I know this is really late, and that I've been really bad at blogging lately, but here's the photos from Fresno State's Fashion INC. show. This was my second year walking for Fashion INC.'s annual show, and I must say, I had just as much if not more fun than I did the first year I did it. Not only did I walk this time, but I also ended up getting called in help with hair as well. I guess it sometimes comes in handy being a licensed cosmetologist. Really impressed with the photographers this year, and was also stoked that I was able to get my makeup done by my friend Emily. Good times for sure.

Here's this year's video. Catch me getting down on hair here.

For those of you still with me, I appreciate you. I'll try to make more regular appearances here again.

Cropped Angles

Sandals; Urban Outfitters | Crop top; The Laundry Room | Shorts; DIY | Ring; Vanessa Mooney

Angles are deceiving. I'm not as tall as I look here (sometimes I wish I was, haha). But, this gray crop and the black lipstick have become my new favorite combo. I think I need to invest in some more gray shirts now. Also, I'm pretty stoked with how long my hair is getting. This is the longest it's been in years!! Let's see how much longer I can keep up with it before it becomes too much for me, haha.

See ya!

Ultima

So, I made my music video debut a couple months ago (only a couple seconds, I know, but still!). Thanks to Joe Calixto and State Faults for allowing me to be a part of this. P.S. - That garage with the basketball hoop above it? Definitely my house. 

Check out State Faults' video for "Ultima" below!

I apologize for the lull in blogging, life has been pretty busy with school and work. I took a couple summer classes, which were pretty intense but fun! I'm so proud of myself, I got a 4.0 GPA for my summer semester. It's such a nice feeling, considering this was my first semester back in college after five years. Ya girl's still got it. These photos have to have been from at least a month ago now. I miss Megan. She's currently living in Arizona, and a long distance friendship with your best friend is kind of hard. 

As you can probably tell, I can't get enough of Bad Vibes and their rad shorts. I have three pairs now, these ones are the Champagne Supernova color way. So gorgeous, and the most comfortable. And yeah, literally the only makeup I'm wearing in these photos is mascara. A bit different, eh?

How are things with all of you?

Triple Threat

Dress; Forever 21 | Boots; Kohl's

About a month ago now, I was reunited with my friend Mariaya, who moved back to Washington about a year ago. It was so good to see her again! While she was here, she took these photos of me and the rest of the triple threat... Her, Megan, and myself. I miss you Mariaya.

So life has gotten super busy. I went back to college. Yes, during summer. I'm taking two summer classes, so with those, homework, studying, and my job at the zoo on the weekends, I've been a pretty busy lady. I must say though, it feels good to be going back to school, especially now that I know what I want to do; Marine biology.

Hope you all have been well!

Summer Summer

Summer is definitely here in California. Today is the first day of June. Looks like I'll be spending most of my summer working, and taking a few classes. Yeah, I've decided to finally go back to college after five years. This should be interesting.

I have been after some Bad Vibes shorts for probably about a year now (or whenever it is they first released them). I finally bought myself a pair, and I am in love (I may or may not have bought two more pairs after receiving these ones and discovering just how perfect they are)! Madeline and Brit, you girls are geniuses for these. 

The weather here in California has been so bipolar... Last week it rained, this week it's in the 90's, and next week it's supposed to drop back down to the 70's. Make up ya mind!

Anyway, hope you all are having a grand week!
