your perfect jeans!

Huhllo, girlies! Sorry for the long wait, but I've been trying to figure out how to get pictures from my camera onto YFF... No such luck. Ah well! I'll keep on trying. Anywho, here are some helpful tips on finding your perfect pair of jeans!

petite girlies- finding darkwash straight-leg jeans is a MUST for you shorter girls, because not only does it balance everything out, but the dark color make your legs look thinner and miles long. EXTRA: high-waist jeans give the illusion of long legs. TRY- 1) Gap Jeans for $64.50 but currently on sale for $39.99!! a steal! http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=15732&pid=600165

tall girlies- being taller, it's easier for you to pull off billowy, hippie-like jeans and super-destroyed styles. cropped jeans are also a great look on you. TRY- 2) 7 For All Mankind for $198 http://www.7forallmankind.com/Josefina_in_Vintage_Cali/pd/c/43/np/43/p/2422.html

small booty girlies- wearing light washes make your rear look a bit more full, compared to dark washes. flap pockets and rhinestones on back pockets give your bottom some shape. TRY- 3) Ralph Lauren Blue Label for $798 http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3460079&cp=1760782.1988976&view=all&ab=viewall&parentPage=family

big booty girlies- darkwashes make the legs appear leaner. don't go for skinny jeans, because they tend to embrace figure. wide legs are the best bet. TRY- 4) DKNY for $48 http://www.dkny.com/nshop/product.php?view=detail&productid=DY-KCMU5057&startColor=430&page=viewall&section=womens&category=apparel&subcategory=jeans&groupName=DKNYJeansWjeansALL

cameras and shopping for an amazing easter outfit!!

Yay!! I finally got that digital camera that I have been wanting for-eva. The picture of that black camera over there is just like mine, except mine is in pink. I had a sleepover with my friends on Saturday and we took tons of useless -but hilarious- videos of ourselves. This camera is great, and I would recommend it to anyone. It's easy to use and take great pics! For more info go to: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8696244&type=product&id=1198888712347

I also went shopping for a fabulous outfit to wear on Easter. My family is one of which gets fairly dressed up for holidays. There's a really tiny picture up top of the Juicy Couture jacket that I'll be wearing. But since you can barely see it, you can go to this link to veiw a larger image: http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2983896/0~2379292~2379293~6008501~6008565?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=6008565&P=1 I actually got mine at the Juicy Couture outlet for only $130! It was originally something like $350! Such a steal. I also bought this adorable Ralph Lauren black mini skirt with a tiny white floral on it. It has a kind of flowy look to it, and it has tiers. It must be from a couple of seasons ago, because it's not on the website (I also got it at an outlet store). It's adorable though. Once I figure out how to upload images onto my blog I'll post a picture of it! I think I'm going to wear it with my black cami, crisp white button down shirt, navy blue tights, and maybe brown suede wedges. I'm debating whether I should wear it with black ballet flats instead... We'll see! I'll definetly be wearing my mom's 80s vintage Carolee necklace. :)

my weekend :)

Heyy girlies. Yesterday for my mom's birthday we went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic. It was uber cute, but it didn't have much to do with the books at all. It was absolutely insane the way they dressed Becky. It was a bit too much, if you ask me. Nevertheless, Isla Fisher was hilarious. You should've seen her slap that Finnish man silly. :)

I also bought the cutest jeans ever. It took me two hours to find these two pairs of jeans, but whatever. I've always had a hard time finding jeans in my size. I looked through Aerie, Express, Justice, Forever 21, H&M, Macy*s, Aeropostale, Hollister, and Old Navy. I must have tried on over 40 pairs of jeans. Finally, I found these two amazing pairs at Gap. The pictures of them are at the top of this blog, but you can get a closer look at: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=6952&pid=505763 (for the first pair) and http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=6952&pid=579681 (for the second pair).

marry me, it's valentines day!

Happy Valentines Day everyone! I hope you got so many roses, there's no more room left in your vase. And that you've eaten so much chocolate, you gained five pounds. :)

Speaking of love and pretty things, this is one of my favorites from the Vera Wang Fall 2009 bridal collection. Yeah, I'm not planning on getting married anytime soon, but every girl daydreams about the perfect dress! And every stylish girl dreams of a Vera Wang dress. I think this one is just perfect, because it's just so colorful and fun. I think colorful wedding dress are really modern. It's new and fresh, and something different than the traditional white.

Speaking of wedding dresses, I'm hopefully going to see Bride Wars tomorrow, but we'll see. I might get forced into Mall Cop instead. Ugh. Anywho, I hear Vera Wang made all of the wedding dresses, so they must be pretty.

THE BEST AND WORST OF THE GRAMMYS! (3)

It's about time someone got it right! Carrie Underwood, you're my hero. Your dress is absolutely adorable, and the fit is just superb. You look uber tan, and the hair is perfectly young. The make-up is just the right amount. Your outfit is simple, yet chic. Congrats! You have my seal of approval, dahling.

THE BEST AND WORST OF THE GRAMMYS! (2)

Oh, Duffy! Her dress was just adorable, and she seemed so happy to be at the awards. But the make-up just wasn't working for her. I mean, what the hell? She looks like a grandmother! She piled way too much of the wrong stuff on. I think it's great that she's staying "modest" and doing her own hair and make-up, but she should really consider getting a professional to do her make-up. You should really consider getting a professional to do your make-up Duffy!! They can work wonders on the face. Your hair is cute, I guess.
