Serious Obsessions!

So we all know that I have obsessions with music and photography, and even with fashion to a certain extent, but lately I have developed newer obsessions. So the new Gap commercials, who else thinks they are amazing? Every time they come on I smile and try to learn the chant. I think my favorite is the one of the little girls. You know what... I found the link to it just for those of you who haven't seen it.

Amazing!!!! So cute ha(:

Okay my other new obsession is Vogue. I've loved it for awhile but the other day I was in the store and told my mom I had to have it. I was broke and she refused to buy it for me! My amazing friend Megan bought it and gave it to me as an early Christmas present. Side note: My friend Megan is delightful, lovely, amazing, giving, I could go on and on! She is just the sweetest and one of my besties. Anyway back to my original subject: Vogue. Inside my Vogue obsession was another new obsession, Lady Gaga. Now I think she's weird and extremely inappropriate, BUT I love how she talks when she's interviewed, and I love how crazy she is when it comes to her dress. I think I've already expressed my longing to be her fashion designer but lately it has blown up into a huge problem! She was in the Hansel and Gretel photo shoot in the December issue of Vogue. Here are some pictures from this genius photo shoot:

 


























 
My absolute favorite picture in this shoot is the third! I think the story is eerie but these photos turned out amazing! Some of my friends also have an addiction to Lady Gaga. An example of this would be: I was out the other night at Applebee's with some friends and my family. Out of no where my friend Joanna pulled out an Elle magazine with Lady Gaga on the cover. We all started laughing but she kept talking about how Lady Gaga was in Elle and showed us the shoot! I don't know why people are so attracted to her. If any other person decided to wear a leotard with geometric shapes coming out of their shoulders we would find this weird and disturbing. So why can she pull it of? I don't know, maybe it's because she first introduced herself in as someone who was going to make these fashion statements, so we expect it. I don't know why but I'm glad and wish I was her designer. 

In the world of photography, well in the part of my world that deals with photography, I am wanting a new camera, lights and a tripod! I think these items will bring my photography to a whole new level. I'm hoping to sneak a few photo shoots into my hectic life! I need to make time for some more because my sister is becoming anxious! Well I got to go because it's my sister's birthday and she wants to play life with her familia! haha so cute! She turned 12 today so everyone wish her a happy birthday!(:

It's Good To Be Back

What have I been doing: Good question.... I don't really even know.

So I haven't wrote in awhile & I know I've been busy, but I don't really know what I've been busy with... Well I guess I just helped my mom with a Christmas Tea at our church. That was crazy, but fun. Then I had a photo shoot two days ago for some amazing people. I shot their Christmas card pictures. Other than that it's just been dance, school, and church! 

Since I've been gone I have come to some beauty conclusions. I do not like Burt's Bee's face wash, I am in love with Kate Hudson and David Babaii for Wildaid products, and my new hair cut takes a lot of time!

Burt's Bee's- They make amazing lip shimmers, and lip chap (a.k.a. chap stick), but not so great face wash. Every night when I washed my face I just felt like I was smearing honey on my face, which to a certain extent I was. It left a coating on my face and didn't seem to do any deep pore cleaning! I was left disappointed.

David Babaii for Wildaid- I think I told you guys before that I got their beach spray and that Kate Hudson teamed up with David Babaii to make this amazing product line....blah blah blah. Well I am in LOVE with my beach spray, and I found out that my grandma has their shampoo and conditioner, and my moms best friend has their hair spray and root booster! I found all of these products to be quite... lovely! (: I want to get my hands on all their products!!!!!!!! 

New haircut- I recently cut my hair short. I wanted a change and decided just to cut it off.... bad idea! I miss my long hair, it fit my face better and I didn't have to do anything when I got out of the shower, now I have to blow dry it, apply product and straighten. I cannot wait for it to grow out!

Anyway that's what's been going on fashion wise in my life. As for photography I have done three photo shoots since I last wrote a blog! They were super fun, and rewarding. I'll put some pictures up later!
