small moments in my life: sunsets & burgers

My friends and I went out to lunch today, and I realized how pretty my home was.

Disneyland (Yes, it's only been two days) with my sis & momma

  

Dress: Offbrand
Jacket: Vintage
Necklace: F21
Shoes: TUK

So my family hasn't been to Disneyland in around 3 years, so my boyfriend was sweet enough to sign my mom, sister and I all into to park for some fun! This outfit was my original idea of what I wanted to wear today, but after checking the weather and realizing it's going to be cold as butts, I decided to change it up a bit.

So since it was going to be chilly, I put a cropped black sweater over the floral dress, paired it with some simple black tights and added my lil mickey ears, with my huge willy wonka glasses.

As you can tell, he loves his job a little too much.

Although it was chilly, we still enjoyed it. My little sister was absolutely ecstatic about today, so we pretty much let her take lead of what to ride. Out of all the rides we road today, I think her favorite had to be Radiator Spring's Racers, for obvious reasons.

"I think I just wet myself."

Radiator Springs is one of my favorites as well, mostly because it's new, smooth and has tons of charm. I haven't even seen the movie, Cars, and I still love it!

"Ohhh, you."

We also went on Haunted Mansion, Jungle Cruise, (duh.) Indy, Pirates, and pretty much all the classic favorites. It was a really nice day to go too, only 25 minute lines tops.

"You like your new Minnie ears Alex?" Alex: "...." "He likes them."

Hello everyone. I am the new disney princess, Salmonella.

I really enjoyed going to Disneyland with my sister and mom, it really reminded me when I used to go with my family all the time when I was a kid, totally gave me the warm fuzzies all day. 

I wish my dad could have gone too, but Alex can only sign in so many people at a time.

Thanks for reading guys!

Dapper Day 2014

Dress: Heart of Haute

Cardigan: Sourpuss

Everything else: offbrand

So this sunday was Dapper Day at Disneyland and I finally was able to go! I was beyond estatic about seeing everyone in their dapper attire! My boyfriend took my friend, Dina and I to go hang around the park. I had soooo much fun! I also got tons and tons of footage for a Dapper Day video I'm in the process of making. 

Dina decided to wear a 20s-30esque dress, along with a pair of adorable knit gloves, and simple pearls.

The entire time I was beyond surprised at how many people actually participated in Dapper Day! Vast majority of everyone was dressed in their best attire! I loved to see everyone's own definition of what dapper meant to them. (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

"hmm..... i'm kinda hungry.."

Hahaha! Me screaming internally. (AW DINA IS CUTE)

Dina, me and Alex, chilling with our new ride **

We hung out at disney for a good majority of the day, we went on Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Star Tours, and a couple other really fun classic rides. In the afternoon, we decided to mosey on over to California Adventure to check out the new entrance. It's all very old hollywood and really neat.

"Now make a silly faaace!" me: "I don't remember how!"

Alex and his kewt lil bowtie omg I probably straightened it for him like 12 times.

All in all, I had a beyond awesome day, filled with lots of vintage fashion, and constantly thinking over and over "oh my glob, where did she get that?!"

( p.s love you Alex, thank you so much for taking meee!)
also, stay tuned for my dapper day video! It's gonna be sweet!

mini golf date & new furniture

Dress: leif my tart jsk

Blouse: thrifted

Cardigan: sourpuss

Purse: thrifted

Shoes: bodyline

Alex and I decided to go have a mini date and play mini golf! We had so much fun, and the weather was really nice too. Unfortunately, my eyes were feeling crazy sensitive today, so I had to wear my glasses.

ahhhh he's so cuuuuteeee!

I almost beat him! My par was literally 2 more than him!

"Aleeeeeeeexxx! Can I have a redooooooo???"

Alex was sweet enough to allow me a couple redos, as I am a poor sport.

We had so much fun! Alex actually ended up getting... I think 2 hole in ones!

my cute lil kitty stockings! Meow!

Also, the past couple days I have been MIA because we have been moving in all my new white furniture from my room! I'm so excited! We painted it a very grey blue color. It's almost pastel. 

Alfie wanted to take a nap on my new bed

I just gotta save for a new bedspread, curtains, lamp, and some framed art work.

At least the most expensive part has been covered. Phew!

Some art I have been considering maybe putting up one of Camilla Derrico's prints and framing it.

I've always loved her art, and I've gone to her booth at anime expo for the past couple years, and still have yet to meet her! Hopefully next year. c:

it has so much emotion to it, gorgeous.

Thanks for reading!

Dolly Kei Inspiration

No outfit post tonight, I got ready in too much of a rush today. I just wore whatever I could find. ┐(‘～`；)┌ Today I'm just going to post a bit outfit inspiration!

When it comes to Japanese fashion, I've always been heavily into lolita fashion, but lately I've really wanted to broaden my horizons by experimenting with different styles.

One of those is definitely Dolly kei.

Love it, A line skirt with a cute little belt and little flares of red in there. Adorable.

I find the style very endearing and something that is a little less 'out there' when it comes to Japanese fashion.

Printed grimoire tights, peter pan blouse, houndstooth skirt with black and white saddle heels <3

Here are some other pictures of this style that I found really inspiring:

 

Lots of vintage flair in this one

More casual takes of the style.

Loving the socks and heels together! Very funky and cute!

I think what I love most about this style is it's accessibility to the united states. Most of the items from Grimoire are imported from the usa. I believe I might try and create an outfit inspired by this style in the next couple days.

More work, less play.

Sweater: Thrifted

Skirt: F21

Tights: Leg Ave

Shoes: TUK

I worked all day today and it was very painfully slow! I did get lots of compliments about my outfit for the day though! My boyfriend bought me this sweater and it's currently one of my favorites. c: After work, I came home and reorganized my room again, but it's just so crowded! Luckily, my mom was able to find an ad on craigslist for a whole collection of new furniture! So I'm crossing my fingers. I'm definitely going to be having a garage sale soon! I have way too many books and stuff I just don't need in my room. :c

I'm also really upset because my favorite mirror broke today while I was moving around my furniture!

Luckily, my boyfriend is coming over soon, that should cheer me up. (´；ω；`) 

Also! I'm going to dapper day this Sunday! 

So be prepared to see a great post about that, and also a video!

My Valentine's Day was pretty casual and nice. I spent the morning watching television with my momma in pajamas. I had to work at around 4PM, so I made sure to gather a couple things for a cute impromptu present for Alex and then I went to work. After that we went back to his place and he gave me an Alpacasso as a present!! Ahhh! I love her so much!! Totally the best present ever.

                  

My dog loves V-day too, Alex's gift, and my new Alpacasso "Baby." <3

It felt nice to just have a night in, watched south park and just pigged out together. I got him a bunch of exotic chocolates that we got to share! <3 (hey alex if your reading this, ily)
