F%$! this week.

Seriously. I have been having awful days at work, my co-worker isn't talking to me, & I have to return the dress I bought from modcloth -_-. Thank heavens for Saturday & Sunday because those days really lifted my spirits. Went to milk on Saturday with a few friends to enjoy some amazing Blue Velvet Cake. MMMmmMMmm is really all I can say about it since it was so gosh darn delicious, even their regular Red Velvet was bomb (Yes my ass is a fat ass & I got both the blue velvet slice & the mini red velvets). Oops?! (My phone takes the most ugliest pics ::tear:: )


Also had one of these from MILK- ehhhhh, I don't think I'll ever get one again- Oops? 
Let's just say, I've had better for less. It is pretty though right?


Also had a little inspiration to put together a "Modern Snow White" for both Saturday & Sunday. I love Yellow & Blue together- they should think about getting married.

(BAD PICS I KNOW!)
(Cardigan: Target - Dress: La Mode Boutique - Tights: Target - Steve Maddens: Ross)

Sunday was great too- I am currently getting over a food coma aghhhhh. Never again will I eat that much! 

Dear Blog, I wish the week will get better. Please?
Love, Hopeful Snow White Impostor

DRAG QUEENS & ANIMALS


(picture of event found online)

WHAT COULD BE BETTER!? My lovely friend Bre invited me to go play Bingo with her in West Hollywood (Representing all my gays- Hollaaa!!) at burger joint, Hamburger Mary's last Wednesday. I really didn't know what to expect since I've really never played bingo "live" so I said "Hey! Why the f%$^ not?". All you got to do is make a donation- it really is for a good cause (All donations go towards helping homeless animals) Sweet right? And I mean, who doesn't loe a drag queen? Especially as a lovely host ;) Anyway, let me just say that I never EVER win anything so when I won I was definitely surprised! (Let me mention that the winner has to run around in the entire restaurant while everyone throws their loosing bingo papers at you!). AMAZING.

SO what did I win? What was in this awesome kitty bag?

1. A red suede wallet
2. Organic dog treats (that my sweet angel enjoyed)
3. A book on dog lovers
4. A $50.00 gift certificate for a hair cut & blow dry
5. 10 tickets for a comedy show at Universal City Walk

Uhmmm- How amazing is that?
Such a good night that was, so many good laughs ::sigh::

Dear Blog, I guess you never know when luck is on your side.
Love, Bingo Winner.

Every Rose has its... Bow?

I just wanna start off by saying a B I G Thanky Thanky to the sweet responses about my nephew! It means  MUCHO MUCHO MUCHO!

So the week started off by a surprise in the mail- What was it? Well, recently I've been wanting to "Spice Up" some things with the hair so I thought to myself, "Colleen, go on Etsy. You know you are going to find something." & what do you know... I did :D

Purchase was this mustard yellow headband made by YESSJESS- You can wear this bad boy all sorts of ways!

Dear Blog, I am addicted, addicted to Buying.
Love, Colleen

P.S. Sephora FINALLY gave me a call to tell me they had the lipstick I'd been wanting. That was 3 months ago -_-

OLIVER.

Is it possible to have a exciting, exhausted, glorious, jubilant, over whelming, nervous, insane, stunned, warm, encouraged weekend? I can't really explain the feelings I had but those words seem to be a little close. Anyway, I would love to introduce someone really special whom I met over the weekend:

This is baby Oliver, my new nephew. Oliver said hello to the world on April 8, 2011 weighing a total of 7 lbs 12 ounces. 



Not only did I get to met him BUT I actually got the opportunity to see him "travel" haha. Such an amazing experience, one I will never forget. I look forward to watching him grow...


Dear Blog, 
I really wish I could give every woman who has given birth 1 Billion dollars or at least a hug--- every man should be praising their woman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love, Tia Colleen

I actually do like colors.

Everyday is like Sunday (Smiths anyone?). I actually got up a decent time, got ready, hung out with my dad then helped BBQd. Is it bad that I think my dad makes the best BBQ grub ever? No way. I swear he has some kind of gift or wizard hands because every time he reunites with the grill BAM! YUMMY. 

Aside from my grill master dad, I got in my tights from We Love Colors. I decided to get Red (since I've seen them look so cute with outfits) & Navy.

This is probably one of the most worst picture showing the color but it was the best I can do. 
Apologies.

Saw this dress & was in love with the color & ruffled top:


SOOOOOOO.... I TRIED to find something a little like it: Ehh
I know its not exact BUT the color is dead on in person & it did have a ruffled neck.



I paired it with this lovely grey cardigan I purchased form H&M for $10 bucks! 

The Navy tights actually looked really nice with these colors. So do I recommend We Love Colors? Yes, I do. The are comfy & come in all sorts of HOT colors! What could be better?

Dear Blog, I REALLY need a camera.
Love, The girl with the messy @ss room.

HURRY BABY!

So my sisters due date has officially come which means!!!!!!!!!!! There is no baby -_-. Whhhyyyyy???? Apparently she is getting mini contractions & her other babies (aka Cats) have not left her side- one even walked in circles around her. Weird how animals know things right? Now I will wait... in this cloudy weather since "Mr.Sun" decided to sleep in today. CALIFORNIA WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? 


ANYBODY KNOW? I don't. haha.

AnyhooiZzle

I have decided on behalf of my sister to post some pictures of her wedding (it was about 2.5 years ago).  Everything turned out so beautiful & I only hope that mine will be half as gorgeous. The Knot wedding magazine also choose to do a lil column about it thanks to her photographer, Jules Bianchi .

Cake Topper from Etsy- Supplier: OilPainta



AHA! Even these dollies that I bought them from Anthropologie made it :)






My Mom made all of our bouquets, she has a gift with flowers!


& of course... ME! haha I don't have any of the professional ones soooo bear with me.




& they are living happily ever after.
