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!)

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!

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

I likes this one so much that I AM going to purchase this one very very soon.

Red ROOLZ.

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 .

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.

Oldies = Goodies

Here in Southern California a man I would like to call "Mr.Sun" has been super pissed off- or was it me? Either way I couldn't enjoy the weather since I was stuck in an office all bloody day with no air conditioner -_-. In the mist of things, I have decided to share just a couple OLDIE but GOODIE times that I've had yet to share. 

Oldie # 1

Uhmmm, look at this picture. Do I need to say more about how amazing Renegade was this past year? How cute would it be to order one of these for your wedding? We all know my ass jotted this down as an idea of my own! P.S. These were free heehee.

Oldie #2

St. Patty's. So I never really "done" St. Patty's before so when this year came along I actually wanted to finally see what all the hype was about. I had a few drinks called "Naughty Leprechauns" which were soooo good & wish they were a regular drink. A girl can dream again... Also tried my first green beer, which still tasted like regular beer but hey, at least I can say I had it. Best part of the night was when my friend brought her Apple Beer for us to share... we couldn't drink it because it had a damn corkscrew! WTF!? hahah.

Oldie # 3

Me. AHAHA. Actually my lovely dear friend Jen at Reticella made me a mini self portrait which I am totally in L O V E with. This was the version before I got bangs (A new one is currently in the works)

Oldie #4

My baby, Mood. I have an obsession with taking funny pictures of him & here is one that I always LOL about.

<3 I love this boy.

Hope everyone is enjoying this Thursday! I kinda am :)

Dear Blog, Mood is not Canadian.

Love, Me
