style sync


Now that I have a new recently repaired iPhone I have been on the hunt for fun apps... I just recently found a Gap Style Mixer app that seems to be ideal for uploading articles of clothing and creating outfits as well as capturing daily outfits... needless to say, I am really excited to try this one out and see what all the features have to offer.

Are there other great style inspired apps out there that you other lovely bloggers use?

How laser hair removal work? Hair removal process with laser is to targeting hair follicle with laser so that hair can't grow again. When the area is being treated by laser, the technician will apply a gel over the entire area. The gel will keep the skin cool when the laser is applied.The discomfort caused by the laser hair removal on the skin is very mild and fades very quickly. Most people describe it as having a small elastic band snapped on the skin. You have to take treatment for three to eight times to remove those hair completely from the area. After that you need to go back for yearly appointments in order to target some new hair growth that has popped up since your last session.

So, does laser hair removal work? Yes it does. It has been tried, tested and certified by the FDA and millions have seen the amazing results. It saves you money and time in the long run when compared with shaving and it saves you the pain of waxing. Laser hair removal works and it works well, but it does not always work as people think it will, which does not mean it doesn’t work. It just works differently.

it's moving time!


Its been a while... I have been a bad blogger with so much going on for this busy work week and my pending move.  Above is a little photo collection of the new apartment complex.  By this time tomorrow, movers will be setting us up in our new place.  I am very excited, I can not wait.

Sadly, I am feeling under the weather today, I hope that I am not getting sick, there is so much to do this weekend that I cannot ALLOW myself to feel run-down.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend, expect way too many pictures to come from me by the start of next week, I feel like a little kid waiting for Santa. I am so very happy to start my little life with my sweetheart.

grateful for this day


No matter what I am dealing with I will always try to find something to be grateful for.  I try to think about at least one thing a day that makes me happy and that I appreciate.  Sometimes I have a long list and then some days I struggle to think of just one, but by the end of the day, there is always something. Always.

Today I am grateful for:
  • The exciting things to come: I am moving soon and even though packing up everything and boxing and purging my closets is going to be a pain, when it is all complete, I will be living in a nice place with my belongings and will have a roof over my head.
  • My job {believe it or not!}: It does stress me out, but the money I work hard to earn there affords me the ability to live the life I want to live. It may not be extravagant, but it is usually pretty happy.
  • Creativity: I am grateful that I have been able to work on this blog and pour some of my creativity out into it... I learned a little html, I learned how to edit photos {for free, btw} and I am constantly inspired by other bloggers.
  • Learning to be Stronger: I am trying to learn how to be a stronger person on the inside, I am focusing on the good things more and trying to not let other people or situations control or consume me. Maybe I need the most help in achieving my goal on this last one, but I am aware and really trying... somethings just take a little more time and practice.
Well, hey, that's three things to be grateful about... I guess I am ahead of the game today.

under the weather

I havent been a very good little blogger... I havent felt very good the last few days and things have been a little stressful with moving and work, just life in general.

Hopefully I will be back to my old self in no time at all. This weekend is going to be all about cleaning out the closets and cabinets, packing and organizing.  I am so excited for the big move, this nime next Saturday I will be snuggled in my bed at our new home {hopefully my love doesnt have to work early and we can make a little breakfast or something.}

You'll see in the 2011 haircut trends section below that the bob is back for 2011, though specifically with a fringe. For those who want or already have a bob haircut the question becomes how to style it in 2011. Taking the lead from the wavy hairstyles trends of year 2010, for the longer bob hairstyle waved bob is used to keep the on trend bob style (again the trend length) in 2011.

People that are interested in getting the latest short hairstyles, this might be exactly what you are searching for. Once you pretend all the variables on how to obtain the perfect, suitable short hairstyle everything should go smoothly. Don’t be fooled though. It isn’t as easy as I say it is. There are actually multiple steps you need to consider. Firstly, the whole point of short hairstyles is to frame your face; the keys are the layers of the hair that are left in the front, side or back. Second, there are three categories in which you may classify the different types of short hairstyles. The super short, jaw and chin length. Assume your hair reaches to the shoulders and slightly beyond, that indeed would fall into the category of medium style hair.

the sweetest

We had a pretty great first Valentine's day, knowing that I really like Valentine's my sweetie really put in a lot of effort to make the day special for me.  He drove all over town getting me a bazillion wild daisies, took me to  the beach for lunch, we strolled on the beach and took a ton of silly pictures.  Overall it was a pretty great day and I realize what a lucky girl I am.

I found a good one... and I hope that he knows I think he is the bee's knees, he is after all my sunshine.

for my valentine


Happy Valentine's Day to everyone, I personally love Valentine's Day... Some say that it is a "Hallmark holiday" but I think its an extra special sweet day to give a little extra love to the people we care about.  This is my first Valentine's day with my sweetie, and I am very excited to spend a little time with him.

The gift that I got for him is the above pictured watch from Aldo along with a scavenger hunt of love notes. I bought a pack of those Valentine cards that little ones give out in school and on each one wrote a reason why I love that boy. Then placed them throughout the apartment, in pockets... in protein powder, in pasta noodle boxes... just all over.

I gave my love his gift last night (I am lame like that... I cant wait to see people open presents, so they always come early when they come from me!) I am so happy to have my first Valentine's day with my sweet-heart and I am really looking forward to many more with him.

the new 'do

First of all... you must excuse the silliness of the "in car photo" they are pretty silly, but I was running errands and didn't really have the time to stage an even sillier tri-pod photo shoot :) Anyway, the above is the result of yesterday's hair party with Miss Alisha. Oh, and here is a link if you are interested in seeing the before.

I am really loving the new hair, the plan was to go even lighter, but I like this in between blond and brown color a lot. Maybe as summer gets closer I will go a little lighter still, but for now I think that I found a happy place in the color spectrum.

By the way... I am wearing that fabulous foundation from Smashbox that I splurged on yesterday in these pictures, it matches my skin color exactly... EXACTLY! I am wearing Light L2 if you are interested. My skin has never looked so radiant and Smashbox does not test on animals and is certified as cruelty-free, that makes me very happy.

saturday... all day

Yesterday was a fun-filled day! I woke up so early and had an entire Saturday to do things and it was amazing.

I saw my beautiful friend Alisha and she dolled me up, just a slight trim (that somehow makes my hair look longer? huh?) and some heavy highlights to lighten up my drugstore black box debacle. I am really loving this color and while I am still VERY tempted to keep going blonder and blonder, I must say that I am very happy with it the way it is now.

After the hair party I splurged on some Smashbox Photo Finish foundation and primers in Adjust to reduce redness and Light to illuminate (my sweet boyfriend even knew said it was the "best kind").



I made a few friends at PetSmart, they were doing doggie adoptions so of course I picked up every dog and let it kiss me and in turn kissed and loved it... as much as I want a dog, I know that we arent ready to have a 2nd pet, especially one that requires a schedule and structure. Maybe in a year or so we will be settled enough and ready to have a yard and a dog.

The doggie adoptions did get my wheels turning though... I really want to sign up to be a volunteer a few days a month to help out with the adoptions. I would certainly give me my puppy fix and I would get to see them go home with a new loving family, that makes me smile just thinking about it.

Ummmm... so my sweet boyfriend once made a comment about how sometimes people tell him that he looks like Jake Gyllenhaal. I didn't believe it. Then... a co-worker of mine commented on the photo of us at my desk, saying that my love looks like Mr. Jake. I guess it wasn't until I watched Prince of Persia last night that I saw it for myself.

So I guess my J does look a little bit like Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal (don't tell him I admit to this, he will just love it!)

Now I am curious to see who I can find that is my celebrity twin counterpart... suggestions???

the very first outfit...

{Dress: Old Navy, Belt: NY&Company, Sandals: Target, Sunglasses: Jessica Simpson}

This is my very first outfit photo... taken back on June 26th 2010 in Ybor City/Tampa Florida. I thought that it may be nice to take a little look-see into the past before I really get cranking on becoming a little paparazzi in the near future.

The dress, from Old Navy, is literally sitting in a massive pile of items that are no longer my size and in need of a new home. I recently did a closet clean out after my weight loss and have eliminated more than 2/3rds of my closet's contents.

I took a few well loved items to the tailor and made a little investment in them... sizing them down so that I can still enjoy them. But the truth of it is... a lot of the items I pulled from my closet were items that I really didn't love, that were just there to be there and hang out with the rest of the clothing.

My plan is to sort the gigantic pile of clothing into smaller piles, one to take to consignment shops and post on eBay, one pile to donate to Goodwill, and one pile to set aside for my friends to dig through or do a blogger swap (that would be peachy!)

Now that I am close to where I want to be as far as the way my body looks, I am trying to figure out my personal style, redefining myself, my goals, my needs and attempting to create a wardrobe that reflects my soul and personality both effortlessly and stylishly (while also doing all of that inexpensively!)

life and style

In a previous life blog I wrote about fashion and posted pictures of my daily outfits. I plan on doing just that, here, soon.

I didn't really do the whole "New Year's Resolution" thing this year but if I can write my list now (super late, I know) it would go a little something like this:
  • Take at least 1 photo a day to document my life and all the moments of happiness that I experience.
  • Enjoy a weekly date night with my sweetie, even if that means we cook dinner together at home and watch a few recorded episodes of Shameless and the Jersey Shore.
  • Try going to sleep earlier and get plenty of rest.
  • Find some creative outlets and hobbies (hey, I bet this blog would be a pretty good creative outlet/hobby).
  • Find more fun, preferably free - or at least inexpensive, things to do in town.
  • Work on building better friendships.
  • Be more thankful and appreciative of the things I have in my life that are great, acknowledge them and smile :)
