lent time

Giving up any form of coffee for lent (which started on March 9). Now this will actually be a challenge for me compared to last year when I gave up MySpace... oh yea such torture that was!

Heaven for my skin

Boho Wedding

I'll be attending a wedding this May and already I'm thinking about what I'll wear. Spent hours earlier browsing the net for that perfect dress. Speaking of weddings, for the longest time my "ultimate" dream was a beach wedding. Lately that format has been a bit outplayed, so moving on to other ideas. One of my friends influenced me on the idea of having a wedding out of the country, which sounds great but I'd still want to think about other options. Even though I don't have to worry about marriage anytime soon being single and young, it's just fun pondering about it every now and then.

At the moment I'm loving the whole bohemian-hippie type wedding: very simple yet chic, out in nature, flowers in the hair, relatively small guest list and no need for an extravagant gown. Mimi Baez Fariña's wedding (October 1968) is the epitome of that. I adore everything about it.

Think I'm going

to make this both a fashion and beauty blog. Maybe. Lately been more fascinated with make up, beauty tips and how to maintain nice skin, etc. Fashion will always be my first love...but there's just something about make up that's reeling me in. Been more excited for my next lipstick purchase than shoes. I suppose this could just be a phase. Nothing wrong with loving both right? :)

Random thought: really want my Nars collection to grow. !
