Alice's Summer Thing

Last June 26, I was in San Francisco with Steven, Harris and Pam at the Golden Gate Park for Alice's Summer Thing. It was an amazing experience being with 15,000 people in an open field just chilling while reading books and snacking. The event was a success and the best thing was that it was FREE. Anyways, it was the first time I heard if Andrew Allen and he is amazing LIVE! One Republic also killed it in the end and their performance of Good Life was the best of the day. But seriously guys, if you havent heard of Andrew Allen before, I think he's such a talented up and coming singer... and he's sooo hot too!!! =D

Love, G

P.S.

I know this is suppose to be a fashion blog but I havent even posted pictures of my outfits in the longest time but that's because Steven sucks at being my designated photographer =( BLAAAHHH... I promise though, there will be a lot of pics in the future because I think I shop at least twice a week.

2011 Top 5 Summer Essentials

My favorite season is here! I know summer can be extremely excruciating for some people but I'm the kind of person who thrives in heat! Here's my (most used) summer essentials this year!

5 Nars Blush in Taos - IDK about you but I think Nars makes the best blush ons. Taos has this dark coral color and a hint of shimmer that's gives you a nice blush perfect for summer.
4 Mac Lipstick in  Russian Red - I dont even have to explain why... Russian Red is the only color I consistently use day and night!
3 Forever 21 Hat - Aside from being stylish these hat also protects your mane from heat and is perfect when you don't have time to style your hair. I always braid my hair to the side and put these babies on for a summer effortless laid back look.
2 Jeffrey Campbell Lita - I've been lusting for a pair of these babies since last year and when I finally got them last month, I've been wearing them everywhere ever since. These babies are not only super comfy and chic but it also give you a towering height. It's perfect with shorts, tights and dress!
1 Loreal Bronzer in Glam Bronze - I am absolutely in love with this product. It's super inexpensive but the quality is topnotch. It gives you not just a beautiful bronze it also gives you this illuminating gold undertone! Perfect summer product especially for those having a hard time to get a perfect tan like me.

Have a good summer everyone!
Love, G

Game Of Thrones

NO SPOILERS INCLUDED... I promise ;)

I admit... I'm not the very best blogger and I have been ignoring this site lately. Sorry --- but after finals... my days consisted of finishing Stieg Larrson's Millenium series, chilling and watching summer movies, going to San Francisco and watching my (hands down) favorite TV series ever - Game of Thrones. For those of you who have been living under a rock the past 2 months, Game of Thrones is the latest epic series from HBO. Based on the bestselling book by George R.R. Martin, Game of Thrones is about different families fighting off to claim the throne. I know the premise seems kind of a cliche and boring but I watched the show not knowing what the story is about or not even seeing the trailer. Steven wanted to watch it badly and I even hesitated at first but the story and the production is mind blowing. After the first episode, I'm hooked. The beauty of it is that it did not follow the traditional storyline. Every episode you think you know what's going to happen but they take this false hope off you and they twist it and you just go "woahhh... I didn't expect that at all!"

Season 1 just ended 2 weeks ago and the ending just makes you want Season 2 to start RIGHT NOW. My favorite characters would be Arya and Ned Stark... Arya cos M. Williams is super cute and adorable and cos Sean Bean is just always perfect... and Daenerys and Khal Drogo... Their story went from OMG that'r horrible to OMG they're so cute together... Anyways... if you don't have anything to do for summer, disappointed with season 2 of spartacus and don't really have anything to do... Game of Thrones is a pretty epic show. I just ordered the 4 books and I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY HANDS OF THESE BABIES =D

Enjoy!!!
Love G

I'm having Khal Drogo/Daenerys withdrawals... sigh... =(
