Fall Shopping+Tattoos= Good Times














So the day before yesterday I met up with my friend Bobby Jay to see him get tattooed on Hollywood Blvd. I hadnt been to the boulevard in a while which is weird because I use to hang out there everyday when I was a teenager, but It's definitely changed- everything has. I guess because its still summer over here there's a shitload of tourists, and if your a local it can be annoying sometimes. Seeing my friend get tattooed kind of renewed my love for it, and I even asked how much it would cost for a dime sized tattoo-when he said $80 I laughed in his face, so he lowered the price. But I feel like if you come to get tattooed on Hollywood Blvd your doing it more for the "prestige" and less for the actual artwork. Anywho I've decided to get tattooed finally in about two weeks, you'll have to wait for the vlog I'll film for it! Later that day I randomly went into the Forever21 on Highland not expecting to find anything appealing, because I never do! But to my surprise I went nuts- loving all their fall and winter stuff. So heres the things I chose, trust me I tried ALOT of clothes on, and thats really the trick with Forever21 clothes, you gotta take advantage of the dressing rooms! Also I subscribed to Nylon again lol. As for the barbie pink velvet hangers I bought them yesterday at "Fallas Paredes" (a discount store) only $3.99 for a set of 10!! not bad eh? OH BEFORE I FORGET I made a new youtube video CLICK THIS :) I THINK YOU'LL LIKE IT :) annnnd THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO WISHED ME A HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST ♡♡♡you cheered me up with all your comments especially LaSophia omg I laughed so hard at that story LMAO.
(sorry for the long post but had alot to share)

as always,

August Goodies







Here are a few of the things I've picked up this month. My birthday was on the 26th but it was so uneventful its not even worth talking about it. Turning 22 wasn't as great as I thought it would have been when I was younger. But maybe I've yet to experience true happiness, or maybe I've just got the birthday blues. Who knows... either way I can tell you a valuable lesson Ive learned on my birthday..not everyone is who they say they are. Meaning that the people who calls themselves your friends arent always really your friends, these days it seems like no one is a real friend anymore. I guess I tried to fill this nagging void with "things", so I make lists of all the things I want then when I get them...then what? nothing happens. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that money cant buy you friends or happiness, but it can buy you a whole hell of alot of pretty things.

Denim & Leopard



                       thrifted denim top/leopard shorts-papaya/shoes-my moms/H&M purse/Friends hat and sunglasses

Today I wore this and I semi regret wearing this denim shirt because I was boiling alive! this heat makes you not want to go anywhere that doesn't have a/c. Anyway I went to Barnsdall Art park with Jake and they always have the organic farmers market here but its kind of expensive so I just skip it, but they do have awesome pupusas (for those of you who dont know pupusas are handamde tortillas with cheese and or meat and beans inside) their made by a Salvadorian lady who knows her stuff! Did you guys know I'm half Salvadorian? I dont think I've ever mentioned it...hmm..anyway my other half is Puerto-Rican, which is why I'm so dark LOL! Anywho check out this park in Hollywood/Los Feliz Area if your ever in LA it has amazing views if you go to the top of the hill. There's also a musuem and a sculpture garden, its discreet and a nice place for the kids to run around-if you have any! haha

Retro Alaia

 

             Bustier-recycled from my friend/ BodyCon Floral Skirt-forever21/ Shoes-my moms/ Sunglasses- a friends

Hi. So when shooting this with Michelle the other day she told me I reminded her of an 80's Azzedine Alaia model. I think thats one of the best compliments EVER! If you dont know who Alaia is he's an extremely inspiring couture designer who's impecable clothes have graced the likes of Michelle Obama, Madonna,Victoria Beckham, Miley cyrus and countless others. He's known for his moniker "the king of cling" because of the body-con styles of clothing. For those of you who've seen the 90's movie "CLUELESS" -one of my faves- remember the scene when she gets mugged and the guy tells her to get on the ground, shes like" oh no this is an Alaia!" referring to her tight red dress. Anyway this goes to show you you can dress cool without having to be a millionaire to afford it.

Secret Garden






              Charlotte Russe lace cami/ my friend's hat/ thrifted shoes/ orange lipstick with Revlon Coral Reef lipgloss


Here's a little surprise post YAY! I shot this in my secret garden (not my ladyparts lol >_<) but more like this quasi backyard. I hadn't been there in years! not since I used to smoke pot there before class in the mornings-it gave a whole new meaning to the word "Highschool" -ZING!!!! HAHA anywhoville today was chill Michelle (my photographer/ homie) and I went to the farmers market and discovered this weird fruit called dinosaur something-i forget the other fancy word-but it's a type of organic apricot,they taste really weird but good. Then we had to balance all that organic fruit with some preservatives(as part of any balanced diet of course!) so we went to Wendy's to eat some dollar menu shtuff cuz we ballin like that! inside tumblr joke ;) We managed to snap a couple of shots and all in all it was fun hanging out and being normal again. Anyway how was your day?
 Expect more fashion posts coming soon!

COLORIFIC!

Considering that my last post was about all the colors I've dyed my hair its only appropriate I show you how its this big trend with celebrities too now. From Katy Perry to Kate Bosworth, Jessie J and even Lauren Conrad<---who would've thought?--theyre all taking part in this fun hair cult I'm proud to be part of.





Personally I like Jessie J's the most! I think I'm gonna have to bite her style on that one LOL we'll see! Would you ever dye your hair crazy colors??

Gwen Stefani x Target + OOTD

I read the other day that Gwen Stefani is launching an expansion of her Harajuku Lovers line for Target called Harajuku Mini. The line is designed for none other than our precious mini-me's -kids! It meant to be an "affordable Japanese anime inspired" line for babies and tweens. It debuts November 13 with budget-friendly prices from $3.99 - $29.99. Personally I love how gwen dresses her older boy Kingston, hes soo punk! I'm definitely checking out what she has to offer for my little Jacob. Since this post is a little different  I thought I might as well show you some of the latest additions to Jake's wardrobe!
Blue onesie-The children's place/ Jeans-cherokee/ camo vest-vintage Guess & Shorts Target but bought at LA kid boutique "Grow Kid Grow"

Anywho check out my sweet Lisa Simpson tee twas' only $3.99 at a discount store named Fallas Paredes (its pretty ghetto but they have good stuff sometimes) its similar to Ross for those who've never heard of it. I paired it with my high waisted denim shorts from LoveCulture-which i actually bought at another discount store for $2.99 OH YEAH! TOTAL OUFIT COST=$7.00= WINNING!

Dazed&Confused OOTD 1970's Inspired Outfit of the Day


Hi there! heres my most recent video I did that I forgot to share with you all earlier, Ive been pretty out of it lately-still, Ive been trying to get over my "funk" by getting out of the house with Jacob(my son) and thats kept me pretty busy. Another lame reason why I havent done a fashion post is because jacob threw my blackberry the other day playing around- its dead now. I'm kind of a cheapo these days so I'm extremely hesitant to buy a new phone, when I barely get calls anyway. Anywho since I cant reach my friend who takes the pictures for here, It'll be a little while until the next one. On the other hand I'm trying to stay positive and keep up with my hobbies so I started painting, scrapbooking, shopping and generally trying to do things that make me happy again. I know this might be counterproductive in helping me not be depressed but I cant stop listening to the carpenters lately. LOL Karen Carpenter has me in a 70's mood. Isnt it funny that what we feel and are going through can have an impact on how we dress? I think thats kind of interesting...

anywho take care loves!
STAY POSITIVE AND DO WHATEVER MAKES YOU HAPPY!

For now, this is what I've been feeling lately.

Lipstick Jungle







COTTON ON SHIRT/DIY STUDDED SHORTS/F21 BOOTS/RANDOM ACCESORIES/TARGET WATCH/STOLEN HAT

So today was hot as hell! Comik and I managed to snap a couple of these before work, and I feel like I looked mad in alot of them haha, I was seriously sweating the whole time ew lol. On top of that the heat made my hair puffy hence the hipster fedora. Im aware that the title for this post was also of a cheesy old lady show but I thought it was kind of appropriate considering the "urban-jungle" type of scenery and the fact that I'm wearing bright lipstick, funny huh? Anyway the shorts in this post were actually boring old grey pants that didnt fit snug-guess I lost some weight-so I cut them and studded the back pocket. This is a really big trend I've seen everywhere and I'm wondering if any of you have done it?
                                                        
                                                                 Stay Cool!- Evee
