Baby Lambs of Spring



Every day when I drive to school I pass the Agriculture/Horticulture Dept. and watch the baby sheep run around. Today I thought I would share them with you. Aren't they the cutest? There are at least 50of them running around and making noise, I had to stop and take pictures. Baby animals always make me think of spring and new beginnings. Speak of beginnings, its now officially the weekend!

This little guy has been practicing that pose.



Chomping at the weeds


I dindnt know sheep had birthmarks...

Spring in the Winter

Just another strange winter weather kinda day here in California. It always looks like it will be cold in the morning, and ends up steaming once the sun comes out. So I decided to go all out with my new pieces: Silver driving mocs. and turquoise ruffle tshit. This top is kinda overwhelming for me because Its right there in your face! I usually like to wear earrings, however I thought it might be a nit much. I just wore once piece of jewelry and let my face and the ruffle top be the feature of my outfit.
here is the ruffle top on me

and here it is on the model


See what I mean it is very overpowering


Silver driving mocs(from payless :)

One of my fav. bangles from the limited, reminds me of outerspace.

The silver lining


I recently got these budget friendly driving Mocs from Payless and just noticed how similar they are to Jcrews Lizzie driving Mocs. However they are wayyyy cheaper what do you think? Good enough knockoff? I wonder if they are as comfortable as the $100+ Jcrew pair.

Dexter Parker Buckle Moc-Payless Silver -$27.99

Lizzie metallic-leather driving mocs metallic gold $128.00

If I were a rich girl...

I would love to own these pieces from "DVF" Diane Von Furstenburg, however Iam not. These three items are my favorites from the DVF spring line(found on Nordstrom website). They are all bold and caught my attention in more than one way.


Diane von Furstenberg Wedge Slide $260.00



Diane von Furstenberg 'Marisa' Camisole $198.00



Diane von Furstenberg Scarf Gown $695.00

A new aproach

I got a catalog from Jcpenny and for once in my life was excited about something that was featured in it. I was inspired to go to the store today and look for the Ruffle top. I was sucked in for almost two hours because everything was on a major sale. I purchased the top in two colors and almost bought jewelry and two purses, but withheld. Hmm maybe I will start shopping at Jcpenny more often now.

So charming


Charm bracelets will always be around because they are so versatile and personal to whomever is wearing them. You can get them pre-made or custom make your own. That's the beauty of a charm bracelet, it holds a little symbol on your wrist that reminds you of that one time...whether it be a birthday,wedding, graduation or a new baby. you name it and there is a charm to go with it.
Juicy COuture- beach charm bracelet price unknown.
Missoni Aqua Solid Perfume Charm Bracelet $50.00

Tory Burch Charm bracelet-&295.00


bright lights, big city charm bracelet-Kate Spade-$275.00

The Color wheel beach house

This is one bad-ass house that I could see myself living in during a summer vacation at the beach. Some of you may think this is a color overkill and others maybe love the attention all this house wants from you. That's exactly what I love about homes like this, they stand out and make an impression like a piece of art that you can live within.
