We Party, We Live it! that Good Life I'm gettin it




Hey Beautiful Lovelies!

So, I've been wanting to get the lastest issue of marie claire ever since I heard Miley Cyrus was on the cover because I wanted to read the story! However, every time I went to check somewhere for it it wasn't out yet, so today I finally saw it out and so I purchased it along with GQ! GQ was just a random purchase; I didn't know Channing Tatum was going to be on the cover or a story was going to be featured of him in it. I only get GQ every once in a while depending who's on the cover. Anyways.. just wanted to do a quick post since I've been really getting into posting a lot lately this past week or so. I will do another post for you guys tomorrow or maybe even later tonight depends on how awake I am, since I was up early from 6am today and I'm going out to see a movie with a friend. It will probably be late when I get home, so I might just get to bed as soon as I get home. I hope you enjoy! If you purchased these magazines, let me know what you thought of the two interviews : Miley Cyrus / Channing Tatum! :D

Have a lovely rest of the day!

Ramble Update!


Hello Lovelies!

I am sorry that I didn't do a post last week but I have been ridiculous sick. I wanted to do a post so anxiously today! However, what I wanted to do my post on I can't until Tomorrow or even maybe Wednesday! =( I am going to post up about a recent shampoo I have bought and just tried today. So, I will see what the results of my hair turn out like tomorrow! I will talk about it in a post this week. Also, just to mention this shampoo isn't something you would use regularly because it can damaged your hair. On another note, I also have some items that I have purchased recently to post up as well so I think I will get to that tomorrow indefinitely! See you tomorrow for a post of some sort for you lovelies to read/view! :D

Random Talk - Update!


Hello Beautiful Lovelies!

I just wanted to do a post that was just me talking about different stuff and whatnot because I feel like I have been slacking and definitely not following through on the focus of this blog which I said I was going to do more regularly and haven't been doing. My attempt of regular updates has been a complete FAIL! I am definitely sorry for that and there isn't really any excuses to be used I guess but then again I am sure some can understand life gets busy and hectic at times, so yeah. I have a lot a lot to do and keep up with for this blog I have all the things I wanted to show or mention on this blog photographed and there awaiting me on my computer to be posted for you lovely people to read. I will start with the most recent things and work my way back to the past things that I never got on here. Another thing that I need to follow up with is the book Bobbi Brown : Beauty Rules Book I didn't ever finish reading that book and that's on my list of the next book to read completely. It's a must finish to be fully reviewed since I will have to wait for the next book that I want to read to review which will take a while to come to me. As for other things I have been lacking on is going to exercise.. sulk face. I know, I know I need to get back into this routine I was doing super good and then work took over and I haven't been for 2 months now which isn't good because all the hard work I put into toning my body and feeling healthy is going down the drain slowly. However, that is all happening on account of me and I have myself to take into account for that no one else. So right now I am just going to make a list things that I need to do for this beautiful blog for you lovely followers that continuous read or follow religious but is not updated regularly.

SHORT-TERM GOALS
- Read & complete a full review of Bobbi Brown's Beauty Rules Book
- Update once a week to start off to work my way up to follow through to regular updates
- Latest things I've purchased
- Outfit looks from me to represent my style
- Book reviews that I find interesting to mention on my blog
- Random update rambles
- Tell people : get the word out about my blog
- Reviews in general about things movies + fashion + accessories + travel .. etc.
- Update Talk Boosters a lot a lot more because I think those seem to be a BIG hit on my blog!

LONG-TERM GOALS
- Update regularly
- Fashion style of other people I find interesting
- Future Q & A for my followers
- Maintain this blog with things that represent me and my personality
- Keep the different aspects I have added as pages to this blog to give you lovely beauties the view of what I feel, like and enjoy!

I think this is pretty much all I have to say another than Taylor Swift is coming to my hometown in August for a concert which is 2 days the Thursday & Friday and I am very lucky I got tickets to go to her concert. It's going to be an amazing experience, so I hope that in August I will have mentioned about this topic on her for you lovelies to read! I also say No Strings Attached with Ashton Kutcher & Natalie Portman and that movie was so good! I loved it and I can't wait until it comes out on dvd, so I can have that to watch over and over. I will write a post about that as well but I will wait until it comes out on dvd because that way I can mention all the important things I want to! :D What else? Oh yes, another movies I want to mention about as well is Frankie & Alice, very good movie. I shall talk about that also but probably more so incorporate it in as a Talk Booster. I think this is all I have left to mention today. I wish you beauties a lovely morning/day/night which ever time you are reading this.

True Whit


True Whit by Whitney Port! =)






So I got this book finally! I was waiting a long time for it to be released and then found out the date it was to be released wasn't so at all. However, that it was out since January 21st, 2011! Anyways, besides the point .. the book is very interesting. I think it's a great book especially when you're first moving out on your own by yourself and have your own place. There is so many little different bits and pieces to her book. As again it's an easy read for sure but I have been reading it over the course of 9 days now. I know you guys are probably thinking another girl from the hills with a book again! To be honest hers and Lo's are worth reading and I won't be reading any other Hills cast mates books. I know their is Lauren's Style book but her book doesn't intrigue me to want to be it or read it at all. I've skimmed through it so many times when I go to the book store and it just doesn't sit well with me. Ok, I think that is a little too much information on other things and a lot less on this book I'm talking about. So the things and different aspects of the book I liked are definitely ..

The Basic items you should have in your wardrobe
&. Great pair of fitted jeans preferably dark because they're a bit more "dressier" and can be worn to work

&. The little black dress .. need I say more?

&. Simple white, black or heather gray tanks/tees

&. A leather jacket

&. Cashmere knit scarves in any color

&. Black boots [the little black booties in short, medium, tall or over the knee who doesn't love booties?]

&. A black or navy blazer! [a definite must have at least one in my opinion]

&. Simple heels 2-3 inches [again probably most of you will opt for black but a splash of color is very nice as well to make your outfit pop]

&. A sleek pencil skirt [the classic, elegant, beautiful skirt that makes you look wonders and works both ways for day or night -- SCORE!]

&. An accessory that adds polish [ I myself love accessories they're the best part of completing your outfit. I preferably though like gold for my jewelery than silver. Not only that it allows for you to bring out your amazing personality that compliments your outfit.]

Some other things worth mentioning that I liked from the book was 'How to throw a party' which was very intriguing because she gives you ideas and guidelines if you wanted to do that but didn't know where to start.

When it comes to the section on Dating she gives advice on wowing guy giving gifts, the L word and meeting the parents. I definitely like what she said and agree with her "Love is between two people; it's meant to be private." One thing about meeting the parents that it's a must for every girl and this is now the second time I have read this is bring a gift. Bring either a bottle of wine, flowers or a small dessert along with dress conservative - nothing sloppy, sexy, low necklines and the skin tight. You want to make a great impression.

Whit's 6 signs it's getting SERIOUS
- He calls you his "girlfriend".
- He asks your opinion.
- He's willing to make sacrifices.
- He gets green with envy.
- He's fast-forwarding ti the future.
- He wants to be with you.

Whit's 6 signs it's OVER
- Absence is making the heart grow colder.
- The fire has fizzled.
- You have nothing to say.
- He doesn't want to make future plans.
- You don't think happy thoughts
- You're constantly fighting

The last thing that I am going to talk about from the book because there is a lot of information and interesting topics and such is the last chapter called: Designing woman which are 7 steps she gives you and are very well true and I think the bold ones I highlighted should be followed no matter the career choice or things you want to accomplish in your life.

1. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
2. THE BIG IDEA
3. BE TRUE TO YOU
4. YOU GOTTA HAVE A PLAN
5. BE READY TO DEAL WITH MONEY, HONEY
6. SPREAD THE WORD
7. DON'T GIVE UP
I definitely recommend this book it's very enticing and gives you a lot of ideas and guidelines to help you with things. I think this book is especially good if you are living on your own for the first time like I said before.
