What I Got For Christmas!

        Hello Dolls!!! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!! I can't believe today was Christmas! Seems like yesterday I was still wearing shorts about to get ready for Halloween. This year has gone by in a blink of an eye. With my Grampie's passing this past June it's been a really hard holiday season. Nothing seems right without him here and it's made me sad. But I know he is watching over us and smiling. 

        I decided to share with you some gifts I got this year! The only big thing I asked for this year was an Ikea dresser. I usually ask for a purse or shoes that are designer but I really want to change my room around and finally be proud of it. My theme is white, gold, and pink! I also got the usual refills on beauty products including a few new ones like the Peach Palette from Too Faced! So excited about that and the Mariah Carey MAC collection! So amazing! I got a few clothing pieces from when I went to the outlets with my family! I knew alot of what I was getting already but I did have a few surprises here and there!

        I hope everyone's holiday was amazing!!! Have a healthy and happy new year!!!! 

Lots of love,

LTF : Holiday Party Outfit Ideas!

Hey everyone!!! First off...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!! It goes by so fast I know! Feels like yesterday I was just finishing finals. Well a couple of days ago I filmed a Holiday Outfit Ideas video for YouTube and I wanted to explain the outfits!

For my first outfit I'm wearing a green blazer from Forever 21, black bejeweled shirt from Forever 21 and Hollister jeggings. For shoes I'm wearing black boots from Target. I took the traditional green color from Christmas in my blazer to bring this outfit from everyday to Christmas Day! This is my new favorite blazer! Because my blouse has a jeweled collar there is no need for a necklace. Just add a pair of earrings and some cute bracelets, your all set!

My second outfit is a formal family/work party outfit. I know I'll be wearing this for my family Christmas party! I bought this dress from H&M for $15! Love Christmas sales! Just saying! Make your Holiday bold with bold colors! Like this royal blue dress! I paired it with a black faux fur coat I bought from Target 2 years ago and black heels to from DSW that are the brand Connie. They are so old...I need a new (taller!) pair of black pumps...asap! Top it off with a Santa hat and your all ready to go!

For my last and final outfit I decided to try something casual. Not sticking to the "Christmas" "Holiday" colors I paired a pink Forever 21 sweater, a winter scarf from Forever 21, and Hollister super skinny jeans together. Simple and comfy for the busy holiday season. I added my monogramed necklace from an etsy shop and a J. Crew yellow bubble necklace to make this look not so casual. I'm also wearing my Ralph Lauren riding boots to dress this look up!

Well I hope this helps you get ideas for last minute Holiday outfits!!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas/Holiday and I'll write you later!

SJP : Ralph Lauren Monogramed Hat

Hey Everyone! Wow! First semester of college is officially over! I seriously can't believe how fast it went by! College has been great! There have been ups and downs just like every roller coaster of a ride school brings you. But overall the experience has been good. Now that I'm on vacation for a whole month I want to start back up my blog and try my best to blog once a day! I'm also going to be making YouTube videos like crazy as well because I miss it so much! I say this now and I know it will go down hill a little but I'm working on it! I really am! haha! With work, family and friends it's pretty had to balance everything. A girl can try right!

Here's a new purchase I recently received! It's a Ralph Lauren polo cap and it's monogramed on the back with my initials! I LOVE IT! I've been dying to get one of these for a while now! Whenever I feel like I'm having a bad hair day (which comes often thanks to my curly hair :/ ) I just but on my cap! Easy as that!

Well I hope everyone's holiday is wonderful! and let's hope the world doesn't end! (Even though I know it's not going to! I haven't bought my Chanel purse yet! ;) )

PS - Here's my newest video! Check it out!!!

It's amazing! Like really where has this been all my life! Haha! Christmas was great! I got the Steve Madden boots, Marc Jacobs watch and more! I love the Christmas holiday season! It's always so calming! Well for me...for my nana, well just say she isn't the most calming person around haha! But never the less I'm having a nice time. Although I really want to go home and take a nap or watch Midnight in Pairs! I've been waiting for that to come out since it came out during summer! Can't wait to watch it! well that's really it. I just want to wish you Dolls a Merry Christmas and to say that 25 days of Style is finally over! Wasn't much what I wanted to be but that's ok! I still need to get a tripod to take pictures! I forgot about that! I guess Santa didn't remember it hahah! I'll have to remind him next time ;) well I'll talk to you dolls last then!

Day 19 : Ya...about that video...

Hey Dolls! So about that video I kind of promised today...I don't have it. I had work and I took the day off because I was for lack of better works wiped out! Oh and I have a ton of college apps that have to be done...I'm just about done for all of them! Just need to get all my school work papers in and a couple of little essays here and there to finish! So exciting!!! I can't wait to hear back form them! Hopefully everything will go great and I'll get into the schools I want! I did apply to Parsons! (Like I'm acturally going to get in...psh! But a girl can dream...right! Of course!) Lets just pray I get into that or LIM or FIT! New York...here I come! ;D haha!

Day 15 : Video Preview!

Hey Dolls! So sorry for this lame blog preview...I had work so I couldn't put my video up...now I have to do Stats...again..for homework... :( *tear!* I did go "Christmas" Shopping today! I went to Hollister to get some jeans and socks haha! Oh and yoga pants! More later on that...I really hope I don't have to work tomorrow because I really want to go shopping some more tomorrow! My Mom said I can get the Steve Madden boots I want instead of Uggs this year. I'm completely fine with that!! haha! I want this boots soooo badly!! Can't wait! XOXO!

Oh! and look who finally has her tree up!!! :D Woo! Love Christmas!

Day 11 : Trend It Report It {Red Jeans}

Hey Dolls!!! So today I have a Trend It Report It post!! So by a show of virtual hands how many people have seen or worn red skinny/jeggings???? I know I have! I'm always seeing people with red pants and I really want a pair!! Especially before the trend fades!!

I found this picture of Jessica Alba online one day. She's so chic! I love her style!!! If I had red jeans I would wear them like this as well! Just throw on a cute pair of heels or flats like the ones from Steve Madden or TOMS (in the picture above) and a cute tote bag like this one from Michael Kors! Oh and don't forget your Starbucks! You need to make sure your up and ready for the day looking fabulous! Not sleepy and tired from a long day of school or work from the other day!

I choose these three red pants to show on my blog because they are from 3 brands that I love to wear!

1. American Eagle Jeggings {$44.50} I saw these in American Eagle the other day and fell IN LOVE with them! I told my Mom I wanted them and she was like...ya..nice try haha! Sometimes she doesn't understand what's going on in my mind...but what is is the picture of Jessica Alba that I saw! I need them!! :D

2. Joe's Jean The Skinny {$158.00} I love Joe's Jeans and now that they have just about every color of jeans (that not going to lie I've been eyeing forever since I saw the ad in Teen Vogue Magazine!)

3. Fire Skinny Stretch Denim Jeans {$42.00} I love stretch jeans! They are so comfy! You know sometimes when it's that time of the month or sometimes you just eat that extra helping of delish food and well...you feel that your jean's button is about to break and hit a piece glass so it cracks...(like from a movie haha!) Gotta love stretch jeans <3


Well I hope you enjoy this post! Tell me what you think of the Red pants trend!! Do you like it? Have you followed it?!

Hey Dolls!!! So here what I wore yesterday to the school play! Hope you like! Sorry for the poor quality of the video...I filmed it on my MacBook. Well, today was pretty boring..but I did finally get my Christmas Tree!! Yey!

Day 9 : Color Blocking vs Natural!

Hey Dolls! So, I ment to have a video post for you dolls today but I had to go to a school play, then it was like 10 o'clock and now it's to late... :( I was/am still very tired! I have to make this post kind of quick tonight because I have work at like 8 o'clock tomorrow...wah...but hey! It's more money to put towards another purse or new clothes! I'm going through a "My clothes are so last year" thing right now. It's more like "I still have clothes from the 7th and 8th grade that I still wear...can you say embarrassing! Ok! Well here are a few Polyvore sets that I just created!

Call of the Wild. by elizzabethhopegmf featuring oversized handbags

Fur Vest with a Sweater Dress! by elizzabethhopegmf featuring long tops


Hope you like!! Tell me what you think of the two looks! One is more of the color blocking side of fashion and the other more natural! What look do you like better?! I can't say...I like them both but that's only because I don't just have one style...I have many! :D

Day 6 : Girl Meets Fashion Christmas Wish List!

Hey Dolls! So I decided to do something different today and make my Christmas Wish List! Even though I pretty much know what I'm getting this year I think I may be in for a few surprises!

1. iPad! I've been wanting an iPad for a while now! I need something that's easy access when needing to look up something quick and an iPhone isn't really it...Plus I want to get a Nook but instead the iPad has a book store which I can buy books on it! and Magazines! Just sayin...
