Good Morning;

I have been doing a lot of work planning out new designs for the blog & creating a brand for the blog and the Etsy shop that I have been working very hard on & will be announcing the grand opening date in post later this week! Yay! I'm so happy & excited :) anyways, also you can expect much more frequent posts from now on & as well as some new post content topics too. I'm gonna be doing a bunch of work to this blog, most importantly regarding it's not so cute current appearance! Lol I only have myself to blame for letting it  get so unmanageable ha.

Well I just wanted to say good morning to my readers & post this selfie of me in my hello kitty bathrobe & pink fuzzy slippers & morning cogarette!

New Etsy Shop - Coming Very Soon!

I have been working very hard on producing items for the inventory of my upcoming Etsy shop. I recently started taking photos of my items to start getting them ready to be posted in my shop, but before I decide to officially do it I wanted to post a sneak peak of my products to my blog and my Instagram profiles. Let me know what you think! And I hope that once my shop is ready that you will take a look for my grand opening! Alright enjoy!

OOTD #1

I'm not a newbie when it comes to fashion. Thanks to my mom I have been always been around clothes and fashion and current/latest toutfit trends. Growing up I I had developed my own taste related to fashion at a young age, I've always been very outspoken about the clothes that I chose to wear. I've always wanted my outfits to be noticed but for all of the right reasons, and still today I can still say the same thing about what I wear. So today I decided that I should start posting things regarding fashion on my blog for the very first time. I think it might be a nice & refreshing change that my blog needs. So today I took some photos of what I picked out to wear. I just got this lovely faux fur colar coat from a vintage thrift shop, and I have been patiently waiting for the day with the perfect weather for me to get to wear it, and today was the day! Yay! Well I hope you like my outfit as much as I do, ha. Enjoy!

My Current Craft Project - Mini Travel Album

I feel like the worst blogger in the world right now.... I have the worst issue with updating my posts on a regular basis, and I don't know if I can ever fix it and be able to write a few blog posts a week for my blog, but if I want to have any success with this then I will do whatever it takes to be a good blogger, right? Right! 

Okay moving on.... So I have been working on this awesome craft project for a while, and even though I still have some more work to do on it before I have actually completed it, I couldn't help myself from having to share it and post pictures of it on my blog, well what I have created for it so far because it's got me so excited that I wanted to know what you think of it so far... I am very curious what your opinions are so let me know!

And the pages that I photographed are in a random order just so you know. Anyways, I hope that you enjoy the mini Travel Scrapbooking Album I am working on. This is my first one ever, and if it goes well I was thinking I could even sell it when it's all done. Who knows. Anyways, ENJOY!

Practicing Graphic Design

Recently since I got my new iPhone, everytime I've gotten bored I noticed that I tend to download Photo Editing Apps & I indulge myself in editing photos & creating graphics & designs, etc. Some of my past designs I really had been proud of, but my more recent ones are nothing special, I see them more as practice & beginning stuff, like stuff I made when I just first started using some of the Apps & I was still akward at using it. Anyways, I wanted to post them on here just for show. Maybe someone will like &/or appreciate one of them, but I highly doubt it! Lol even I think they kind of pretty much suck ha. But I do promise to post some of my better looking and interesting ones that you might actually like in the future I pinky promise!

Oh and I have made a serious commitment to post more frequently on this blog & actually create a brand for it & totally work on improving its physical appearance cause I know that it doesn't look presentable right now! Ha.

My Dream Style Hippy Closet

My style has evolved quite a bit since the time I began my blog & writing post for it... I used to dress mostly hippy and casual and I would get more dressed up and take photos, but now I dress more girly but plain, in tee shirts and jeans. I feel like I have no more clothes to wear! & not only do I feel like my closet is empty but I feel like I do not dress myself up like I used to anymore either and I do not like it. I miss my old hippy style! I think I should try to add more hippy styled clothing to my closet, I think it would be nice. So here are some hippy outfit photos I have found for some inspiration! I hope you like them too! XOXO

February Writers Block

Recently, I have been having a hard time blogging for some reason, it's like a bloggers block of some sort, but I have been lurking around & reading other blogs, lots & lots of them! I also have been crafting like crazy lately, but it feels like I'm just freaking stuck! I just don't know what the heck to do! Anyways, hopefully I can snap out of this craziness & get back into action. I need to start doing my own stuff instead of just being behind the scenes.

I made this cute Travel, Paris graphic too! Enjoy :)

Wishing I Was Anywhere...

In the world, instead of being here (in Phoenix, Arizona), sweating my butt off in this hot hell hole. Here are some lovely examples of some better places where I would rather be right now....

Vintage Flower Power Inspiration

I have a major love for Vintage Floral, it can be anything meaning patterns, clothes, designs, or actual Vintage looking flowers! It's all lovely & beautiful to me! As you may already know, this is definitely not my first blog post about my love for Vintage stuff that I am inspired by. Previously I have posted Vintage Spring Inspiration, Nostalgia & Crowns Of Flowers, and this one its also about my passion for Vintage stuff & my inspirations Lovely & Pretty Things, they don't all have the word vintage in the posts, or the title, but when you look at the photos they are all meant to give off a Vintage-y sort of feel about them!

So I hope you enjoy them & you get inspired with the vintage goodness!
