnas cannot help they way they are because their parents spoiled them and they are still developing their personalities.

1. Prima-Donna
From Italian words meaning "first woman" or "first lady", depending on your preference, the prima donna is the leading lady in a performance, and especially in opera. Can also be called a diva.

Is now often used to describe someone arrogant, vain, or just plain bitchy. Diva and prima donna have become synonomous with a show-off or a bitch, regardless of whether or not the person in question is male or female.


I just adore Urbandictionary.com ha ha ha.

But at 11:54 on a monday night ill leave you with this, Goodnight Monday:

Vitamin C.

Orange-you-glad I wrote this post, well you might not be but I am quite excited. This week's Look of the week had my addiction ready to share with the world. My love of orange came at a very young age, not being able to choose a favorite color so I had 2 growing up. Although its still in the line up for favorite colors, blue pretty much stole my heart for the number one spot. Orange will always be there for me, although always being obsessed with it, never can I find it. Im beginning to think that there's an orange drought.... well let me correct myself, there isssss orange out there, but I cant find anything worthy of the beautiful color orange, besides tacky club shirts, or the basic T... Can I pleeeeease get a pencil skirt, patent leather bag (thats not in the quadruple figures), long sweater, or at least a unique dress... alas. Nothing. Im beginning to think that only orange in my wardrobe is going to consist of my Kodak Digital Camera (which I do keep on me at all times) and my orange mesh tank... the label slips my mind at the moment - probably since I have YET to wear it. barg. for a spring 08 trend color, WHERE IN THE CRAP IS IT!? I am kind of going ballistic but have you seen it with nudes, greys, browns, black or white. Its pretty much the warm toned jewel in the warm color pallet, like purple is to the cools.
But lets not get confused now. Im not talking apricot or peach... toned down oranges, beautiful. But im looking for more of a balls out punch of orange, not quite neon... but pretty dang close.

Need some examples? try Spring/Summer 08 Favorites for love at first sight pieces of orange.... I wish I could afford right now.


But seriously how can one not be obsessed with this exotic citrus color, its almost memorizing. Although this is a color presented as a trend for spring 08, its much much more versatile than just a seasonal color, its a year round classic color that gets overlooked. - Yet if you get more into the peachy tones, yeah id lean more towards s/s season myself, but again... I want REAL bright orange.

First I was quite fearful of the pigment, we all think "I dont want to look like its halloween"... yeah Ive said that a few times, but it was more of a who gives a shit kinda attitude and just going for it, although orange is not often seen in fall/winter (besides halloween and thanksgiving to the American residents) I wish I could find some now, so I could layer and combine looks for the upcoming F/W season. There is only one collection so great, so edgy... I needed orange back in my life. Paulo Melim Andersson, although spending a short time at Chloe, being replaced by Hannah MacGibbon...He mastered the art of orange. Making every woman lust for it.



I need that bag, belt and everything from that collection (note the obsession on those mid-cafe black boots).... I guess ill just have to continue my mission... Perfect Orange I will find you!

(note orange color highlist for emphasis ha ha) ♥

Just in Time.

One word will explain my absentee. Finals.
Yes... it is that time, next week is my last week of summer semester and I couldn't be more excited. Im just really busy with alot of things lately. Not only do I have school breathing down my back, sorority recruitment is coming up and I have some work to do, but its all in a days work. But although its tuesday its still early in the week to ask how everyones weekend was? Because not only did I have a great weekend, I have fell madly in love with an accessory I thought I wouldn't really become fond of. Then it happened. and now im screwed.

I have been on the mission for the perfect mens watch(because womans watches are never good enough): Not to flashy, elegant, classic, silver, big, and beautiful.

I fell in love with this, and 3 links later it was sitting pretty on my left wrist.

Beyond now my growing obsession for watches lately, and my love for Cassie - I have now grown fond and quite envious of her watch collection... next on the list... GOLD.




The last picture I had to post because that gold watch is going to haunt my dreams, with the already nightmares I have of never being able to own the $4,000 Balenciaga ankle boots, Im beginning to not care if I buy the Steve Madden or Bakers knock offs. . . Its getting to hard.

And after reviewing Cassie picture son thefashionspot.com, Im pretty sure ill be buying a 2 finger personalized ring, NO LC RING COPY here, that ones to skinny and frail... If your wondering what I am even talking about, hopefully I will have one in the near future♥.
