#instacapture v4

1. Kiddo patterns. Bold colours. Dots and blonde hair. Outline everything. Black is the answer.

On a side note, Blake Lively has a lifestyle page, say what?! PRESERVE launched very recently and has been a project of hers for about two years. Yes, everyone's saying that she is following the footsteps of our utmost favourite Gwyneth Paltrow (hat-tip to my buddy Sasha for showing me this list of her 45 greatest quotes of all time), but her site is branded to target a different audience (obviously) who are fairly young domestic women (obviously) with much less spending limit (obviously). It is a good venture for her as she has a phenomenal public image of the likes of women who can do it all and who has done everything. When she became the fashion star, she became more than a TV star. When she ventured out of her Gossip Girl role, she became a real actress. When she had long term relationships and spewed "real" thoughts on dating and marriage, she became a woman. When she married Reynolds, she became aspirational. Now, she's testing the water if she is aspirational enough to make online-dough, and if we can trust her. One thing for certain, I like her, but I hate her website. Too much filtering!!! Too much black background!!! Really awful font pairing!!! Sigh, it's a real shame, because the idea to pair a beautifully choreographed and awesomely packed content article with a "SHOP THIS STORY" tab is HONESTLY SO COOL. #E-CommerceContentWritingAtItsBest. I hope Lively does something about the design as she has a ton of room for improvement.

3. This brand is making clothes for me, I swear.

4. My proposed make up for the upcoming week. I also learned how to make cotton candy frappuccino, so if yer ever in Vancouver and visiting the Starbucks I work at... ask for a cotton candy frapp, ;)

#Instacapture is back! 

A) Silhouette - left: Evan Mason, right: The Blonde Salad 

 B) Body Art by Gian Paolo Barbieri 

C) Model looks by Staz Lindes 

She is the fun, flirty, cute 21 or 22-year-old model that has been sweeping everyone off the grounds on her social media channels. The thing about Staz is that she's not really the highest roller, yet or never, but she's captured the hearts of many in the online journaling industry. 

D) Perception and toning it down

E) PLUM + PINK + PINK

I don't even know what's happening here, except that this should be my look one day this summer.

Having time

I now have so much time lying around that I can afford to take a quick few shots of myself (EW, HOW NARCISSTIC) before I leave the house.

Them black shorts that I've been wearing basically every sunny day this past summer was a DIY impulse project. I was lucky that they turned out alright. I just folded the sides up and pinned them after chopping the legs off... Idk how to sew. When my mom saw them, she almost cried. They used to be her treasured Versace jeans. Oops. #BadDaughter

Then later in the day, we hit up THE TEMPLETON on Granville Street for some dindins. YUUUUUMMY VEGAN FOODS!! Ahhhhhh!! Diner deco!!! AHHHHHHH, crushin' hard.

Them black headband is just a piece of elastic-y fabric. You can basically wind ANYTHING around your head, twist it, then brooch it! You'll have the headband you want for the day. Since all of your face is visible, you MUST put a little bit of effort on your face. So I even put colour on my lips and lined my brows all dark and all. Okay, if you massively failed at putting nice makeup on your face, you can always cover yer face with sunglasses. GOOD! THAT'S WHAT I DID.

Ponytail Days

I've been wearing my hair in a ponytail the last three days. I think I'm going to make this happen. No more buns... just ponytails all the way ! I do know that it's only me who cares about this hair change (semi-crisis) but yeah. Just sayin'

Oh and super dark make up these days. Looks scary from far away. Just an ugly picture of a normal girl, I guess. Hah, checka checka-

And here are the old&new tracks around my life. Nothing summery since summer hasn't even peeked at us yet in Vancity. RAINCOUVER to be exact... even today, I'm sitting in a cafe like a lost kid, because I have NO UMBRELLA. Someone come and pick me up.. drive me back home, pweaze. :( :(

KING KRULE -- BABY BLUES

Theophilus London -- Big Spender Ft. ASAP Rocky

LYKKE LI -- SADNESS IS A BLESSING

Watch me drown then scoop me out-

American Apparel SHEEEEEEERRRRR

American Apparel SHEEEEEEERRRRR NAIL POLISH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

American Apparel does it again...... WOOS ME INTO THEIR STORE to support their awful company and CEO Dov Charney. It's a crime that the world has done to keep him alive -- a crime especially to women. Gugh.

Anyhow, they just launched a SUMMER LIMITED EDITION of SHEER nail polish which means that you can do all these AMAZING OMBRE stuff AT HOME. Lalallalallaaa. Not even that... how COOL is that when you can tell your friends that you just got SHEER nail polish. WOOOAAAAHHHHHHH. I want all six. ALL SIX PLEASE !!!






They retail for $9 each and you can get them at your nearest AA locations or online !
