Crazy in love!!!

First of all, I wanna say thanks to all of you who checked out my friend's pics and liked them...I told him about you guys' comments and he was really happy I did that for him, so happy that he is officially making me his manager. I told him I will even make him a blog if he takes pics for my outfit posts and he agreed to it..so yay to that. I have also decided that on my every post I will put one picture taken by him (a pretty picture of course) to start out the post all nice and happy..so here goes today's pic...ohh I also wanna say, sometimes he has the best captions for his pics and I wonder what made him come up with it :P


        Ok, well moving on to more important things now..I went shopping few days ago, didn't buy a whole lot of things just couple tops and necklaces and a bag from F21. I didn't have money in my bank account but I absolutely HAD to shop because the last time I shopped before that was in May and I was dying and I felt like I had nothing in my closet to wear. I love it when I spend very less money and still get a whole lotta things for that price....that makes my day so much better. Like the other day, me and my husband went grocery shopping and to me it looks like we grocery shop a lottttttt and every time we do we spend at least a 100 bucks and we are calorie conscious people so it's not like we buy food like crazy you know but I have no idea how we end up spending that but so that particular day we only spent 18 bucks in Walmart and when we left I told him, "do you realize that this is the least amount of money we have ever spent in Walmart?" and as usual he made a weird face..sometimes they are funny but a lot of the times they just piss me off..lol..(I am so glad he doesn't read my blog because I have a feeling he won't like what I write about him :P) 
        But ya back to my story, I have been wanting dog tags and I don't think I have ever mentioned this before but my husband is in the military, when i started dating him I asked him for his and he said he would give 'em to me but he never did..So one day I am watching the show "Army Wives" (I don't know how many of you girls have ever watched the show) and Roxy (one of the wives) is wearing a mini gold dog tag necklace and I fell so much in love with it...I have been searching for them for a while and FINALLY I was in F21 the other day and I found them..they have "dream" written on 'em but will do for now.. :P Here, check them out:

Aren't they so freakin' cute? :P
            But anyways, I was looking on their website because I need to really do some serious accesory shopping and I can't believe the variety of everything they have on there. If I was still living in India, I don't know if I would find half of these things.. :P (oh ya I am an Indian, born and raised and I have only been in US for little more thn 5 years) These necklaces I saw on F21 website, they are for "fashionable" people and you'll see what I mean by fashionable..

A shoe :)
A Perfume bottle :)
See what I mean by "Fashionable"..lol. There are lots of other cool stuff that I really want but I will wait...I have a feeling that I am going to win lottery real soon..lol..that's what I keep saying to myself. Ohh one more thing, since the 80's and the 90's are coming back, the wide legged pants are so much in style right now and I wanna get them but I don't like the one's they have on Forever21. If you guys come across something, please do let me know and I also have been looking for a long maxi skirt...preferably black or pink!! I would really appreciate it. Well this post is getting to be a little bit longer than I thought so I will wrap it up and talk about other things later. I would like to know if you guys have ideas on how to pair different necklaces together..I have never tried it but I would like to and look good in it too :P 

Have a good Sunday ladies, until next time...

Pictures of you, pictures of me!!!

I was thinking what I should keep the title of this post and then I remembered I used to be in love with this song "pictures of you"..I can't remember who sings it and I am too lazy to go on youtube and find it right now. Today I want to talk about photography a little, it's not my hobby or anything...I just like posing in front of the camera but by friend/roommate is an amazing photographer. He doesn't do this professionally but he is planning on doing it soon someday and we were talking about him making a blog yesterday. I know he is not going to do it because he is lazier than I am so here I am promoting his work. So you know how I said I just like posing, well here are some of my pics he took..every time he has a camera, I like standing in front of it and taking pictures :P I am sure he gets annoyed by it sometimes but ehhh..he is my friend so I think I get the right to annoy him :P Let's check out the pics alright?? :)








What do you guys think? I love the pictures he takes and a whole lot of my friends do too.. He doesn't have a website or anything but he does have a facebook page..now I know everyone nowadays have facebook so you guys should check the page out and may be like the page (just like it even if you don't like the pics..lol). It would mean a lot to me and I know it would mean a lot to my friend and also may be you can pass on the word to other people. :) This is his page Mosaic Photography, please show some love :)


Thanks a lot for reading even though it wasn't a fashion related post but photography and fashion go hand in hand, right? :) Have a good day ladies, until next time.. :)

My love for Vintage!!!

I don't know why but lately I have been in love with vintage things, so much that I told my husband when he buys a house I wanna make it all Vintage-y and his reply was "ummm..okay..LOL". Was that supposed to be a yes or a no?? I feel like when people start their replies with "umm" and then say yes, it's not really a yes but that's just me. May be he is ok with it..then I said he can have a typewriter in the study (coz he mentioned to me the day before that he wanted a study) and we can have one of those really old record players and buy records for them and he said " wow..people will think we didn't learn about new technology". I mean how cute it would be to have this typewriter...


I have been thinking a lot about decor and stuff too lately. I think this is like one of the side effects of marriage, you go from thinking about shoes and clothes to appliances and vintage wall mirror behind the dining table or may be it's just me..Yess!! I have been thinking about vintage wall mirror for a long time and finally 5 days ago I dragged my husband to this flea market where they sell antiques too and found a mirror along with 2 wall candle holder thingys..The look pretty awesome, I wish I had a pic to share but "someone" didn't put them up yet even when I told him to do it a couple times....

Anyways, back to business and lets talk about what we usually talk about...FASHION!!! YAY :D But before that, on a side note, I think I should add something about "Decor" in my blog description too because I feel like I will be talking a whole lot about that stuff....OK now back to business seriously, since we are talking about Vintage I would like to share this article I read here. Some of you might have already read it before because it ain't that new.. but it talks about how we should start hunting for vintage clothing item for next years trend now and blah blah...well you girls can read it for yourself...My main "mission"(I felt like using the word mission..hehe)..yea so my main mission is to share with you girls the Vintage clothes I found...see now whenever I have to find something that I know I won't find on regular basis, one place I go to is Etsy. Hence, most of these things are from etsy. Let's start...

1)
From the store: thingsofsplendor
 2)
From the store: MonkeyMash
3)
From the shop: LuckyRabbitShoppe
4)
From the shop: Stellahsgroove
(All the images belong to the shop owners)

These and there were some more others that I found, I just didn't feel like putting it all on here and make the post huge...coz I think a lot of people don't wanna read it when the post is big unless it's interesting and I for sure don't think I am that interesting. 
So that's all for now ladies. Let me know if you girls find any cheap, pretty clothing items from somewhere. I think I might buy some or not, I don't know yet. 
Have an amazing day lovelies...until next time. :o)

I plan on being back!!

Wow I have been so out of the blogging world, it feels weird...But I really plan on being back now. Hopefully some people missed me..hehe....A lot has happened to me since October 20th..since I had my last post. I got married, it happened all pretty quick but he is an amazing man and I am really glad to have him in my life...

 The "I do" pic :o)

We got married in a court house, saved money since we didn't have it :P We also got a cute little puppy, he is 5 months old now and we named him Alfie...He is the cutest thing I have ever seen (well all pet owners say the same thing about their pets :P) but no he seriously is...He is a handful though but we love him...

I call him my little monster :D

So ya, that is what's been up with me??? I hope all you girls out there that I follow and who follow me are having a good time and enjoying the summer..For some of you, the school is almost about to starts..it stinks I know but I sometimes wish I was still in college....hopefully next year I ll be able to finish where I left off...Well, I just wanted to say hi today. I haven't decided yet what I wanna write so I will think about it tonight and have something tomorrow....and I hope I keep getting all of ya'lls love. Have a good weekend ladies...Later :o)


Xoxo

Alice in Fashionland..!!!

I feel so good right now because after a very long time I am writing posts 2 days in a row..woohoo..I haven't done that in almost 5 months now. I feel productive today and I think I would rather work on my blog then taking a nap...Although I haven't slept more then 3 hours last night. and this is why, I went to a shooting range couple days ago and it was indoors, the ventilation in that place was horrible and I got all the gun smoke in my mouth. So I have this really bad sore throat and my doctor friends seem to think that I might be allergic to smoke, which I think could be true but I still find it funny considering I used to be a smoker.. :P But anyways so I hate feeling like this right now..

So ya I found this editorial, well not found exactly I have had it in my thing for a really long time but since I haven't been blogging much I just didn't get the time to write about it. I am really hating being slow on all the editorials but I think it's a good think because I am pretty sure I am not gonna like the editorials that come out in Fall. Anyways, back to the editorial I was gonna talk about, It's called Alice in Wonderland starring Natalia Vodianova and photographed by Annie Leibovitz. It was featured in Vogue US December 2004 issue. I love Annie's work, outstanding. I think she is my favorites besides Mario Testino and Patrick Demarchelier. I am pretty sure most of you have seen these shots before but still there is nothing wrong in looking at them again if the pictures are pretty right??














I think the pictures are amazing. I like them a lot and part of the reason is because I wish I was a model in a fairytale..haha.. I hope you guys like them too.. 

Have an awesome day ladies...until next time :-)

Her corsets are so creative and pretty. Check em out:

Ohhhh so colorful....

It's gonna be Fall soon already and every store I go, the Fall fashion is already in and I can't seem to find any clothes I like. That makes me hate Fall/Winter so much and then it makes me so sad because I don't know what I am supposed to wear if there is nothing in any of the stores that I am going to like. It's just so horrible. I hate wearing grays and blacks all the time so even in winter I am always searching for colors. Now I know I probably won't find colors a lot so I think I am just gonna make myself happy but writing posts with colorful pictures in them. This is an editorial from Interview magazine featuring Sasha Pivovarova and photographed by Craig McDean. I love this editorial coz it's so colorful and Spring like and looking at pretty editorials with colors and graffiti makes me happy. I also really love the pieces from Balenciaga's Spring collection.





Hope you guys are having a good week. 


♥♥♥
