Libra season ❤️

School has been CRAZY BUSY but I'm loving every second of it!! I'm actually meeting my Master Teacher for the first time in an hour and I'm so excited!! I start student teaching this upcoming Monday! Ahh. 

My professors have been packing in all of our assignments before we start student teaching, so I've basically just been doing project, after project, after project, after... well you get the picture. 

Luckily, study breaks in Disneyland ain't no thang with an annual pass and just a ten min drive... 

                  Ghost Galaxy is backkkkk 
It's maybe just a little too loud outside (when you're waiting in line and the ghost tries to "escape"), but besides that this ride is awesome, intense, and I swear faster than the regular space mountain version. 

Sweatshirt: Wildfox (Spencer got it for me at a sample sale and I don't see it on their website...but it's hooded and oh so soft)


We managed to catch the fireworks just in time too! They had just started so we just ducked under the rope and got a front row spot!



Halloween Time is my favorite time of year =) 

Sweatshirt: Still Wildfox 
Skirt: Zara in Rome, Italy
Boots: Brass Plum


Love this pumpkin tree. 


So that was... Sunday. These pictures are out of order, whoops. 

Before that! I was back in Long Beach studying away under the sun =) 
If I didn't enjoy writing lesson plans so much I wouldn't have been able to focus but it all worked out perfectly. 


Shades: Target? I got them for a themed party in college and could never give them up 


Saturdays study break included a walk tooooo SUSHI. Nom nom noms. 
Sushi on Fire is amazingly tasty, and conveniently located on 2nd street. Oh, and they give you free hot saki. Yeah. Thank goodness we can walk there. I love there Mr. and Mrs. Smith roll, the 911 roll, and ... I forgot the third one I really like... It'll hit me later. 

They do have a lot of fried sushi, which some people like but I don't really get it. Sushi is sushi because it's not cooked... but whatever. Spencer got the Halloween roll for me because of the name but I ended up not liking it because its all tempura fish in the middle. Oh well it was visually appealing =) 


Ok now for pictures from TODAY. Yes actually from today. 

My birthday is on Saturday!!! WOOO HOOO
My girl Clare sent me presents early =) Temporary tattoos and HAIR CHALK!!! After I meet my master teacher I'm going to have unicorn hair ALL WEEKEND. I'm so excited, thank you so much Clare!!! 



I also got my latest Ebay steal: A new wildfox tank that matches Spencer's tattoo =p 

AND I AM SO EXCITED BECAUSE TOMORROW AFTER CLASS I'M GOING TO MY FIRST WILDFOX SAMPLE SALE EVER. I'll be getting there towards the end so I know it will be totally picked over already but OMG am I excited just to BE IN THE WAREHOUSE. 



Videos, pictures and more will be up tomorrow! 

xoxo, 
a very excited and happy Kk

Friday the 13th double date

It's halloween time in Disneyland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Last Friday spencer and I headed over to Disneyland on Friday the 13th to celebrate the start of Halloween festivities in Disneyland :) 

I wore a backless t from Victoria's Secret pink and grey jean leggings from brass plum.

                   What's up Jake?

Our first ride is my least favorite ride in the entire park. Seriously. I absolutely do not like elevators, and my fear started from the movie that this ride is based off of. Spencer had never been on it though so... I went... I survived... And I...

Got drinks at my favorite bar in the park right after :)

We may have gotten another dumbo...

Our friends met up with us later on to make it a double date. We got Mexican food in downtown Disney before heading back to the park.

Since it was Friday the 13th, 2013 and the park was staying open until the 13th hour (1am... Which really 13:00 is 1pm but whatever Disney) we planned on getting into the haunted mansion exactly at one o'clock....

It. Was. Awesome. They've redone the opening presentation and added a lot of 3d effects throughout the mansion! And the gingerbread house is to die for this year. It's a huge advent calendar house and Im definitely going during the countdown to Christmas to see what comes out. 

Below are some romantic pictures of us (awwwww). I'm wearing my Wildfox skeleton fleece to keep with the Halloween theme ;)   

On our way out we all got stuck after this crazy decided to drive into a fire hydrant:

The next day spencer and I went to Roe in long beach for some yummy oysters and spicy poke ❤❤❤❤


So much fish to eat nom nom nom. 

I also wanted to share with you guys a cool way to help people around the world (for free!!). Johnson and Johnson is doing a program called "donate a photo". Download the app "donate a photo". Next, choose from A list of charities to donate to and then take a picture! For every picture you "donate", Johnson and Johnson will donate one dollar towards that charity of your choice, at no cost to you! 

Then you can share them on your twitter or Facebook etc if you want to encourage your friends to do the same! 

Here's the video:



And here's one of mine from last Friday (photo cred goes to spencer):

Ciao ciao,

Roadtrips! Disneyland, Sacramento, and Santa Cruz!

Back to LA again! My last road trip down was the first week of June. I went down for school related stuff but of course found myself in Disneyland... 
Here's my comfy lonesome road trip outfit =) 
Shirt: Wildfox Couture
Shorts and Boots: Brass Plum

The gang in Disneyland! I swapped Wildfox tees to pretend I was a mermaid while running around my favorite playground. Thank goodness they started selling Margaritas in California Adventure!


OH NO! Mermaid down!

Shades: Ray Bans

 That next week I went up to Sacramento for a girls night with one of my favorite brides! I'm her MOH and we spent the night eating AMAZING Sushi at Tokyo Fro's (get the Godzilla roll!!).


Lace Top: Chole K 
Cami: Brass Plum
Pants: GAP
Boots: Brass Plum


We may have gotten some drunken munchies at In-N-Out as well, Chandon and Crystal head for girls night is always the best choice. 


Last Weekend the boy came up to Nor Cal, just in time to go to my friends new beach house in Santa Cruz. Huzzah! It started out being just 5 people and quickly turned into about 12 haha way more fun. We all started out with Saki Bombs and more sushi! (Surprise) 

GIVE ME FISH!!!! 

Anyways... sushi at Akiras with many a saki bomb, followed with beers and bon fires on the beach. The Fiesta raged on, so breakfast burritos were definitely in order in the morning. Santa Cruz is a meca for amazing food (I wonder why...) and if you're looking for an amazing breakfast burrito go to Chill Out! They also have this insanely awesome quesadilla with spinach and mushrooms and mmmmmm it was heaven. Then I would also highly recommend getting your favorite red wine and some Pleasure Pizza. 

Yeah, that weekend was mainly all about food. 

And dranks, and tanning, and walks on the beach in hippie outfits. 


Sweatshirt: Wildfox Couture
Dress: Forever 21

Where will I go next?? Actually... I'm already here ... and yes I've already gotten some sushi (and Maui Babe). I'm in Hawaii Y'all!!! Next post will be all about it!

Adios! Kk

Nor Cal to So Cal Road Trips

My second to last road trip down to LA was a fun one with my friend Natasha. I was going down for a Chardonnay run with my cousin in Santa Barbara then to visit people in Long Beach (and helplessly end up in Disneyland, as usual). 

Instead of my solo drive down the 5, I picked up Tash and headed down the 101. We made a lot (a lot, a lot) of stops along the way! One of which was the Madonna Inn, a personal favorite =) (THEME! CRAZY THEMES!!)


We had the greatest Cesar Salad before splitting a slice of carrot cake (and had a million cups of coffee in between). The goblets at the table (see above) were so amazingly awesome that we each got one... and then got another for our friend that was letting us crash with her. 

Shades: Ray Bans


Here is the women's restroom in the restaurant. The mens has a waterfall for a urinal!

Happy New Year!

First of all my ultimate, favorite birthday present (second only to the trip to Palm Springs! Thanks love) is my PERFECTLY FUZZY, SOFT, WARM, PERFECT (Faux Fur) 
Mink jacket by Dale Dressin.
 

Ahhhhhhhhhhh I love it so so so so so MUCH. 

Obviously, I couldn't take it with me to Palm Springs (hellllllo heat) and since my bday is in September and I live in California... It doesn't really get cold here until January. CUE NEW YEARS SKI ADVENTURE!


I flew down to LA in the wee hours of the night and my adventure buddy and I decided to haul ass to the mountains immediately to meet up with our gang. So we got into Mammoth around 4am? The snowflakes were perfect on our windshield I couldn't resist taking a few pictures. 

Anyways, I was taking some classes but everyone else was going boarding, so basically I did as much HW as I could each day in the ski lodge then just met up with everyone at the bar or restaurant as they came and went from their runs. Most of my skiing gear is at my cabin, so I made do with some random items and borrowed ski shoes (for a male 7 times my size). Hilarity ensued. 

Jacket: Dale Dressin Shirt: GAP Scarf: LA Kings! Boots: unknown and 7 sizes too big


Heres one shot of the lodge and mountain.


Zack back in his happy place.


During the holidays, I usually splurdge on my favorite make up brand: Too Faced. Luckily they also have amazing deals and steals around this time of year ;) Sephora as well. 

Here are some of the shots from the night! 


Head band above is from nordstroms and below is J. Crew


All make up is Too Faced! I don't know if people want to know about the specific colors I can put them up if your interested. 

Happy Birthday Spencer!! 
Dress: Brass Plum, Shirt: Lily White



I was super cute in the cabin but my mini dress was no match for the snow (even with my super cute bow tights! Thanks mom!). So I threw back on my GAP pants, Kings scarf, and go to striped top for the bars and midnight kissin'!

The road trip back was an adventure as always. Spencer and I stopped at Mojave Red which has amazing brews and the people there are so friendly and amazing. We also stopped at some random desert stops along the way, making the drive longer as hoped for =) 




Cheers, 
Kk
