ohhh if only i could....

Rodarte


Marc by Marc Jacobs
Ohhh thy gosh!!! I AM wayy behind on trend! Designers are already previewing their Fall 2011 line. I am loving all the mixed colors and the solids! Here you can see some of my favorites from Rodarte and Marc by Marc Jacobs. I love the business look and the trousers. Unfortunately I can't pull it off wearing trousers that high but I'm working on it :) As for Marc by Marc Jacobs, I love the satin-y feel and look of the blouses and would LOVE to get my hands on them! Tribal prints are also making me go loco for them right now (the good kind of loco). Since I am a poor, broke college student, I guess I can't do anything about it for now but starve at school and save up for one of those blouses. ohhhh if only i could....

behind on fashion

Of course, Vicky would be behind in the trend! I've been so into the neutrals and the pales lately, that I forgot about the new trend that is evolving! BRIGHT SOLIDS! I really adore Camilla Belle's look and loveeeee her emerald pants. One thing I learned in my interior designing is that the color wheel is a useful source, especially in this situation. HA! So if you're having trouble putting outfits together, just use this color wheel or the next time you're out shopping to help you pick out the perfect solids! :)

why i NEEEED a cotton jar or the world will end

I never knew the importance of a cotton jar besides from the fact that it's called a COTTON jar. silly me. I've been using the Clinique's 3-Step Skin Care System and I find myself going from the bathroom to my room just to get a swab of cotton (for Step #2) and then walking ALLLLLLL the way back to the bathroom (my room is the master bedroom so it's just like 5 or 6 steps). Then tonight it dawned on me why PEOPLE HAVE A COTTON JAR DUHHHHHH. I, then, went onto Pottery Barn's website and looked up a few jars and the ones I see here from Pottery Barn are very classy and can be used in so many different ways! I can fill them up with candy and set them out at a themed party! So the next time I'm at Pottery Barn or Target and I'm not so broke like I am at the moment, I will consider getting one. For now I guess I'm just going to have to take those extra SIX steps to my room just to get A swab of cotton. WHY IS LIFE SO HARD WITHOUT A COTTON JAR? -_______-

hi i'm vicky. and.....???

So as you can see in my "about me," I wrote that hopefully by scrolling down my page, you will see what I am all about. Well, as a matter of fact, I don't even know what I am all about. I once went to an interview for Forever 21 and I was asked where do I get my styles from and what inspires me. Well................I had a brainfart and did not know how to respond to that! STUPID ME! Well, I wish I started this blog years ago and I would have known how to answer that! I made up some stupid answer and told them I get my styles from magazines like Glamour and Teen Vogue (hahahaha howwwwww typical of an 18 year old girl). Obviously I did.......NOT get the job and that was my own dumb fault for not researching more about myself (not Forever 21). Here's to a chance of finding out what I am about and what inspires me. Hopefully for the next job interview, I can answer that question easy breeezy.

P.S. I wish I knew how to change my background and text color to pink because ohhh you know, my title IS "Pretty in Pink-ish" :P

day one

It is my first day of blogging and hmmmm what should I blog about? Alrighteyyy so today is Chinese New Year! yay........you can hear the excitement in my voice!!!! Although I kinda am excited to go to the Festival held at the Bolsa High School (I think). So the reason why I'm starting this blog is because my professor is giving out TEN EXTRA POINTS for starting a blog!!! I'm just going to say it now, i'm not very creative and i have no idea how to blog. Although I do enjoy looking at blogs- fashion, food, interior design. Let's see what blogging has in store for me! Maybe I'll get like a billion followers!!!!! or just one....LOL but I don't care! I just want that ten points extra credit :)
