Countdown to 30 // Birthday Wish List

I'm kicking off this almost birthday month with my annual birthday wish list! You all know how much I love making this list every year... I couldn't resist getting a jumpstart on it while doing some black Friday shopping today. Let's just say I was able to score some of these items... Finally got that perfect LBD I've had my eye on. We had the same dress at my work but it sold out so fast that I missed it. annnd drum roll please... I totally got those badass boots on sale yo! So if you're in the giving spirt this year, I still have my heart set on those beautiful lipstick shades, ruby woo and stone... That Kat V Don palette, Bumble and Bumble shampoo set, that dope patch, the Indoorsy sweatshirt.... I realllly want this (hint hint), the coolest jacket ever and those mugs, omg, I NEED those! um, and a lucite bar cart.. yes, please. I mean, I am turning 30.

Up Before The Sun

As cheesy as it sounds, I love watching the sunrise every morning from our new house. The view is amazing... obviously. These are just a few of my personal faves but seriously my camera roll is full of sunrises, I'm obsessed.

I'm Still Here

Holy shit, I can't believe it has been six months since my last blog post... Let's see I turned 29, the MR. and I 
moved into the 60's California ranch house of our dreams, I've been knee deep in vintage denim busting out custom 
cutoffs for the shop and working 40+ hour work weeks with the boutique. The MR. just finished recording the new album with Forget Your Friends that is set to launch late this Summer and he is starting production on their upcoming video! 
Let's just say 2015 has been pretty awesome so far! XO

A Few Things...

While in bed sick the last few days with this reoccurring pneumonia I found a few things that need to make their way into my life... Some of which I may or may not have purchased while under the influence of antibiotics and NyQuil.


Stuff

Sorry for the crickets around here but ya know how it goes. Let's see how fast I can update you... The MR. and I celebrated four years of marriage on September 25th and we started a few new projects with the label and the shop that we are excited to finalize! He also released a music video with his band, Forget Your Friends, for their single, Scream Queen, and they have some killer shows coming up! I went on a mini getaway to the lovely Madonna Inn. Dressed up as Snow White for Halloween and finally watched Maleficent. Well, I think that's it... lol... Keep up on Instagram, that's where its at yo.

White After Labor Day

You know what they say... You can't wear white after Labor Day. Well, good thing I only wear black! With that... I am SO ready for Fall! Vacation time is over and it's time to get ready for the Holidays... and by Holidays I mean what is only known as 'Retail Holiday Season' ... A six month block from September 1st to March 1st jammed pack with every major holiday. Also known as, see ya in March! lol. What can I say, I love it... I mean, you either work in the industry or you don't. I'm totally ready for the hectic schedule and little down time. The MR. and I take full advantage of any down time we have, we love getting sidetracked on the weekends... Staying an extra night at our favorite hotel, searching for vintage records and clothing, diner dining, and of course, me forcing a million couples selfies on him. le sigh. Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall!

Weekends

I live for the weekends! The MR. and I work crazy hours during the week and we definitely take our down time seriously. Lately, our weekends have been just as busy as our work weeks. The MR. has been in the studio with FYF recording their new single, Scream Queen, this song holds a very special place in my heart and the emotion behind it is so overwhelming... I can't even listen to it without crying. Production on the music video begins shortly and the band will be on the road every weekend... Come out to one of the shows and say Hi! We have some big news to announce on our record label, Oktoheart, this summer as well as some exciting new things coming to Hella Vintage!! We have been on the road listening, watching, finding new music, bands and scouring California for the best vintage treasures.... It's going to be a great Summer! XO

Here are a few snapshots from some of our weekends on the road... Bottomless mimosas on the beach with my mom for her birthday followed by miles of denim and taxidermy... Just the way I like it!

8 Years Later...

oh em gee! I can't believe it has been 8 years already... It feels just like yesterday that the MR. sent me a friend request on Myspace. That's right, we totally met on Myspace! It was May 31, 2006.... The  MR., who went by Ponyboy Curtis back then, sent me, who went by Jane Fonda, a message saying that he liked the song on my profile. I replied with 'that's it' and the rest is history! We dated long distance for over two years and I finally moved in with him shortly after that. We were married on September 25, 2010. I don't know how I got so lucky! XO
