blossom.

spring is in the air.
i can feel it. i want to wear sandals. and lie on the grass and feel the sun sunshine on my face.
me and sophie even decided that sometimes when your getting ready in the mornings and you want it to be a warm day, you purposely wear spring clothes HOPING that since you wore that, it will be sunny. Usually it ends up not working and the weather does what it wants anyways. BUT the last few days have made me so excited for the warmer weather....bring it onnnn.

dream wardrobe.

The other day as I was flipping through fashion magazines, which is a daily thing for me at school since they are everywhereeee- Vogue, Elle, Glamour...and all the inbetween- a idea popped in my head. I asked my friends if they could have any celebrities wardrobe, whose would they choose? Some knew instantly and others sat with a pondering look on their face. Then the question was returned to myself. And i sat there and I really didnt know my answer. Its been a couple days and it keeps coming back to me, like i have to answer it or I wont be able to sleep at night. So as the week has gone by and I've been flipping through magazines I came to a conclusion that I really couldn't just pick one. But I could pick one of my favorites to share with you and a couple reasons why. Although I dont technically have ONE favorite, I chose Hilary Duff. I guess its the mood I've been in lately. Her style is something that I feel is already down my alley and I have always loved her and think she has become sooo beautiful and an amazing fashion icon. Take a look for yourself.




goal: look this good at the grocery store.








of course i love anything in the all black area.












want want want. those shoes? want.



want these shoes as well..

















gorgeous.



a little bit obsessed with this color.




okay you catch my drift. im just a tad in love. besides her wardrobe i think she does an amazing job on her makeup. whatever shes doing, its working....and its working really good.

3 loves. 2 peeveees.

i feel like i always do the same posts on my blog over and over...but it seems to be the only thing popping into my head. since i happen to be a person who changes their likes and obsessions quite often, i am always finding new things that im into..(until im over it and move on to bigger and better) but ill switch it up and add some things im NOT loving at the moment. aka some pet peeves of the moment.



I am Lovvvinggg:

going through my moms (&aunts,&gmas) old jewlery.
im finding some great things! just the other day my niece came upstairs wearing this bracelet that she found in the playroom and i have offically taken a liking to it and i wear it just about everyday. who knew! I also found some great necklaces that i can pile on top of another just for fun. oh but the best is yet to come, my nana has all of her jewelry locked in a safe and i am going on a mission to get that thing unlocked ASAP! it will be like digging for treasure :)


eggs&toast.
if you know me well...you already know this well. but im obsessed. i could eat it everyday. oh wait? i already do! its my favorite thing to make...k wait, its like the only thing i can make. BUT I make them GOOD!


90210.
its back on! i missed it for the 3 months it wasnt on...but BOOY OH BOY was i excited when it returned. such a great little show- i do enjoy it.



NOOOOOT loving so much.


ringtones.
im just gonna put it out there. i do not like them. i just dont. if you have one that is okay and it doesnt mean that i dont like you. but i just dont see the point in all the sudden having a song come on ABRUPTLY for 2 seconds fun? and it does the same part of the song over and over and over....and it ruins songs. not to mention how awkward is it when your in class or something and someones phone rings and the song is absolutely ridiculous and the person is frantically searching through their bag to hurry and turn it off and their face is the color of a tomato...and im thinking to myself welllp i dont think the 2.99 for that ringtone was worth it. i prefer the great and classic mode of vibrate. that way its not going to bother anyone, offend anyone or make me sick of a song. perfect.



i think that driving back and forth to salt lake has made me a little bit of a crazy person. i have like little fights with other cars and other cars are my friend and its like this weird other world i live in. someone is tailing me and suddenly im frantically thinking...okay buddy i cant move cus there is another car in front of me so if you would like to be my trailer thats fine but at least turn off your lights so it doesnt bug me. then i snap out of it and im like, k really lauren? just drive like a normal person.. anywho that went off on a tangent...my real thing that bugs me is when people speed like lightening past construction workers...major dont in my world. okay you dont have to be a snail just cus there is orange cones but if people are honestly working...slow the heck down. seriiiiously. i guess i just think if i had someone i loved who was out there working i would want people to be respectful and slow down.

a day in the life.

At Paul Mitchell we sometimes have days that are a little slower with clients. So instead of just working on our dolls, one of our teachers gave us a little challenge! She told us to get into little groups and choose a model, do their hair and make up and make they an outfit out of trash bags. So we did just that! We had an hour and half and so it was all super thrown together, didnt really get to think too much we just had to do and use our creativity! So we did- Chelsea, Sophie, and Keri did the hair and outfit and I did the makeup. Katy was our beautiful model. (Poor Cates was on a job so she couldnt help but she was our biggest fan). Enjoy!

If I could..I would.

Let's all admit it, when looking back at pictures or so, you think to yourself..."I thought that looked GOOD? WHAT was I thinking!?". K so maybe it is just me, but I highly doubt it. So in Glamour magazine every month they have a celeb choose a picture of them from some event that they now think back and wonder what was going on in their mind. It got me to thinking about some of my bad moments from the past where I wish I could undo. Fact: I simply cant. BUT it can make for a funny blog about things I defineatly SHOULD'NT do again. ever.





Wrong. all wrong. You could perhaps call me the original "Snooki"- but lets not get too ahead of ourselves. At this time, I was super insecure and having a lot of hair trauma. It was thinning, falling out, not growing...so I thought a big bump on my head would fix it? Uhmmm? It actually just called for much more attention than I wanted from the boys...in a bad way. So yes, its a tender subject- but I've got to that point where I'm okay with it. Sure it looked ridiculous...but I rocked it, and none the less I dont do it anymore. Thank gooooodness.





Not the best picture, but I tried. Do you see those lips shinning in the light? Oh thats cus they were WHITE. All four of us. WHITE lips. Looks as if we dipped our lips in powdered sugar, or just ate a powdered donut. No biggie- cus I thought it looked SMOKIN HOT! No. N-O. I am so down with the nude lip look but the white iced over lips? Good grief Lauren.







Well...there sure is a lot going on on that hat. I remember when the Ed Hardy phase hit, I wanted a shirt so bad and my mom looked at me and was like uhmm...heck no they are ugly. I was so bugged. Now I bless her heart. I think Ed Hardy is theee worst trend to ever hit the Fashion world. Well I actually think any clothing with too much going on is just hideous....but Ed Hardy wins...(next to Affliction and LagunaBeach jeans). But thank goodness Ed Hardy has left my life. Rip. ps...those silver shoes of yours? BUHBYE!






Head to toe. From the undershirt, to the flip flops. All from Abercrombie. YIKES. times 100. I dont even know where to start with this one. Everything I owned was from that awful store. Every single thing. You should have seen me throwing it all out...afterwards I had NOTHING to wear anymore. But thank you Abercrombie, we were basically dating for a while but I am SO glad that we broke up. Best decision I think I have ever made.
