Until Next Time

All of the pics I can find at the moment...We pretty much walked ALL of Chicago and the mall a few times while we were there. I found some nice jeans, some shirts, and my latest addition to my growing collection of kicks, my Nike Sweet Classic Leather low-kicks....in black/white, to keep it simple. ;)

We kicked it at the Navy Pier for a while, too [it's a huge tourist attraction w/ a bunch of stores, but we just went 2 eat McDonald's, lol]--and it only cost $24 to park! Haha, that was crazy....

All-in-All I had a great time, from walking around frantically on State St to the crazy employees at our hotel, Chicago was amazing.

I'll Meet You In Chicago♥

For a couple of days I'll be in Chicago w/ my cousins & others....

We're headed out to Chicago for shopping and, of course, POPCORN!

I LOVE the Garrett Popcorn Shop's Garrett Mix popcorn, so I'm definitely stopping by one of the shops for a bag of it!

Mannn, I'm so geeked about this trip since I haven't been to Chicago in over a year. I'm leaving for my cousin's house tonight but we're leaving for Chicago tomorrow morning ;)

I'll try to keep the blog posted with updates & pics, hopefully I'll have time to update the blog & take pics [if my cousins bring a camera]......

I'm out, gotta go pack! ;)

My Life: The Update

Sooo I'm looking in my September issue of Elle magazine, and it's really got me thinking about back-to-school shopping, which being the procrastinator I am, I haven't finished yet =/. I haven't opened my Marie Claire yet, but maybe the little shopping supplements attached to it'll help me out with my B2S shopping....

Here's two outfits I made via Polyvore, while getting my hair done, instead of tweaking up the blog [sorry guys, I'll get to it ASAP!].

I hope you enjoy because this is part of what I'm wearing back to school ;):

Click on the links/pics to see the outfits better ;)

Sorry I tagged so much....it was brought 2 my attention that someone has been copying my sets....So if you see any sets floating around with the exact same items in it, put them in check 4 me xD....I've been using different peoples' accounts for making sets depending on where I am at the time, but I'll make an official MLOMW Polyvore acct later......

Throwback: ABDC Season 3, 5th Week Quest Crew Performance =One of my FAVORITE Performances...Fact: I have a minicrush on D-Trixx, haha:

On Hiatus

By now everyone should know I'm that type of girl that'll tell you straight up what I'm going to say, instead of beating around the bush.

.

With that said, one of my relatives has died and I'm going to be taking time this time to be with family. Although this will be a short break, this will halt some things.

Even though I will be gone for a while, know that I will come back bigger than ever. ;)

I'm Drenched In Gold, My Love...

UPS just came & dropped off a package from Gilt Groupe!

I took some pics with my dad's huge OLD camera anddd, for some reason they're not uploading....They're pretty blurry anyway so, instead of those pics, here are some great pics via Zappo's:

From Stila's Indian Summer Collection, it's the Stila Gold Shimmer 24 Carat Gloss! I chose the Golden Charm gloss & I already love it! Although they are limited edition you can still probably find them online. The gloss is infused with 24 kt gold leaf & shimmery pearl, and since gold is an antioxidant, this gloss almost has me sold!

Although, there is one problem.....Looking at the list of ingredients , it's apparent that there is carmine in the 24 kt gloss. For those of you who don't know, carmine is pretty much grounded up cochineal beetles used for a bright red pigment. This may be only in the Merlot Gloss, but you have to admit that's pretty gross.

The gloss is amazing, & let's hope the anti-microbial properties of the gold & the lovely vanilla scent in the gloss will make the thought of putting carmine on my lips....disappear.
