I am having major writer's block today readers, so it's the opportune time to feature my celebrity style icon for the month. Sometimes it just happens. Words don't form correctly, I get a little lazy pounding away at the keys on my old laptop. But Margherita Missoni is so beautiful, and so the EPITOME of jet-setter that I'll just let these pretty pictures do the talking. All photos courtesy of google. Enjoy!

I know only one exclamation point in my title is necessary, but three describes my mood much more accurately.



H&M Red Rosette Dress from the Garden Collection

Happy Face

Happy Face ;)


What luck! I still can't believe I managed to track one down.The dress is even more beautiful in person. This picture really doesn't do it justice. The only downside is that it needs to be taken in a bit at the bust, and I have no idea how much an alteration will cost. I bought this dress from a girl in Orange County, and it unfortunately isn't the right size. I sort of knew that before I bought it from her, but the dress is so dreamy I just had to have it! Even if it just sat in my closet and I never wore it, that would be fine by me. Some clothes are just art, and this is a stunning example. I do plan on altering it though because I definitely want to wear it. I need some advice too:
What shoes should I wear? I am thinking nude pumps would be great. And minimal accessories so that the dress itself is the focal point. Any other ideas girls?
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

...In my shower?! Nicole from NV Beauty tagged me and since I loved reading her post, I figured why not? It's a very different tag than what I'm used to seeing, and I like that! But I was thinking, "Is my shower even clean?" Cuz I'm pretty sure you girls wouldn't wanna see a bunch of lime buildup and soap scum ;) Luckily, I just scrubbed my shower so it looks nice and shiny. Anyway, I don't really have much to show by way of pictures so I'm not sure how revealing this will be. But here's where I get so fresh and so clean:

So let's see: An assortment of shampoos, conditioners, deep conditioner, body wash, MAC volcanic ash exfoliator (Love!), a ridiculous bouquet of loofahs, shaving cream (which the bf insisted I use to ensure he won't be rubbing up against sandpaper legs), razor, face cleanser that I want to use up so I can finally buy some Cetaphil, soap, and a sqeegee to wipe down my glass doors. All-in-all, a very small and measly place to invigorate each morning or evening. Definitely not my dream shower. My dream shower consists of marble floors and a HUGE shower head. Or maybe three to get in at all angles. And no hard water, which is what I have. But at least my product caddy is nice.

Oh and one last thing:


A honkin' big bottle of BedHead Superstar Shampoo - sulfate free, the only type of shampoo I will put on my head. I am trying to use only products that are sulfate/paraben free, but am not quite there yet. This bottle is so big, it has its own spot sitting in the corner of my shower.


I tag ANYONE who wants to show me what lurks in YOUR shower!
Happy Weekend!
