Silent Sea

The other day we had some surprisingly chilly weather in Cali! It was cold and rainy and dreary.....so perfect. I actually got to wear a coat! It's so frustrating that it isn't ever cold enough to wear a coat where I live. Especially since I love coats!

Brandy&Melville knit, Soho Drape Wool Jacket, Enzo Angiolini boots

I got the amazing shredded tights at NastyGal! I adore that site. I recently submitted an application to be an affiliate! Anyways, I'm doing my best to get back into the blogging mode. I come up with these great outfits 2x a week for school but I never have time to take pictures before I have to leave! It's so frustrating! Maybe I'll work out the kinks next semester.

Speaking of which, I changed my major again! First I had decided I wanted to major in Anthropology because I eventually wanted a PhD in Egyptology. However I gave it a lot of thought long-term wise and I decided that even though I love Egyptology it's probably not the wisest degree choice. SO I've settled back on my Bio degree, because I want to be an orthopedic surgeon! So this means lots and lots of schooling. But I'm excited at the prospect of the future!

Denim and Leather

I am so in love with this jacket. Love isn't even the right word- Admire....worship....cherish.....idolize.... it can't even be put into words how much I love this jacket.

Denim biker jacket [storets.com], J Brand jeans, Steve Madden booties, vintage Charles Jourdan sunglasses

Isn't the detail gorgeous? The sleeves have these stitched leather panels that I just adore. This jacket is definitely one of my favorite pieces in my closet now!
p.s. sorry for the grainy picture quality, my dad messed up the sensitivity level when we were in Sun Valley but luckily I fixed it.

Part 3

So I just looked at how many times I've blogged in 2011.....and it said 4.....how sad. I'm really falling behind on this. But anyways, I'll continue with June :)

I graduated from high school! The ceremony itself was in Ojai, and after my family went up to Santa Barbara for the day since it was only about a half hour farther. It was such a gorgeous day!

This is Anne, my friend from Michigan! I love her :)

Forever 21 dress, vintage belt, leather jacket, and Disneyland buttons on my purse :)

such a gorgeous ocean!

After the graduation weekend was over, we wandered around LA for the rest of the time Anne was visiting. We went to the La Brea Tar Pits, the Tim Burton exhibit at LACMA, and Disneyland!!

Nasty Gal top, Cheap Monday jeans, converse

Saber tooth tiger skulls, they had about 900!

STAR TOURS! I was so excited for the re-opening, since it's always been my favorite ride. It was amazing!!! Apparently there are 54 different tracks for the ride, so it'll be a little bit different each time you go on it.

Pineapple float on the Jungle Cruise. Yum.

Forever 21 top, vintage shorts

Tim Burton!

(And yes, that is a Chewbacca backpack)

I only managed to get two pictures before they said no photography was permitted......

Love the LACMA lights! And my mom :)

Part 2 of my seven month hiatus!

So part 2 will consist of the first part of June. June was an INSANE month! I had my first competition in about 3 years, my first time back out since going through the surgery and all that. I turned 18, graduated from high school, and had my good friend from Michigan, Anne, as a houseguest for a week.

So, starting with the competition!

It was only a spin event, where you basically do 3 different spins, so the whole debacle lasted about a minute and a half. But still, being my first time out I was incredibly nervous. I did get some great pictures though! :)

~~~
After the competition, I decided I wanted to have a big birthday party to celebrate my 18th birthday. I actually turned 18 on June 18th :) So I spent the first 2 weeks of June planting about a thousand flowers in the backyard and getting everything ready for the 80+ people that showed up. It turned out to be an amazing party!
