Rooftop Adventures - Sunset Colors



So me and my friends started out our last weekend together by heading to Laguna Beach to an incredible rooftop bar with delicious mojitos and sangrias to watch the sunset.

Trending - The high-low, Mullet Skirts!

Do you have a preference for maxi or mini skirts this season? Well, both are being carried away while their counterparts, the combined high-low, mullet skirts are coming in to steal the spotlight! I definitely fell in love with the new style when I first saw it. They bring such a fashionable touch to both the recently trending maxis and minis. I have just one black mullet skirt in my closet but have been dying to purchase another one in a bright color to wear this season. Hopefully I run across the perfect one soon!

You can find them in long or short styles like the ones below, I personally love the bright pink one! But, I have to say you got to wear them with high heels or preferably wedges to achieve that very striking look! And if you happen to run across a mullet dress with a significant difference between the length of the front and the back, please consider it, they are so flattering!

TTYsoon!

Summer Resolutions

Who says resolutions are only for new years? I don’t think so. Therefore, I have decided to make a list of my summer resolutions. I guess you may just call them goals, in the end I’m not sure of the difference between both. I've always had a good idea of what I want to achieve throughout certain periods in my life but I have never decided to write them down. People say checklists are a helpful tool to keep yourself organized and even though I’ve never really been a fan of to-do-lists, I’m hoping this one will be different and will keep me focused throughout the summer. Maybe you should give it a try as well :). Anyway, here it goes:

1. First and foremost, to spend lots of quality time with my family and friends in order to enjoy my time at home to the fullest.
2. Write on my blog at least 4 times/week, which is not a problem because I love doing it and it’s my own way to vent.
3. Start doing exercise regularly, however, seeing that I can’t even ride my bike or run on the streets when I’m in Honduras (I appreciate life too much & don’t wanna risk it), I probably should hit a gym.
4. Figure out what do to with my life once January 2012 comes… (no more denial phase, in the end it has got to happen :s).
5. Read the entire manual that came with my camera and learn what every single one of those buttons does (they must be there for something).
6. Read the fashion illustration book I bought and start practicing again.
7. Continue to improve my Italian, by finishing an Italian romance novel I’ve had for some time and watching Italian movies.

I leave you with some photos from when my friend took me to the shooting range on my birthday, it being my first time there I must admit I was a lil nervous. I find it kinda funny that I still don't look like a bad-ass even when I'm armed haha.

Firing my first shot, just about to be scared by the very loud sound it makes

Him showing me how to load the gun, in case I would ever need to

Definitely not a bad-ass photo but at least I was making the officers laugh haha

Not a fashion related post but I thought I'd share this experience with you all. I know this is not your typical shooting range but have you ever gone to one?

Popping Summer Colors!

I've had this Zara skirt for a while and I really love the colorful pattern it has, and the pockets are a definite plus! However, as beautiful as it is, I've only worn it once (that I can recall) as I couldn't find a belt to wear with it and I didn't like how it looked without one. Finally, during a spring break shopping spree when I was up north around San Francisco I found this cream colored one and thought it'd go well with the skirt, along with the wedges I had bought a few weeks before. So here is the look I finally came up with for that amazing silk skirt, so excited I'll be able to wear it more often now! Perfect pop of color for this season!

Btw: I just designed the new blog title you see at the top, let me know what you think of it? Hope you like it! I'm working on improving my blog, changing the layout a bit, maybe the colors, and I'm also thinking of some exciting new content to add to it! Including some DIYs! Let me know if you have any ideas of what you'd like to see! :)












This look is also on lookbook.nu so if you like please hype it :) Thank you!





Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!


Ciao!
