Time to Catch Up

Wow. It has been way too long since I've posted anything! I've just been so busy with costumes, plays, banquet, prom, school, friends, family, and vacation.

So starting from the beginning:

PROM

My dress is vintage (though I can't remember what decade) from this great vintage store called Elsewhere Vintage in the Orange Circle in SoCal. The necklace is from H&M, and the shoes are borrowed from Alena and are Louis Vioutton... I didn't want to give them back. Crap, I should have taken a picture of the details in the pockets...
I went with one of my best friends, Kyle and although I didn't exactly want to go (I'm not a big dance person) I had a great time.

BANQUET:
This year the juniors in Drama planned the banquet for the Seniors...and since I always have to give myself way more stress and work than I need, I played a big part in planning it. It turned out really great though. When I went to Alena's to borrow the shoes for prom I also borrowed this Rebecca Taylor dress (it has a low back that I wish you could see!) and black peep toe Cole Haan heels.


PARK DAY:
These are from a little while ago, but I usually put pictures when my fashion friends and I have an outing



VACATION:
I just got back from vacation last Monday. My family and I stayed in New York for two days and took a Caribbean cruise from there. The entire trip was amazing. New York was incredible, I definitely want to live there, and I met a ton of really awesome friends on the ship that I'm keeping in touch with.

So now I'm just trying to enjoy summer. Oh and I have a boyfriend now :D One of my best friends and I finally figured out our feelings...the last week of school right before he graduated. But we're enjoying our time together, and we want to make it work when he leaves for college. He's one of the most genuinely nicest and funniest people I know. Tomorrow I will post more fashion related things...hopefully :P


Hope everyone is enjoying summer as much as I am!

Clementines and Cupcakes

Ah, together again.
As a result of boring suburbs, the teenagers in my area are limited to...not much. Countless times have I had this conversation: "what do you want to do?" "I don't know, what do you want to do?" "I don't know, what is there to do?" "Um..." So in a moment of inspiration, Michelle came up with the terrific idea of having a picnic in the park. With that adorable plan, the four of us- Alena(pink dress), Jessica(purple top), Michelle(blue dress), and I- headed to nearest Costco to get supplies, only to walk around the store for a good half and hour and end up buying smart water and pizza outside. From there we were off to a huge park not too far from us, and somehow found our way to shaded spot right by the "lake" and each plopped down on a corner of the yellow blanket. The next few hours were filled with pizza, laughing, ants, yelling at ants, talk of boys, bows, friends, tie-die, shopping, and more. And what do you do when you and your friends are all looking fabulous in a gorgeous park? You take pictures of course!







However, the night ended on a sour note, even after getting ice cream, with my parents forcing me to come home early and yelling at me when I got home for being "pushy" and "wanting more" whenever I want to stay out later. Luckily all is better with my parents and today will hopefully include the four of us going to see The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, because that is the type of movie that you must see with your girlfriends!
