clever trick.

Last night my best friend Amanda and I drove down to Portland's east side...
(the side of Portland my sister says i look like I am from) We went down to
the Wonder Ballroom for and AMAZING concert... Landon Pigg (Love in a Coffee
Shop) and of course my personal favorite...A FINE FRENZY. Ally Sudol is and
has been a favorite of mine for quite sometime..and thankfully Amanda shares
the same love for emotional music as i do. Had some drinks in the upstairs
bar during the opening bands... but of course when ms. sudol was ready to
play we dug our way to the front of the stage...(okay okay Amanda dragged me
up there! But i am just not a pushy concert goer) The show was incredible
and wouldn't have been the same had she not played and had i not teared up to
my most favorite song ever: ALMOST LOVER and thanks to amanda for the should
to cry on.



Now are you just about dying over this new vintage addition to my closet? Yes!
I am talking bout the red silk, sequin and beaded blouse i bought this week at
one of the east side vintage shops. It pretty much wears phenominally... and i
only have a few minor touch ups needing to be repaired in the sequin department.
But this piece has gotta be one of my new favorites!


kisses.

LA love.

Tia. oh my amazing friend from all over the place...currently reppinLA...
she was in town for work. And that of course means time for us to play.
Like EVERY weekend Tia is in town we both decided to do
some much needed
Goodwill shopping which meant finding some hot hot vintage items but
of course not getting out downtown til about 11. Parking
was then a tragedy
so unfortunately we both gotta even later start on a way late night out.





(check the gold necklace: my goodwill find of the day-
its GIVENCHY baby!)







East...once again...twice in one week? well ya. always loving the NY vibe
and thankfully we went cuz the DJ was off the hook. Made for such
an amazing night...drinking...catching up on our lives. plans.boys.shopping...
bumpin to the beats...gotta little shakin that booty in toward the end of
the night. Cannot wait to go back..too bad Tia was only on loan for the
weekend. Next time you see her..it's gonna be cuz i am trippin it up down
in my hometown visiting Tia. (Hopefully in November..fingers crossed)

after.

oh brooke... you look so sexy now that i got my hands on you!
And wow can i remind you how our much needed hair salon dish
session made us both feel soooo much better and made you so sexy.
New hair... glammed up for working Portland Fashion Week...
start of a new you! Gotta say i am love love loving the HOT
red hair. super fly.

(your ex doesn't even know what he's missing out on...)

sucks to be him

whiskey sour.

Last night. Off work late from the salon. Had to get ready fast & head
downtown to meet my girl brooke (we kickit at the dance studio/she's
a stunning fashion week rep). Her man was spinnin at East (swanky
little NY scene lounge in SW) and i just needed a little whiskey and
venting after last week's heartbreak. One thing i can say about my
relationship gone sour...(or rather him freaking the f*** out)...is that
it's kept me skinny as can be. Able to throw whatever the hell i want
on and feel amazing. Rockin that body out! Threw on my skin tight jeans
and hot black snakeskin platform heels... belted this blue sequin top
(my thriftstore find) with a vintage black braided belt to show off a bit
of sexy midriff and dropped the neckline off the shoulder (so wish i had
a full body shot of the outfit...everyone was in LOVE with it) So glam yet
so laidback. And sexy as anything.

amazing what a postbreakup body does for the wardrobe.

kisses.

have her baby tomorrow morning. having a brunch date together
at the best french restaurant in Lake Oswego. mmm......so good

kisses.
