All Work and No Play

Hi All!

Ack! Hopefully I still have my readers since I've been neglecting my blog for about 6 months now. As I'm sure you all know, it's hard to always think of new and interesting things to keep you guys coming back, and on top of my new job plus the hundreds of other things I do, it makes it even that much more difficult.

Anyways, I'm thinking of starting back up. Hopefully you guys are still here because you are all the most amazing readers ever, and I will see you all soon! :D Haha!

Hope everyone is having the most amazing winter and happy holidays!

Tattoo Today

As a colorist, I've started to become more obsessed with color. I notice colors in a very different way now. Kind of like how photographers see light in a different way or how musicians hear music differently, it's the same thing. 

That being said, ever since I got my tattoo, I've been pretty much obsessed with the idea of getting a second and a third one. And it's funny because my first day at work, we had a party (no, it wasn't for me) and we played this game called "Tattoo Today" wherein you say a tattoo you want to get if you were to get one that day. 

Well, my obsession for color and tats landed me on this site, Tattly.com that I am now obsessed with. It seems superfluous and unnecessary, even a waste of money, but I want to buy EVERYTHING!
The one I want to get...and actually the one that brought me to the site in the first place.
They team up with amazing artists and designers and create super cool temporary tattoos that you can buy for about $5 for 2 with free shipping!!!

I Work With Color

I've been a bad blogger, but let me tell you why. Over the past months, my life took a turn for the worst and then for the best, the word crazy would be an understatement, and as corny as it may sound, it really has been a rollercoaster.

The biggest news so far is that I got a job at The Gymboree Corporation (if you guys don't know what that is, seriously, fashion isn't just for women) as a Colorist for the Crazy 8 brand (yes, it's under Gymboree as well) wherein I handle the colors for both Girl and Boy Undies, Kid Boy, Baby Boy, and their Newborn lines.
If you know me personally, you would know that I'm a workaholic, especially if I love my job. And I LOVE my new job. I am so blessed to have been able to get a job at a great company that takes care of its employees and wherein I get to do what I love.

If you're wondering what a Colorist is, it's literally someone who deals with color. The designers choose the colors, however, I'm in the Production Department making sure that the colors that the factories/vendors send us back match the standard colors we chose. In simple terms, quality control. And yes, I basically look at colors all day; different fabrics, clothes, prints, and sometimes even accessories (mostly just shoes since boys don't really have a lot of accessories).
It's been a busy month, but I think things should settle down soon as I'm getting used to how the flow is with my new job, and then soon I'll be able to blog more frequently again! Hope everyone is doing well!

Soneva Kiri

I love that the internet gives me the luxury to discover new things everyday, in cable internet speed. That being said, although this is a fashion blog, I still do enjoy looking and talking about the pretty things in life. 

Like Soneva Kiri.
A resort on Koh Kood–Thailand's largest yet most uninhabited islands. It's a 102-acre, eco-friendly and zero waste resort that houses 29 luxurious villas and private residences. Dining in a tree house, private villa pools (great interior decorating btw!), and that breath taking view, how can it get any better than this?
