Hello Darlings,
♥ My Birthday Celebration!!!!
♥Road Trip to Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam!
As for the outfit, I settled for a loose long sleeve top, mainly so that my shoulders wouldn't burn. Denim shorts and my oxfords... simple and easy! No fuss! I also chose to tie my hair back, it is impossible to have your hair looking great in such an environment without fixing it every hour or so and who needs that on a road trip. So for me it was a pony with a bow headband!
I am wearing:Wilfred top; Abercrombie&Fitch Shorts; Candela Tokyo Oxfords;Ray Ban Wayfarers; H&M Bow Headband.
The trip was perfect! I couldn't have asked for more...well, driving back as the sun was setting over the desert was a cherry on top of a perfect day!
More pictures are coming up... I hardly had the time to sit back and enjoy an espresso! I did unpack my luggage which was rummaged through by United States Transportation Security Administration. Apparently my hair straightener and curler were suspicious :P (according to the letter found in my luggage). The locks were cut off and everything was a mess including my make-up kit... Who could have thought shoes and beauty supplies are a security threat? Did you hear that Chanel, Michael Kors and Conair... your products are dangerous! HAHAHAHA.... I am just kidding! I am all for being safe!!!
My university lectures start tomorrow and I am still tired and exhausted!!!
P.S. Darlings, bare with me...I promise that I will do my best to reply to all of the comments and e-mails as soon as I can!!! Pretty Thank You!!!
Vegas was AMAZING... So much to do, so much to see... it was actually overwhelming and deciding what to wear every day and night was even more difficult. Overall, I had the time of my life while trying to stay cool and relaxed. I managed to avoid gambling, since I am not a firm supporter, neither is Andrew (luckily)!!!
Andrew and I stayed at the charming Paris Hotel and were very pleased with it...very beautiful and unique!!!
My birthday consisted of a romantic dinner at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, which has a beautiful view overlooking the Bellagio fountains, followed by dancing at VooDoo Lounge and XS nightclub (thanks to those who recommend it, it was perfect!!!)
I settled for a simple outfit that made me feel like a ballerina, nothing too over exposing but just perfect for me!!!
I am wearing: Wilfred nude bustier tee; Free People Ribbon Skirt;Be&D Antonia Pumps; Coach Wristlet; Diamond Studs, A.V.Max Cuff.
I did switch the shoes, since I was starting to feel pain wearing my Be&D patent leather shoes ( I find patent leather shoes always less comfortable) and settled for my new Perdo Gardia's.
♥Vegas Exploring!
On the first day that we arrived, it was all about exploring and familiarizing ourselves with the area and the shopping scene. We also had a chance to check out "Warhol and friends" exhibit at the Bellagio and although it was small the pieces were well selected to represent his period.
In terms of shopping, I mostly stayed away except stopping by the Chanel store to pick up some make up and to buy myself a floppy hat at some random hat store (I'll show it in the second part of my Vegas posts).
As for the outfit, I stayed comfortable with a classic black and white combination... I mostly stayed away from looking too casual.
I am wearing: Susana Monaco Top; Talula Shorts; Bloch Patent Leather Flats; Chanel Sunglasses; Gustto Cokera Purse; A.V. Max Cuff; Diamond Studs.
My favorite part of the Las Vegas trip was the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam.... It is one of those life long memories that are always a joy to look back on :)
Andrew and I rented a highlander and ventured out on a 5 hour drive down the deserts of Nevada and Arizona... the drive was so beautiful. I've never enjoyed being in a car as much as this, it was breathtaking. It even rained in the desert which was probably one of the coolest experiences ever!
If I could recommend one thing to do - this would be it, or travel to the Grand Canyon as a separate vacation... which I am hoping to do sometime ( go hiking, camping and rock climbing in the canyon)!
I wish you all a beautiful day!!!
With Love...
Marta

Hello Darlings, Today was an especially exciting day since I booked my LAS VEGAS 21st Birthday celebration (yup, I turn 21 September 1st)..... soooooooooo EXCITED!!! This is an early b-day gift from my parents and I can't wait to go on September 2. Honestly, I am still jumping around !!!!
If you darlings have any suggestions as what to see, where to go, shop, eat and of course where to party?
I would really appreciate it!!!
Anyways, moving on from my over-excitement to today's outfit which I wore for dinner with one of my closest friends. Simple but on a dressy side. I love how the crystal accents matched the color of my shoes :) Yes... I know, I am a detail-freak! Plus, I thought that hot pink was an ideal color for a girls night out :P
To my surprise, I've been wearing American Apparel disco pants a lot this summer. I never expected this, but I really do love how they make every outfit that much more fun! OMG.... could this be me starting to slowly warm up to leggings after so many years refusing to even look at them... well, except for my ballet classes. Maybe... but not quite there yet and not sure if I will ever be!
I am wearing:
Whitley Silk Top
Luc Kieffer Barbered Wire Ring;
A.V. Max Cuff
Also, I've been working on a fun "project" for this blog... and I can't wait to reveal it any day now. Just few touch ups and it is almost ready!!!!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
