Lots of different stuff

I was reading Sal's blog Already Pretty and I saw Operation Beautiful. Check out the mission. The posts are lovely and I might start soon!!!!!!
I'm wearing a Striped shirt I've admired of my moms at the moment and I'm super happy! I was just given it! I love getting things I've admired forever. I love stripes and wish I could wear them every day!
Did you see the weather today! It was rainy and Slightly windy and over all Fall-y! Sooo refreshing! I love Fall and Am dying to dress up for Halloween. I'm going as a barbie this year, Christie! Note All the pink! I love that color but blues my favorite color.
Did my nails a few hours ago and only made a few mistakes. Go purple! I like all my colors (38!) but I'm itching to buy a new color. I was about to buy it A week ago but saw Elle. That color is grey. I have a nice shiny silver but I want a slate, matte grey!
Did everyone see Snl last night! I'm a huge fan of the show and was super psyched! Megan fox was okay but I think the other people shined a bit more. I love her in Transformers though.
I'm so excited for all the shows I'm watching! Let me tell you my fave five shows.
Glee-I love musicals and this show is so well cast with amazing plot twists!
Eastwick-So funny and thrilling
Community-I love Joel Mchale and the dialogue is hilarious.
House-His method is awesome and all the other people (Olivia Wilde, Jenifer Morrison) are now faves!
Lie to Me-Learning about body language(and more!) was masked by the bickering of Lightman
(Glee is Wednesday, Community and Eastwick are Thursday, House and Lie To me are Mondays)
Happy Yom Kippur! Bye!

Ahhh, second week

Today was just a normal day with one exception. I couldn't stop thinking about the new shoes that arrived yesterday night. They're black , two inch, pointy toed, with a gold buckle and they're perfect! I wanted a new pair of heels for Winter parties so my mom ebayed away and found me those. I wasn't sure if I liked them when I first saw them but by the time I had looked at them in the mirror I never wanted to take them off. After school today I put them on and am convinced I will be wearing them whenever I can. they lovely! School was normal, almost boring in it's similarity to the day before. Soccer though was hard and it was hot outside. I skinned my knee but am otherwise unscathed.
In other news, you've probably heard all the buzz on the Emmy's. Sandra Oh wore a surprisingly lovely dress: It's Marchesa and I love the color.

I usually love was incredible. Leighton Meester but this is wrong. the straps, the size. *sigh* Try harder Leighton.
Heidi Klum was incredible. At first glance I'm puzzled by the proportions but then I see the wonderful beading and I love it. Kudos to you, Heidi, for wearing something unexpected and Black on a hot day while pregnant.
I've gotta go but check out Chloe Sevigny and Christina applegate.
Au revoir!!!!!

Happy....

Hope everyone had a lovely Rosh Hashana! I made a chocolate cake (gluten free of course) and went over Sunday to one of my aunts house.
Today is the last day of Summer! I can't believe all that Ice cream, those camp friends, those days of doing nothing for weeks at a time are over! Instead I get Ice skating, school, more holidays, Halloween. Hope your as excited for Halloween as I am (okay, not possible;))! I'm having a party and am in the midst of planning right now. Please don't laugh, I'm choosing between a Mafia wife, Faery and Barbie at the moment in terms of costume. Leave a comment telling which you prefer.
Happy Monday, Love you all!

Chanel

I am lovin Chanel's Les noir de Chanel makeup collection. The lipsticks in particular draw my eye. Comprised of six products only two are still in stock! Seriously, Check it, even if it's well out of your price range (It is certainly out of mine).

Sorry

School's been really busy, they're already loading on the homework. Because it's been very busy I've been trying to relax whenever I can. Here are my fave five ways to relax
  1. Listening to music. It's so soothing and all you need to do is sit back and litsen
  2. Reading. I am currently rereading but I love to read and it's how I unwind at night
  3. Sudoku! I am in love with this game and am currently winning the challenge at school!
  4. Reading others blogs! I love reading other peoples blogs! Leave me a link to yours and I'll devour it!
Bye everyone!
P.s. I made the soccer team at school!

September 14, 2009

1st day of school

It's been a nice day. School was iffy. It was fun to see my friends but homework. Today we tried out for teams and I tried out for soccer. It was hot and longer than gym in the past so I am beat. Plus I walked home. As I was walking home with my friend I saw a Mr. softies truck. I had wanted to walk my usual way so I could get Starbucks but she didn't want to so when I saw the truck I conceded. I didn't feel like Ice cream so I bought a milkshake. It was overpriced, full of calories and not that good so I wasn't feeling especially good when I got home. I come home, my new keys have trouble opening the lock and the dogs leash is broken. At least I got a new skirt in the mail.

September 13, 2009

Yay!!!!!

Today has been A a very happy day for me. I woke up late because of last night and relaxed.
Last night was very fun but very sugary. Cake, Dulce de leche, ice cream, chocolate fountain, candy bars for party favors. I'm going to get fat eating all this sugar:) The drinks were incredible too, I had A Shirley temple, virgin pina colada, and a virgin mojito(the best). Overall a very fun party.
Today I went to get ingredients for the gluten free cupcakes I made(more later) and found something that made my day. Betty Crocker now has Gluten free mixes!!!!!!! Totally incredibly happy making!
The cupcakes I made came out nice but when I put the second batch in I burned my finger. It's hard typing with mainly my left. Happy Sunday!( First day of school tomorrow!)

10. Walk Away
9. Billie Jean

100th posts!!!

Can you believe it! !00 posts. i started in April and now, my posting is more regular and I write better!!!! In honor of 100 posts I'm putting up a badge on the side! Don't you love it!
Today I went to the first Bar Mitzvah of the year. The ceremony was long but interesting. The party is later and I'm looking forward to it.
Gotta go clean my room! Have a happy Saturday!
(check out my first post!)
I know many fashion bloggers (yes I consider myself one though I post a lot about ME too) are talking fashion week but frankly, I'm not feeling very spring-y. The weathers to cray. I may check out Style.com next week but till then, I'm good with reading mags.

September 10, 2009

Ahh

Today was orientation which meant 10 minute classes and minimum homework. It was filled with information and gossiping but most of all, new stuff. New people, teachers, lockers. It was fun to talk and I enjoyed it. After, we bought school supplies (staples is super packed) and I bought MarieClaire. It's great so far and the cover models are faves of mine.
Lately I've realized how many times I say like and umm. My friend said I sound like a valley girl and my mom is going crazy. It's a good thing I edit the blog.
Bye!

September 9, 2009

Happy School!

Hope you guys all had a good day at school! I have orientation tomorrow but I get homework so it's sorta like a normal day. I spent a good 2 hours choosing an outfit (two to choose from). I checked the weather after and found it says cold and rainy which sucks, It's barely fall!
I'm a gonna go get a pumpkin spice latte, Bye.

Today

I went to Duane Reade and bought 3 absolutely essential beauty tools. I was amazed at how easily I was able to discern what I actually needed. I bought a Maxfactor eye shadow set with pinky neutrals, a set of brushes to replace a few of my old ones, and clear gloss. After all that thought I put into makeup last night I found myself more knowledgeable when putting on makeup and it was easier to see the choices I had.
I've had Wicked stuck in my head for a bit and today I listened to the whole CD for the first time in a while. It's a great show and the music is fantastic. The costumes are also incredible but nothing compares to the catchy-ness of their songs.
Goodbye my pretties have a fun Tuesday.

I Baked!

I finally baked with gluten free flour! I might have forgotten to say but I'm going gluten free for two months starting the 23 of last month. It was hard at first but it's getting easier.
Most people start school tomorrow or the day after but I will be blissfully enjoying home. I have orientation Thursday and start school a week from today. An advantage of my school is how early we end and how late we start. I still have to get school supplies but after that I can ignore it. Some people view school as torture and some love it, I've never has strong feelings either way but it gets repetitive after a bit. My brother on the hand loathes school.
I've been watching a lot of YouTube makeup tutorials and after watching Blair aka Juicystar07's room tour I finally understood Rachel Zoe's term. While watching I repeatedly thought to myself, "I die". Seriously, I didn't get the term till then. After watching these makeup tutorials I find myself needing more makeup so I will be making a list of makeup to buy before school. Last year I had an hour to get ready and never had time to put any thought into my makeup so this year I will plan my outfit the night before so I will have time to plan. I'm proud of myself for making a school resolution I can keep because I usually make good ones that are relatively unachievable for me (another one is to add a piece of jewelery to each outfit). But that's still a week away.
Goodbye, more Beauty tutorials to watch.

Check out my new blog

Feathers, Fashion and Faeries
I decided to not take it easy yesterday and although the trip was incredibly fun (Sun, HUGE waves) being tossed around in the waves didn't help my sore throat and eventually brought back my headache. Today though I am wonderful. I organized a bit ( I have a lot more to do), bought the latest Lucky and relaxed. Overall a nice day.
I was cruising through other people's blogs and imagine my surprise when I come across this: a gorgeous dress screaming individuality and charm. I searched the blog and found out it came from Sika designs. After looking through the sight I have decided Sika designs is completely genius! Unfortunately they only sell in the UK so I can't buy. Here are some favorites.
Though it may be obvious I will share what makes this label so wonderful. When they use a fabric, the fabric is exciting and always in a luscious color. When they use color, they go all the way with a bright piece with lovely details often complimented by a lavish silhouette. Many of their designs are so ridiculously beautiful they make want to scream. More designs, I hear? But of course.
*sigh* I am off to scour ebay, Bon soir, mon amis.

September 5, 2009

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly 3 weeks ago I arrived home from camp and realized I had 223 posts to read on bloglovin. It terrified me but I persevered and today I have no new blog posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The feeling of accomplishment overwhelms me!
In fall news I just found out Starbucks' Pumpkin Spice Latte comes out September 1st! It was my favorite drink last winter and I am sooo excited.
In other Fall news some pieces have come to my attention that I just can't live without.
To start, I have been dying to buy a pair of over the knee boots but can't find ones inexpensive enough for me. These ones Are begging on their knees and despite the hefty 129.99 price tag I am drawn to them. I long to feel the luscious black suede against my skin. I want this Blondee bad.
Every women needs one, most have one and yet the perfect one evades me. You know what I'm talking about. I have a white one, a cropped one and still no nice boyfriend blazer. Forever21 make a nice one with a 3/4 sleeve and Charlotte Russe makes a really cool gray one. Alas I must wait.
I need skirts and tights but these are what I am dying to have.

Sorry I havn't posted in a bit.

I've been on and off sick this week. Today I seem to be better just a bit of a sore throat but I'm gonna take it easy so the fever doesn't come back.

I'm feeling properly pampered after my pedicure.

But I know some people feel differently. After I forced my mom to get her first manicure a few years back she's gotten only one other manicure. She feels slightly repulsed. She doesn't want people she doesn't know touching and massaging her hands. I on the other hand love it. Being pampered suits me. A lot of people like being pampered but I didn't realize how many people don't. I've been trying to perfect my manicure skills for a while but I much prefer having someone else do my nails. Right now my nails are evergreen and my toes are dark red. I love my nail polish and have a million shades. I'm looking to buy some Zoya nail polish because the colors are beautiful.
What do you guys think about nail polish? Do you like manicures or do you like doing your own nails?
Mwah!

September 2, 2009

I really love

Luella! The bright colors, millions of minis and prints all call out for my help. They're being deprived of my love and they're begging for me. The optimistic vibe of the designs draws me in.
Let me show you some faves: One of my favorite colors is purple, especially a deep purple plus the rosettes on the first outfit are gorgeous. The print and shoes on the second leave me breathless, but enough talking, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.











School

I know many of you out there have school in a week. I'm lucky, I start on the fourteenth but despite that, the prospect of starting school is daunting. Of course, there are good things about the school year starting. Weighing out the pros and cons I get:

Pros
  1. Cooler weather( I like it more than unbearable heat).
  2. Seeing my friends.
  3. I love summer but after weeks of doing nothing I appreciate a little order.
  4. Parties.
Cons
  1. Waking up early.
  2. Homework
  3. Crazy teachers.
  4. shorter days
I'm sure there's more I'm not thinking of but It's still Summer and I'm letting my brain relax. Maybe I'm letting my spelling and grammar slip too much but that's for my English teacher to fix (I edit this blog a lot, trust me).

For now I'm going to be content with spending days in shorts outside or on the computer.
Happy Summer-y Wednesday!
