update your bookmarks!

2012-09-16T14:45:00.000-07:00

So. I had a bit of a problem with my blog. Long story short, my domain was stolen and all my links were redirecting to the "new" www.lulapalooza.com, which ISN'T mine!

It was hell trying to get a piece of my blog back but I did, so if you still want Lulapalooza on your reading list, all you have to do is follow those three easy steps. Just add http://lulapaloozatheblog.blogspot.com/ and it'll update it!

Will be posting new things very soon!

workin' it out in the sun

(this would be our way of stretching)

We have had WONDERFUL weather here in D.C for the last two weeks so me and my girl Izzy were absolutely thrilled to break out our shorts and short sleeves and pretend to work out outside the gym.

Good weather does change everything.

Oh hi, here's a little outfit post

2012-03-14T08:49:00.001-07:00

Just wanted to pop in and say hi for the first time in five years! I've been neglecting this blog B

ADLY because my head has been completely in the clouds lately and because my college transfer application took over my life for some time.

More pictures very soon!

wishing you

2012-02-14T16:18:00.000-08:00

a mucho happy Valentine's Day (or night)!

the weekend and a little note to you

2012-01-27T14:09:00.000-08:00

Oy people! I know I've been ~~kind of~~ really absent from le blog and it's not because I don't love you (believe me, I do) but just because I've been having a hard time organizing thoughts and ideas. I have a lot going on, mainly my college transfer application to MICA, getting an internship at the end of the semester etc etc.

Oh and classes which unfortunately just started.

I have been pinning like there's no tomorrow though (gotta give me some credit for that).

I'll leave you with this simple little note, a note that has been my motto for a few months now and that I intend on living up to.

bidding farewell to Lisbon

2012-01-18T11:19:00.000-08:00

Well helloooo! Behavin' yourselves?

I just got back to Washington (three days ago...ahem) and it's definitely no easy task getting back into the groove of things. I still haven't unpacked because everything in my suitcase smells like Lisbon. Denial much? I don't think so.

New Year's shoot

2012-01-03T10:32:00.000-08:00

I spent New Years with this group of crazies at Meco, again, one of my favourite places in the world, and after a bombastic night of fun out on the town we decided to hit the beach the next day.

As you can see, we had a splendid time jumping around.

Starting the year with Sangria!

I can honestly say that Lisbon is and will always be my favourite place in the world. And I say this knowing that I haven't visited every city in the world.

Sorry for the lack of updated folks! I'm never in one place long enough to edit pictures and write things on this little blog (although I use Instagram a lot) but I've promised myself to try to keep this baby runnin'!

My life here consists of going out, taking long walks in the city, window-shopping with my peeps, eating at the most delicious restaurants and overall just having fun. It's the good life!

Lisbon looks gorgeous when the sun is setting. The other day I went to the Baixa, downtown, and the light looks so perfect falling on this old city. The air here is absolutely amazing, the streets just have such a comforting smell. Hard to explain!

It's fortunately not as cold here as in the States and I'm so happy I don't have to walk around with layers and layers of sweaters.

How was your Christmas?! Mine was pretty fabulousssssssssss.

Happy holidays people!

quick update

2011-12-20T14:03:00.000-08:00

Well hellooooo! I feel like I haven't updated this blog in years.

Portugal makes time fly.

I got here last Saturday afternoon and what do you do after a 17 hour trip? YOU.GO.OUT.

I was a little jet lagged but nothing crazy, I think the excitement of being here just makes it disappear.

I've been running around everywhere and staying at Franny's house which is one of my favourite places in the WORLD. Franny's also one of my favourite people in the world.

I come here every single summer and it's just one of those houses that bring back so many splendid memories. It's almost 10 o'clock here and we're having a dinner party with some friends SO I'll have to get off my butt and join the fiesta!

Happy Holidays!

packing and -soon- leaving on a jetplane!

2011-12-15T14:12:00.000-08:00

Hello hello hello! THE day has arrived. I've never had such a hard time packing in my life; my suitcase weighs 25 kg, aka 50 pounds or so and half of what I'm bringing with me are gifts. Pray that they don't make me pay for the extra kgs at the airport.

I still have some things to take care of before I leave SO I will leave you with this breathtaking video.

It sends shivers down my spine!
