brown hair don't care.

Finally over this cold, waaahhooo!!

I love this sweatshirt, as the title of the post says "brown hair don't care." ;) The weather was beautiful today so I wasn't too hot in it, but the shorts also helped with that a bit.

I'm back on the blogging grind!

achoo. cough. cough.

my life in a nutshell:

1. medicine, water, tea.
2. my animal print turban that makes me feel better.
3. my caretaker that makes me feel better.
4. more tea.

my lack of posting this week is due to the fact that I have a terrible cold. wahh (yes that is a baby cry).

my days have consisted of sleeping, online shopping, sleeping, and drinking tea. what a lame way to spend my weekend off :( Hopefully I can kick this thing pretty soon and get back to my usual self, being sick really sucks.

Hope everyone else enjoys their weekend.

rock out.

tee & shades: Urban ; denim: Zara ; flats: Steve Madden ; watch: MBMJ

I originally got this shirt for my bf and it ended up being too small for him, so I kept it for myself. I cut the sleeves off so it would have a little more "edge", if you will. Still in love with my gold jeans, I will never get tired of them.
I got my hair cut the day I took these pics, and I desperately needed it. I love getting my hair cut, I always feel like a new person when I leave. Some people dread it, I would get my hair done every week if I could.

Have a sweet Sunday all! :)

don't let the days go by.

This is a sort of "feature" on my favorite place, World of Beer(WOB). Having two days off in a row has its benefits and one is beer drinking ;). The bf and I seriously cant get enough of this place, were sort of regulars which makes me feel like I have a drinking problem, heh.
Anyyyway, I love my DIYed bleached black denim! If you ever wanna do it, just make sure whatever you're trying to bleach is cotton, otherwise it won't work. I just mixed half bleach half water in a bucket and dunked my pants in. I think they turned out sooo cool! :)

did i stud(der).

shirt: Loft ; shrug: Anthropologie ; shorts: c/o Omen Eye ; boots: Urban Outfitters ; lipstick: MAC "Rebel"

I know I know these are the baddest shorts you've ever seen. I was so stoked when I won a giveaway off one of my fav blogs, A Go-Go, and the prize was any pair of shorts from the very talented Omen Eye. Check out her site if you haven't already, she is awesome and all of her pieces are one of a kind. I can guarantee you will find something you can't live without. Thank you again to Jen from A Go Go and Alana from Omen Eye, you girls rock!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend :)

how to: tasty snack.

Kale Chips.

so I figured since there are all those New Year's resolutions out there to be healthier I would share one of my fav healthy snacks, kale chips. They are so quick and easy to make and a great snack to grab for instead of regular potato chips.

What you'll need:

A package of Kale (however much you want)

Olive oil

Salt

A baking sheet

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
Rinse kale to clean off any dirt
Rip off bite sized pieces of leaves and spread on baking sheet
Drizzle with olive oil
*note: too much olive oil will make the chips more soggy rather than crispy
Sprinkle with salt (add any other spices you'd like)
Pop in the oven for 8 to 12 minutes (or until edges are a little brown and leaves are crisp.)

Remove chips from baking sheet and enjoy! I promise you will be pleasantly surprised with this healthly alternative. :) They really are delish!

For Christmas I got the DSLR that I was dreaming of and my baby bro got me some awesome filter lenses for it. We were messing around with them when we took these photos, this star filter makes the sun look amazing!
I've said numerous times I love cat eye sunglasses and these brown ones pretty much never leave my face. It doesn't make my BF too happy considering he got me Ray Bans for Christmas a few years ago and I haven't worn them in a while *making the oops, sorry - face* The last pic is my fav, it looks like I got some serious air, heee :)
