Flower Power


Can I just say I'm really proud of myself for making my first GIF. I'm giving myself a cookie later. I took these the other day while I got a smoothie with a couple of friends from school at Smoothie King which I go to about 4 times week am not kidding by the way. Smoothie King should really give me an award for being their number 1 customer. I would like to thank my friend Alejandro for photo bombing me also and since the Spice Girls performance at the Olympics brought some good memories we felt the need to go back to third grade and take pictures with our best peace signs pose. Perfect for a Smoothie Ad campaign I tell you ha!

Make over time


So for my styling class this week I had to do a make over on someone. I did it on my mom's co worker Sheyla. I'm used to dressing myself so it was fun being able to dress somebody else. I thought pastel colors would suit her well.

Keep it simple



I'm not the world's greatest blogger but when I do it's so great because it's a distraction from reality and a way to connect with so many others who share my passion. Life is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. The passing of my grandma and aunt both a month apart from each other definitely reminded me that life is short and you never know when it's going to be taken away from you. That is why you should live it to the fullest and not worry about the silly fights, and irrelevant things that we tend to worry about. Don't take it to seriously, enjoy it, and as cheesy as it may sound follow your dreams. My aunt was always so excited for me when she saw me pursuing my dreams and she always encouraged me. In memory of her I'm going to continue to blog because life is sweet and there is so many things to be grateful for.

Anyways, I'm back in school and have a lot of really fun classes this quarter. I'm taking Visual Merchandising 3 where I'm working on my portfolio and creating window displays. Fashion Magazines where I'm coming up with my own magazine concept. Styling I which is very easy but so much fun and last but not least Fashion Show Production which is teaching me all the details on how to produce a fashion show.

For my styling class, we were assigned to create an outfit that was from a thrift store. I was pretty excited about finding this outfit!
