One More Month!

Hello Dolls,
I just want to let everyone know that I am graduating from college in a month! I'm very excited, as it's been a long journey. Unfortunately, this last month is going to be HELL and I don't know how often I will be able to blog. I am thinking only once or twice a week. I guess I feel a little funny blogging about my lack of blogging, but this has become one of my passions, and I can't stay away for long. After graduation, I hope to be blogging a lot, and maybe even re-vamping the look of this! So please bear with me this next month, and I promise I will do my best to post as often as I can. I have a review coming up, as well as a giant OOTD post. I decided that I will take pictures of my outfits whenever I can, and then just do a long post featuring all of them at the end of each month. Thank you to all my new subscribers. Or, um, readers (sorry, I know this isn't YouTube!) If you have any requests or comments, feel free to share =) And I will still read and comment on your blogs, because it's kind of an obsession of mine. I'll be back this weekend with my review!

The True Meaning of Friendship

"A friend is one who walks in when others walk out." ~ Walter Winchell

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."

"Best friends are like diamonds, precious and rare."

Well to add my two cents to this little list of famous friendship quotes: "A friend is someone who knows you well enough that she's willing to give you THE prettiest milky, baby pink lipgloss in the world."
I know, Deep aren't I?
But that's exactly what my best friend did a few weeks ago, and I've been slicking this lovely pink gloss on my smackers ever since. Seriously, where has this been all of my life?

Smashbox lipgloss in Pout. A bit sticky, but not as sticky as MAC. A bit of a plastic scent, but not as plastic smelling as NARS. In a word - love.

Thanks, best friend ♥ Cuz I know you're reading this!

Just a quick post I thought I'd share in case anyone is looking for a pretty gloss for Spring and Summer. Oh, and I also have found yet another website to browse late at night when I'm experiencing bouts of insomnia:

http://www.chictopia.com/. There are so many stylish girls out in the world. Inspiration overload.

Casual Friday

This isn't technically an outfit of the day because I wore this yesterday, not today. I'm actually sitting in my bath robe as we speak ;) Yesterday I had the day off, and I wanted to take advantage of the beautiful California weather. I have worn this exact same outfit before, about a week and a half ago, but I loved it so much I decided to do a repeat.

I am wearing: a light gray cami from Forever21, a striped tee from American Eagle, shorts from H&M, wedges from Nordstrom (Report), bag H&M, pearl necklace from Forever21, and my latest obsession: mini gold key necklace from House of Harlow (shopbop.com). Oh, and my lilac nails are China Glaze "Light as Air."

What do you girls like to wear on casual days?

What's in My Purse Now?

When I first started my blog, I was obsessed with the beauty girls on YouTube. I still am by the way, but I remember watching those gurus and being totally amused by the "what's in my purse" videos. I've always been really nosey, and I love snooping in my friends' bags, closets, and makeup drawers (with their consent of course!) I posted a Purse Blog the second month I started blogging and I thought it was a really fun post. So because I am madly in love with my new H&M bag, I figured I would do an updated version. Nothing too exciting once again, but I have learned one very important thing about myself: I love lip products, and I carry far too many around with me.

♥ Such a nice bag in a pretty color. And roomy too! It comes with a shoulder strap but I detached it because for some odd reason I like carrying my bags on my elbow ♥

Just the essentials. Wallet, sunglasses inside their case, keys, mini MAC rose pouch I use to hold my cards, a notebook with pen to write my life down, makeup bag, mini lotion, and hand sanitizer. I normally carry my phone as well, but it was charging at the moment.

Makeup bag

Why? Why does one person need so many tubes of lipgloss and lipstick? It isn't even a makeup bag, it's a lip bag! Noted.

~Have a beautiful weekend everyone~

Margherita Missoni

I am having major writer's block today readers, so it's the opportune time to feature my celebrity style icon for the month. Sometimes it just happens. Words don't form correctly, I get a little lazy pounding away at the keys on my old laptop. But Margherita Missoni is so beautiful, and so the EPITOME of jet-setter that I'll just let these pretty pictures do the talking. All photos courtesy of google. Enjoy!

Ta-Da!!!

I know only one exclamation point in my title is necessary, but three describes my mood much more accurately.

H&M Red Rosette Dress from the Garden Collection

Happy Face

Happy Face

Happy Face ;)

What luck! I still can't believe I managed to track one down.The dress is even more beautiful in person. This picture really doesn't do it justice. The only downside is that it needs to be taken in a bit at the bust, and I have no idea how much an alteration will cost. I bought this dress from a girl in Orange County, and it unfortunately isn't the right size. I sort of knew that before I bought it from her, but the dress is so dreamy I just had to have it! Even if it just sat in my closet and I never wore it, that would be fine by me. Some clothes are just art, and this is a stunning example. I do plan on altering it though because I definitely want to wear it. I need some advice too:

What shoes should I wear? I am thinking nude pumps would be great. And minimal accessories so that the dress itself is the focal point. Any other ideas girls?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!
