old but new

 tThis is an outfit of the day from a couple sundays ago. Feel like shopping at epic i can always find something cute there. this skirt 5 dollar.

flying past sunday

Last 3 Sunday's outfits of the day .
i know i have been slacking big time
in my defense planning a wedding is hard work ppl... and by this i mean i spend all my shift browsing through hairstyles, centerpieces, and invitations and i don't have time left over to blog
no more neglecting my blog duties i promise

The grounds I walk on now

If i sit and think about how drastically my life has changed since 2011 i realize how blessed and loved i am. All the goals that i set for myself i have striven to accomplish. The things that I've dreamed for all my short life are quickly being received . Its crazy! This level of happiness should be illegal haha jk. I now truly know and appreciate that this is the reason heavenly father planned such a complex yet simple contract for us. 

Visiting the temple grounds with Sky on Sunday felt like heaven. The peace we obtained can't even be explain it so why bother, but let me say this: Once you have experienced this joy you will never forget it or will want to let it slip through your fingers, just saying !!! 

long reflexions

i've been using this belt way too much lately... obsessed much?? yes, i think so
anyways i got this maxi dress a year ago at holister and i have definitely got my moneys worth cuz i wear this all the time.
like for example here

guess what guys my face is clearing up so good
im so proud ! I've been washing my face every night  with bio re detoxifying cleanser i use the mary kay moisturize and treatment. the hard work is paying off

How wonderful life is when your in the world! 

i kinda went over the top with the flower motifs today didn't i ?

Disappearing act

shoes  Catherine lee
skirt down east basics
shirt express

Sunday outfit lovies! i love Sundays !! i used to not love them as much but now they are my fave does that make me sound old?... Didn't think so

Somebody told me i looked like a 50's house wife today ! best compliment ever !! not the housewife part just the 50's lol

I've been rocking this hairstyle for two days now. Only because my hair has grown out its cut and i can't get it to look decent just by straightening.  Don't fret this hair style is super easy and looks 100% fabulous haaha

 Say hello to pink cheeks and porcelain skin

 Side swiped bangs 

and the Cutest Dimples....

wait where are my dimples ??????

i was freaking out when i was taking these pics. i thought my dimples were gone. For whatever reason they had de-friended me and had moved out of my face ... maybe they got evicted. maybe they had better plans... My life was shattered into tiny lil pieces. Life  flashed before my eyes. noooooooo!! they are gone :(
then i smiled really really hard just to double check ...

Poof!! they are still with me. phew!
carry-on

Universal

 

shoes- Charlotte russe jeans- American eagle ring-forever21 

Goodwill goodies !!

this shirt and belt .... yea both from goodwill
I bought this shirt because the color is perfectly Easter. no?
anyways so i ended up changing my outfit plans last minute... and rocked a dress instead. nevertheless i still love this shirt. Its so comfy!! i might have to alter it tho cuz the sleeves are a tad bit huge..
As for this totally 90's cheetah belt (it has a fran from the nanie feel to it huh?) it was only a buck!

Spring is in the air

 I cant believe its already the end of April!!
slow it down 2011 your flying right past me .
i guess its kinda good it's going by so fast that means I'm staying busy .

can anyone tell me why this dress is size large ?
i bought it at down east basics and since they didn't have my size i decided to just purchase the large.. better fit then a small i think. Sometimes clothing can be constricting dontcha think??  i like that i swim in this dress with out looking like a "frump de la frump" (thats my made up word for sloppy)

these pics where taken by Ms. Asthon. Thanks for the images girly.


Im wearing :
shoes- bought them in cali (the alleys)
dress- down east basics
belt- hottie

Easter chic

Needless, i am so happy and blessed . Easter weekend was amazing...recap some of the events shall we?

On Saturday i met up with friends at the mesa temple Easter pageant . What a show.. although I've seen it many times it always manages to yank a tear from me. Even more amazing is the fact that these events truly happened .. that god loves us so much he allowed his son to pay for our sins and set up the atonement for all of us.

Anyway after the pageant sky and i went to watch the movie Rio . In 3d !!   ahhh it was such a good movie i recommend it . I love blue

sorry pic is kinda blurry 

 

 

On Easter Sunday i attended my best friend jade's son n her hubby's baptism. i was so glad i could be there with them to celebrate such an amazing time in their lives. :) plus her church is way fun ! Praise the Lord  hehe

 

After that i dashed over to YSA ward  !! I LOVE MY CHURCH!  Oh and sky finally came with...

We had awesome speakers and of course very emotional being Easter n all . This is what i wore

Color blocking?

 Tried to give this whole color blocking thing a go ...
 I give myself  a grade of.... drum roll please .... maybe a C and that's pushing it ladies! ekk never had a C before !
i tried guys :( extra credit for effort right ??  but to make up for the "not so brilliant hues" i posed by a cactus :) is that a smile i virtually see??
think i should go shopping for some bright neon pieces. and give it a try again... this whole color blocking thing is so intriguing
lets put that on my to do list, sounds like a plan.

cardi forever 21

 

My friend and i went to the coolest little hole in the wall restaurant the other night
Los Reyes de la Torta... if the name alone doesn't convince you maybe the fact that they were featured on the show Man vs Food will do the trick.
these tortas are scrumbtiolicious i tell you
i could only eat half of mine and he couldn't finish his either so food definitely won

deals n steals

Earlier this week i went on a lil shopping trip with my sister. We went to superstition mall and gap was having a sale ! i found this cardi for 29.99 yay for sales

topic change: so im almost done with the book The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, i gotta say its a good suspenseful book and a well written one at that ...but i just don't like all the gory sexual violence it comes with. I wish books had ratings (this one is an R) like movies. That way you would know what your getting into. It sucks that once you start reading and your into the book and all this gross stuff happens your scared for life ...

Dressed in Sunday's best

This is what i wore Sunday for church 
shoes: Betsy Johnson $15 at last chance best deal 
dress: Dillard's
cardi: gap only 19.00 on sale used to be 69.99 wooo hooo for sales

this outfit was a smash hit with the ladies. Everyone kept complimenting me on my "skirt" only i knew its true identity a dress ! haha

A couple of nights ago i was having the worst day ever. As always when having a bad day, i lit my little  scentsy candle to try to relax and i prayed... when i was done praying i layed down in bed and just tried to go to sleep ... i could not... so i opened my eyes and there it was

lol i could not stop smiling ! god has such a way when answering prayers ...i mean i know its silly but this little heart made my night in so many ways it still makes me smile now as I'm writing this blog ... i guess its god's and i inside joke :)

Pink n yellow

someone is having writers block right now
i wanna tell you guys all about this awesome top that i found on sale at Charlotte's Russe for only 14.99
that i love how lightweight and summery it makes me feel....
that these shoes have nothing to do with pink but i thought gold and yellow are kinda in the same family so i thought i'd pair them together
also that these pants rock my world because they are bell bottoms and I'm falling in love with calf freedom
but its Friday morning and I'm a lil lot tired ...
wait i think i just accomplished the task right? telling you guys about my outfit haha this will have to do

shirt- Charlotte's russe
belt- target
pants- forever21
shoes- bakers
