Summer Tunes

     So today is the last day of August and I decided to make a list of all the songs I listened to during my summer vacation. Now I don't know about other people, but I'm the kind of person to listen to one song for about 3 weeks straight without getting tired of it, so this wont be the biggest list of them all but I think these songs are da cooliest. Another thing, I'm also the kind of person to have the weirdest taste in music.. seriously I love all kinds of genres (except for country and rap) so beware of extremely random likes.

1. Baby I'm Yours- Arctic Monkeys

2. Say You Don't Want It- One Night Only

3. Flaws-Bastille

4.Let Her Go- The Passenger

5. Somewhere Only We Know-Keane

6.One-U2

7.Bringin' On The Heartbreak-Def Leppard

8.I Need Your Love-Ellie Goulding ft. Calvin Harris

9. Rock Me- One Direction

10. Do I Wanna Know-Arctic Monkeys

11. I Am Sold-James Blake

12.Heartbreak Girl- 5 Seconds Of Summer

13. Coming In the Air-Phil Collins

14. Wouldn't It Be Nice- Beach Boys

15. Misery Business-Paramore

16. Sultans Of Swing- Dire Straits

17. Keep The Faith-Bon Jovi

18. They Don't Know About Us-One Direction

19. I Write Sins Not Tragedies- Panic! At the Disco

20. Chemistry- One Night Only

21. You Need Me, I Don't Need You- Ed Sheeran

22. Can't Help Falling In Love- Ingrid Michaelson

23. Under The Bridge- Red Hot Chili Peppers

24. Big Jet Plane- Angus Stone.

Hope you got some new ideas from this curazy playlist! (:

Just ordered this!

The Topshop 'Teddy Fur Pea Coat' is extremely similar to Eleanor's Sparkle+Fade Coat. I just ordered this beauty the other day, and I can't wait for it to come in the mail! In the mean time, I decided to put together some outfit ideas to wear with this warm coat for the autumn and fall time.

For the first outfit, I chose a very casual look, especially with the oversized tee. I wanted to keep the monochrome so I chose boots; and for hair, I thought a messy bun would complete the look. 

This outfit I would wear on days where I need to look semi-formal. I chose the Monki grey dress with a Zara basic bag and Blonde&Blonde Cutout boots. I love the accented red on the straps of the purse to give a little more warm color to the whole monochrome outfit.

For this outfit, I chose a very autumn/winter plaid dress from Zara and ASOS high ankle boots. If you haven't noticed, I love maroon and black so I definitely love the pop of color this dress gives off to complete the whole outfit.

Lastly,  this outfit is one for those more colder autumn days. I love the embellished detailing on the sweater. I paired it with the Topshop Moto jeans (aka the most comfortable jeans in the world). This is the look I would definitely wear going to school. 

That's it, hope you liked it (:

Update!

Argh! Haven't been on here in a while-not that anyone cares lol ;___; Anyway, I've been reallllyyyy preoccupied this whole month! First, I've been birthday shopping for 8 people so its been pretty hectic. Second, I went to 1D's concert August 9 and it was by far the coolest concert ever! They came so close and I was literally frozen the whole time haha. Third, I've been getting ready for college! (YIKES! RESPONSIBILITY) Although I haven't even gotten my books or ID card, I've been going to the counselor and actually thinking of transferring early because this school is way to far and I don't know how I'll be able to go every single day at 8 with the traffic and what not. So thats pretty much what I've been up to; I might be doing a haul pretty soon on account of buying cutsie things online and stuff (: Well thats all folks! Hope you have a great day/night (:

VidCon!

Oh my gosh, the moment I've been waiting for all year has arrived: Vidcon. Unlike normal teenagers, I dedicate my time to my computer, more specifically Youtube. This is where I can laugh at peoples jokes and humor and learn more and become more interested in beauty products and fashion buys and all that galore. As soon as I found out who was going to Vidcon (every youtuber i subscribe too ASDFAJ) I just had to go, especially when ITS ONLY FUCKING 15 MINUTES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE!!! Unfortunately since I don't have a job and my parents are strict, I could not afford tickets this year, which is why I had planned on sitting at the convention center lobby to wait for any youtuber who happened to pop by (my heart was set on dan and phil and dailygrace). Me and my friend arrived there and walked from hotel to hotel to convention center and just made a big circle for the next 4 hours. We were unsuccessful. We both knew we wouldn't see any youtubers but just being there was fun enough (:

This is me and my friend Gracefacing (like one does when they go to vidcon)

This is me very excited to arrive at Vidcon haha.

We also stopped at the Hilton Hotel where they had the Monsters University picture thing (AKA JOE SUGG TOOK AN INSTAGRAM PHOTO THE DAY BEFORE), and being the freak that I am, I've never seen Monsters Inc so I can say that Sully (I think thats his name) scared the shit out of me)

So even though it was an unsuccessful day, it was a day well spent. We met new people, even started to vlog which I might put up on  youtube if I feel confident enough.. I might go tomorrow alone at the 

right time since today we went late. Hopefully I will!

Current Wish list!

 Seeing as it's summer and my days usually consist of scrolling through online shops all day, I decided to make a little wish list of some items I've been keeping my eye on. x 

1. Topshop Red Bandana Maxi Skirt          

Ever since maxi skirts came in fashion, I swore to myself I would never try one on, purchase on, or even think of it for that matter. But I came across this on Topshop's website and for some reason, it stood out to me. The bohemian pattern makes it look very summery, especially the choice of red they used as a base. I think it would look amazing with some sandals, a white singlet top, and a concho hat!

2. Monki Elena Dress

If someone looks at my closet, they'll find all monochrome outfits. So when I came across this plain grey jersey dress, I just fell in love. This will sound weird but the reason why I love it is that it's so basic! This is a great year-round dress. For summer, you can wear it as is with some ankle boots and ray-bans, and for the winter you can layer it with a leather jacket, some tights and a pair of adonis.

3. ASOS Longline Coatigan

This is basically a necessity. It's a coat. It's a cardigan. Its a two in one item! You can wear this over a summer outfit for those late chilly nights or you can wear it in the autumn and winter time as a finishing item on your layered outfit.

4.Topshop Blush in Flush

I've always been a fan of cream blushes; they always look so natural looking and not as cakey as powered blushes. This color is a perfect, natural looking blush color to put on for those casual days or even when you go out.

5. Mulberry Small Effie Satchel

My love for Mulberry's purses started when I saw Eleanor Calder's Mulberry Alexa and Effie. It's just the perfect size to bring when going to the mall or to run errands or anything! I just love it so much haha.

6. Topshop Alexy Platform Chelsea Boots

Again, my love for these shoes began when I saw Eleanor wear them to the KCA's last summer. They are just the perfect boot to wear anywhere; you can dress them up or down and they'll still go with everything. Its just a boot that should be in everyones closet.

So thats everything on my current wish list! Let me know what you think! (: xx

Traveling | San Francisco

Hey! Long time no speak on this thingamabob :3 and I have a good reason; I took my very first adult free vacation to San Francisco *applause*. So my first experience in an airport without my parents wasn't the best because I was taken to a special room where security would pat me down because apparently I had something on my clothes that resembled explosives T.T so after that hubabaloo, we finally got on the plane and took off ^_^ ooh look at that pretty view  *w*

we landed in San Jose where we took a shuttle to our hotel, The Fairmont. When we got there, I encountered more trouble because airport security took my only ID so I was left arguing with the staff until I showed them my papers to prove I was the real me and they finally let me in my room <.< After relaxing after being emotionally stressed all morning, we left for Market St to shop around and eat and than came home and passed out. I forgot to take pictures of our room but this was the outdoor garden area, and thats me pondering the meaning of life whilst looking out the window dramatically, as all people do when they see a old fashioned window.

The next day, we had planned out so we started out by going to the Cartoon Art Museum on Mission St. and it was surprisingly interesting- I was thinking, oh this is just going to be a bunch of anime drawings and such but it was old newspapers funnys and comic book stuff (: After that we walked down an outdoor/indoor mall where I saw these cute kawaii vases ^^

Than after that, we went on the most famous tourist spot in the world- The Golden Gate Bridge. One thing I can say is oh my god it is freakin cold!! Being used to SoCal weather, I just wore a thin sweater and jeans but I regret not dressing up like an eskimo It was so foggy and cloudy, you could barely see what was in front of you while walking on the sidewalk.

Eventually we got scared that we might not ever return after walking for 20 minutes so we came back in search of human civilization. We succeeded. To treat ourselves to a very tiring walk, we came across a small macaroon shop at the Market St. mall and bough ourselves some lovely and delicious french pastries

After walking around the mall, I spotted a familar store I used to love and I soon fell in love with it again because of these KAWAII  LLAMAS  ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

After that we traveled through China town and got some Bubz beauty inspired facial products ^_^

The next day was probably the best day which was when we went to Pier 39. OH my gosh, that is the funnest place ever. There are so many shops and food stands and fun houses and its just a great kid place (and im a kid so I obviously loved it). I got 2 churros, a bag of donuts, a cheese filled pretzel and a snickers. I was very happy. 

We saw the pier and the Alcatraz and it was the most relaxing day. After that we went on a double decker bus and took a tour all around Sf so we  wouldn't have to walk anymore. May I saw it was on of the best decisions ever because it was so incredibly cool!! 

We pretty much saw everything from City Hall, to the Full House house, the Mrs. Doubt fire house, Haight and Ashbury, Golden Gate Bridge, Market St, Union St, etc. We got off at Union St. to shop at all the little boutiques and to go to a burger place we've heard loads about-Umami Burger.

It was a very delicious burger but I can't say that it's better than The Counter burgers I've had because those are delicious! After we took a taxi to Embarcadero St. and walked around the pier and saw the Bay Bridge light up at night which was super pretty! 

I just got back today so overall I give my trip a 9/10 ((: I love San Francisco and I plan on living there after community college to hopefully go to Berkley or Davis<3 Im gonna head off now, I'm so excited to sleep in my own bed again ^_^ Goodnight or Good morning- wherever you are (:
