It Smells Like Flowers Outside & It's My Birthday!





Happy Wednesday Everyone!

The rain has finally ceased here in California and i'm definitely starting to like this place again. My mood just isn't the same when clouds are looming and an umbrella is a must!

 Today is my bday and I couldn't be having a better day! I'm blessed to have a wonderful family and beautiful and caring friends who all worked hard today to put a BIG smile on my face :)

  I wore this to work, I know the skirt is a little short for my office job but it's my birthday and I didn't care. To be fair I added my FAVORITE Ralph Lauren blazer to cover up any unprofessionalism that might be peaking through. 

 My mom is so cute...She sent me a birthday card with a big button on it that says "princess"...Inside she put "Megan, This worked when you were 6 and it will work when you are 26, Happy Birthday Princess" LOL! She was right...the pin rocked my world today!

 Tonite...Seafood at my favorite joint called "The Boiling Crab"....Yum

Smile Party

I am aware my lil smurf has her eyes closed...we threaten her all the time with double sided tape to attempt to keep them open because most of the time this is the outcome. She still looks adorable. 



Dress: Macy's
Shoes: Lulu's
Gel Manicure in Red...Still going strong :)

Hello Everyone!
  Sorry for my lack of posts this week...I spent the last few days finishing up my crazy hard class, planning my bday festivities and just trying to figure some things in my life out....sometimes that requires you to step back, breathe and reevaluate. 

   I spend the month of March celebrating my birthday and hitting up every dance floor available. My besties and I decided clubbing was in store for the weekend so we ventured out and bar hopped all over. I'm so lucky to have the most amazing and supportive friends in my life, its a constant good time that never fails to put a smile on my face. 

  Because we were going to a club and dancing I decided a short dress and wedges were the best bet. My legs don't hurt nearly as much the next day with wedges and I am able to hang on the floor the entire night without to much feet pain. Oh the joys of being a lover of heels. 

 Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!

Sorry Doesn't Always Cut It






Jackets: Some Small Store in Tahoe
Shirt: Love Joy
Jeans: Rivet De Cru 
Shoes: Shiekh
Belt: H&M
Ring: My mom and dads wedding band
Nails: Gel Manicure...Hopefully it stays for the 3wks


Hey hey everyone!
  Man it has been a crazy sad few days with the Tokyo tradgedy going on...I'm glued to CNN and just hoping and praying that things return to a somewhat "normal" for them soon. I have a hard time blogging and doing happy things when there is such a crisis going on and peoples lives are completely changed forever. 

  Tragedies as such always give me a BIG reminder to be extra grateful for everyone you come across and especially the people you love. Life can change in an instant and it is far too short to dwell or worry about petty stuff that wont matter in a day or month. So smile today, be grateful you awoke and tell someone you love them. 

 Spring is rolling in and i'm excited to try some color blocking, neon nail colors and even some blush/nude palettes! 

 Hope everyone has a great day!

Make It Take It Girls




  Hello Everyone!
   Another busy week for me with work and school when all I want to do is blog and think of the next best thing. I am currently in a class at school "Sales and Event Promotions"....SO time consuming...But I have learned SO much...any one else in fashion school? or studying marketing?

  These shots are from the make up shoot I posted about a week ago...My roomie does AMAZING makeup and I had so much fun doing shots for her portfolio. We were lucky enough to get some of all four of us being silly...I think they came out cute. My friends are the best ever!

Hope everyone is having an awesome week! Thank you for all the sweet comments on the last post...back to fashion this weekend!

Vest: Macy*S

Jewelry: Vintage
Sunnies: Paul Smith
Shoes: JS Dany

Hola!
I was SO excited to shoot outdoors when I got home from work....got everything ready...set up my DSLR and tripod...headed out...and of course...the fluffy clouds were covering my light.....so I waited...then sunshine!....went to turn on my camera...NO BATTERY....BOO....

So here is some shots indoors with my Canon...which I love...but isn't nearly as fun as my Nikon.

I LOVE this dress I have had it for many years and it was one of my first vintage finds in California...it has postage stamps on it...Awesommeeee! 
These shoes shoot me up to about 5'9...the world looks a bit different that high...I wish I was that tall...

Yay for Friday! I am trying to find something fun to do this weekend...thrift...beach...food?! Who knows...the possibilities are endless around here. 

I just want to say a big THANK YOU and Hello to all of you that take the time to comment and visit I truly appreciate it!
