"At the Library"


"Hey there lookin' at me
Tell me what do you see
But you quickly turn your head away
Try to find the words I could use
Don't have the courage to come up to you"




 "What is it that drives me mad
Girls like you that I never had"

My favorite part of the entire ship thus far! The library was so pretty I wanted to stay in it the entire trip. It was really relaxing and quiet in there. They also played some cool instrumental music. I want a library in my home so bad, one day I will though! This was on our first night abode the Carnival Inspiration. We dressed up to go to the clubs that night. We ended up not going....I don't remember why though. Regardless we had a fun time :)

I got this dress on sale and they have free shipping in the U.S. the detail on it is amazing, but I recommend it for small busted girls because it can run a little small and tight around that area. These photos make me miss my trip sigh :(

Hope you guys are having a great week!

"Spanish Bombs"



"Spanish bombs rock the province
I'm hearing music from another time
Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava
I'm flying in on a DC 10 tonight"



"Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
yo te acuerda oh mi corazón
Spanish bombs, yo te quiero infinito
yo te acuerda oh mi corazón"

Today I got back from my five day cruise. It went to Catalina and Ensenada Baja, Mexico. It was so much fun! The ship was amazingly beautiful. The free food was the best! The only thing that sucked was that I got really sick on the last day. It was the day at sea and the ship parked in the middle of no where and there were so many waves the ship rocked back and forth. I couldn't even walk without feeling like I was going to puke. I spent that entire day in bed :(

Well these photos are from our night in Baja. We visited down town after the beach and dinner. It was such a pretty night. It was a nice and clear, but it was so cold! The sights were cool and the shops were fun. It was pretty late and most of the stores were closing so we went back to the ship after about an hour. You tend to stick out like a sore thumb walking next to a white guy haha. I didn't want to get kidnapped! The only think I bought at downtown was a bag of hot Cheetos :)

Have a great weekend!

Iron Fist Sample Sale

Yesterday I went to the 2nd ever Iron Fist Sample Sale. I missed the first one because I had to work, so when this one landed on a day I had off I had to go! They had it in the back of this really snazzy coffee shop in LA. I think it was still part of Korea Town, but it was really nice. I'm thinking about going back there to have lunch and coffee soon. I got there at around 8:30 and there were 4 people already in line. It was suppose to start at 12, but they let us in an hour early! Everything was $15 and under. Keep in mind it is a sample sale so all shoes were mostly size 6, some 7 and 8. The clothes was all size small and some medium. They also had a lot of purses, wallets, sunglasses, belts, and more accessories. Here's what I got:



I love the detail on these heels. Everything from the little hearts on the leather to the roses with sugar skulls in them. They are perfect for summer! Originally $60 and I got them for $15.


These heel are my favorite! You know I'm a sucker for anything with studs. The lace detail makes it look so sweet. These are $70 online, but I only got them for $15!


This is a close up of the print on the skirt I got. Im so in love with the tropical edgy look! The coral color looks really nice on tan skin. It also has pockets! This skirt is online for $40 and I paid $10. This is also the same print on the bikini I got. It's online for $50 and I paid only $10. I can't wait to wear these pieces on my trip to Baja Mexico with my love ❤


This is the print on the blouse I got. I wanted the dress with this print, but the didn't have it. :( I still really like this though! It goes of around $30 and I got it for $5.

So now you know why I love sample sales. You always get the best deals. Follow Iron Fist on Instagram for the announcements to the next sample sale. I had such a fun time I can't wait till the next one! Have a great week!

"Love Cats"


 
"We move like cagey tigers
We couldn't get closer than this
The way we lovecats
The way we talk
The way we stalk
The way we kiss"



"We slip through the streets
While everyone sleeps
Getting bigger and sleeker
And wider and brighter
We bite and scratch and scream all night
Let's go and
Throw all the songs we know"



Nightcat Dress by UNIF from Karmaloop

Are you guys cat people, dog people, or both? My parents never let me have a cat :( I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so I guess I'm a dog person haha. Although I'm hopping to having a cat one day! I really love this cat night dress from UNIF. It fits snug and has rad cutout features. I got it on Karmaloop for only $38. Such a great steal! It was on sale plus I used the new rep code they gave me and saved an extra 20%! Karmaloop has such great deals. Go on now and start saving, just use the rep code AF182 to save big!

Some other exciting news is that next week is my last week of school yeeeee! I am so happy for this semester to come to an end. I'm that much closer to reaching my goals and dreams. Soon I'll be in the lab using my forensic skills. Gives me the chills thinking about it. For now though I have a forensic analysis 20 page paper to finish and a 10 page correction paper to start on that's due next week. Homework is never finished until finals are over with.

Are you guys as excited for summer as I am? Hope you guys have an amazing weekend!
