I'm Back! And updates!

Hi everyone! I am so sorry I have not blogged in a while I went on a few vacations and had a lot of hectic stuff going on these past few months and haven't really had the time to blog or anything! But don't worry, I'm back now and brighter than ever. Look out for even more blog posts, some How To's, and winter trends!

 First off, in October, I went to the oh so beautiful Hawaii! It was my second time and hopefully not my last! We went to the beach almost every day, since our hotel was right in front of the beach, went snorkeling in the sandy mesmerizing coral reefs, rain forest hiking, which was a blast and truly a great experience, and shopping of course! There were many little quirky markets and stands and we went to almost all of them since they were a pretty good walking distance from our hotel! We also had some exotic and authentic Hawaiian food such as poi, kalua,  lomi lomi, and my personal favorite, which was this famous bakery called Leonard's Bakery which had the most mouthwatering heavenly malasdas, which are kind of like donuts, except ten times better, and pao doce which is Portugese bread. I had a great time at Hawaii and guareenteed be going back soon for those malasdas! :)

 In late November, for Thanksgiving , we went to the most magical place on Earth, yes, Disney world in Florida! I went with my family and we had been looking forward and planning this trip for quite a long time. We got the parkhopper ticket which means we got to go to all four parks: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom. It was so exciting and delightful and I felt like a little kid again, looking at the castle there, watching the parades, going on all the rides, and eating nothing but junk food! So if you do go I highly reccomend going to all four parks, despite the prices, beacuse it truly is worth it! I had some great memories at every single park and there is always something for every age! This was such a great bonding experience for our family and will create the best most unforgettable memories! You are never ever ever too old for Disney!

Fall 2011 Fashion styles and Trends

Hey everyone! So today I wanted to talk about fall. I think fall is one of my favorite seasons because you can wear sweaters and boots, which are my favorite clothing items! Also, fall fashion is usually quite comfortable and warm. So today I wanted to post about the key fall fashion items for this year!

The first item that is a must have for this fall is cable knit sweaters! I love cable knit sweaters and how there is so many styles and colors and also that you can wear it with basically anything! You can wear it as a jacket/ cardigan or just as a sweater!

                                              Metallic grey cable knit from Forever21 ($29.80)

Next item is riding boots! These look great with skinny jeans and give a sleek chic look. Also known as equistrian boots, these boots usually go up to your knee and are made of leather.

 Black leather riding boots, Zappos, ($79.85)

Also a key staple for this coming fall is the varsity jacket. You can wear this with basically any outfit to make it a little more fun and unexpected.

Las Vegas Shopping!


Hi everyone! As I mentioned before in earlier blogs, I went to Las Vegas for the weekend, mainly to shop! :)
Anyways, I went to The Fashion Show mall in the heart of Las Vegas and I was absolutely giddy and skipping around! There were so many unique stores as well as some common stores. It has over 250 shops and 7 department stores. But the most memorable part of going there was shopping at the biggest Forever21 in the world! Yup! When I saw it and started walking around, I was so excited and ecstatic! There were two stories of     clothes after clothes and there was also a big room only dedicated to accessories!
Other stores I went to was a Betsey Johnson store! I got so excited when I saw it because I never saw a STORE of Betsey  Johnson items! It had the most adorable and unique items, such as a bright full pink dress, crazy jewelry and much more!
Here are some pictures of my Fashion Show experience down below and the link and address!!

My Fashion Haul!

         Hey, Elle here! Today I am really excited to show ya'll my little fashion haul! It's not really that many items but I feel like these are going to be worn a lot and they were at a great price!

The first item I got was from the biggest Forever 21 in the world! (details about that in next post!). It's just a beautiful turquoise cable-knit sweater for $15.80 that is really "in" this fall and will look good with anything! I especially like to wear this sweater with shorts(or skinny jeans) and military boots for a super trendy-looking comfortable outfit!                                        



The next item I got was at a outlet store named Epilogue. It is a basic light pink cardigan that I think will look great with jeans, or my favorite, floral shorts! I would just wear it over a tank top,buttoned up ( as shown in the picture) or with a matching shirt. I think it looks great with the shorts since it has accents of pink and the whole look just looks so girly chic! This item was a great buy since I got it for $10.80!



I got this next item at Macy's on sale so it was a really great price! They are a pair of light pink sandals with a bit of a wedge and adorable silver charms! And for $7? How could I resist!
                                                           


Thanks you so much for reading! Please comment below leaving me ideas for my next blog post or just ur thoughts on my blog/this haul!
xoxo,
