Hello there lovely readers !

Just wanted to start off with saying that I hope you all had  an amazing spring break with your family and friends !
even though im super late with it aha

ive been having a pretty busy couple of week since school started
uncluding school things, internship things, and other things 

BUT one thing that pretty much made my day was getting nominated for the Versatile blogger award by the lovely Tuyaymya from whiteteeblackdress 

This is my first nomination so i`m sure you can imagine how excited i was when i saw it, 
I felt really grateful for it.

I can honestly say that starting my blog has given me the opportunity to meet so many amazing girls and be able to interact with people from all over that its pretty awesome. I'm glad i took a step and decided to do this.

There are a few rules that need to be followed after accepting this award 

1. Thank the blogger who gave the award by linking their blog on you page 
2. Share seven things about yourself that people may not know 
3. Give this award to up to 15 bloggers and link their blog
4. Comment on their blogs to tell them of the award 

So here go  7 facts about me LEGOOOOO-

1.  I am told that I am very high maintenance by different people, whatever that might mean lol 
2. with that being said I always tend to be taken care of by other people like the "little girl"of the group.. even if I am older than them.
3. One of my dreams is to to sing and perform, have my own huge concert.
4. When I get sick (which isnt often) I pretty much get everything that you can imagine all at the same time and when I say everything I do mean EVERYTHING. coughing. sneezing. headache. stomach pain. loosing my voice. etc etc 
5. I can be very sarcastic, like all the time actually not on purpose though
6. I am easily distracted, I have the shortest attention spam in the world no lie

Second blogger meetup

Hello lovelies,

so this past Friday I was able to attend the 3rd 

San Diego Blogger meetup
(But it was the second one i attended hence the name lol)

which was being help at Vocabulary Boutique in little Italy

thanks to Lisa Moore and Canopi
Being the second one I attended I gotta say it was easier to just go and start talking
to all the other bloggers, it was all laughs the entire time for me.
I had never been to that Boutique and I must say it is the cutest store!
I literally wanted every pieces of jewelry that I saw, I mean who wouldn't
when they display it in such a cute little way.
(plus i got ideas on how to store my own jewelry)

I had a great time and i honestly cannot wait until the next blogger meet up or event !

its always great to meet new people who have the same interest as me.

Not to mention the fact that I am usually shy when it comes to talking to 

new people but I am slowly getting over that.

Hope you all have an amazing rest of the day and week.

P.s. don't be scared to leave me suggestions on what time of post you would like to see[:

Inspiration can be found so unexpectedly

  

Hello lovelies,

this past couple of days i have been so busy that i feel like i haven't been able to just sit back and catch my breath yet !

In this post I thought i would talk a little about inspiration.

after seeing this video
which I feel I should have watched a long time ago
I remembered why I love fashion so much.

its the artistic part. the expressing yourself part. the (excuse my language) i don't give a fuck side.

By wearing a certain accessories or a piece of clothing we can turn ourselves into anything we want, we can show our personalities (no matter how many we may have) and transport ourselves into whatever decade we love. From channelling our inner baroque to the 1990 style of clothing. for me its these jumbled up along side so many other decades.

fashion is a statement so we shouldn't be afraid to say what we want how ever that is, even if it means looking a little over the top sometimes. I feel more inspired to wear different items, which does not mean I will go crazy and just wear whatever is in my wardrobe. I will put SOME thought behind it and tweak here and there until I find what suits me
and what my style REALLY is.

 I think everyone should have that point of view, it seems that the older we get the more scared we are to wear what we want because of what others will say about it. Which is a real shame because at the end of the day isn't any form of art about making people questions themselves and question you? I want to look back at what I have done and what I wear and just laugh and be excited that I wore what I did when I had the chance. I guess we are chain to our society and the rules it imposes on us, but that is just my opinion of course.

For me at the moment, I am getting  my inspiration from art, old shows and movies and just anything that catches my attention. which i guess is the way to go, but its making me nostalgic for better times
 It also takes me back at the summer days spent with my grandma who had her own unique personal style.
Back to the days when I would wear cheetah print & stripes and NOT CARE it would be too much,
I think as i got older I kept getting the "no you cant wear that"too much that i began
to actually listen to it.

I feel like I need to start doing outfit post already and maybe by the end of the month I will have gather the courage to pick an outfit choose a location shoot and choose pictures to post. Until then I will keep thinking of ideas and how awkward it shall be!

hope you all have an amazing night !
