Being that this'll be the last #WOW of the year, I wanted to highlight some lovely personal moments in 2014! I got my my first dog. Our first day with our little furbucket. All my life, I've never understood the love people had for their pets, until I got my little furball. He's my little lovebug and I wouldn't know life without him!...
As the year is coming to a close, there's a few things I'd like to leave (if I haven't already) in this year and not bring into 2015. There's no need for it. It doesn't make anyone's life better. No one benefits from it. Trolling. This needs to stop. Anonymous hateful comments. Snark remarks. Cynical sayings. Trying to cover it up and soften...
I wanted to keep this going because I love the encouraging quotes I find on Pinterest. They're great reminders of what we need to say to ourselves, instead of the nasty voices that are sometimes in our heads. (or is that just me?) Anywho, if you need a mantra of the week, or even just the day, you might find something here. Stay...
Calling all trend fiends, interior designer masters, beauty buffs, and decor gurus! The 2015 Pantone color of the year is here! The coming year's color is... Source: pantone.com Marsala is named after the city in Sicily where Italian wine is grown and harvested. Much like the wine, this deep red hue keeps it classy, but can also have a rustic feel. You can...
Have you ever looked at something and fell in love? Then, looked at the price tag and got so sad? That's pretty much the story of my life. For example, I've wanted a pair of black, stiletto heeled Christian Louboutins (since the beginning of time...kinda. lol.), but they cost way too much to purchase at this time in my life right now. So...
I'm switching it up from the regular #WOW and posting a little #WisdomWednesday well because... I need a little encouragement in life right now. Some days are better than others, and today, tbh, it's a little bit harder to be happy. I'm doing my best to choose to only have positive thoughts and my best is all I can do... right? Well, if...
Anna Kendrick's On the Steps of the Palace for Into the Woods As you've already read, one of my must-see films this holiday season is Into the Woods. While waiting in anticipation, Disney has released a few tracks from their upcoming film that are to die for. Among them is Ana Kendrick's On the Steps of the Palace. I am just amazed at...
GUYS, CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE! Source: wordpress.com I'm the kind of person that likes my holidays in order, so I don't like to listen to Christmas music until the day after Thanksgiving. (I like giving Thanksgiving a time to shine, unlike retail stores, but let's not get into that.) I'm so excited for this roundup of my fives faves so let's get to...
Since it's Thanksgiving tomorrow, instead of making a birthday post, I decided to make this week's #WOW about the ones I am thankful for. :) My Family They're amazing. When I say family... I mean my parents, my sister and her family, my husband's parents, and his sisters and brothers. That's my family. I love them. We might be crazy sometimes. We may...
Today is officially the last day that I am twenty five. Looking back at this past year, I can honestly say that the quarter life crisis is real and this struggle exists. And now, I'm happy to say I survived. When I turned 25, I literally began to question my whole life. What am I doing with my life? Is this what I'm...
It's been a few months since I've been to the movies. But now that the Holiday season is coming up, there are so many movies that I'm so excited to see! Here's my list so far: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 - November 21, 2014 Source: imdb.com I am SO excited for this film to come out. I read all three books...
You already know the drill. ;) Urth Caffé I love this place. I'm obsessed with their japanese green tea latté and d'lox pizza. I don't visit the place often enough because it's not near me. so no matter how hard I try, I always get the same thing. It's just so good, I can't help it! The d'lox pizza is made of mascarpone,...
This weekend will mark a year- a year since Urijah Jay became an angel. One of my close friends had the joy of bringing a child into this world. Urijah was born on June 4th of last year. He loved the heck outta that kid. He made lots of plans for Urijah and him. They were going to go to baseball games, play...
#WOW ;) Okay, here we go! Luca Bella Fine Foods I went to Luca Bella Fine Foods for lunch to celebrate a recent engagement. (Congrats Monica!) It was a lovely day so we decided to sit outside. Located on The Avenue of the Glendora Village, it was a perfect place to lunch and chat. I ordered the cauliflower soup and the oven roasted turkey...
I really don't like getting told what to do. I mean, no does right? For me, I already know it's because I'm humanly stubborn that I just don't wanna hear it. Sometimes though, my buttons get all greased up and are easier to push than usual. My fuse is as short as a toothpick. My patience is lost in Neverland and I'm too old...
Fashion is so forward that Spring Summer 2015 collections are released before Daylight Saving Time ends. I know I'm a little late (more like a month late) in lining up my faves from SS15 shows, but I'm doing it anyway. :) Runways for Spring are always fun for me. One reason why? Because of the florals of course! I know, florals for Spring...
