Changeling

OMG, I just watched the movie Changeling and it was awesome. Although it dragged on a bit I enjoyed watching because I was captivated by the 1920's fashion lol! Most times, I like to educate myself a bit of each fashion era by doing some research. So some things I found out that were interesting was the fact that 1920's was the decade when it entered the modern era. It was the time when women first liberated themselves and when men began to wear sport clothings. It was also the time when women won the right to vote and began to enter the work force. So as clothing changed, society did also. Bob cuts were in as well which you can see in these pictures.

This was one of my favorites. I think I would not be able to pull it off however, because I think it looks better on someone much thin or slender looking.

I liked her sweater here, reminds me of the boyfriend fashion right now. I would never wear such shoes however. But to love style is to appreciate all genres of fashion, right?! I like how comfortable of a clothing it looks and the carefree sense it gives. Do you agree?

This amazed me because I guess this is what they wore to sleep back then. Ahhh the silk, gotta love it.

I just like the glamour she has here. Smoky subtle eyeshadow with off-red lipstick along with the cloche hats. These waves were called the finger waves which went with bob cuts very well.

So gorgeous isn't she?

Cheesecake Factory Part II

Hello world :)
Okie dokie so here are pictures of my family's dinner back at Cheesecake Factory! Haha. The food photos I took on my previous dinner appealed to my my mom so much she wanted to try it out! It was also her birthday celebration, so glory to God for another blessed year for her. So it was a cold night (as usual) in frisco so I wanted to be girly but definitely warm at the same time.

I took this random picture b/c I thought it was cool. This lead to mini stairs that had a grass on every other step.

Well that's all for my blog. Take care!

a bit of glam for the night

Heylo again :-)
Okay sooo before I get busy this week again. Here are just a few pictures I had with friends of mine from dinner on Saturday. I don't know if I have a picture of my whole outfit but I wore some black high-waist jeans with a ruffled checkered top and to hide my belly I wore a black belt over to keep my big belly in place (if you know what I mean) with a pair of cowboy boots.

Our dinner venue for the night :-)

Group Picture

another group pix before we get ur grub on haha

an "up close & personal" shot

one of my BFFs (since Middle school), she's a sweetheart

AND...
now our yummy delights:

-Chicken Madeira-

-Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken-

-Bistro Shrimp Pasta-

-Mango Rita's-
(which I DID NOT have any of)
but pretty isn't it? :-d

The car ride back home with my face in half :-d. Ends with many laughters for the night :).
So I did my make up for the night, I don't usually wear so much since I go for the more natural look, but every now & then you'll see me with make-up on for special occasions. I did my other BFFs make up who is wearing the creme top in the pics. Do you like it? I use to do make up and hair do's on my free time before and it was a great side job, but since I'm sooo focused on school now, I cannot make the commitment to do so :-(. Maybe in future blogs, I'll put vids on how to put certain make-ups? Sounds like a good idea right? It will make for a more interesting blog. My future plans are to pursue cosmetology and/or Fashion field. Exciting right? Well God willing and in time, hopefully.

Well, I hope you all enjoyed my photos :) cuz I took 'em just for YOU bloggers. Promise.

Laundry Days



So as usual SUNDAYS are laundry days. How sad right? Haha well it's practically the only decent day to do it with no rushing and no worries about other appointments and so forth. It was also church day but unfortunately I was not able to attend due to over sleeping =(.

I've been feeling bummy all week so my outfits have been a bit boring. I guess it's the weather too. It's been raining & gloomy like. However, I usually almost always wear black and/or blue anyways :-). But coincidently in the last 2 blogs I've been wearing black tights and a blue top Lol. Hey, well at least it's different tops right haha and different tights of course, otherwise that would be eww. You can't go wrong with many tights right!?

In the 1st picture, once again the "fist" pose lol, I guess "bad habits die hard" folks. In the 2nd pose, I felt like being silly, so my mom told me to raise my hands up high and what a cowinky dinky LOOK at the police car behind me with flashing lights too LOL!

I was walking while my mom took this 4th pic which appears VERY DARK. As you can see you can barely see my face haha. At least you can see a bit of my smile :-). Btw once again, I'm new to blogging, so please feel free to give suggestions. I need all the help I can get. Tips would be helpful.

And last but not least folks...introducing mi mama :-)
Isn't she cute? I LOVE HER. I get many laughs being with her always.
