Free People Lovin'

The weather in LA the past week has been amazing and it is time for spring fashion! I have woken up everyday and struggled to find a perfect outfit. Thankfully, as I was online shopping, I stumbled upon tons of cute spring time necessities at Free People. I am loving the relaxed but polished look with crochet and lace pieces. Light colors like white, blush, and nude are great for spring as well. All of these outfits would be perfect for a sunny day paired with a cute gladiators.

P.S. Ironically, now it is pouring rain outside. I guess I might need to pull out my boots and sweaters just one more time!

And the Oscar Goes to...

Although James Franco and Anne Hathaway weren't as good as I had hoped, the red carpet was full of great fashion! And speaking of Anne Hathaway, how many dresses did she wear? 7? Well I loved her red carpet dress (the red Valentino) and also the burgundy dress by Atelier Versace. Also, I was a huge fan of Mila Kunis's lavender lace Elie Saab Couture dress. I thought it was lovely! Sandra Bullock also looked gorgeous in her scarlet Vera Wang gown. Red was very prominent on the red carpet this evening and it seems like the red trend will be big for spring as well!

The Best Cookie You Will Ever Eat

I know this is not a food blog, but I found this recipe and would have felt extremely guilty if I did not share it with all of you. This weekend I made cookies. No, not your ordinary cookies. I made Chocolate Chip Oreo Cookies, and let me tell you, they were delicious. Basically you put cookie dough around an Oreo, and then bake it in the oven. They turned out huge, amazing, and addicting. I found the recipe here. Happy baking!

Spring Trends

With this crazy LA weather, I have been dreaming of summer, only to be rudely awakened by it only being January. That means a whole other semester of school. Although it is still technically "winter," we can still embrace spring trends. This spring, lace, prints, and bright colors are all over the runway. Here are a few of my favorite pieces from Style.com.

Michael Kors

Isabel Marant

Anna Sui

Malandrino

P.S. My gel nails lasted for nearly 3 weeks, definitely worth the investment!

Happy New Year!

Hello lovelies, I hope you all are having a great new years! Wishing you all a great year filled with love, laughter, happiness, and of course fashion! Thank you so much for reading this year! xx Hannah

Gel Nails

On Sunday I decided to splurge at the nail salon and try getting "gel" soak off nail polish. Basically, the "gel" is supposed to last longer and not chip. It sounded like a great idea so I went for it. My friend and I were so intrigued by the process that we hardly noticed the 45 minutes go by. The way they apply the nail polish is through multiple coats, starting and ending with special gel coats, and after each coat you have to put your hands in a dryer. Also, your nails are dry the second they are done. The only down side is the price; it is a little more expensive, but hopefully it will be worth it. Also, at the salon I went to they had a pretty big selection of colors (you have to use the specific gel polishes) which was very nice. So far my nails are holding up great and hopefully they will continue to throughout the holidays.

Emma Watson

I'm going to assume that most of you have already seen Harry Potter 7 Part 1. I am a very avid Harry Potter fan, and thought the movie was fantastic (yes, I read the books). One of my favorite actresses is Emma Watson. Not only does she do a great job playing Hermione, but off screen she has impeccable style. In every picture, from the red carpet to the streets, her outfits are put together beautifully and she always looks amazing. Recently she chopped all of her hair off. Even though I prefer long hair, I think it looks great on her. However, I'm not sure how many other people could pull it off. Also, Emma is collaborating with People Tree a British clothing company. I'm hoping she will come out with her own line sometime in the near future.
