Oh My God

I have no words to explain how busy I have been.
I actually thought this semester was going to be a breeze ... kind of like a glitch in my future memory.
But then I decided I wanted to be part of the Committee of the Students of Tamaulipas (my home state) Association. And it all went downhill haha
Oh well, at least I've gotten some cute shoes these past weeks... So yay for that!

Finally, my very own pair of Zoe's!!!

I got these bad boys (er... girls?) at Zara. They were over 50% on sale and I couldn't help myself. I loved them since the first time I saw them, but thought were too expensive.

Oh, and a little cheer-you up for those of you who are in the cold areas ....

that's right, while you're freezing your little asses off, I'm sweating mine off.
That's 40 degrees CELSIUS... which roughly is 100 F.

So be happy you can still go out without wanting to peel your clothes off!

Para el Jueves

So, yesterday I told ya'll about a terrible experience ( the one involving a man and a pair of (f)UGGs)... I'm sure you were as traumatized as I was.
However, I also mentioned that I FINALLY wore that sheer Anne Klein blouse that I bought way back in November. It had been collecting dust (literally, yuck), so I decided to take it out of that miserable place that is otherwise known as My Closet. Yay!
Bueno, pues ayer les conté una horrible experiencia que tuve (aquella que tenía algo que ver con un hombre y un par de botas UGGs)... estoy segura que ustedes se traumaron tanto como yo.
Sin embargo, también mencioné que POR FIN usé la blusa transparente de Anne Klein que compré este noviembre pasado. Ya estaba acumulando polvo (literalmente, igh), asi que decidi sacarla de ese miserable lugar que también se conoce como Mi Clóset. Yay!

PS. I took a horrible fall all the way down to the floor (with the chair) trying to get close ups of the booties ... that's why those photos of the shoes are so shitty, I gave up after the fall.
PD. Me caí horrible y hasta al suelo (con todo y silla) cuando estaba intentando tomar unos close ups de los botines ... por eso es que las fotos de los zapatos están tan ojetes, me di por vencida después de la caída.

PPS. The boyfriend made me a twitter account ... I'm still getting the hang of it, though.
PPD. Mi novio me hizo una cuenta de twitter ... aunque todavía estoy intentando entenderla.

Para el Día de Hoy (Lazy Version)

Sometimes, this whole get-up-put-on-the-self-timer-pose-quickly-and-pray-that-you-get-at-least-one-good-shot ordeal becomes a bit too much, which is the main reason as to why I rarely update with personal outfits ... and today was going to be no different, but then I decided to get some photos with the webcam just because I didn't want to do anymore homework. Then I figured that I could upload those! (School makes me smart :) ) So, here's a couple of shitty photos of my outfit for the day .. woooo!

Traduccion:
A veces, eso de parate-pon-el-timer-haz-una-pose-super-rapido-y-reza-que-salga-al-menos-una-foto-buena se me hace que es demasiado, y es la mera mera razon de porque es raro que haga updates con mis outfits ... y hoy no fue nada diferente, pero luego decidi mensear con la webcam  porque me canse de hacer tarea. Ya despues me di cuenta que podia subir esas fotos! (La escuela me hace una persona sumamente inteligente :) ) Asi que aqui les dejo algunas fotos super chafas de mi outfit del dia .. wuuuu!

(that's a scar on my finger, btw... the finger with the birthmark is on the other hand)

Para el Día de Ayer

Winter is supposed to be cold!
78F weather is just uncalled for ... I really had been looking forward to winter so I could finally bust out my coats and jackets and the whole shebang.
Blah. Looks like I'll be waiting another couple of weeks for it to get cold (if it even gets cold).

Traducción:
El invierno debería ser frío!
Días de 26C son inaceptables ... En verdad estaba ansiosa por que llegara el invierno para por fin poder sacar mis chamarras y abrigos y todo eso.
Ni modo. Al parecer tendré que esperar unas semanas mas para que llegue el frío (si es que llega).

2011, Here I Am

First off, I hope ya'll had a great New Year's Eve ... I wasn't allowed to go out because there were a couple of shootings and blockages, but oh well. I'm pretty sure that reading about the partying most of you did will be more than enough for me :P
Second, I hope ya'll have a 2011 that is even better than this past 2010.
Now, a moment of silence, please, for the now deceased 2010.
Lastly, I am sorry about the lack of outift post ... my camera is still not repaired and after you see this webcam shot, you'll beg me not to post any until I get my camera fixed.

Oh ... and btw, 2011, you better be on the lookout. I'm going to own you this year.

(too lazy to translate, sorry!)

Para el Sábado

The boyfriend has been in Cupertino, California since the 10th of this month ... and at last, he's supposed to be getting here tomorrow!!
Words cannot explain how much I have missed him these past two weeks, but finally I get to be with him, if only for a couple of hours.
Good thing is that we don't have school tomorrow anymore ... that's right, classes are OVER. Now, all we have to do is worry about finals. May God have mercy on me and my procrastination.
I leave you with a couple of photos of what I wore Saturday night to have dinner with some of my best friends. 

Traducción:


El novio ha estado en Cupertino, California desde el 10 de este mes ... y por fin, se supone que este Viernes regresa!!
No hay palabras para explicar cuanto lo he extrañado estas últimas dos semanas, pero pues por fin hoy podré estar con él, aunque sea por un par de horas.
Lo bueno es que mañana no tenemos clases ... así es, ya terminamos este semestre. Ahora lo único por lo que nos tenemos que preocupar son los finales. Que Dios se apiade de mi y mis pocas ganas de trabajar.
Les dejo unas fotos de lo que usé el Sábado por la noche para salir a cenar con mis mejores amigos.

Para el Día de Hoy

You know what really irks me? People who wear sandals when it is raining.
I know, I know, "let them be", but I just cannot stand it.
I on the other hand, dress as autumnal as possible haha
What is a pet peeve of yours?

Traducción:

Saben que me choca? Personas que salen en "chanclas" cuando esta lloviendo.
Yo sé, yo sé, "déjenlos ser", pero no lo puedo aguantar!
Yo por mientras, me visto lo mas otoñal posible jaja
Qué les molesta a ustedes?

This little guy jumped out at me while I was getting the photos, I screamed like a little girl would have / Este animalito brinco hacia mi mientras que tomaba las fotos, grité como una niña chiquita

Is It Autumn Yet?

I love the F/W season.
The heat is finally gone. The colors that prevail in nature are divine. And the clothes are more than beautiful.
I just want to bust out my coats already ... and of course, buy more :P

Traducción:
Me encanta la temporada Otoño - Invierno.
El calor desaparece (aunque sea un poco). Los colores a nuestros alrededores son divinos. Y claro, la ropa es más que hermosa.
Yo ya nada más quiero sacar mis abrigos ... y claro, comprar más :P

Back home, "winter" is a term used only for propriety. In fact, during "winter" we still reach highs of 25 Celsius (but we have hit lows of 0 C ... a long, long time ago, but still). So a short sleeved coat, like this one, is actually perfect for our weather / De donde yo soy, el término "invierno" es usado como una formalidad. En realidad, en nuestro "invierno" aún alcanzamos temperaturas de 25 grados (aunque sí hemos llegado a los 0 grados ... hace mucho, mucho tiempo, pero como quiera). Así que un abrigo de mangas cortas, como este, es en realidad perfecto para nuestro clima.

 I've worn this dusty pink leather jacket twice ... it is way too big on me, but I can't bear to part with it / He usado esta chamarra de piel en color rosa viejo dos veces ... está demasiado grande para mí, pero no puedo simplemente deshacerme de ella.

This beauty came home with me for 3 USD, after I found it under a pile of clothes at a flea market / Esta belleza se convirtió en parte de mi clóset por 3 dólares, después de encontrarla bajo un montón de ropa en un flea market 

I got this pig suede jacket from Lord & Taylor at the same flea market as the jacket above ... I got real lucky that day / Compré esta chamarra de pig suede de la tienda Lord & Taylor en el mismo flea market que la chamarra de arriba ... andaba súper suertuda ese día.

 

You've seen this one before, here and here / Esta ya la han visto antes, aquí y aquí

Para el Día de Hoy

I love how many people (who do not know me) hate me because of the way I dress.
It's just so funny.

Traducción:
Me encanta como le caigo mal a tanta gente (que no me conoce) simplemente por como me visto.
Es demasiado divertido.

 I know you can't see a thing here, but I liked the photo a lot.
Yo sé que no se puede ver nada aquí, pero me gustó mucho la foto.

 Isn't this print just gorgeous? / A poco no está hermosa la tela?

PS. To everyone who's mentioned something about my chair, thank you! My parents bought them (there's two) before I was born and now they're all mine! By the way, they've been reupholstered tons of times and I'm thinking of doing it again...

PD. A todos los que han dicho algo sobre mi silla, gracias! Mis papás las compraron (son dos) antes de que yo comprara y ahora son todas mías! Aunque claro que han sido retapizadas varias veces y estoy pensando en hacerlo otra vez ...
