Flower Bomb - This is seriously the best perfume EVER! I can't get enough of it. Words cannot describe how amazing it smells on!
This my friends, is Magnetic Nail Polish by Nails Inc. (thanks to my nail model, Jules, and to Amanda Olsen for filling me in on this fabulous nail poilish). - This is seriously the coolest nail polish. It makes painting your nails fun too. It goes on as a solid color, but after you have painted the nail, you hold a magnet over it and it gives it an awesome design that almost looks 3D. It's awesome!
Vuz Restaraunt and Vuda Bar - We went to the Vuda Bar for my birthday and it was great. Delicious appetizers, great wine and a fabulous view. It's a great place for us Utah county folk too (since it's just off of 123rd South). :)
Leo Sayer "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" - This is the happiest song ever. I truly am obsessed! Just ask my family and friends. They have heard it a LOT! Ha ha I can't help but sing along and dance every time I hear it. Fabulous!
Old Navy Activewear - To be honest, I am not the biggest fan of Old Navy's clothes. They never seem to fit me quite right, but then they started making workout clothes. I was skeptical at first, but I must say that I am super impressed. Their compression workout capris are the best things ever! Affordable and they fit great! They have really cute sports bras and workout tops too!
It has been far too long since my last blog post, therefore this will be the biggest blog overload ever! There is too much to type, so I will let the pictures do most of the talking.
Speaking of pictures, I have had so many great opportunities to take pictures for some of my friends and family. It is so much fun for me (and great practice)! Here are some of my favs:
Isn't she GORGEOUS!?!
Love this family!
How cute are they!?!?!
Cutest couple!!
Adorable little Sophie :)
While we are on the subject of favorite pictures, please observe below.
Meet Dolvett! I am now a Biggest Loser fan for life (he is one of the new trainers)! Isn't he dreamy!?! I assume this is a great segue into my next topic which is: Current Obsessions
OPI's Gone Gonzo (from the Muppet collection). This is such a fun color and I love the sparkles. Looks so good on toenails!
Pink Martini's "Joy to the World" album. It's a great holiday album and I love that it is a little bit different than the norm. If you haven't listened to any of their music I definitely recommend it. I just discovered them a few weeks ago and they are great!
I don't know about you, but when it gets cold all I want to do is be comfy and cozy. The first thing I do when I get home from work is put on something warm. I am totally obsessed with Victoria's Secret PINK collection of sweatshirts and sweats. They make me feel like less of a scrounge with the cute fun colors. I absolutely love them and could never have enough! Any Ugg type of boot to wear with these just make me that much more comfortable. Guys, I know how you feel about Uggs, you don't have to tell me. It's not going to make me stop wearing them ;)
I "stumbled upon" this video on Stumble Upon (www.stumbleupon.com). This is a great website that I recently got hooked to. You put in all of your interests and based on that it takes you to web pages that it thinks you will enjoy. I have found so many cool things (recipes, fashion tips, etc.). This video is AWESOME and every girl must watch it!
Last but not least of my obsessions, I am currently addicted to getting a Green Tea Lemonade and Cake Pop from Starbucks. It's the little things in life, and those little things couldn't make me happier :)
Here are a few more things I wanted to add on to the end of this blog, but don't really have a good way to tie them in. So here is the randomness:
Company Holiday Party (Casino Night). So much fun! We won a PS3 too :)
We have discovered that Barkley likes to wath TV. This is a problem....
My dad always does such a good job putting up Christmas lights!
We are so happy he put them up this year! Thanks Dad! :)
This is such a great time of year (besides being cold all of the time). There is nothing I love more than spending time with my loved ones. Happy Holidays everyone!
This last month has been so busy! I have been so excited because I have been given quite a few opportunities to take pictures for my family and friends. This is so great, because the only way I can learn is by practicing. Practice, practice, practice. I have learned a ton and there is still so much to learn. I wanted to share a preview of what I have been working on.
These pictures are from my cousin Trevor's wedding. Wedding pictures are really fun, but a lot of work. For all you professional photographers, I commend you for what you do.
Mr. and Mrs. Cook :)
She is beautiful!
Look at those studs!
These next two pictures I tried to experiment with Photoshop a little (Adam did this part for me since I have never used it before)
I was also fortunate enough to take Trevor and Shana's engagement pictures as well. Here are a few of my favorites:
Love this family so much!
I absolutely love this one! How sweet!?!
I switched back and forth between color and black and white a lot because I love both!
I have a few more photo shoots that I haven't posted pictures of yet. More to come soon! It is so much fun having a new hobby and being able to learn through the willingness of my friends and family.
A couple of things that I am slightly obsessed with right now...
1. Arizona Arnold Palmer Green Tea & Lemonade - This drink is absolutely delightful!!
2. Zelda Jean Legging in red, yes, I said RED! :) (from Express) - These are the cutest jeans ever! With black heels, black skinny belt... Love!
3. Urban Decay Lip Love Honey-Infused Lip Therapy - This lip gloss is not sticky at all, it moisturizes, and has a little hint of honey flavor (which smells so good). Love it! P.S. The colors are very light and don't go on as dark as they look.
