RED ENVELOPE-- READ AT ONCE!

Ok so in case you haven't heard already, there are some red envelope's being sent to Mr. Obama that are blank. Each red envelope represents one child who has dies because of an abortion. The reason it is empty is because the life that was taken is now unable to be a part of our world.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEE if you DO get a red envelope from someone, fill out the return address and send it in ON March 31, 2009.I don't care if your republican or democrat. The baby's are alive and deserve a life.
You can buy yourself one, but each address must be filled out in your own writing.There is no age limit, as long as you can write clearly.Don't be afraid to get more than one! One for your mom, dad, you and any other older sibling.

PRESIDENT OBAMA'S ADDRESS:
President Barack Obama
The White House

Daily dose of drama.

So last night my hands were kinda red-ish and had that strange numb feeling to them. You know when you just get inside from a super cold day and you foolishly go to the sink and rinse your hands under hot water? Kinda like that expect for not as painful. That's about the only thing I can compare the feeling too. So as I continued on with my life, I was itching a lot and soon saw a cluster of mosquito-looking things on my left elbow. Not fun.
My mom thought I was bit by something, so I took it kinda...dramatically.
So today when I woke up, I had the same pain in my hands. So I did my schoolwork and then went up to practice trumpet. I couldn't handle practicing with the itch so I started praying.
A few hours later more and more started to show up, mostly on my feet. Freaking out, I quickly called my mom, who was in a lunch meeting.
Inhaling, I contacted my dad and he suggested that it may be measles. So I went to google exactly what measles were, and discovered a few syntoms that I had. Coughing and runny nose.
But after several phone calls to my dad later, I realized that they usually are red and brown before they go away. These bumps were pretty much skin colored, maybe just a slight shade of red.
Remembering that a few nights ago I had a mango smoothie, I quickly called my friend Kayla, who is also allergic to mango's.
After asking her what exactly happened to her when she ate mango's. Her mom knows about healing and stuff so I was talking to her.
We started to talk, trying to figure out the root problem to this, which was fear.
Though I couldn't exactly pin point exactly what I was afraid of (the bumps, mostly) she read the bible verse, 1st Timothy 1:5. She said to pray about it, clamming healing over my body. (Which I did before, many times).
So after hanging up I started to pray again and soon enough, the bumps started to reduce ever so slightly. As I type, they have gone down greatly, and the urge to itch isn't so urgent. I can handle not reaching down and scratching them now.
Weather you have a fever, cancer or even an allergic reaction like I did, if you just pray and believe that G-d has the power to heal, it will happen. Honestly.

This entry today wasn't really on fashion (lol) so I guess I will put in a little style.
This is an awesome example of how yellow can be used on garments. I love how the yellow was used in this outfit. Defiantly more than a pop- more like a splash. But used ever so stylishly. And by paring it with black and white, it doesn't seem so crazy and cluttered.

On the Bright Side

Yellow is a confidant and happy color, though yellow walls tend to make people more angry and baby's cry.

Yellow is one of the hardest color's to take in, so use it carefully. Like a pop of yellow in a scarf or bright pump. Maybe layer the color, keeping it tucked under but still visible.

I was totally inspired to start writing some articles about various different colors after reading some of my new Kate Spade book, 'Style'. AHH! I am TOTALLY happy to finally receive it. Man, Amazon.com ships fasttt.

I think this article calls for one of my fav songs, Yellow by Coldplay.

Look for the wind in his yellow hair

YESTERDAY:
No green for me. Tiffany blue and white with my beloved Bebe necklace my mom got me.
I'm a rebel.
~**~
So I just downloaded the song, "The Man Who Isn't There" By Oren Lavie. I have his music video, "Her Morning Elegance" and totally loovveee it! I really like that kinda alternative music that has a lot of piano and violin included. Mabey if the radio played good music, I'd listen to it.

That e-harmony commercial made me want to throw a bowl at the television.

On Sunday I did a photo shoot. It was urban and chic but still high fashion...almost. My bff Kayla's hair was teased up like crazy scientist but she rocked the look. It was freezinggg here but anything for the photo! I did her hair, and Dana did the makeup.

These looks are absolutely amazing. I mean- there were a few...shots I didn't fancy but I love the colors!!! So fab.

Am I the only one who freaked when I found out Genovia isin't a real country?

Now I am an official fan of Juicy Couture. I have downloaded wallpapers on my phone and become a fan on facebook. So it is only right to wear my one and only Juicy Couture necklace. Not much to talk about fashion wise, considering the sun is down here in WA. Love you all, and please please PLEASE keep checking back on the blog!


Not my photo, found it on google. DVF is one of my most fav designers ever since she showed up on Project Runway. (:


Shabat Shalom!

So bright, you need shades

Ray-Ban Wayfarer seems to be hitting the streets these days.
It is a nice break from those clunky (but awesomeee) 80's sunglasses that were hot last summer.
What I love about these epic glasses is that they have that retro-glam vibe about them.
The original Ray-Ban Wayfarer glasses can cost up to $200.00. But for those of us who want to get that look all for under $10.00, check out this fabulous find.


The Classic Wayfarers, Modcloth.com, $9.99

Also available in four more stylish shades.

But for those who want the orignals,





Ray-Ban Classic Wayfarer, Cabelas.com, $189.99



thinkah thinkah

After reading my History lesson today in SOS (Yes, I am home schooled. Heah heah.) I decided I really need to get a job.

Soon the state of Washington will allow me to get one the moment I turn 14. So yeah.

I'm thinking about applying at a near by hair salon, cleaning up and stuff.

But yeah.

I just figure that my taist in clothing is only gonna get more and more expensive, so I may as well start raking up some actual dough instead of my every once and a while allowance.

Let the hunt begin.

OPI South Beach Collection

The new OPI South Beach nail collection is finally out in stores!!!
After noticing many, many adds and seeing a display at the local nail salon, I guess it is time for me to do a review on the new spring/summer shades.
With 12 hot colors to choose from, my favorite would have to be Paint My Moji Toes Red, a warm rosy red. I also love Party in My Cabana, a muted yet delicious shade of pink. You can pick a bottle up at any beauty store. If you want to save money, swing by your local Wal-Mart.

March 10, 2009

Your another year closer to dieing.

First and foremost, I'd like to wish my very best friend, Dana a happy 16th birthday. I had a blast at the hotel with her!
Alexa couldn't come to the hotel due to strep throat so Emily came (YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
I was super excited to wear my fabbbliousss Ralph Lauren Polo flip flops (!!!) to the pool.

I absolutely adore this coat.

March 7, 2009

sad I have to miss chuch, but this would be my first event I have photographed. (All for free- so it's not work)

So it's 12.02 or so right now and I am getting all the last-minute things together for Dana's 16th. She is getting baptized today and I am going to take photo's for it!!! Super awesome, yes. Her father is going to baptize her at one, when we arrive.
Then we are planning to exit at two o'clock to the hotel. Yay! I am super excited. I have an excuse to wear my new Ralph Lauren Polo flip flops at the pool!! Yay!!!
So like, last Saturday my friend Emily's younger brother, Joshua was wearing his Polo glasses. I finally recognized they were Ralph Lauren, "OH! Those are- those are Ralph Lauren Polo!!"
Niki-who is into fashion as well-nods, "Oh yeah!"
"Oh!! I have flip flops that are Polo too!"
"You have designer flip flops?" Emily chuckles, her eyebrows raised.
So yeah, flashbackkk.
Um, so yeah. Shabat Shalom everyone!!

exclamation points for excitment and arggggggggg

So this weekend I am going to have to skip service to go to my bff's, Dana's 16th bday. We, along with four other friends plus her sister, are going to a hotel somewhere in the upper city.
I am excited but also kinda sad, considering that I absolutely love going to shul. But thankfully, we won't be shopping until Sunday so it will be all good.
Packing is kinda arggg for me. Cus I have to wash all the clothing I want to wear, wait two hours for it to get cleaned and dried, then fold everything to fit my OCD in the two tinnnyyy duffel bags. Mabey I should invest in some more chic duffle bags.
Well, I realy should start packing...should. I'm planing on updateing tommrow morning before we exit the studio.

March 5, 2009

And why isin't Mr.Clean real...?

So I went to my friend, Indigo's birthday thing and we were [sopost] to wear a skirt/dress. [it was optional...]
And considering I only have one skirt-a vintage-looking a-line with different fabrics. Fabulous.- I had to go with that and a white blouse and vest. I identified myself as looking as a clown, even though It was all in my head. I mean, the outfit was cute. Just...different from what everyone else was wearing.
Amina looked so fabulous in her new dress!!!! The color ROCKS against her light flesh!!! Safia thankfully got a dress on her second run to Kohles.
The party was great and I am now sitting here, knowing I should really clean up my room a bit and make a list of everything I need for Saturday-Sunday.
Saturday night after shul I am planning on going with my friend Dana to a hotel for her 16th birthday. Alexa, Virgina, Kayla and Allie are also coming. Then on Sunday we are planning on shopping.
When we were at Forever 21 on Wednesday morning, I saw the cutest sundress!!! It was a bold blue...hehe. [I'm a summer, so I am so post to wear muted, grey tones.] Oh well!!
Well, gotta eat. Wonder what we are consuming tonight...

March 4, 2009

Mission Accomplished.

So today after visiting and re-visiting many, MANY shops, Amina finally decided on a fabulous magenta dress from forever 21.
While we were there I just had to pick up one of the new pieces from the Shibuya Mon Amour collection. I got the light grey shirt with the cute little fawn on it.
The fawn is more off-center on the shirt in real-life.
When we were on the search for the perfect dress, we walked into Charlotte Russe's store. I had seen her website and again, Amina and I were like, OH!!!! CHARLOTTE RUSSE! It was totally awesome. <333
So anyways-lol- while at Forever 21, I spoted some amazingggg shoes that I saw on there website. So ofcourse, I had to try them on!!! They are actuly not as tall as they look on the site. (Four inches, psh!)

A Little Bit of Ahavah

In case you didn't notice, I changed the 'Blogs I Adore' to ahavah, which is Hebrew for love.
So today I went dress shopping with my two Friends, Amina and Safia. Expect, after browsing though many different stores, we didn't find one. We did see one she loved but it wasn't really useful for casual wear...
So we are going shopping again tomorrow in the morning! We were only able to go to the smaller mall, and tomorrow if it is the LORD's will, we are planning on going shopping at the larger and upgraded mall where Forever 21 and H and M is.
I should start doing the 'What I Wore Today' or something kind of post, but I don't have like, amazing pieces quite yet!!!
My friend Allison is creating a makeup blog, where you can all find out the latest in cosmetic trends. Go check her out; allisonscosmeticbag.blogspot.com/

What would we do without spell check?

Week. Tired. Hungry. And sick of writers block.
I received the latest InStyle magazine last night, I honestly screamed when I got it by surprise. But I do have to say that I like the Elle magazine better, it doesn't have all celebrity's and stuff. Or maybe I just like it better because I want to work for it. :) Amina, Safia and I hopefully will be shopping tomorrow to pick out an outfit for a friends party. All of us have like, nothing new to wear and are dyeing to go back to H and M. On Thursday when in Seattle, we went into H and M and I found the most amazing white coat for $34. I just have to get it.
I have an obsession with coats, especially blazer jackets. So far, I have one cropped light yellow trench and a black and white tweed blazer.

While looking for some 'Get that look' items, I came accost a amazing belt;

J.Crew skinny leather belt, $29.50 Okay so maybe I wouldn't spent thirty dollars on a belt, but you have to admit that this is just delicious! I am in love with the color and the fact that this stylish little piece is so usable in so many ways! You can use it over flowey tops, jackets, jeans, slacks, dresses and anything you can think of!

So yes, that is my post for today. Nothing to exciting to say the least. This week is moving by slowly, and it's only Monday.

It isin't some magical creature who lives online! It's real!!

I was in the big city of Seattle on Friday, selling cookies with three other members of our scout troop. While strolling down the street for a free haircut at Sassoon, the magenta interior of a nearby boutique strikes my attention. Involuntarily, I cancel it out, thinking it was some crazy random shop.
So there me and my mother stand on the street corner, some random guy next to us. I look over at the shop again, and the name catches my attention. Betsy Johnson. I literally start jumping up and down, clapping my hands, "Its BETSY JOHNSON MOM!!! BETSY JOHNSON!!!" I imagine the random dude looks over at me like, what in the world?!
Once we cross the street, I dart over and gaze in the window. "MOM! MOM! That's- that's the Evening Tea Party dress!!! You know, the one on my bulletin board?!" The Evening Tea Party dress first caught my attention while searching online. It comes in a variety of colors, all poufy and frilly.
I stand there gazing though the all-glass door, hazel eyes wide. I stare in disbelief for a moment.
We have to get to the salon quickly, so my mom says we can go in quickly after the appointment.
AFTER THE APOITMENT-- I practically dart in and touch the amazing dress. My mom looks at the price as I droll over it. "It's so pretty." I exclaim softly, gazing over the pink-and-white version.
"It's also almost five hundred dollars." My mom says, glancing at the tag.
We have to leave to get back to in front of AE Outfitters, where we were selling.
That dress is absolutely divine. If I had $500 with me, I would have bought it in a heart beat.
My mom is also into fashion, but she holds me back to making snap decisions.
As we walk away, I am still hyped-up, "I can't believe it [the store] is real! It isn't some magical creature who lives online! It's real!!"
