This past Saturday I went to see Twilight: New Moon with my boyfriend. We went to eat at Applebees first because its right next to the theatre (their Jamaican Freeze drink is delish!) and then we went to the movies about 45 minutes early to wait for New Moon.

The big question everyone has been asking about this movie is: TEAM JACOB OR TEAM EDWARD?

OR

I read all the books before the first movie came out in less then one week! If you have seen how long each of these books are (at least 500 to 600 pages each, if not more) you can see the dedication I had with finishing the series. I love all these books which of course are way better then the movies, BUT I still enjoy the movie.. I HAVE to be team Edward!

Sorry to any "JACOB" people reading this but, if you read all the books you can see the connection between Bella and Edward is inevitable and almost like a magnetic force. The writing and description of their love is gorgeous. If you haven't read the books you really should they are enticing.

Did you see the movie? read the books? what are your thoughts?

I hope everyone's off to a great start to their weekend!

I felt like making a quick run for Bubble Tea which I love and I was trying to figure out what to wear. One thing I love about Fall/Winter is wearing over sized sweaters with stockings or leggings. I'm sure a few of you share my passion =)

I love this sweater which is probably like 20 years old, my mother passed it down to me. The mix of colors is so funky and you can definitely play around with different ways of wearing it. Being that I was in a rush to get out of my house I wore it with all black basically and added some red laces to one of my boots as an extra touch. My hair was my next issue and I decided to do a side braid, they're such a cute hair style.






Sweater: Vintage, Boots: DP collection, Clutch: Afaze, Stockings:Strawberry
My makeup is really simple here. White along the inside and inner corner of my eye and a light pink on the ends of my eyes, black eye liner on the bottom of eyes and a little on the top edges. I used Maybelline lip gloss which I've been pretty smitten with lately, I couldn't seem to find the name of the color unfortunately.

Lastly I will be updating my blog role within the next few days, If you would like to be included just let me know on a comment.

One of my Brothers put me on to this awesome Japanese website bijin-tokei which means something along the lines of beautiful person clock or beautiful person time.

I was on the site for a while and saw that for almost every 3 minutes there is a different girl holding a sign with the time. Not only does he take their picture but he also ask for there: birth date, home city, blood type, height, occupation and favorite website.

I'm not sure what the purpose of the site is because I cannot read Japanese (so hey if anyone can read it enlighten me please) but I personally think it's intriguing because every 3 minutes I get to see a different outfit almost like a Street Style blog. On top of all of the coolness already included on this site they offer an App for the I phone so you can use it as a clock.

Make sure to check them out,I took a few page snap shots to show some examples:







I went out with my girlfriends recently to dance and have a good time. I came to realize the most important things to me are being happy with the people around me and being able to express my art which I do through blogging and various other ways.

There is a boutique near my home named Beverly Boutique where I purchased this lovely half sequin one sided dress with a strong puffed shoulder. I wish I had a better pictures but you will be able to see enough detail.

Do what you love. I hope every ones been having a great start to there week.

Yeah my friends they are so beautiful

Last Week I picked up this face moisturizer RareMinerals from BareMinerals. I am actually new to face moisturizers, luckily I've always had really good skin and never had to buy anything.

My Mother has always been pushing me to purchase one because she says I have to start taking care of my skin at a young age to avoid wrinkles, I'm sure I will thank her for this one day. I've heard friends complain about drugstore brands, about how some are heavy or may feel oily or smell to strong.

The Bare Minerals Moisturizer is great! Its very light and leaves my skin feeling so soft and refreshed! The lady whom worked in the store told me to give it a little while for my face to get use to it but I didn't get any bad reactions to it at all. I only use one squirt of the bottle and its enough for my whole face.

Here's the product description in case you're interested:
