Dreadful

I have a shop on etsy and recently a friend directed us to this website that blogs about the worst etsy finds and omg some of them are hilarious. I mean I feel bad. I know that I spend a lot of time creating my etsy items and I would never want someone to put me on blast on the internet for having bad stuff but some of the items people put up are a little OMG.

Enjoy having a good laugh over on regretsy

Can we just talk about

how much I love graphic design. I could never do it myself but I love the way well done graphic design looks. I'm such a sucker for great labels. I think I've mentioned it before in another post about how I have the nerdiest dogs because their "dad" won't let them have the cool well designed dog food. Anyways, the point of this is not about dog food but about this great little paper store that I absolutely love their design.

French Paper is awesome. I absolutely love their color selection in papers, the graphics of their laels, and etc...

I really want this poster from their website but I'm not quite sure where I would hang it because my walls are backed to the brim already....sigh.




So I'm going to go be a label whore and drool over their beautiful papers and amazingly designed packages.

On Halloween we didn't end up doing anything that was really Halloween-ie per say but I did manage to drag Jack to the theater to see this teen flick. I knew deep down that it was going to be very teenage-y and probably not the best movie but I was in the mood for it.



I didn't love the movie but it was entertaining enough. I liked John C. Reilly's character a lot and he had some good one liners and Selma Hayek was a funny beard growing lady who's bear grew when she was turned on by a man ( which would really suck!) . Over all it was probably a 2/5 stars movie but worth checking out if you like those kind of corny halloween movies that I can't get enough of! One of my favorite corny halloween movies is from the 80's and is soooooo corny but I can't help but watch it every single year is:

Worst Witch







Teen Witch







Oh gotta love those 80s cheesey movies. What's some of your favs? You know i've never seen "pretty in pink". I suck.

Day 3

and all I can think of is shopping... Oh God this is going to be a long 2 months. So instead of concentrating on what I CAN'T buy lets look at what I DID buy before I lost my mind....

I picked up this super cute cotton shirt from Anthro on clearance for $19.95 ( what omg!). Even though I curl my lip at the thought of having 80 degree days in November I do really like the fact that I can buy summery shirts on clearance at Anthro for 19.95 and where them year round. If I did my math correct that is like getting it for free!

Anyways, I digress. So here is my new outfit that is getting me through not being able to shop!

I've personally choosen to wear silver with the outfit because I have more long silver necklaces and I also bought a new ring that I really wanted to wear.



but with the brown/carmel color I could definitely see someone rocking some gold pieces.

So if you see me for the next two months wearing this outfit because I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING else to wear since i'm not "allowed" to shop please don't judge me!

p.s. i did decide to center align my text today. i know what is the world coming to?

Hiatus

Dear Mr. Shopping-

I have meant to talk with you before this but it always seems to slip by. See this shopping thing we've got going on just doesn't work. I've been having a deep love affair with you for way to long and every time I think that we've broken up you lure me in with your shiny packaging and pretty things. Its over.....well until January 1st.

XOXO

Ok...so I'm going to try a shopping hiatus. Not sure how this is going to work or if at all. I'm not going to buy any new clothes, jewelry, shoes, purses, etc...for myself until January 1st! Thank god I only have 59 days left. Phew this is going to be rough.

Happy Halloweenie!

Hello Everyone!!

I'm finally back in Los Angeles after a long month of traveling!! I can't wait to not go anywhere till Christmas....

Couple of things to update on:

1.) I'm joining a blogger's book club. One of my daily reads Jasmine has put together a book club to go to. This I am really excited for because its a way to expand my friend network and its also a way to read more! I'm always thinking that I need to spend more time reading but I always do something else...ahem zuma (which I'm on bonus level 12 and can't seem to make it to level 13 without dying...in case you were wondering!)

2.) Need to wake that lazy bum of a boyfriend up ( its only 7:30 am) and drag him to the pumpkin patch with me! I really really want to get a pumpkin! Even though today is halloween and tomorrow it will be over :(

3.) really ticked off that I totally missed this event again! I have been trying to go to the Dia De Los Muertos event for like the past 3 years and every stinking year miss it! Fark....It was last weekend :(

So on that note lovies. I'm out. ( p.s. I wish I had this awesome spider lace hat from the pic below!)

Please don't hate me!

I haven't meant to be M.I.A. but the days have slipped by and I always put blogging on the top of my list for tommorow.

Today, I took a major risk and bought black nail polish. Currently, I am loving it. I haven't quite cleaned up the parts where I colored over the lines but here's a little sampling of it and my new necklace Jack bought me! Its a piece of Tourmaline dipped in 14k. I love it!




Also, I recently downloaded a new app for my iphone. The camera bag app for $1.99 ( i believe) maybe it was $2.99. Totally worth it and it comes with like 6 or 7 different filters for your photos. I love them all except maybe the fish eye but its probably because pictures of people look a bit bizzare in a fish eye.


Anyways, thanks for still loving me and I'll try to blog more and be a stinker less!

xoxo
