Hello, all : ). Sorry I've been MIA for a while, lots of things going on, but I'm back for good. On Friday, February 6th, I went out for dinner with the family (California Pizza Kitchen), and then we went to go see Philadelphia Dance Company (Philadanco). They were really good, I was impressed. Whenever I see dancers, I always wish I had stuck with dance *sigh*. But it was a good night.

On Saturday, like I previously mentioned, I did a mannequin modeling event at a local mall. My group did Bandolinos, and we basically sat in the store window for two hours. It was a lot of fun though, especially watching the reactions of the people passing by. And, the two people who work at Bandolinos were so sweet. The event went well, and next up, we have our Spring runway show, and runway shows are always my favorite : )

After that, I went to a party (it was a busy weekend!), and did homework on Sunday. Throughout last week, I just worked on a lot of projects, and I was lucky enough to have a four day weekend last weekend. I did some shopping, since I needed a dress for a dance on Friday. It's semi-formal, so I didn't want to be Homecoming-dressy or party-casual. However, I couldn't find any good dress that was in between, so I settled : /.

Then, today, I received and OVERWHELMING amount of college mail, just those ones you get through Collegeboard when you get you PSAT/SAT scores. I mean, I usually just get a few each week, but lately I've been bombarded with emails, and today, I came home to find this:Crazy, isn't it? This is the most mail I've ever gotten in one day. Could ths be considered harassment? Massive assault? Overwhelm-ation? Haha, okay, I'll stop. My ramblings are done.

Bisous.

Story of a Jetsetter: Part II

After a long flight, Scarlett landed at Heathrow, and took the Underground to the West End where she found a hotel. The dawn of the next day was gray and dreary, but in a colorful Anna Sui frock and sparkly flats, she brightened up the streets of London town. Some shopping at Sisley and Zara and a fresh meal at Pret a Manger took up the beginning of her day, and by the afternoon, the clouds had cleared enough for a beautiful stroll through Kensington Gardens. Satisfied, she strolled around the ... Italian Garden fountains, and wondered which city would be her next destination.


*Sorry I haven't been on much. With my Gov. School apps and midterms all last week, I haven't had a lot of free time...

Hello, loves. How was everyone's week? Mine was very busy, I think I got maybe 20 hours of sleep this whole week. I had a ton of papers do, a fashion project to finish, lacrosse conditioning, and midterms next week.

This outfit was from Monday, I wore it despite all the snow we got where I lived, because I am a part of this group at a mall near me called Teen Board. We put on fashion shows at the mall, and help out with other mall activities. It's a lot of fun, and this is my second year in Teen Board. Monday was our first meeting of the year, and we have a show coming up the first week of February.
However, we usually do runway, and this time, we're doing mannequin modeling, where we basically split into groups and model in store windows. I'm so excited, but I'm kind of scared because we'll be in the windows for 45 minutes each. My group is modeling Finish Line and Bandolinos.

Well, that's all for now, I have some papers to fix : )

Bisous.

Story of a Jetsetter: Part I

She was a starlet named Scarlett. Flawless, fabulous, and fierce, but sick of her monotonous, cliche Hollywood life. At seventeen, she had already cranked out five box-office hits and her last two albums went double-platinum. She was done with the charity galas, the movie premieres, the award shows. So, she grabbed her passport, slipped into a Moschino tunic and a pair of Ray-Bans, and boarded the next flight to London, the Cali sunset fading behind her.



New thing... Thoughts?

A dress, a beret, and a pair of heels...

Post-Holiday Shopping

Roaming the halls of the biggest mall on the East Coast seems like one of the best ways to spend the day shopping after the holidays. However, after playing two hours of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games, and getting only three hours of sleep due to Twilight... well, let's just say that it was a long day.

I spent the morning at the mall, doing returns, and then we went to Jo-Ann Fabrics to pick up materials for the project that my fashion class is working on after we come back from break. I spent about an hour there, and am pretty satisfied with what I got...
Then, my mom, sister and I met up with my dad and grandmother for dinner at Bahama Breeze. Afterwards, I went back to the mall to kill time while my mom and grandma went to do their own thing. It was ridiculously crowded, like school hallway crowded, and I must've seen at least a dozen people that I know. I bought a pair of jeans, but thta was all I bought from the actual mall, for each store was jammed packed, I'm talking about at leats a half an hour just waiting in line to try on clothes and pay for them.

Oh yeah, prior to dinner, I did stop by the Nordstrom Rask to kill time, and it too was crowded, but I found a couple things that were worth the wait. I can't wait until the whether warms up so I wear the skirt sans tights... Look forward to seeing these in a future outfit post...









So that was pretty much my day. How was your day? Feel free to comment. I don't bite, promise : )


Bisous.
