Memorial Day part 2...

An entire day at the lake/beach with the kiddies.
They're almost crispy black now.
I found some inspirational beachwear...in my signature color...RED :)

This is something CUTE I found on www.polyvore.com

I absolutely love it. I can't wait for more days at the beach.













Something else I found was this retro page of swimwear from www.stylishthought.com below

Full of great retro swim pieces.
I can't wait to find something so cute!
or make it...












I just thought this was a great image below...so I through it in for my future fashion inspirations...
the image is from http://www.theage.com.au

Cute...nice bangs...and I LOVE THE RED...it's probably why I chose it...I'm so into red...I'm claiming it to be my signature color.















This image below is the ONLY brunette Barbie photo in retro that I found.
It's so cute...I found it on vi.sualize.us/.../

She's in today's topic...retro swim wear and cool sunglasses, she's got a cool little video camera too.

I'd like to end today's blog with a nice little thought. Retro swimwear...MAY hide some of those unwanted cushions on the side and front of my body, that I truly hate hate hate.

Memorial Day...2010

 

Waking up to an Anna Wintour feeling classy and beautiful. Too bad I'm not at my closet and don't have the outfit to fit the day. Oh well. I still feel good. I guess our secret wasn't a secret after all...it IS his family that we live with. Anyways, I kinda wanna take a bit of a break to shop and vintage shop, but we'll see. I planned to take the kiddies swimming with MY crazy family at the lake...

But at least i feel ok...and have my magazines. That's all I need today. Can I be like Anna Wintour? Can i just be by myself, with my kiddies, with no one to take care of me? I will be strong. I think I've just fallen into this feeling of always having someone there, because I got married at such a young age, had children and always lived with his family...I'm sure he feels the same. We just need our space sometimes...

I wanna go out to the park and look and feel like Anna Wintour. So...I do.

Let's get the day started...breakfast with the kiddies...shower...then dress for the lake/beach/kiddie birthday with the family.

Happy Memorial Day!

I'm a little bit of each of them...

Late night thinking...can't sleep...addicted to this blogging.
As I sit here looking...looking...up fashion 'stuffs'...I think I'm a little bit of each of the SATC girls...I wish I had a buncha soul mates like them. That's every bit special and missing.

I know I'm definitely anal and optimistic ditz like Charlotte, sometimes strong enough in alot of ways, but just don't notice it much, like Miranda, wants to maintain a bit of a cougar way about me and stay in touch with my body needs, and I LOVE fashion like Carrie does...my closet is about to explode, I share with my husband.

I can't believe I never watched the series before...but then again, I really never let myself watch too much tv. When I watch this, I'm a bit jealous of the friendship they have, I want to find and maintain a really strong friendship like the one they have...through thick and thin, I would like to have someone to talk to, with no family ties, no judging, just on my side, but keep me humble and level headed, but able to tell me to truth that hurts, just be there to listen...and let me vent, able to share anything and everything.

Late Night Wish List

THE SHOES!
Christian Louboutin

Dunno who built this outfit,
but it looks great with the SHOES!

Late Night Fashion

Late night Fashion research...

May 30, 2010 Ran away today and its late at night

Woke up this morning with the intention to run away from all the...stuff...snuck off with the kiddies and spent the day in a private Forest Lake resort. Had the time to let the kiddies swim outside on the deck, while I took a nice nap.

I then ran off to get the order from Sam's Club, sent that off and then came back with the rest of the evening doing my fashion research, in peace. No interruptions of male needed things. Just simple restful space is where I am at today.

Today was a good day.

Anyways...I'm starting up again on my weekend blogging. I think before, I was trying to do it everyday, which seemed too much and then I quit. But now I see that others have been doing it on the weekends and its just nice.

These past few weeks I've caught and bought a few movies, to my liking, to my interest, The September Issue, Coco before Chanel, Sex and the City Movie, and caught the second one on the big screen, I also bought and watched Rachel Zoe, which was not that great, but did give a good insight on a stylist and what their daily job duty is...and that's to lug around a whole buncha shizite just to...lug it all back :( blah.

Anyways, I'm back to loving fashion, I think I was always, but didn't have much time to it. I can't wait to make the money, and build something around fashion...on the side :)

I'm excited to volunteer for Center for Hmong Arts and Talent [CHAT] and be on their VIP committee for the annual fashion show 'Fresh Traditions'. Dunno what I will be doing yet, but Kathy says bring on the ideas and suggestions. So I have to ask a few questions first, to even know what to think about. I need to know the location/venue, the time of season...anyways lots to know before I can think about anything else.

FOR SURE I will need to think about contributors, who will contribute and who will be willing to contribute for this event. What are they expecting? What should they get? I guess I have to review in my thoughts what I saw last year, they VIP guests got front row seats, a booth, liquor, and a take away.

With every year Fresh Traditions getting bigger and better, I want this year to be more exceptional too. But what to do, what to do...
