VS Fashion Show 2011

So, my fellow internet friends, I have been completely ignoring this blog. You know what? Actually that is not so true...I have been on my dashboard, but I haven't actually written anything on this blog. I have been brainstorming ideas as I walk from class to class at school, but I haven't been able to come up with one, until last night.

So, my best friend and I stayed up late last night to watch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show!! And, let me just tell you now, It was one of the most amazing shows I have ever watched. We watched it for the fashion...okay now you are thinking, "What kind of fashion consists of a bra and underwear?" Your opinion will change after watching it. Trust me. They don't only walk around in bra's and underwear, they walk down that glittered runway in shells, beads, wings, glitter, lace...oh, i can go on forever! The themes this year were roman empire/goddess/old fashioned/medieval times, "Aquatic Angels,"----we screamed at this collection of the show. Probably one of the most amazing moments of my life...I mean THE FASHION.! And, then the girly/punk/teenage Pink collection. Oh, and one more thing, they made KARLIE KLOSS A VICTORIA'S SECRET ANGEL. She is literally one of my biggest idols in the world, I have always loved her and always will, and she is only seventeen and is a Victoria's Secret Angel. That is big!

The show also got emotional at some parts. My best friend and I almost felt like crying at some parts of the show. It is basically every girl's dream to be a VS Angel and as we watched the Angels walk down the runway knowing that they worked so hard for that moment of their own to come just makes me want to cry in tears of happiness. Each girl got their moment to show that they were a VS Angel or model. You may think it is weird that I think this way, but I don't think I am...haha.

All of the Angels are my idols and they will always be, because when they were younger, they just sat in front of the television watching the VS show, but now they are on the VS show, showing of they're wings!

Also, there are two ways to look at the show. The first way is to say, "Wow, this is amazing." and the second way to look at it is, "This is making people become anorexic." (<<I don't look at it this way, because  I see the show as a fashion show, and not a show where they walk around "showing off how skinny they are.") But, my opinion of the show may be different from yours, just don't be mad at me...haha. ( :

Okay, well go look up the show on youtube or something, because you are missing out if you don't.

Eyes and Smiles

Something about those eyes.
Those crisp yellow eyes.
Like a vampire,
Creeping for blood.
For the blood of my love.


Something about those eyes.
The inner core of those sweet yellow eyes.
Like the inner core of Earth.
Filled with fire and determination.


Something about those eyes.
The mixtures of colors.
Like a forest of autumn leaves,
Forming a tornado in your soul.


Something about those eyes.
The glare of excitement.
The depth of your love.
The rhythm of your mind.


Something about those eyes...



Something about that smile.
That sweet sculpted smile,
Like a drawing of happiness.


Something about that smile.
The creases and shape of that beautiful pink smile.
It penetrates my soul,
Trying to swallow my love.


Something about that smile.
The shape of your smile,
Seems sculpted to perfection.


Something about that smile.
The sensation of your voice.
That rolls off your lips and into my soul.


Something about that smile...

me

Bub face to the air.
Thousands of images run through my mind.
Rookie creates imagination.
Hide my voice from surroundings.
Dress up my closet.
Hold the future in my hands.
Watching the hours of time go by.
Write the wanderings of my imagination.
Dream about the deep blue sea.
Take a hold of the image of a flash.
Feel the keys underneath my fingers.
Count the how to get theres.
Dance around my bathroom.
Dream about my mind.
Research about what seems like light years away.
Skip around in faux snakeskin heels.
Flip through catalogues.
Fill my mind with happiness.
Dream about boys.
Touch velvet.
Watch moving images.
Paint on my lips.
Let mind wander.
Thinking.
Let the music flow through my room.
Landscape.
Develop film.
Thinking.
Take pictures of nothing meaningful.
Absorb milano cookies.
Pet the black fur of Ruby.
Thinking.
Drawing the images of my mind.
Thinking.

November Favorites: Part 1.

I decided on writing a post on my favorites in the month of November. I plan on doing a post each month, but we shall see what time brings. So, shall we start the list of lovely favorites of mine? I think we shall.

1. Velvet.
Velvet has always been my favorite fabric. But the velvet trend has really been seen around town lately! Every store I walk into has at least ten things with velvet on it. Here are some of my favorite things (a.k.a. going on my holiday wish list) that have velvet on it.

Velvet Skirt.

Top with velvet trim.

2. Helen Ficalora Jewelry.
I went to their store in Beverly Hills today with my mom and her best friend. It was amazing.! AMAZING. I fell in love with this ring there...time to save up! haha.(: And the ladies there were the sweetest people.


3. The Ardorous photography website.
This website made by the amazing photographer, Petra Collins, is such an amazing inspirational photography website where some magnificent photographers show their latest work.


4. Plum lipsticks.
I have really been into plum lipsticks lately. It is such an interesting color. The bright sides to it? It makes you teeth look whiter and depending on your eye color (my eyes are bluish gray), brings the color of your eyes out.


5. Blogspot.
I have been addicted to this website lately. It is so much fun to blog! Isn't it?


6. Sewing.
I could sew all day, any day. give me a sewing machine and some fabric and i will figure out something to make. It relaxes and calms me, i just love it so much!


7. American Apparel.
I love how everything is made in America, it shows America that great things can be made here, instead of consuming more, our country should make more!! And, the clothes are absolutely amazing. American Apparel is one of my favorite stores of all time.


8. Tic Tacs.
I am addicted to these babies! I love the orange flavor, its basically the only flavor I eat! Haha. And, I can literally eat a whole box in one day. Is that bad? (:


9. Rookie Mag.
This online magazine is what gets me through my days at school. Looking forward to reading the posts on this website when I get home from school, makes me unbelievably happy.


10. Knee High Socks.
I love socks in general, so when it comes to knee high socks, I almost faint. (: If you don't have a pair, go buy them or something, because every girl needs a pair of knee high socks!


11. Fall/Winter.
I am so happy that it is Fall and almost Winter. These two seasons are my favorite seasons of the year. Holidays, fireplaces....I would say hot coco, or tea...but, unfortunately, I dislike hot coco, tea, and coffee. Why am I such a party pooper when it comes to warm drinks? Damn taste buds! Anyway, I love these these two seasons so much. And in the Fall, around this time, when the trees change color.! Trees are just so pretty, especially at this time of year!


12. Sequins.
I love the sequin trend so much. Sequins go with everything. They make everything better. Sequins are just that amazing.
..................
So, this completes Part One of my November Favorites. I know it's a lot, but I love all of these things so much!

Colors all around

Instead of going to my school's Homecoming Dance, I stayed home, cuddled up inside, listening to the rain which is thundering around my house. I am having my own party sitting on the couch... Anway, I feel like writing poetry. But instead, I will write a blog post, because I have to admit...I am now addicted to Blogspot.

I have been spending my relaxation time on this lovely three day weekend on Photoshop. Playing around with it is just so much fun! I was trying to achieve this kind of picture, by the amazing photographer with the name of Petra Collins.

My inspiration:

My pictures:

remember that this was my first time actually Photoshopping a picture AND I am not the amazing Petra Collins who can take/edit pictures like no other!

Yeah, they're not that good. But, I still love them!

Eleven, Eleven, Eleven

This is probably one blog post out of many writing about today, otherwise know as Veteran's day, or 11-11-11. This encounter will only happen once in eternity. ETERNITY. And we get to live through it. Isn't that just amazing? I honestly think it is. And, on top of that, it's Veteran's day, which means we celebrate the ones that have fought for our country and....well, all kids are happy today, as well. Because, it means no school. But besides no school on this very special day, it is also a day to cherish those who chose to stand up for our county. And I thank them all individually and in a whole. They left their families and everyday lives to stand up for America, and hopefully will be home soon. Thank you again!!

........

And, what makes this day even better? Spending it with your family that you haven't seen in forever. I spent it with my two little cousins and their dad. Their mom (also my cousin) could not make it, but I hope to spend Christmas Day with them all. I can not explain to you how much I love them. My little cousins are like my little brothers that I never had. But, I do have an older brother. Anyway, I love them more than anything in the entire world. I will always be there for them. <3

.........

I am probably going to be writing another blog post before the end of today. But, for now I shall say goodbye.

But, before I go, I want to share a picture of one of my little cousins, Logan, and I.

Logan and me.!
