Trippin ova Tuesday

Here's what:

Lately, I've been trippin ova quite a few things! After graduation I was on thiz whole, "must find grown peoples clothes that can also look amazballs on me all while still looking preppy" kick. (right?!) AND I'm to-TA-lay still on it.

What I must have right meow is:
These beauts. from G.H. Bass. Can be found on their website. (also, please excuse the ghetto iPhone photo)


I see myself wearing these loafers with the Cafe Capri pants in khaki from J.Crew with a button down & sweater vest. Is it completely lame that I luuurrve the sweater vest?! J.Crew also has one right now in stores and online thats way cute! So does New York & Co. for cheap!

My hairs today are curly. I never curl them ever because #1) I can't use a curling iron on myself and #2) I look kind of silly with curly hair! BUT today after running some errands for moms I went and bought a curling iron from Wally World. It's a Remington "curling wand". One of those non-clamping irons! I loved it! It even comes with your own creepy black heat resistant glove


...awesome. So anyways I curled my hairs and actually liked the result. Here is a peek at how it turned out! I may not be the best photographer and in this picture my hair look dirty (it's not!) but you kind of get the idea! Soft, easy to do waves! And if u can't use a curling iron like the bitchy ones with clamps, then I totally suggest this one!!


That's what I'm trippin' ova this Tuesday!

Peace & Blessings

Just Another Manic Monday

...Wish it was Sundayyy.. Or more like Friday! Haha okay too much!

Happy new school year to my teacher friends and also to my "still-in-school" friends!! Woo!! Hope that went wonderful for everyone! And not manic at all!

My awesome day consisted of cleaning (slightly), searching for jobs, making my dream purse online, and making a lowfat WW casserole for momz and me!

Asked momz for a good/scary book to read and she gave me this:


The Dwelling by Susie Moloney. I am totes intrigued and will post updates! I'm hoping that it's a page turner and not one of those books that sits on muh nightstand for a year! Hah! That's the usual.

Okay my lovies, I pray everyone has a great week! More to come mañana :)

Peace & Blessings Y'all

Simple Sunday

Who loves having neighbors from Spain?!! I DO! I DO! So this afternoon, our wonderful neighbors brought over some delish Spanish cuisine! I'm talking homemade (hot as balls!) salsa with cut up limes and tomatoes, and also grilled barbacoa! YUM!



Here is the deliciousness! Food coma brought to you from yours truly.

On a less awesome note--I woke up sick today :( boo!! For now I'm all jacked up on meds and catching up on True Blood. A real simple Sunday for me.

~Keep it real~

Get Stupid Saturday

Heeeeyy! Hoooo!!

It has been one long minute since I have blogged. And now, since I have graduated college (HOOLLLLAA) and am I currently unemployed... I have so much free time.

So, lets get real that is nothing to brag about BUT its a lot to talk about.

Here's how I am doing my Get Stupid Saturday:
1. Hung up my curtains. FINALLY.
2. Sang loudly around my house and made a big deal about how great it sounded to my mom and Broski #1
3. Made cheesy potatoes
and lastly..
4. I'm getting ready to celebrate one of my BBFFFE's birthday, ALEXIS!



This is Ash, Lex, and myself at the last NYE! Sorry I couldn't find a better picture, but I like that she is in the middle!

Lex,
I love you long time and can't wait to see you later!! Reasons I love you include but are not limited to: your laugh and how it makes me laugh, your red hairs, how kind you are, and how you randomly send photos of yourself to every person on your contact list to "test" out your new haircut. So, in short, I love you a lot! So glad we are BBFFFE's (I'll tell you what it stands for later)!

Peace and Blessings to all my real homies,
Alexa
