Hi everyone! Hope your weekend is going well so far! As of now, I am officially on Spring Break (YAY!) but I still have loads of homework to do:(.
I would just like to talk about the shirt I made. In my fashion class, my teacher had us do screen printing. A process where you draw your own design and burnt it on to a silk screen. It was very time consuming due to the fact that we only had 45 minute sessions to do the whole process.
Although it was time consuming it was a very interesting and cool new thing I learned.
Hopefully I will have time to publish more posts now that I am free (kinda)
Thats all for today!

All The Little Things

Blouse:Calvin Klein (old) | Jeans: Hollister | Shoes: Vince Camuto (old)

Necklace: Loft (old) | Lipstick: Topshop Rio Rio | Bracelets (right top to left bottom): Macy's, Juicy Couture, Michael Kors, Nordstrom

Happy Valentines Day everyone!! I hope it was a good one. My day was very long and consisted of 3-4 hours straight of homework. Yay...but I got a lot of cute little goodies from people. In relationships its all about the little things that count, the smiles, the laughs, etc. On this blouse there are also a lot of little details that make the garment more special, the buckles, the buttons, etc.
Just last night I went to my schools basketball game for CIF Championship for the girls and they were playing against a deaf team. I thought it was so amazing that even though they don't have one of the five senses, they still were able to overcome it and were able to use all their other senses to play so well (even though they were not able to hear the buzzer). The team was very inspirational and have a lot of emotion and compassion when they talked even though they were using sign language. I don't really know why I just wrote that, but I just felt like sharing :) It was a very good game.
Anyway, back on the blouse, I really, really love it. All of its details make it so much more interesting and unique. It is a basic with a twist and can be paired with so many things to make a cute outfit.
I have to go now.
Bye and Happy Valentines Day!

A Color Story: Soft Pinks

A Color Story: Soft Pinks by leahla featuring a pink diamond ring

Because Valentine's Day is so close, I can almost smell the date I wont have. :P (I think that is how the joke goes) In honor of the day of love, I decided to go with a romantic soft pink opposed to a bold red (partially because I used it last moth). This shade is super cute and girly and reminds me of Taylor Swift for some reason. This pink is also, in my opinion, welcoming spring ( I know... it sounds weird). Pastel is also going to be really big for spring and this blush tone is also a nice alternative to the bright and crazy pattens that have been going on this past season. That is all I have for tonight! I hope you have an eventful Valentine's Day, I have a test that day a date with some unfinished homework. I know...I still am making bad jokes. 

Have a good weekend!

Take Me To Never Land

Blouse: Loft | Skirt: Free Hug | Shoes: Nine West (old)

Collar Necklace: Nordstrom B.P. | Spike Bracelet: Nordstrom | Chain Bracelet: Juicy Couture | Watch: Michael Kors

"Take me to Never Land" Wendy once said to Peter Pan...I think. This ensemble was supposed to be posted last week during Super Bowl time, but I was buried under two HUGE essays that I had to write, and yet again, this weekend I have to finish two more essays. Yippi-ki-yay! I really am in love with this shirt from Loft, both the color and the stripes. I paired the blouse with these leopard heels to mix different patterns together and I think it worked out very well. The black skirt helped keep the look solid and not so crazy, and as usual, I have on my lovely golden accessories.
Have a good weekend!

I hope everyone had a lovely long weekend! I know I did:D. As it is coming to an end:(, I quickly pulled out an outfit together and photographed it in this amazing warm wheather. I have recently been super interested in these striped body-cons (thanks to my cousin who always wears them :)). And luckily they have been everywhere! If you are looking for one I definitely recommend H&M. And the Hunters, oh how amazing they are. I got them last year and love to bring them out in winter and fall...even if the weather is warm and there is no rain :P.  I hope you have a nice day tomorrow!

A Color Story: Purple Pleasures

Purple Pleasures by leahla featuring a dip dye shirt

Purple has been infatuating me for a while now so I decided, why not have it be the color of the month?I also just painted my nails a lilac color just a few hours ago, what a coincidence! Personally, I like deep, rich purples as well as soft, pastel purples. If you decide to go with a rich plum purple, it will warm up your skin tone. Purple can virtually go with any color and can also easily be dressed up or down. If you are wearing a single dark shade, neon purple accessories will make the attire so much more interesting. Have a nice long weekend!

Skulled

Hello Everyone! I hope 2013 has been treating you well! I cant believe this is my first post for the new year ( I know, a bit- more like very -delayed). Since I have been hanging out with my very trendy cousins for almost a week straight, I delved into the whole skull trend (they really made it look so well that I had to try it out). And honestly, I am loving it! It may seem as though skulls are very lethal but don't worry, they are all fake skulls. Ha! I have such a poor sense of humor...whatever. I have been super busy now-a-days that I rarely have any time to blog, which has caused me to be neglecting this poor site :'(. I have plenty of outfit ideas in my head so now I just need to shoot them and post them all. Hopefully I will have another one up quickly. Well that is all for now, thank you so much for stopping by.
