happy friday + giveaway winners!

Well, I couldn't be happier that it's finally the weekend. Was it just me or did this week last longer than usual? Plans for the three-day weekend include: sushi tonight, possibly going to San Diego to see this one, contesting a parking ticket that was undeserved, starting a crafting project, possibly getting one of these bad boys, watching the Globes, and seeing It's Complicated {better late than never!} What are your plans?

Also I know all of you are very aware of the tragedy in Haiti. It's a devastating situation and while prayers are the most important, money does help a great deal. You can donate here to assist Unicef's Emergency Response or text "HAITI" to "90999" and $10 will go to the Red Cross. A little bit goes a long way! {Over $4 million has already been raised through texting!}

Alright and without further ado..the two winners of my Bare Escentuals giveaway! They are :

Congrats you two! Email me your info and I'll get the eye shadows out by Monday! I loved reading all the responses!

Have a great weekend everyone!

spooky scary..part two

So without further ado, the Halloween pictures are here {pumpkins included}. I went as Fran Fine aka The Nanny and Matthew went as my Mr. Sheffield. It was a pretty easy {and fun} costume: I wore bright tights, sequin dress, fur jacket, big hair, and I even drew on the widow's peak. Oh and who could forget the laugh! I loved Matthew's white streak in his hair... I think he liked it too! We found a legitimate photobooth in Echo Park, no counter just blinking lights and flashes--sulfur smell included. It was so exciting because we found it randomly and it's the first we've taken in LA together! Loved hanging out with this boy on Halloween. No matter what we do we always have so much fun. I love him a lot!

 

{I drew both but carved the one on the left..I think I won!}

Hope everyone's week is going great! Isn't everyone loving the extra hour of sleep?! Matthew and I are going to see Matt & Kim, The Dandy Warhols and Silversun Pickups tonight. I'm pretty excited!

One Windy Day

Here's the other funny photobooth strip Matthew and I took last weekend in SD. It's a little silly and unplanned but I still like it. Although it did give me some strange eye makeup. Normally we have to plan the shots all out or else it's just me spazzing and being like, "Wait what are we doing again??" FLASH and then Repeat. {See I need a plan for more than just my career}

The wind in LA yesterday was absolutely insane. I left work and the sky was gray and dark. There was dirt in the air and tree branches all over the road. It was almost like out of a scary movie. And then I go to my car and it was filthy on the inside because I cracked the windows in the morning {expecting a hot day}. Sigh what can you do?

Hanna and I had a lovely dinner last night and catched up about the shenanigans at her birthday party. We shared our favorite salad (Factory Chopped minus bacon and chicken) and sat there for about two hours. I don't think the waitress was too happy but it was a slow night down at the good ol' Cheesecake Factory. I miss having girl time now that I'm not in college! It's just different not seing your besties every day. But it makes nights and dinners like these so worth it!

Can't believe I haven't updated since Thursday! I had such a busy {and fun} weekend. Friday I took the day off and although I wanted to sleep in I couldn't! I hate when that happens! So, I ended up working out. . something I haven't done in months. I also spent some quality time with my Dad and packed for San Diego. Yes, I spent time packing for a less-than-48-hour trip! Don't judge me!

Matthew and I have a little tradition that every time we go to San Diego we go to Horton {Hears a Who} Plaza and take a picture in the photobooth. I think we've only missed going once. This one is perhaps my favorite. {Matthew is just so silly and cute} I'll post the other one we took later this week. Matthew pretends to be a vampire in one shot! I hope everyone had an AMAZING weekend and is looking forward to a spooky week! 

{Changing my mind on my Halloween costume so, as usual, I'm coming up with one the week of!}
