Alexander Mcqueen never ceases to amaze me.

Thank you, Gabrielle!!! Your blog is amazing, and I love guest posting for ya!

And also thank you to the lovely Sheena of The Layered Pancake. She's the sweetest blogger I know! :)

Happy Saturday!! I hope everyone will have a wonderful weekend!!

Hot Tamale Train

 The weather lately has still been super hot. And I love these photos of summer outdoorsy fun! :) I really love the bright prints like the above. And I really want to make a scarf like top like in the last photo. It's labor day weekend. And I'm home but it'll be a blast. :) I'm so happy that my first week of school went really well. 

And good good happy happy news, I GOT MY INTERNSHIP!! ah, such an amazing start to an amazing long weekend!! 

What are you guys doing this weekend??

Melanie nominated me for an award!! Thank you so much!!  :) And I'm supposed to tell 7 things about myself as well as nominating 7 other blogs!

1. I actually enjoy reading books. I just never have the time to do it, but I really feel like its a lame excuse because I started reading again this summer, and it feels good. I really recommend Eat, Pray, Love, just like everyone else. But it truly is a wonderful read.

2.  Eating. Yes, I know everyone eats.. But No, seriously it's a joy that I enjoy the most out of many things. I seriously dance when I eat something so good that I could melt, okay more like grooving while sitting but same thing. haha.

3. I'm extremely highly self-motivated. I have always been this way. And I like it... I just like to accomplish my goals and reach for my dreams. It's something that I do and will always do. :)

4. I really love my parents. I used to get really annoyed and not understand why they do the things they do. But they only do it because they love you. And realizing that always puts a smile on my face and makes me realize that I love them so much more. :)

5. I'm a happy person. I like to smile, laugh and stay positive. It really is a state of mind. But knowing that you control your own happiness gives you more reasons to enjoy life. And just spread the joy, yeah lame, whatever, but true!

6. I like to listen to a song on repeat for days and days until I get tired of it and find a new song to repeat the whole cycle again! Currently listening to: Like a G6 by the far east movement (Don't judge, I literally got addicted to this song yesterday! )

7. Planning things is my thing. haha. I like to plan parties, activities, fashion shows, and etc.. like seriously I enjoy it. I swear I could be a professional party planner if I was getting paid for it. haha.

I tag the first seven bloggers who comment. :) Because I love my commenters mucho!

PS : I did a guest post over at 5am je taime on oriental fashion. Check it out HERE!

Have a lovely amazing weekend! Love, Peace and Smiles!

Pretty Little Things: Chockers

Chockers are the IT thing this coming season. An idea is to wear a brightly, colored chocker under button ups. The idea is to wear them underneath the collar, to replace a tie! I think that's pretty damned clever I discovered the idea from Refinery29. And I found a few chockers that I would love to have!! I think chockers, are just really great ideas to wear with simple tops with a crew cut or strapless numbers.These are definitely statement pieces that will help you stand out!

Home Sweet Home

It's so nice to finally be home. And, all my things did end up fitting in my luggage, which means, I now have no excuse to not take pictures of the things I bought. Which will be a later post. (And the photo above isn't my home, but its the lovely gingerbread houses from Martha's Vineyard! ) But I have a lot of cleaning, and organizing of things, before getting really settled. And on top of that I have jet lag, which I don't mind. But I seriously need to get my grocery shop on, hahaha. I'm going to try to stay on my blogging schedule, I have a lot of things to do, and only a month left to do them!! Ekk.. summer is almost finished. :/

I've also just received the sunshine award from Tayebug. Take a visit to her blog, I love the concept of her blog on living happy and healthy!! Thanks so much! :) I'm so happy to recieve it! :) I always love recieving awards, because it lets me know that you enjoy reading my blog, as much as I enjoy reading everyone elses!!

And I nominate these lovely blogs:
5am je t'aime
Fashion Cents
Leia's Delights

Happy Monday you guys! I hope the rest of your week is fantastic!

Guerra De La Paz & Some

A real combination of art and fashion. I'm absolutely in love with these. Everything used is made from clothing. I love the artistic concept of it and the reusing of clothes and recycled objects as art. I also love the bonsai trees, so lovely, wish I could have one of those in my home!

What do you think? See more of this duos work here!

Also, I've got another award, YAY!

Thank you so much Gina!! I'm so happy to get another award, it tells me that I'm doing something right as a blogger. :)

The Rules:

1. Thank the person who gave you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the award onto a few bloggers who you have recently discovered.
4. Let these blogs know that you have awarded them the Versatile Blogging Award.

Uh oh, another random list about myself. haha.. I guess this is good since I can't really describe myself very well, gives me a chance to be more articulate.

1. Laughing is one of my favorite things to do. I'm so easy to make laugh. And I think everyone is really funny. And I'm so ticklish its ridiculous. haha.
2. I cannot live without french fries. They are my staple food. I don't eat them as often anymore because there not so healthy but I eat them when I can.
3. I like making people happy. So I typically have a hard time saying no to people especially those I love. But I'm working on that!
4. I believe that every person has the potential to be better, and improve their own circumstances, whatever it may be.
5. I think that every human being needs to love themselves first. I know, I know, so cliched or whatever, but true.
6. Sometimes I just want to be a singer. I love to sing, and it makes me happy when I sing. Although, I can't remember lyrics unless I really read the lyrics and repeat it everyday, but some days I wish singing could be my occupation.
7. I love collecting random notebooks, and stationary things. Even though most times I never ever completely finish using a notebook. Well, I do for my personal journal.

Lastly I nominate five blogs that I have recently fallen in love with:

WobblinBetty ; Fromskirtstoskillets ; Bruklyn Belle ; Bisousmonamour ; Aki No Yuutsu

And if you have read all of this so far, congrats and thanks! :) But I also got my IFB account up and running, visit me and friend! For some reason, I can't friend anyone! Any suggestions?

Probably the longest post ever.

Saturday Alreaday?!?

Thank you so much Ashley for this wonderful award, this is my third award, and I'm so happy to receive it!

1. Thank the person that gave you award.
2. Copy the award and put it on the blog.
3. List 3 things you love about yourself.
4. Post a picture you love.
5. Tag 5 people to pass the award on to.

3 Things I love about myself:

1. I'm motivated and passionate about life. And I try my hardest to work towards my goals and accomplish things.
2. I'm a really loyal person in friendship, in love, in dreams, in beliefs. So if we ever become friends, I'm seriously a friend until the end, but if someone doesn't value my friendship or me the same way I value them, I tend to step away.
3. My willingness or ability to change. If I feel like I have a problem, or if a situation makes me unhappy I find a way to change it. Or if I do something that hurts myself I have the ability to change it too.

A photo I love: (This was really difficult to decide since I love so many!)

Just some random adorable kids playing, and laughing, I found it online a while ago.

I tag these lovely lovely bloggers:
1. Pluww
2. The Sentimentalist
3. fascination drop
4. Free Honey
5. Heavy Words. Lightly Thrown.

Happy Saturday ya'll!! I'll be staying in today, recovering from the last of my wisdom teeth being removed!! And here's a fabulous giveaway for your lovely weekend!! :)
