HITTING GOLD!

     For christmas this year all I wanted was a tee pee! My amazing dad made me one and I am very thankful he did so I could do this amazing photo shoot with the help of my best friend Melisa Guevara to take the pictures for me! She is very talented and is off away at a Disney Internship right now, I know she is going to do amazing things in life and I'm very glad she made time for me before she left! I also had amazing help from my best friend Kyleigh Hall who did my makeup. A lot of time went into this and I hope you guys love the photos as much as I do! For this photo shoot I incorporated a bunch of different styles in it. I have a Native American feel, Bohemian, vintage, and a little bit of modern. All the props I got at a thrift stores. I gotI the chandelier, vintage books and the suitcase from White Elephant. The red rug, fur coat, and the big blue suitcase from This That and More Thrift Store. If you are looking for old Unique furniture and vintage suitcases and collectables check them out because they had a lot of cool thongs!  The red little stool chair from Blessingdale’s Thrift Store. All the other things I already had laying around. The gold dress I am wearing is from Abercrombie and Fitch that my Aunt Deb got me from the NYC so shoutout to Aunt Deb I LOVE IT!  The head band I am wearing I made from flowers you can buy at any craft store. For this Photo shoot I was most excited about that Fur coat that I got for only $5.00!!! If you have ever gone thrift shopping for fur coats you would know that is an amazing deal!! Also if you are looking for old vintage suitcases go to This That and More because the teal old suitcase I got is heavy duty and I only got it for $3.00!! I plan out days to hit as many Thrift Stores as I can which is really fun especially if you go with a bunch of friends! The easiest way is to go to your favorite store first then from thereI see where the next closets one is and go check it out! You never know what you will find! This time I got really lucky and hit gold with everything I found, and I hope you all love the photos!! Remember to comment on what you would like to see on the blog!

New YEAR!! New YOU!!

       Hey everyone sorry about the lack of posting lately its been crazy busy with the holidays and I hope you are all enjoying your break as much as I am! This year I decided that I am actually gonna set a new years resolution and make a list of goals for myself so I have a vision board of what I want to become and where I am wanting to go. Ive tried doing the new years resolution before and of course mine was like everyone else's which is to workout and just like everyone else I was all in to it for like a month then after that I released how much I missed eating whatever I wanted so I gave up, but honestly the working out resolution never works out so I didn't feel that bad about it! This year I made more realistic goals so I'm crossing my fingers I can stick to them. It's a New Year so it's a starting point to figure out who you want to be and figure out the New You! This year try mixing up your style and trying new crazy things! Its time to think about things different, change up your hair and plan many great adventures! Or if you are perfectly content with who you are then thats great too! Your one step a head of everyone else! There is new things to come and I decided I'm going to dedicate myself more to my blog and actually post stuff more often, because I've been slacking! This New Year's I got blessed to have a white New Year's I would have preferred Christmas but hey you get what you get! We also found this frozen pound so we did a little ice skating which was really awesome. I am glad its still the winter season so I can wear sweaters and leggings everyday and for this winter shoot I did just that! In the winter I always dress for being inside but so when I go outside I can just throw on a heavy jacket and still look great and be warm! If you wear to many layers you are just going o feel like you have a hundred pounds of clothes and not be comfortable when your inside. So here I decided to wear my black leggings from Victoria Secret with my high low quarter length shirt from Tilly's. I accessorized with a black scarf from Old Navy but I tied the ends together so it would be an infinity scarf. I also wore high knee socks from Tilly's and black combat boots from Shiekh Shoes. Just an fyi Shiekh Shoes around this time has a buy a boot get a boot for free or a dollar so check that out! For this outfit i choose to have a hunter green Abercrombie and Fitch heavy jacket so when I go  outside I'm still warm! Adding the hunter green also gave it a little bit of color instead of just a black and white outfit and still is settle. For my hair I just threw it up in a messy bun and I wore my glasses just for fun! I hope everyone is Having a great break and I'm excited to share everything that is to come!
