Outfit Post #32

Will try to keep this short, since I don't have much time to type this up and I'm way behind. lol
 
This is the outfit I wore a few weekends ago. It was a really nice day spent running errands, and that night we met up a friend to celebrate her birthday. We were supposed to go to the zoo (which is why I had to represent the pandas) but we slept in to late as usual. lol
 
Took these around 3 in the morning when I got home so my eyes are very red and tired looking
Hair Bow/Zombie Panda/Panda's Bow/Panda Ring/Koosh Ring (DIY)
Bracelets (HotTopic/Claire's) Earrings (AsianICandy)
Jackets (American Eagle/F21) Undershirt (Wet Seal) Dress/Purse (Ebay - Hell Bunny) Necklace (F21)
Stockings/Socks (Sock Dreams) Shoes (Sheik)
This was another outfit I enjoyed wearing alot. What can I say I love pandas and black/white mixed with other colors. And this dress (as you might know) is a favorite. Might try to make use it in Lolita one day (dreams...)

Outfit Post #31

Another quick outfit post. Wore this for errands and shopping. Adrian actually liked this one since I darkened the look of my colorful dress with black and pink; also a girl working at F21 told me I look like a harajuku girl *(^-^)* That was the first time anyone told me that. Guess my influence from Japanese fashion is showing more.

Dress (Plato's Closet - F21) Undershirt (Walmart) Stockings/Socks (Sock Dreams) Jackets (F21 & Sears)

I really enjoyed wearing this outfit. Felt like myself in it (^-^) And I will always love this dress so sorry you will be seeing me in it alot. lol. The colors duke, the colors...

Outfit Post #28

This is what I wore for the Saturday of Adrian's bday. We were supposed to go see Monster Trucks but alot happened and instead we went to the movies with a couple friend.
 
Was still a great night though since we got to catch up with our friends and finally got to watch a movie in the theater which has been quite a long time. lol.
The movie we watched was D'jango. It was a very good movie but had lots of blood( ゚ Д゚)
 
Top/Skirt/Jacket/Cream Socks (F21) Hair Clips/Bracelet (Hot Topic) Knee Highs (Sock Dreams)
This is one of the first outfits that I got alot of compliments on. I felt so cool (#^.^#) And it as fun mixing the different patterns. I was quite happy with the way everything came out.
I feel like I'm finally starting to get the hang of my style, which is an awesome feeling. Practice makes perfect so I hope I can continue to get the motivation to dress for myself on weekends.

New Years

This New Years despite us saying we were going to try to make plans, we ended up not
 (because we're big procrastinators >_<)

I did however "plan" my outfit for the night. I combined two of my loves. Stars & Rainbows <3

Unfortunately the weather didn't get my outfit memo, and it rained all day.
And since I didn't want to ruin my fabulous shoes (they're suede) I ended up not wearing it :(
Guess I'll save this outfit for a glamorous night out on the town ;P

This is what I ended up in in the end. Went more casual since we decided on a low key night.

Dress/Top/Jacket (F21) Stockings (Sock Dreams) Leg Warmers (Wet Seal)

Finally wore the skeleton stockings I bought before Halloween. I really like them now; they're so fun <3 I tried to layer up since it had been cold all week and instead it was just muggy, humid and wet. I really need to try to start checking outside before I finalize the outfit I decide to wear. lol

We ended up ringing in the New Year with Adrian's family, and I must say it was a perfect way to do so. Hung out and made lots of memories <3

Our midnight Cheers!
Toast to the New Year! May it be filled with lots of love, laughs and good people. I really feel like this year will even better than last year and I can't wait to see what it has in store for me. I didn't really make a New Year's resolution but I'm going to continue my tradition I started last year and just try to be the Me that I want to be :)  Did you make a resolution or have something you'd like to accomplish this year? Love to hear it...

Outfit Post #22 & #23

Going to make this a short post with- a couple of outfits I wore before Christmas Eve. On Friday the 21st I used my last vacation day of the year; and Me, my Mommy, Big Sister and Little Sister all got the day off so we could spend it together. We've never done anything like this but boy was it alot of fun. We went to my Brothers first to spend some time with him and my nephew, then I introduced them to Plato's Closet (They had never been and really liked it. I also bought a dress, very New Girl style) and afterwards we went to Toys R Us and Academy to help my mom finish her Secret Santa shopping. I think were going to try to do something like this again. It was like we were kids again <3 This is what a wore.

Accessories: Scarf (DSW) "Mittens" & Spiked Bracelet (Hot Topic) Purse (Ebay) Red Bracelet (Shasa) Black/White tights & Navy Socks (Sock Dreams) Red/White OTKs (Spencers) 
Earrings (Asian I Candy) Boots (Sheik)

Love my Pandas, and these are cool. One side has an angry panda (see top picture) and the other side regular <3
And without all my winter gear. lol. Dress (Plato' s Closet - Hollister) Under Dress (F21) Jackets (Sears & F21)

And here's the outfit I wore the next, next day. It wasn't as cold so I skipped all the layers and wanted to feel "Holiday-e" so went with red and white/cream :) Kinda reminds me of a casual outfit Mrs.Clause would wear. lol

Dress (Plato's Closet - ) Sweater (American Eagle) Stockings (Leg Avenue)
Going to be posting more Holiday stuff since I'm sure nobody has had enough yet. ;P

Outfit Post #20

This past weekend was great. So happy I only have to work 4 days this week then get to enjoy a 5 day Holiday weekend. YAY!

This is what I wore Saturday. Wasn't completely happy with how it came out but oh well :)
Btw, took these pictures late at night when I got home so I look kinda blah.
Dress/Undershirts/Tights/Belt (F21) Cardigan (Old Navy) Shoes (Marshalls - Guess)
Me and Adrian ran some errands in the morning (post office/Christmas shopping) then went over to my Big Sister's later to babysit my nephews and niece while her and her husband went to her company X-mas party. Boy was that fun :) We stayed up late watched movies and just hung out. I'm glad my sister trusts us enough that she'll let us watch her kids (especially with Adrian) lol.

Hair Clips (Hobby Lobby) Necklace (F21) Ring (GlamourGeek Boutiq)
Still have nail polish on my fingers because I painted them that night. lol
We got home pretty late and had to be up early the next morning but it was so worth it.
I say this quite alot but I really enjoy hanging out with my family <3

I Heart Pandas

Here's my outfit from Saturday. We didn't do anything special just lots of errands but I really wanted to wear the new panda ring I made so I busted out some black and white and added a little red to show some love :)
Top (Marshall's) Skirts (Party City/Claire's) OTKs (Sock Dreams) Cardigan (Old Navy) Shoes (EGL Sales - SS)
I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. Definitely one of my favorite outfits <3
Earrings (AsianICandy) Hair Bows (Hot Topic) Lego Ring (GlamourGeekBoutique)
Red Bracelet/Heart Ring (Shasa) Pyramid Bracelet (Took from Adrian) Puffy Bracelet/Panda Ring (DIY)
  Lots of accessories. I don't really own alot, but I think seeing all of these fashions with excess (I love OTT) has really gotten to me because I want to wear everything and have lots of ideas of things I can make into accessories.

Panda Purse <3
I don't really see my love for pandas fading and I'm actually finding I love wearing things with animals or shapes or other things I love because when I see them I can't help but smile *(^o^)*

Do you have something you can't help but be happy when you're wearing it? Love to hear what it is :)

Work it out

Ok, so again with the sucky titles. Picked this one because this outfit is from Friday. I had a half day at work so I went in something that is a casual weekend outfit for me (only more darker) but not very "office appropriate" oooops. Surprisingly no one was really surprised with it. lol

Dress (Plato's Closet - F21) Jackets (F21 & ?) Stockings (Leg Avenue) Boots (Shiek)
Hair Accessories (Mall Kiosk) Bracelets (DIY & Hot Topic)
I really enjoy half days at work. There's always lots to do and not alot of time to do it so the time flies and before you know it it's time to leave/lunch :) After I got off I ended up meeting my good friend Talin for a Bday lunch and a little shopping. We weren't sure what we were going to do before hand (I left it upto the Bday girl) but I ended up really enjoying myself (and hope she did too). Sometimes just shopping with one of your favorite girls is just the way to pass the time and I haven't done anything like that for a while. I also ended up buying some panda gloves/mittens, a white polka dot top and a new pair of stockings <3. Can't wait to use them. Actually doing something on Friday (besides work) made the weekend feel a little longer and who doesn't love that :)

Walking Art

Sorry for the lame title I'm just really no good at coming up with them and my good friend's mom said I looked like a piece of art or a doll that could be sold *(^o^)* lol. On Saturday we attended a local event that my good friend invited us to. It was a DesignCraft fair with alot of local vendors selling stuff that they created.

Since it was an outdoor event I tried to keep my outfit light. I picked out one of my favorite dresses first. This dress is one of my best buys since I'm a sucker for a colorful prints (because it opens up the possibilities of colors it can be coordinated with) and I got it 2nd hand so it was very inexpensive. Can't beat that :) I tried to tone it down this time with some back and fuchsia (since my hair was freshly dyed around this color). I braided my hair the night before so I went with wavy poofy hair. I'm actually really pleased with how everything came out. It was kind of an OTT outfit but that's really what I like. I also had my panda purse w/a heart (yellow/fuchsia/purple) that I made pinned to it, but since I take outfit shots in the mirror accessory shots can be weird. Once I have my computer up and running I'll finally learn how to use the self timer on my camera and take better pictures. But until then this will have to do because otherwise I'd never get around to posting this and I'm only just starting this blog and don't want to fall off the wagon. lol Outfit Details: Dress (Plato's Closet - F21) Blouse (Charlotte Russe) Undershirt (F21) Stockings (SockDreams) Boots (Shiek) Hair Accessories (Mall Kiosk) Earrings (AsianICandy) Bracelets (DIY & Hot Topic - actually a choker)

We had such a great time. We didn't get as many things as we had hoped (the prices were kind of high) but I did get 3 new rings (2 legos ones and a tea cup w/saucer & spoon) that I am in love with and I'm sure you'll see lots of, oh and LOTS of homemade chocolate that my friends mom made. She is such a nice and very friendly lady that I knew I would buy some. But we went back for more after we tried it because they were that good. Adrian also got a shirt and a piece of art. Might need to take pictures of them and post them later as they are very interesting. It was an awesome experience and next year I'm thinking of even having my own booth to sell lots of cute things. I think it would be fun :) Afterwards we went to Herman Park for a nice walk and topped it off with a couple slices of pizza. lol. It's days like this that makes me very grateful for the life I've been given. Working sucks but it's necessary to work for the things you want and have in your life so maybe I'll be ready for Mondays more (jk, I hate Mondays! ;p)

In the Kitchen

Had a blast this weekend. :) I was lucky enough to have an early weekend since I took Friday off to take my Mom to the eye doctor for lasik surgery. At first I was a little bummed about the fact that I had to wake up early on my day off, but once I saw my Mommy there was no way I could be in a bad mood. :)

Here's what I wore that day (minus the kitty ears) I had my hair in braids, but I put it up into odangos to avoid it getting in the stuff we were making. I had this dress sitting out in my put up pile so thought I'd wear it again before I removed the Kitty applique, plus it didn't hurt that it would match my apron later. ;P
Outfit Details: Dress (Plato's Closet - Hollister) Stockings (Leg Avenue) Cardigan (Old Navy)
I made The Hello Kitty Ears & Bows for my Nieces' Hello Kitty Bday in June, Me & My Sister-in-Law made around 25 ears
I also made this applique out of felt since I didn't have anything Hello Kitty to wear
The surgery took less than 15 minutes. It was crazy how fast it was. We were then advised that she should rest for about four hours to give her eyes time to heal so we headed over to her place for a nap. It was just what I needed since I was sleepy and had a minor headache. My mom isn't one for forcing herself to sleep so she had enough after 2 and a half hours.

We woke up and went where my Little Sister works (Subway) to grab a bite and catch up with her. It was great. We caught her on her break so she sat with us. It was nice to talk to her since it had been a while. Afterwards we headed to the store to pick up the ingredients for a day of baking. It was fun to walk around with my Mom. She was so excited yet so freaked out how she could read the stuff without her glasses but was adjusting to the fact that one eye was fixed to see far away and one up close.

Afterwards we headed back to her place to start baking. And boy did we bake....

4 dozen cupcakes (2 doz. strawberry, 2 doz. chocolate), 2 batches of rice krispies (1 regular, 1 chocolate) and 2 batches of brownies (1 regular, 1 w/walnuts)

It was awesome! Little Sister even came home later & helped. Nothing beats spending a day in the kitchen with people you love, jamming out to 80's music and acting silly!

Serious baking going on
Man, I really need to cut my bangs..... They're soooooo LONG!!!
YUMMY Cupcakes!!! (Little Sister said I need to improve my sprinkles skills)
And I'll leave ya'll with a picture of the bake sale (why I baked all day Friday) I had set up at my father-in-law's BBQ Cook-Off on Saturday. Money was donated to Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Walk & Reach Unlimited, Inc.


Next up, is the rest of the weekend! :)
