How Could I Forget?

Saturday night, alone in my cozy light knit and leggings. Now I feel that my senses are calmed and I begin to to think about someone. Just sipping some calming tea and thinking why I can't stop, my head feels so light. I know I'm smiling. Cannot deny that I'm feeling something?

Feeling so happy this weekend. It was so cool and grey skies all weekend. Sigh, fall is my favorite weather. Little snapshots from my week at school. Time flies so quickly, I just wish I could keep up.

Outfit details from Wednesday

Current favorite lip products right now

I tried to style my hair. It looked really cute that night. 

ps. Enjoy the week! Drink tea and smile more.

Almost Time

Less than a week for the first day of class. Oh snap, I'm still on the search for a new back 2 school outfit. But I have to buy all my textbooks for the semester. This is one of those choices, where I know I have to do the right thing. Balancing a budget is one of the reasons
 I'm trying to accomplish few goals by the end of the year.
1. Trying to learn french or at least flirt with a French accent.


2. Stop eating at Panera every day. Although it's really hard, I need to learn to bring lunch from home.


3.  Write more often: express my feeling to others and ultimately improve penmanship.


Also, hoping this week will be awesome. Thanks for reading!

ps. All pictures from my insta.gram @razzledazzleme. It's still the best thing ever!

La Cantina

Oh Happy Friday! I'm certainly pleased to be done for the week. I had a terribly ache in my mouth and finally visited to the dentist. I had to get a filling! Now it's done I feel so much better.
Thursday night, My mom and I went out to get some drinks (cheers), and Mexican food at Cantina Laredo.  Apparently it's a chain that recently open. I've been checking out tons of newer restaurants opening around Omaha. I'm so stoked to see fresh new concepts and taht Omaha is upcoming in the restaurant scene. My mom and I order a freshly made guacamole and house special margaritas. Also, Thursdays are ladies night, meaning all ladies get discounted drinks until 7pm!

Later on, we had to try the ahi tuna tacos, a mix of sushi and Mexican. So delightful and I smashed the whole plate.

Alright I'm getting hungry from these pictures. Enjoy your weekend, eat well and have fun!

Late Summer Dreams

Once again, another eventful weekend. I finally saw The Dark Knight Rises, I guess you can says I'm obsessed with comic books and superheros. I sat on the edge of my seat during the whole movie. I just  hated all the spoilers about the movie before I saw it though. I had to avoid tumblr and facebook for a few days.  I hope you gals and guys enjoyed it as much as I did!

Also I found myself coveting these beautiful items. I feel my little heart skipping. Such little details always make me feel so weak. I gasp for air staring at a pair of shoes more than watching the Olympic and spotting a beautiful, well-formed male athlete. I guess my whole life is filled with shameless problems.

ps. These are such a dream and I might have not notice these until recently.

Current Beauty Favorites: July

Even though it's been super hot, I still have found a few beauty items that I just adore. I'm not a typical make up blogger but never let that stop me.

I'm a typical lipstick girl. I have a small obsession with finding the perfect pink shade and nude nail polish. Below I post a few product I recently bought and loved after using.  Never forget to check out the latest trends after fashion week.  The last picture is a general idea of my make up collection. I most mixed lots of high end and drug store brands.  
What are your current beauty items in your cabinet? Do you have any thing you keep on buying?

Time for another small Fourth of July celebration, and truth be told I'm still nervous around fireworks. Just a few things I'm looking forward for the rest of the week.
  • Eating Fresh Food, will be cooking outside all day tomorrow
  • Tanning poolside, no worries I always use sunscreen 

  • Shiny Jewelry , new necklace found a Target




  • Nail Polish, so inspired to decorate my nails. 
Best Wishes to all my readers. Time to go see some fireworks and drink some magaritas!

Happy Fourth of July!!!!

Multicolored Dreams

Remember being a child and dreaming about finding a pot of gold around the rainbow? Or if you were a 90's child you fantasized about Skittles falling from the sky.  At dinner, we all talk about seeing a rainbow for the first time.  I recalled that a young girl brought up that she has never seen one to me when I was about 12 or 13. I wonder if she ever found one.

I went downtown Omaha, to see the debut of the rainbow. It's a giant mist sprayer that reflects a rainbow over the top of the Bemis building.  Science and art coming together to become something playful and inspiring. Also you get soaking wet!  Perfect for the extreme heat, I would recommend checking it out you're coming to Omaha!

White and Black

 I might be the only girl that is loving this heat. Just spent some time sitting poolside, sadly I did not see any cute guys that qualified to be blogged about. Bummer!

Not lame, was finding a really cute black and white top last weekend at JC Penney. Also I picked up this gray clutch from the nearby Goodwill for a small reasonable price. Summer sales are just starting but I've hit a few a my favorite for deals on some quality items. Have you found any thing special during the sales?
Also only a few more weeks until my next trip! Summer is moving so quick, I feel like I barely have time to blog. LE sigh, I have to go to prepare tonight's dinner.

Summer In Your Eyes

Taking my time to post a small summary of my week.  I can't believe the month is half over. My time has been to devoted to reading. Inspiration is coming from being outside of my room. I talked about making a bucket list for this summer and even the rest of the year. 

Just thinking of ideas, is a distractions from my own realities and some sad events that have occurred. I don't enjoy expressing any negativity, because I would  like to become more of an optimist. Listening to some music and reading, it is honestly the best therapy. Also I've been drinking more tea. Enjoying life, right now, dears! 

ps. Enjoy the pics. Follow Me @razzledazzleme

Better Girl

Happy Wednesday dear readers! Oh, I've been working on some things this week. I've been a little busy to respond and read everyone's blog post. I've added a few tunes to this summer playlist on my Spotify account. What have you've been listening to lately?

Still Shining

Summertime is time for myself. It is time for discovering. Exploring the city and to getting to know others. Perhaps, I can find a summer romance?

I sought shelter from some crappy weather last weekend at few art galleries that had free entry and stayed open later. It was quite chilly and drizzled a little bit. My friends and I walked around critiquing the art, or pretending to critique it and drinking the free wine.  I'm never quite sure if my opinion on art matters. Anyways I'm taking my time to re-watch a few french films and later who knows what I'm doing. Too many plans and invitation this weekend. C'est la vie!

In case you're wondering, I'm in the downtown area or the Old Market. Wearing: Zara blazer, Edge top via Marshalls, Vigoss Jeans, Steve Madden purse, Sam Edelman flats and jewelry from random place. I honestly need to remember these things but I never buy expensive pieces. Does anyone know how to buy jewelry? I still find more appeal in costume jewelry, than real gold or silver and precious gems.

Spring and The Storm

The rain came back but I didn't let a little bad weather keep inside. I browse a few of my favorite stores. I did buy a few items: a pair of wedges, from Dillard's clearance, tangerine dress from Express, striped blazer and he glass perfume bottle from Marshall's.
Now, time is all I have right now. Classes have finally ended and I feel free to do what I enjoy. Take a small breathe of relief. Snap a few photos of my favortie things in my room. Finally, about to enjoy a few films on my Netflix queue. Any ideas what I should watch?

Thanks for your comments loves!!!!!!

Don't Make Me Cry....

I'm feeling so much better today.  I'm already done with two classes.  It might be the middle of the week but I feel like getting a few drinks and celebrating. All my friends and I have plans to get drinks after our finals. I guaranteed by Saturday I will be dancing in the bars. Who else is excited for summer parties?
I have a few items I would like to accomplish a few goals this summer. Summer is a time to pursue your passion dears! I'm always trying something new and exciting. I plan visiting a few cities and dedicating time to perfecting my French. Of course, I want to what are your goals for summer?

Also these cupcakes are just making me drool. I can't help but adore anything that's loaded with sugar.

Also obsessed with this Pink Martini song! Such a perfect video for anyone that is obsessed with France. I hope I can go plan a visit right after I graduate.



Enjoy the rest of the week dears! I hope this post made you smile a little.

Sigh, why did spring break have to end? I'm just even more anxious for the end of semester. Don't you feel like, just passing right through all the boring stuff and straight to summer. I will always love summer. Below are just a few things I'm in love with, most are classic but a few current trends. Always finding more inspiration for this season via tumblr!

Lovely Spring

Time to celebrate the arrival of spring! It's so wonderful to wear a light layers around and not worry about my freezing my feet to near frost bite. I'm so ready to clean out my closet and put together more thrilling outfits for spring and summer. I'm also out buying new sandals and shorts for my beach vacation in May!  I still need a new beach bag and sundresses. Le Sigh,  I still have 7 more weeks until departure but I shall keep on day dreaming about sitting poolside and drinking mojitos.

Also, just a few of my favorite things right now:

1. Spa Treatments at home. I love how my skin feel after a mask treatment. I also currently love those Simple Cleansing wipes for a quick refreshment.
2. Free Coffee. These little frappucino drinks are so delightful.
3. Finding the perfect dress. My sister went shopping with me at a nearby Dillard's clearance store to find a some sweet spring clothes. She left with a gorgeous red Calvin Klein dress, as seen below. I struck out with the clothes but found two heavily discounted pairs of shoes. Only spent 28 dollars on two shoes!!
4. Speaking on shoes, I finally step outside in these glitter flats from Target. Such a great way to glam up a simple outfit for running errands.






Have a lovely week! Bisous!

just a little bit

I just hate those days when I have nothing plan. I typically end up baking and online shopping. I really want to change my wardrobe this school year. I feel so plain some days. I know that it's natural to want to chnage things around and I look forward to post more during the fall.

I'm obsessed right now with lingerie. I can't but keep on stocking up at stores like Victoria's Secret. There are so many lovely choices over at Antropologie; here and  here .

How To Survive A 120 Heat Index

I'm not the type to complain about summer. In fact, I really need to moved somewhere that doesn't suffer from a frigid, icy winter. But holy shit, I'm fucking melting. Listen up kids, I can't control this weather but I don't want pass out from heat exhaustion. I guess this heat isn't going away soon, so I want to get creative and have fun. Besides, I only have a little over until I go back to college. But since none of my friends seem to be in town. I have to entertain myself all day on tumblr.



I have no idea why but I'm so into this look I adore this top. I wish I could find a store that sold it.

This Fire is Out of Control

I had one super busy weekend, that included attending two parties and a baseball game. I went to see the Yankees play in Kansas City against the Royals.  I won't deny I'm not a Yankee fan because I'm a loyal to the Red Sox. But here's a picture, I wore stripes but I refuse to put on anything that has a Yankee logo. Also I'm very proud to show off for the first time my new fedora. I purchase from the Urban Outfitters sale. I'm in love with hats but I only have two summer hats. 

Outfit shot

(I pixel out the logo)


Below, is an outtake from the photo shoot. I had last week at with my friend, Liz. She collects vintage and definitely has a more fascinating style then me. Her mom gave her this suit, but sadly that skirt does not fit her. I tried it because we were putting together outfits. She wants to sell the suit but I told her to give to me. I would love to wear both pieces together and separately. Too bad I forgot to snap a picture of the buttons, they are so lovely.


suit


Anyways, I understand why she would want to give up something so special. I have plenty of items from my mom, that I should get rid because they aren't part of my style or it doesn't fit me right. 
So do have anything in your closet that is sentimental? 

ps. Much love to all of you whom commented in my last post.

Hot HOT



I finally have a new blogging goal set for myself. 
I'm going to put together a decent outfit and post one outfit each week. 
Here's my first attempt, it's blazin' hot outside, so it's  time for me to drink a slushie and lay around my laptop watching movies.

No Jewelry or fancy bag.


Just a cute dress from Target, with a bra peeping on the side and headband from f21 .

I was thinking about adding a belt but I don't have many


Closeup of shoes

These shoes are one the best things I bought this summer.
So comfy and they make the lamest outfit look cool.


I want to know what items have you've been wearing constantly?


Lastly, for my readers, I got a new code for the 10% discount at Eshakti.com, just type in annaadams123 when placing an order and the code will be good until July 31, 2010
