summer time

It was everything. It was freedom. Being free. Just out there, nowhere, nothing, youth.

me last summer, vintage skirt worn as dress.

addicted.

My love and I took these pictures last year, and I really do love them so much. I'm missing him like crazy right now because he is gone for 2 weeks at a military school. :( The only sucky thing about the army? It's always taking my baby away from me! grr. Only 9 more days and he'll be back :)

los angeles.

This was on the second night in California, I don't want to post behind the scenes pictures of the Revolve shoot yet....I wanna wait until the outfits and pics are actually up on Revolve's site! But I got these shorts at American Apparel online a couple of months ago they remind me of a pin-up girl and I love pin-up girls....and I got the shirt at H&M while in Los Angeles. I can tell I'm going to be wearing it a lot. There is nothing better than a soft baggy super cute t-shirt. Ahh. I love it!

Oh and didn't Katy Perry look so freaking cute on the MTV movie awards? She has the most amazing style. I love her. And her new song....I love it, makes me wanna be a California girl even more. :)

On our way to California

Day 1 of California. It was so much fun! We went to the beach at Malibu and then decided to go to the Santa Monica beach. We got to see and go to the Santa Monica municipal pier, which was tons of fun....we even rode the ferris wheel :) Then I got to go to American Apparel, for the first time ever. And gah....I'm so jealous of everyone who gets to go there often. It was amazing. I'm in total love! (The next day I got to go to H&M, Zara, and Urban Outfitters for the first time ever....and I'm also super jealous of everyone who gets to shop those stores reguarly. Such amazing stores!)
After that we went to the city walk and ate at Bubba Gump and did some tourist shopping, haha. It was a blast! I plan on uploading day 2 maybe tomorrow or the next day. And I just have to say, I really had the time of my life at the Revolve clothing photo shoot. Everyone was so nice and I got to wear and put together the coolest clothes and shoes. I was in heaven. And I totally fell in love with the whole aspect of fashion all over again. And I also fell in love with California.

california dreaming.

All these pictures but one is from johnnysbird. I love all of his photographs. They are genius, raw, and so beautiful. I thought I would share some of my favorites with you all. I'm headed to Los Angeles, California tomorrow!! Meep! I can't wait to hit up the beach and then go shopping.....and then help style and be in a photoshoot. Man, I must be dreaming. This trip is going to be so amazing. I've never been to Cali before, do any of you have any suggestions on what I should do while there? I'd be happy to hear them!!

my un-birthday!

Yesterday I went out to eat with my mom, hubby, and 4 of our friends. And they decided to tell everyone it was my birthday (which it was not....haha) it was a lot of fun. After that my mom, 2 of my girlfriends, and I went to watch Sex and the City 2......and I was very disappointed in the movie :( It wasn't as good as I expected which really bums me out. blah. After that we went to the hookah bar and then we went to a karaoke bar. Ahhh, such a perfect summer night :) My top is from Hollister....I LOVE it! I will have better pics of it later!
