Block Out.

2011-05-31T21:36:00.000-07:00

What I wore to church this past Sunday.

Thakoon for Target dress I got for $9. Swedish Hasbeens for H&M. Marc by MJ purse.

Turn it Up.

Turn it Up. by missericas@gmail.com featuring short shorts

Extra Bright I want ya'll to see this.. Here are some brights that I am craving at the moment. I just ordered the blue shorts on lulus.com and was surprised to see the exact ones on Top Shop through a Polyvore search. At Target yesterday, I found the most perfect color blocked dress by Thakoon! And for only $9! It was from the last collection one with all the Target Go designers who contributed one dress from their line.

Just a Touch.

2011-05-04T23:54:00.000-07:00

What a gorgeous day, definitely had a taste of summer today...too bad it will be short lived..Another addition to the bright bottoms stack. These shorts are from H&M for only $10.. I actually wanted the trouser like pants for $10 bucks but had no luck finding my size at every H&M I ventured to. Shorts will do.. =)

Hasbeens

2011-04-24T23:57:00.000-07:00

Went to the S.F this weekend to shop for a wedding coming up and get dibs on H&M's Swedish

Hasbeens. Pretty impressed with the level of comfort but a drag to put on and take off. So delighted to have them! I found this Tucker dress brand new with tags at the Goodwill for $4 a couple months ago, and the crochet knit was thrifted also for $3!

Spring/Summer shoe line up.

Good Friday's

2011-04-15T22:58:00.000-07:00

Taken today and last Friday. Last Friday hung out for dinner in Palo Alto then ventured out more for some dessert at Beard Papa's in a city I have never been to which led me to this down town museum to take some pics. Nothing special on just liked the scenery we were in..

Today I got these minty green bottoms pictured in the first pics. I was looking for some peach colored ones but these are equally as cute..Looking forward to stocking up on bright colored bottoms for spring..

like these.. coral, red orange,

green and pastels!Mango skirt and Topshop pants...

Fresh cut & color

2011-04-13T23:32:00.000-07:00

I was long over due for a cut and some major touching up on my roots. My long time dear friend has been doing my hair for so long and she is always is amazing especially with my plentiful head of hair! She did my usual roots and my ends always seem to lighten up themselves so she decided to accentuate them and lightened them up a tad more. Layers were brought up and bottom layer evened out. I always love the feeling a fresh start. =)

Since I have been so into lace and lacey scallop trim detail, I am so glad I held on to this white top from H&M I got 5 years ago! Came across some great finds this weekend..I got these shades and black lace trim top at H&M both for less than $20.. could not believe the top was on sale since I just bought the dress version of it in white a month ago!

Sunday Afternoon.

2011-04-03T20:32:00.000-07:00

wow. no blog love for 2 weeks! weather has finally decided to act right. i am so happy i finally got my first pair of spring sandals in the mail on friday! they were on back order for a whole month! they are so comfy and got a bunch of compliments when i wore them out today. contemplating if i should get the second pair in black or pewter.. for $59 why not! after church i went off and spent sunday afternoon shopping solo since my boys dread the thought..and this is what i wore..

Which Way.

2011-03-13T23:34:00.000-07:00

I get this voyager/traveler feel with this hat. I bought this hat last year for a Halloween costume but it didn't happen. I find myself buying hats but never wear them! I found these velvet bells on sale at UO and I wish they were not so long and a different material, considering velvet bells are not easy to wear and are not transitional for spring. The price paid are worth the keep, and they pictured well with the rest of the outfit. Hope everyone had a good weekend, I did, despite losing an hour from springing it forward! On the brighter side, having an extra hour of sunshine is always nice!

Let it all fall down.

2011-03-06T20:40:00.000-08:00

I have been wanting to take pics at this waterfall for some time now but I just wanted

to photo an outfit that felt just right with the setting.. I got this no name lace cardi on lulus.com about a month ago , if its sold out you can find it here nastygal.com
These bell bottoms are my absolute fave right now. They are so comfy and light weight, they also give that thinned out elongated effect. The two together are living perfect

hippie harmony.

So hot for hippie, I finally purchased these striped American Gold Bells that I have been obsessing over for a while. They offered a 10% off coupon which softened the blow a little.

And to match, today I found these Cooperative suede chunky wedges from urbanoutfitters.com but so bummed they are not available to ship immediately! Wah!

Lets get high waisted.

2011-03-04T21:33:00.000-08:00

purchased these high waisted pants monday. tried em on with this random top found at marshalls for next to nothing! so thrilled its finally friday..excited to go shopping tomorrow. although i prefer just to shop aimlessly i am actually shopping for something. looking for a dress. its a special occasion at church and my hubby always offers to buy me a new dress for it. i hope to find a soft maxi similar to this. this is from last years erin fetherston for juicy couture holiday collection.

Be Mine.

2011-02-14T23:27:00.000-08:00

Valentine's eve after dinner with my the fam. My parents are so sweet they wanted to spend their V-day as a family and asked us to join them for sushi at our fave place. My hubby, son a I spent our V-day on Sunday. Those pics will follow.. Got festive with it and threw on a burnt red-orange sweater and paired it with a sheer polka dot blouse and topped with some fur..it got sooo chilly tonight and will soon welcome some rain again!

Wearing everything from Urban Outfitters, except polka dot blouse is H&M.

Spring Like.

2011-02-12T21:12:00.000-08:00

Photo shoot number 2.. Location was just around our neighborhood. Cherry blossoms are making their presence known and it was my husband's idea to take shots with them. It was so warm I had to throw on something spring like.. High waisted denim shorts and a floral, flowy cardi thing.. I am so amazed at what a lens can do and of course my husband's camera skills that just keep getting better. I discovered the beauty of Raw images and all the wonderful things you can do to them on Photo Shop as you can see! But there were shots that were so on point they needed nothing. I am loooving that my husband just wants to go every where and take pics! As a surprise he even bought us a family membership through Groupon to the Botanical Gardens in Berkeley so we can take pics for my blog! Sooo sweet! Tomorrow we are going to be in the city celebrating Valentine's at our fave restaurant!

Testing 1-2

2011-02-12T20:21:00.000-08:00

First stop before testing out the new camera lens was to file our taxes. After we got that accomplished we had lunch and stopped by a little boutique I love called Sway that was right next to the tax place. Didn't find much this time but did come out with this necklace. I found my boys taking pics at the park across the street. It was a gorgeous day and we wanted to advantage of it and play with camera. So we went to another park by our house and did a second photo shoot. Next post...

Shine your White.

2011-02-09T23:24:00.000-08:00

Spring like weather causes spring like tendencies. This chunky white sweater from H&M fulfilled my want for a camel colored one I saw on Forever's site a while back and it sold out fast! It's scary wearing so much white! I must be extra careful! I got this lace cardigan in the mail today! Found at lulus.com last week and I slept on it for a few days and then they sold out on my size! So took a chance on a large and thank goodness it worked out fine! Today I also received the pro Sigma lens the hubby bought and he and I are both excited to test it out this weekend and turn up the quality on some blog pics! yay!

Ring on it.

2011-02-02T22:04:00.000-08:00

Last Friday my co-worker asked for my style/fashion expertise for a party she had to go. I was flattered and we had it. One of our stops was this huge Asian owned store called Pretty in Pink. They had a wide selection of clothes and accessories. Similar to Forever 21. They actually had some Forever 21 things with their price tag on top..weird. I was soo happy to find a bunch of cute rings including this finger trap ring which I also got in gold.. I love it and will def pop in again for the jewelry!

Laced & Laid Out.

2011-01-21T20:41:00.000-08:00

Fell victim to boredum, which led to dress up and some self photography. Later in the evening got my hubby to snap a few body shots as well.. Usually I spend my Friday afternoons shopping some where, but lately trying to discipline my habits... Some of my last purchases are these shades and lace shorts. The coat was a present from my hubby for our Anniversary in November. Wearing it makes me feel like a teddy bear and I could snuggle in it all day. Smitten with the fur and lace combo here. Big shout outs to Lace, Crochet, Fringe, and Fur, I love u.
