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.

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...

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!!"
