I may be completely in consistent, but I know what I like....hell yes I do ;)

Wow...does it ever feel like time is flying by...or depending on how you look @ it...not? Ok I realize yes, that sentence made almost no sense, but let me explain my little lovelys. School has going by at the speed a crippled snail might go through school. Like a turtle with a cane going to Freshman year...like me...being extremely over school...but then again, I checked the date on my last post and it was like 2 weeks ago?!! How did that happen...im neglecting my poor little blog that I love so dearly...

But it feels like i have no time for anything else except school, homework, sports, and um...lets see once thats done, theres more school....i get home @ like 6:30 every night b/c thats when my sports practice ends, is that insane or am i?

Plus i havent even had time for inspiration for posting.....but i have been checking up on NY Fashion week, so I decided to pick some of my faves...the highlights...courtesy of me of course...:)

NYC's Fashion Week Favorite Picks:

Proenza Schouler

This is so adorable...can i please have it transported into my fall wardrobe...

The giant navy sweater is to die for, and the bubbly skirt/dress is something that i want...o wait..i want all of it...drat...

L.A.M.B.

Let me just say...why can Gwen Stefani do EVERYTHING so fucking perfectly!!!???! jealousy....

Like a picnic...

I would totally wear this entire outfit...I LOVE it..

The dress is adorable...the vertical stripes..<3

This little leopard print rain coat is the cutest most retro thing ever...hello obsession...

This is like an opptical illusion...in the 60's with adorable white wayfarers...

This dress is gorgeous....im a sucker for black over nude...i just love it...and the bubble hem...mmmm...

ThreeasFour

I think they're a relatively new designer, and I read about them in Elle Collections...but I loved so many of their peices...

Nude assymetrical dress...that looks extremely comfortable...i want it...

This is so pretty....I love the ruffle in the center...

Such and awesome dress...the colors remind me of rasperberry and green tea...and i am a complete random freak...its cool though...

Marchesa

Ok....every single one of their dresses is so amazingly GORGEOUS....i dont know how i chose 3...

This reminds me of Uli's couture dress in Project runway...i love it..

This gold brocade(i think) mini is so cute and elegant at the same time...hmmm...

This is honestly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen...dont you agree...i mean it looks like a giant rose...its so gorgeous...

Marc by Marc Jacobs

This little structured navy dress is so simple and chic...I loved it...and the little ruffle on one half of the bodice makes it strangely unique...




This outfit is sooo adorable...the orange skirt w/ the bow blouse it something that I so wish I could pull off...damn it...



Ok, I honestly am in love w/ this outfit....it is so eclectic and adorable...the little brownish greenish shorts w/ the totally randomly colored blue bow vest and red striped t-shirt is the best thing ever!!! we're all drawn to different things...i am drawn to little geeky outfits apparently...

hahah...you wonder why this is on here? ok no guy would ever wear that....i just put it on there b/c it cracked me up, although i like the shorts for myself...is that wrong?

Zac Posen

1. I love him...

2. Thats it...i just love him...

The color of this dress is amazing...like the bottom of the ocean...

Ok is this the coolest thing you've ever seen or what? its supposd to look like stormy clouds...I <3>

Ok, so on to London fashion week I think...ill try and post again soon...but things are so busy...

DOWNLOAD: "Only Lovers Left Alive" The Long Blondes...i read about them in Nylon @ camp, and I honestly love this song...the chorus is addictive and I love the name of their band...the long blondes...i wonder how they are such genius' to thing of that...if i had a band i would name it something lame like...the cool people...or....cats and dogs...i am a retard...

enjoy school...not....

xoxo

Bella

Yes! I am still alive...and just as talkative as ever...did i spell that wrong?

Hey guys, sorry I drifted off the radar for a while...i got back from camp and everything just got so busy all of a sudden, and I havent had ANY time to post, which actually makes me quite pissed and sad b/c I love my little blog and all my readers <3....There will hopefully be a new post up tomorow....till then :)
Oh wait...since i have been neglecting my blog, here's a little mini tidbit for you little fashionistas to chew on...
One of my favorite fall shows....Stella McCartney...I want this for fall...the whole thing...and thats why they call it a daydream...*breaks down to tears*...

I actually really like how the extra long slouchy cardigan is under a extremely power women chic coat...its such a good juxtaposition...and i sound like a huge nerd...i like the contrast

Ok this sweater is honestly my life...i want to marry it and make little polar bear babies with it...im not even kidding...yes i am ;P

This is one of my favorite looks...i saw it in InStlye and I'm obsessed...the grey sweater is PERFECT w/ just the white shirt, and it could be boring but BAM...amazing amazing red shoes!!! I love it...

This outfit is casual, but then again BAM amazing hot pink shoes...I swear Stella McCartney is a genius....

but one other thing...Daria Werbowy looks completley WAY TOO SKINNY in this picture...i mean check out her collar bones...i dont really know where i stand in the too skinny model thing.... i mean I understand if they're natrually skinny like that, b/c some girls are, but still we shouldnt all be expected to be a size 00 either...but she just looks unhealthy...thats definitely not sexy...

This dress just makes me happy...its like limey colored but then faded times 10 squared...the black shoes are a perfect chic touch...and yes Jessica Stam...girl crush...she's so pretty with her spooky icey blue eyes and I just love her as a model...and even though she's skinny too, she just looks healthier...or at least i think...

Ok that was a complete midgit post...but i promise there will be a longer one soon...

DOWNLOAD: "Forever Young"-Youth Group...this song is addictive...its so romantic and i love the lyrics and they're suprisingly easy to remember...plus it was Ryan and Marrissa's song... I <3>

xoxo

Bella

I'm BAAAACK....and the best part is, you didn't even know I was gone....quite sneaky I believe..;P

Wow....mostly I feel like a complete idiot....haha this actually is sort of sad....so I go to camp for 2 weeks, and I completely forgot to warn you guys. Acutally you must give me some credit, I didn't really "forget" forget....I actually almost didn't go, and then by the time I did, I had like literally 2 seconds to pack, and then when we were driving I remebered I hadn't warned you guys....my blog will be blogger empty for 2 whole weeks...I even tried unsuccesfully to get internet connection from my laptop in Nowhereville.....

Anyways...I'm BACK!!! Yay....mostly camped rocked my socks...i can't believe i honestly just said that in a sentence....whatever, I can say whatever I want to...so camp was extremely fun, and funny too....I loved my cabin, and suprisingly, I didn't really have very much technology withdrawal, although I did feel VERY guilty leaving my little bloggers all alone....;)

Did you know that Longs has a motto? I betcha didnt...dont lie...its motto is:

"Live Healthy. Live Happy. Live Longs"

Hahahahahahahahahahah, do you get it?! Live Longs...ahahah i am so amused...I developed my camp pictures there and I was very intrigued reading the motto on the photo thing....

Anywyas...I was trying to put up some pics from camp but my computer is being retarted...so hopefully it will work tomorow...oh wait, hold on...i can get some off the camp site...YAY...

We went canyoneering, which was repelling backwards down that waterfall behind us...basically it was amazing...i totally felt like and INTENSE rock climber ;)))

Colors dance....im in red....i'd say its the most attractive picture of me EVER....haha...dont you love the lurkish guy behind us....hahahah

For cabin theme day were were the rainbow...it was my idea...and what color do I get to be...GREY...whooppeee...shows what being a genius gets you...NOTHING!!!

My cabin...I <3 them..

Sooooo....who can believe that schools starting again....When I say "school" I say it in a scary Voldemort voice....I have literally 2 weeks, which I know is actually a long while, but it is going to be filled with Tennis practices and school shopping (i.e. the binder kind)....and I'm literally squeal when I say this.... BACK TO SCHOOL SHOPPING!!!!

Well aren't they the coolest kids ever...going to school...btw i like his face...bahaha

Today I got to do some with my lovely mother...she hates it when I call her that ;)....we hit Anthropologie

1st, and I have to say that I have found a pair of pants that I am literally in LOVE with....now don't kill me when I say this...but I have a newfound Gaucho jeans obsession....I can't help it...:)) and yes...if you feel you want to mock me, thats ok...I can take it...

I guess I've been wearing skinnies for so long, that having the wide leg is just so...EXCITING....i believe im getting way too worked up over this, but you try going to camp for 2 weeks w/ limited clothing, and NO full length mirror, huh? huh? try and get back to me ;)....\

And the Anthro site isn't letting me save the pic, but I was inspired to buy them b/c of this pic I saw of Cameron Diaz wearing a pair...

And we sort of have the same body type(hahha I like to dream i guess, since i do not really look like a moviestar ;) , and I thought they were so casually cute, that I had to race out and find a pair....seriously they are the comfiest thing ever....

Anyways....back to the back to school shopping....I hope i have a chance to do somemore, b/c I am seriously in a need for wintery clothes....although i do not deny that it doesnt really get wintery in CA, the temp drops to less then 65....crisis...

Although it is CA, a girl is in need of a few cooler weather peices....so I was in Malibu w/ my mom and I stopped @ Planet Blue, and I tried on honestly the most ADORABLE sweater dresses I have ever seen in my 14 years....they were so cute, but of course they were all like 300$, obviously my mom didnt let me buy them, so I was slightly depressed all day...

This was the 1st one:

I know it doesnt even look that cute, but it is....it is all crocheted and possibly the comfiest thing ever....by Catherine Malandrino who I believe is a genius...

This dress by Joie is a ten billion times cuter on, but I LOVE it....I tried it on in all grey and my mind was just spinning like a little hamster on one of those wheels about all the ways I could wear it....

I didnt actually try this dress on or have seen it in real life, but the little buttons are so cute...are you noticing how im leaning towards grey...its big this fall, but I've always LOVED it....

This dress is really cute, but mostly i just chose it b/c I want to ask, what in gods name is the model doing? Does she think shes being alluring or sexy b/c mostly it just looks like shes having ADD as she stares @ the photographer with NO feeling in her eyes whatsoerver... shes prob thinking "Wow...I really want that peice of candy....I've been thinking about it all day."Geeeeezzz...what are they teaching in modeling school these days?

DOWNLOAD:"Summer Skin" Death Cab for Cutie...this songs not new or anything, but I love it...its about summer and its sorta sad but such a pretty song...the lyrics are AMAZING...

Gosh this post took 3 frickin days for me to do, and its not even that long....well I'm back...I should be posting a lot before school starts....

xoxo

Bella

The new improved and halfway through the summer me...plus she's got something special...and something happy...and i love harry....i guess its the scar

This seems pretty early to be thinking about things like this, but I am actually UBER excited for back-to-school shopping...and no, not the kind where I spend hours at Staples slaving over which size binder is better for my 3rd period ancient civilizations class...i mean the kind where my mom takes me to buy.....ahhh let me just soak it in a little....new clothes...what a beautiful 2 sylables....the main reason in this, is because this summer had pretty much been the summer of my....drum roll please...transformation!...and its not even over yet...;P I know its great right?

My hair is actually growing....sounds like a weird thing to be excited about, but my friends constantly make fun of me b/c in all of 8th grade it seemed like it grew 1 inch(btw thats not true, i just trimmed it so it seemed like it wasnt growing)....its shoulder length and really blonde from being outside...CA cliche...but I cannot wait till its longer and im going to get a really edgy hipster cut....i am the coolest person i know haha yeah right...

I GOT MY BRACES OFF....its pretty self explanitory....:)))))))

And so far I've been eating really healthy and working out and i've lost 10lbs, so that means that back to school shopping is going to be extra fun....ahh exercise is a beautiful thing my friends...

I feel like a bad "self image" magazine, but....

Mmmm....that below is literally my weakness...i could eat a whole pint of Hagies Chocolate in one episode of Greys Anatomy...not a good sign....

I took a pic of these cupcakes in Malibu last year, b/c they were so frickin huge! Seriously, jumbo cupcakes...i sort of couldnt handle it...

5 Ways To Get Outside and Frickin Burn Some of that Icecream Sundae You Just Devoured....

1. Go on a bikeride....it honestly is very fun...bring some friends...or some adorable boys, a helmet, and a picnic...yum...

2. Go running on the beach....if you dont have a beach, move...no jk...but hit the pavement in brand new chic running sneakers and run until you cant breath...soothing... go to http://www.nike.com/ and customize some shoes so you can be the best dressed jogger there...

\3. Go for a hike...we all have to be living near some mountains...right? you will be dead on the way up...but the view at the top is worth it....that way you will feel like you accomplished something...

This is possibly the MOST unnattractive picture of my friends and I, but at least the view is gorgeous...i got up at 7 to climb the mountain like a frickin goat...im on the far right in the cool very-stylish-bought-in-the-boys-department-@-Target-Superman-shirt... this is to show that i actually hike...ha...

4. Take a swim....do some laps....one form of exercise where you DONT SWEAT...3 cheers..

5. Take up surfing so you can convincing fist bump, and say things like sick, rad, and dude that was off the hook....another plus, you can hit the lineup with all the adorable surfer boys...ahhh....

Now that I'm done my health lecture for the post, i have concluded that i found a new fashionista that i sort of...um....am in love with....yeah make fun....

KERI RUSSELL

I never really noticed her all that much, I mean I knew she was in M:III w/ Tom Cruise, but I just thought of her as another actress...then I was ready People Style Watch, and I saw this picture, below...and it really caught my eye...i mean its not that like flashy or eclectic as a lot of the other stars we see dressing, but I loved the classic-ness of the look....the blue buttom down, tucked in and rolled up, the classic blue skinnies, the black leather bag, and then the low brown wedge heels...even her hair looks low maitnence chic...and there it was...i was like...i WANT to pull off that look...seriously

She seems to really like rockin' this hat...which I sort of really like...and as long as she's pulling it off as chicly as she is...power to her...I like the purple scarf too...<3 id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5086551064728826562" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0SaMBvJDtyliCNMtMJ6HEKt1Dup-ufI5dIZGRxEjEx4jJJOoalJCg5YToPkb4EZHeK8ybdaUREL9hu-qWemi66N1ghvR-4vT8ot5Vk4kaeLC1N-lYjacMyZFLn1mbKtfh3wBhCw/s320/keri2.jpg" border="0">

Awww....she had her baby, and even here she looks low maitnence chic...the baby sling is really cute I think...

She looks gorgoeus and glam in InStyle...

I think this was for the Waitress premeire, but the color of the dress is gorgeous..and i love the halter/not halter ness of it...does that make sense? She black heeled and toed shoes are perfect match with the dress...the juxtaposition rules...

I just think she seems really nice and sweet...and I totally envy people who can wear whatever and look amazing....grrr...

On a totally new note...i found these on http://www.fredflare.com/ since they're having their annual "Next Big Thing" contest, where all these cool designers make cool edgy products and one gets chose...anyways you attach these on your Ipod earbuds, arent they adorable?? Seriously they are so cute...and my Ipod needs some I-ttitude...oh gosh its way too late to be blogging.....you get all three for $12 bucks....yay

OH! I saw Harry Potter last night...and it was SO good...seriosly my love is restored...not that it was ever wavering...I want to meet harry...go and see it, but get your tickets early, b/c it was all sold out....

DOWNLOAD: "Love Song" Sara Bareilles....very catchy...I downloaded her whole album on Itunes for like 7 bucks...i figured it was a bargain...she reminds me of Regina Spektor and Corrinne Bailey Rae mixed together...

xoxo enjoy summer while its still here...

Summer favorites and a trio of magical proportions...

I love lists....what can I say, they're fun....they entertain me...so I decided to list some of my favorite things about summer...after all it is one of the best times of the year...COMPLETELY school, obligations,and homework free....no stupid history papers to write....no geomatry problems to solve out....more time to devote putting my outfits together...the most important thing after all :)

MY FAVORITES OF SUMMER

1. Entire days spent dedicated to Harry Potter....sounds like the dorkiest thing imaginable, but insult Harry...insult me...grrr...I honestly love the series, I just reread the 5th and 6th books to get ready for the new movie and book....and i was like "WOW! they are really good"...so i spent a few sun drenched days outside with my nose immersed in the world of wands and wizards...it was the most fun i've had all summer...haha

2. Perfectly perfect summer sales...I got a shirt @ urban outfitters yesterday for 5$...it was the highlight of the week i must say...

3. Deliciously adorable boys....this one may need a sub-catagory...

A) The surfer boy...possibly the best breed of the species...defining characteristics: perfect golden brown tan, long lean muscles from days and days of ripping or shredding or whatever, shaggy shaggy brown or blonde hair(or brown w/ natrual blonde highlights from the salt water), board in hand, says things like "dude" "sick" "rad" "bottom turn" "cut back"...

B) The working boy...hottie hottie hot....defining characteristics: ambitious, will pay for things b/c he has the extra cash from "working", extremely cute lingering smiles ahhh, hot eyes they all have them i dont know why, may have a nametag...even better to meet him by...;)

$$$$$$$$

C) Random boy....love them....characteristics: you never see them again, like to lurk in public places where you can lurk right back at them, will make insane eye contact, usually shy-ish, nice smiles that make them hot...

D) Nerdy cool boy....subtle hotness, glasses which i find amazing, sweater vests, skinny jeans when its like 80 out, great eyes magnitized by glasses, most likely skinnier then me...haha

4. Saturdays spent watching movies...it doesnt sound summery, but when would i have time to do that during.................school....ugh

5. S'more hybrids, i'm saying cookie/marshamellow/cookie dough...makes you mouth water huh? My friend and i saw it in a book and we drooled over it for like 40 hours...we may possibly make them on her stove, which sort of strikes me as pathetic, but thats ok....at least we can EAT them...

6. Spending my afternoons on my deck...armed w/ magazines, SPF 30, and a smoothie...nice...

7. Speaking of smoothies, my recent discovery of blueberry banana...i must be retarted since it had been around for about one BILLION years...

8. The fact that I have lost 5 lbs being healthy and working out....:)))))

9. My hot trainer who my friend and i share for a very nice price actually....his eyes are like the dark ocean and i am farerly certain he thinks we are dingbats....oh well...

10. Summer music....the new CD's....now to think of it i really need to be making a summer playlist...

11. Sleeping in till 11:30 ON A MONDAY.....HALLELUJAH.....

12. A broken chocolate icecream cone....

13. The ability to rationally carry 4 pairs of cheapy sunglasses in my bag for when i need a "change"...go to pairs: Faux Aviators, Red Wayfares, Giant Hipster Black Ones, Rhinestoned Target Ones

14. My room's new beautiful maroony pink shade....3 cheers for redecoration! :D

15. Soccer camp....hours and hours of jumping and diving on the ground onto the fresh cut grass in the sweltering heat....YAY..i am excited though

16. Getting up @ 7 to hike...up a mountain, then dying on the way up, getting attacked by flies at the top, and running all the way down, in the space of 2.5 hours....

17. Buying fireworks...making a fire on the beach w/ damp wood and newspapers so it pretty much didnt light on fire at all....but the fireworks did :)) Under this should also go meeting a kid from Lebanon named Jorgo who hilariously followed you around all 4th of July...haha its true

18. Biking from my friends house to the beach.....and almost getting run over in the process...what a cliche...I did feel very California girl doing though, which I thought was extremely entertaining, I felt like the Beach Boys "California Girls" should be playing in the backround while I road my beach cruiser...

19. Summer concerts...I saw Gwen Stefani...she was amazng I honestly recomend going if you can get you hands on some tickets...

20. The ability to come back to school completely tan and mysterious.....i wish...

Back to the topic of Harry Potter...the Boy Who Live...the Chosen One...is it bad I know all of his names? Anyways....the actors who play Ron, Hermione, and Harry have become some of my favorites...the boys are adorably cute, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint...and Emma Watson has grown into being super pretty and pretty chic...

They all look so happy....and cute....I have to say I'm a Harry fan...I think Daniel Radcliffe is adorable, a little pale but still...

Emma's dress is gorgeous. The color is great with her complection(ugh I sound like some obnoxiously perky sales assosciate at like Perky Land), and she looks gorgeous...grrr... ..the necklace fits it perfectly, luckily she didnt choose something to clunk it up. And Katie Leung, I actually really like her outfit, the tights are quirky but I think it adds her personal chicness.. As for the guys, Daniel's pretty much pulling off the converse w/ suit...which is hard, but it looks hot, and Rupert just looks....hot in a I'm-not-trying-at-all-way, he probably isn't...:)



But now on to just Emma, who I think is gorgeous, I'm sure she's going to have a great career after HP....she seemes so clever too, just like Hermione :)) This photoshoot was from Entertainment I think? It came up on Google

My favorite pic of the bunch. The Wayfarers are insta-cool, and she's pulling them off SO well without smiling....She's too cool to be smiling...I would be laughing like a hyienna while the photographer glared at me...

SHE IS SO PRETTY....this is very I'll-pummel-you-through-the-wall-if-you-touch-me-but-i'll-still-look-gorgeous-doing-it....And those boots are to die for..

I love this photo too....again...those boots...

This photo is so cute and different from the other ones tho, she's all cute and pretty and girly, and her smile is adorable...I <3>

Emma's really grown up....
