attack the senses

internet! The internet is still down at the homestead :( so i have been reduced to taking advantage of the wonderful starbucks establishment nearby.
(needless to say its inconvenient, but will hopefully be remedied very soon)

here's some photo-bombing for you that jumped out at me while i aimlessly rummaged through my friend and Glitter Guide's  tumblrs... i am now seriously thinking of creating one for myself.

I am always down for lying on a roof and staring up at God's creation. p.s. check out more amazing photography by Chanelle


I want to do this RIGHT NAO



Nutella&banana crepes, Churro sticks with nutella, limeade popsicles?! YUMMS.
tribal prints+overly glittered nail polish= yes, pleassse

please let me live in one of these   


































entice your senses :)

lots of love

chupacabra

(no i'm not trying to be racist) i want to meet one.

MIDTERMS ARE OVER FOR ME :) but im already too busy with other things :(

so i took the chance last night to try some new recipes from a old recipe book that i found at home. ergo the creation of CHHHHUUUUURRRRROOOOOO chips (*to be said like the FleA)

Step 1: cook up your tortillas...

until puffed up but not completely crisp
good to work with while still warm off the pan

cut tortillas into wedges or strips
combine sugar and cinnamon according to your tastes

fry up your strips until golden brown. Drain slightly of extra oils and then toss into sugar while still hot.
let sit and become crispy with the sugar coat

enjoy warm or cooled !

best to store in a brown paper bag to let residual oils seep out and to avoid crushing

"When you get a nickel from a bum, don't go waste it on bubblegum. put it in your cap! "

Inspiring words from Marge Simpson to Bart. A lovely mother-son moment.

Anyways the thought of purchasing a hat has been on my mind lately, but I'm not sure if it would suit me..so I ask of you, the internet community for some feedback. I think a nice floppy beach hat for everyday would be lovely...

(now for those photos that have inspired this post...)
Love the cranberry color scheme from Gary Pepper Girl
fabulous flowy movement from Beth Jones
Such a cute summer outfit shown at Coachella
casual shopping look from Japan

thoughts? complaints? worth an investment? feeeeeedback. I can't be trusted with my own decisions to purchase things...other than food.

lots of love!

reflect on it.

happy happy happy mothers day to all y'all mothers out thuurrrr!

I thank God for my mum and everything that she does for me..especially the things i dont always see or think about. I realized today that the life of a mother can be some hard work and I definietly do not give credit or love to my mom for all the ways that she has shown me unconditional love over the years.

yes, sometimes I can not stand her nagging or any number of other slightly annoying tendencies, but nonetheless she is just looking out for me and what is in my best interests.



on another note: I finally have internet!
Losing my internet at home for the past 3 days has made me think about how much I rely on the internet for hours of meaningless entertainment, so I have had the enjoyment of going outdoors more :)

sooo what i'm trying to say is: GO LOVE NATURE NOW! stop reading my blog post and go enjoy some fresh air for a while.

I will not as I study for my last midterm...enjoy the week!

lots of looove

melt away, cyberworld

This past week I was encouraged that the bloggers who I look to for fashion advise/inspiration are more than just their home page and styles.  Bulgari chose 32 bloggers to promote their ring for their Save the Children campaign and fundraiser. All of the profits from the rings go directly to helping improve education for needy children which is downright awesome! Even if these bloggers may have done it for more of a p.r. reason, at least their readers are being encouraged to help.

here are some of my favorite bloggers that were chosen:
Cupcakes and Cashmere

Beth of B.Jones Style

The adorable Karla of Karla's Closet

Karen of WhereDidUGetThat
Not to mention their outfits were bodacious!

lots of lovee

procrastination. procrastination is the game..

I am taking a break from working on my take-home midterm to blog because I am tired of flipping through my book and I am undisciplined... mainly just the second one. i should really try to change that..


so i thought i would share my outfit from last sunday! I was feeling gross and bloated and yet slightly inspired by ballerinas. (isnt that ironic? feeling fat and yet inspired by some of the skinniest people on the planet?!)



see? bloated. i believe the root to be from the night before. I did considerable snackin' while i was at the korean music festival. had to fill the 7 hours there somehow... (*p.s. pictures from that perhaps in the next post). I did throw a sweater over so the scandy back wasn't showing at church but i absolutely love this tank that i got from Cotton On! 
back to boring midterm studying! 

lots of stressed love
