Piel Canela



I am loving this song so much right now!

Black and White

I love the simplicity of this. She looks like a chic schoolgirl in the most un-tarty kind of way. I love the look of a personal uniform.

south of the border, down mexico way...

I am so excited to be heading to Rosarito for a few days. I haven't been there in years and I literally cannot wait. I've been packing all night, since I am both overly neurotic and indecisive. When I leave town, even if just for a day I find myself packing a ton of clothing options and beauty products...it's nuts. However, I've been playing some pretty snazzy music to keep myself company (and a vodka soda helps as well..), so I figured I'd share my playlist with you:

Ornette Coleman-Tomorrow is the Question
Sonny Rollins-Saxophone Colossus
Grand Ole Party-Humanimals
Sigur Ros
Simple, easy and fun. Just put it on shuffle.

Always Re-apply.

We've all done it.She just did it way better.

Clown Cake!!

A little dose of happy for you. I love clowns! I know that makes me a freak, but I just don't see what's so scary about them...even the sad ones look happy.

Hello,Cruel World....

It's a cruel cruel world that these babies are not in my closet. I wish I didn't know they existed, because now I'm infatuated. I would literally cry from joy if I owned these. So, if you know anyone who wants to buy them for me...

Vegan 4th of July Recipe

Red, White, and Blue Fruit Terrine

2 Cups grape-peach juice (or juice of choice)
1 1/2 tsp. agar powder
2 tbsp. agave nectar (optional--use only if your fruit is not very sweet)
10 ounces strawberries
2 bananas
1 1/2 cups blueberries

-Put one cup of the juice in a saucepan, and sprinkle the agar over it and allow it to soften for a few minutes.

-Then, heat on medium-high, stirring, until the agar is completely dissolved and the juice begins to boil in the remaining juice and the agave (optional) and remove from heat.

-Allow the agar mixture to cool slightly while you prepare the fruit. Be sure to stir the juice every minute or so.

-Remove the stems from the strawberries and slice them lengthwise. Place them on the bottom of a loaf pan, prettiest sides down.

-Slice the bananas and place them on top of the strawberries. Put the blueberries in an even layer on top of the bananas.

-Gently pour the juice mixture evenly over the berries. It will start to jell immediately, so work from side to side to make sure it's distributed evenly.

-Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled and jelled.

-Invert over a platter to serve (you may need to lower the pan into a large bowl of hot water to loosen the edges and run a knife along the inside of the mold.)

Belle of the ball?

And speaking of hair, I'm thinking of going a little shorter. My main reasoning is because I absolutely love the look of Camila Belle's classy bob. I think it would be very easy to look polished with a hairstyle like that.So...we'll see...

Oh You Pretty Thing


I have to figure out how to do this to my hair. It looks just so timeless and avant garde at the same time. I think it helps that the model is the insanely beautiful late great Gia Carangi. She could make a shower cap look sexy!

A View From the Top.

The best thing in the world, is going to a party with a view. Everything else is just icing on the cake.

Moonwalker

A lot has been said about Michael Jackson and his legacy this past week, but I think his own words say it best. Also, I love this part of "Moonwalker."
"My goal in life is to give to the world what I was lucky to receive: the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance."- Michael Jackson

"If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with."- Michael Jackson
