aww Winter Break. . .

Yes, winter break has finally began for me. Usually we get a total of two weeks for break (which I really wish we had), but since it falls on a Saturday this year we only get one and a half. Joy! I've been losing a great amount of sleep lately and I finally get to catch up on some rather than my usual four hours or five if I'm lucky.

Expect a vlog post soon, very soon. And probably a blog post with pictures too since I'm going to go visit my family in Baltimore tomorrow. I get to drive up there on the highway. Eek! I get nervous when I have to drive especially on the highway (I don't really care for it). I'm always worrying that I get in a crash, or cause of crash, or even worse. However, I really need to a car to get around in this town in order to go to school, after-school activities, and so on.

Three more days until its Christmas! I'm ready for it this year. I got my family a bunch of cute things especially clothes for my mom because I felt like hooking her up with some great pieces for the winter here in Virginia. And of course at my household we are celebrating with movies. My favorite of all is Love Actually.

I'm just finishing it now with my mom. I'll probably watch it again before and after Christmas. Its a true favorite.


It is a very British movie filled with romance, comedy, and heartbreak. Its a favorite and I completely recommend watching it because their is laughter and the Beetles. I don't think any British movie would be complete without the Beetles. Favorite character Sam because he fell in love and knew the "total and complete agony of being in love."
At least once in your life time I advise that you watch this movie. Its definitely a favorite, like I've said eighty times already.
So Love & Love Actually,

P.S. cautionary note for viewers under 17 the movie is rated British R.

Look What I Found

Sorry guys, super apologies are coming your way for two reasons. 1. My mother went to go get my camera a new memory card and has placed it with the Christmas presents. Which means no vlog post yet but I am looking in the market for a webcam. Any recommendations? 2. Also, my mother's camera's battery is fried so we're trying to get here a new one and a higher lens because she has been hinting about that's what she needs.

But until then I've been in the market looking at shoes, they're my new fetish, especially wedges and heels. I saw these shoes V V Brown is wearing in the November issue of InStyle

If you can see her shoes there is this black fringe-type-fur-thing going down the heel. Its called a mowhawk heel and courtesy of Krystal of This Time Tomorrow has produced a DIY: ysl palais mohawk suede pumps





"Alright, ladies and gents. Here's the much-anticipated DIY post for those YSL palais mohawk suede pump look-a-likes I was sporting the other day, both here and here.

Hopefully I didn't build this up too much, because the process here is pretty simple (after all, I could do it!). So here's how the story goes...

For starters, you'll need the following:
- pair of black suede pumps of your choosing; I chose a pair from Forever 21, $22
- glue gun
- small strip of black faux fur (the longer the fur, the better)
- scissors

First up, you'll want two identical strips cut from your original strip. Try eyeballing it while holding it up to the back curve of the heel, to get an idea of how thick you want the strip to be. Mine were roughly an inch in width and I made sure to have it run from the very top of the shoe to the base of the heel.

Once you have your two strips, warm up the glue gun and start gluing!

To give extra oomph and the "mohawk" effect, I sprayed hairspray on the fur and sculpted it into the mohawk shape. (If you happen to be crazy like me and try this DIY at work, your coworkers will look at you funny, promise.)

Next, WEAR THOSE PUPS around! (This is when said coworkers start coveting the shoes, making the funny looks worth it.)

And that's it. See? Painless and didn't put you out $935."

I would definetly do this but since I don't have an extra pair of heels to transform or a job to pay for an extra pair of heels to transform. But I thought it was a lovely project to share with you the bold followers who would want to try this.
So Love & Mohawks

p.s. I'm going to post more on things in general and I'm going to do a vlog post.
