TO THE MOON AND BACK

wearing: Brandy Melville Sadie moon tank {here}, Silent & Noise oversized sleeveless blazer {here}, Zara scarf print skirt, Rachel Comey "Mars" booties {via Threadflip}, gifted yellow leather crossbody bag, H&M bangle

I'm back. & wearing lipstick. So much has changed. Firstly, it's fall! My favorite, absolutely favorite, time of the year has finally graced us with its beautiful presence. You know how people say winter is a magical wonderland? That's fall for me. I love everything about it: the fallen leaves that crunch when you step on them, the brisk weather that's cuddle-friendly, how holding a grande triple shot vanilla latte warms up your entire body, and, of course, the layered yet comfy fashion makes my heart swoon! 

If I look tired in these photos, it's because I am, very much so. I've started a  new merchandising internship at Stitch Fix! With this being my first non-telecommuting position, I'm still getting the hang of waking up at 7 AM and coming home at 7 PM but I'm loving every single moment of it. Between my new internship and juggling midterms, I've been quite the busy little granny; sleeping at 10 PM to waking up at 7 AM to finish whatever I didn't get to the night before {aka everything}. Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches, despite how much you hate, hate, hate mornings.

Wore this outfit to hang with my dear friend Jamie over the weekend. That little nugget can make me laugh for days and days, I love it when we finally find time to get together. Almost every piece on my body is a coveted piece that I waited months before committing to aka waited until they went on sale before snagging. Trying to minimize the amount of clothing I have in my closet, I have been attempting to only buy pieces that I can easily mix and match so be prepared to see these beauties over and over again. Which, brings me to my new loves; I would like introduce my lovely Rachel Comey Mars booties from Threadflip that are infamous amongst my friends. Why? Because they cost half of what my rent does. Forget eating, I'm just going to stare at these beauties instead. Yum!

P.S. Thank you all for sticking by me through this bleak time. Finding time to blog/take photos/not look like shit has been a toughie but I promise to get back to doing what I enjoy most! Love you all to the moon and back <3

And because I'm me and I'm weird, here's a photo just for fun:

Till next time, xox!

MOMENTS THROUGH A FISH'S EYE

Sorry about the impromptu hiatus, I have not forgotten about any of you! School has been time consuming to say the least. Imagine the clingiest girl/boyfriend you've ever had, now multiply that by 10 and that's what school has been acting like. Clingy, needy, and all consuming, I've been tending to it's every whim. Life has been a whirlwind of changes and it has taken me a while to warm up to them. But now I'm super excited and can't wait to update you lovers on everything! I pinky promise that we'll be back to regular programming very very soon!

Until then, here are some fun photos that we took on my fisheye film over the last couple of months. Yes, I make my kissyface way too much when I'm drunk. And yes, we had a onesie party, jealous?

P.S. Don't forget to enter the $50 Shabby Apple Giveaway, there's only 2 days left to do so!

FEARLESS FASHION

wearing: thrifted sweater dress, gifted Liz Claiborne black purse, Too Neon pink pumps c/o Two Lips

Ahem. Can you believe that it's 2012 and I still don't own a pair of pointed pumps? Or neon pink shoes? I'm in shock myself. When I was asked to participate in the Fearless Fashion campaign sponsored by Luxury Palladium and Cosmo Magazine, I was toooo excited. Being a neon fanatic {as seen here and here}, I was even more excited to get the most amazingly neon pair of perfectly pointed pumps that strongly resemble Barbie's own little pair. Me gusta. Mucho. 

With a pair so blindingly bright, I went with the roll-out-of-bed approach and paired it with a heavy sweater that's perfect for fall. With the peek-a-boo slits on each side, I felt slightly dangerous having the ability to flash innocent strangers with every step I take. Now that's what I called fearless.

Be sure to check out the Fearless Fashion Giveaway sponsored by Luxury Palladium and Cosmo Mag right here! Enter for your chance to win some gorgeous diamond earrings that makes my earlobes scream "YES PLEASE!"

SEE SEATTLE

wearing: thrifted denim button up, Brandy Melville Grace dress, silver F21 necklace, gifted white crossbody, Dolce Vita Jamison booties 

Three days in Seattle and these are all the photos I have, which is a good indication that we were having too much fun to stop and take a photo. The mental snapshots of the trip will have to suffice. From coffee shops to gorgeous skylines, we ate, saw and did everything we could to soak up the beautiful life that Seattle has to offer. Highlights? Meeting and chatting with amazing foreign folks {hello gorgeous German roommates who likes to sleep in their undies}, paddleboarding with locals at the beach we didn't know Washington had, and seeing a bulldog that oinks. 

Until next time Seattle...xo
