NEW LOOK: STRAIGHT FRINGE!

have you ever given your trust to somebody that you will let them do anything to you because you know you're in good hands??? well I do, besides my family & my loves, I trust my hairdresser... she's always done a great job with my hair... I love her!! I've been with her for more than two years now... & I've basically been getting the same style for as long as I can remember... so, bored with the style that I had, I went to her last Friday & basically told her that I was clueless as to what I want... but I just want something different this time... soooo... this is what she came up with....

a blunt fringe!!!!
it's basically the same style...

the sides....

& even the back...

except for the front... I no longer have the side swept bangs....

I'm not sure if I like it yet.... it's something really different from what I am used to.... plus, I CAN'T SEE!! darn things are getting in my eyes... poking the heck out of me!! it's hella annoying but I guess it's something I'll get used to... so far, the people that's seen it has said that they loved the new look... but whacha think??? yay or nay to fringe??

just for fun.... before pictures!! the last pictures I took before the haircut....

that haircut has long been overdue... can you tell??? LOL


here are a few celebs that totally rocked fringe styles [in my opinion]...

Ashlee Simpson
(long eyebrow skimming bangs) 

Rachel Bilson
(blunt fringe)

Heidi Klum
(classic mall bangs) 

Camilla Belle
(straight fringe)
she gets the "rock the bangs" award! she's super cute with this hairstyle!!

Katie Holmes
(squared fringe)
I love this look on her as well!!

Kate Hudson
(parted fringe) 

Reese Witherspoon
(angled fringe) 

Mena Suvari
 (straight hair fringe)

A LITTLE UPDATE & SOME HAULIN

sorry for being.....

I feel like this was the most hectic month everrrr.... summer's officially ended, school's officially started (August 16th) & I am now officially the busiest Mom I've ever known... LOL.... as many of you know, I have 2 boys & they are now both goin to school.... my oldest, Devean, started 1st grade & my baby, Deion, started preschool..... & boy oh boy! lemme tell you I have never been this busy in my whole life... my day starts at 6:45 AM now... drop one off, drop the other off, pick one up, pick the other one up is what mostly consist my day.... they have different schedules too.... imagine if I'm workin?!? sheeeesshhhh!! that would be crazeee!!!

it was hard getting up really early in the morning at first coz I got so used to sleepin in until around lunch time... I picked up this habit since I stopped workin in '08 & kept it until right before school year started... I know, I know! it wasn't such a good habit, I'm not proud of it either.... I'm spoiled, I'm lazy, I'm too comfortable having people around that cooks & does other things that I don't have to worry about... but you know what, I'm glad I now have a reason to get up & do things, kick some sense of responsibility into me.... I gotta admit, I like it... I like getting up early in the morning, I get things done, I have time to do my workout.... & I feel like I get to bond with my kids more.... I love it....

{ some pictures of the little school boys & us droppin them off to their first day of school }
I was glad I get to capture this one... awwwww....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
my baby did not want Mommy to leave.... =( leavin him there cryin was the hardest thing to do...

but he was sure happy to see us when we picked him up later that day...












but yeah, that was the reason why I have abandoned my blog temporarily.... no more stayin up late during school nights & of course, weekend is play time.. so I really have no time to blog lately.... sorry to all my fellow beauty addicts that were looking forward to my posts.... I am still trying to adapt to my new schedule & I'm pretty sure I will find the time for bloggin eventually....

anyhoooo... back to the more interesting stuff...

so lately, while I was away from the whole blogging scene... I've been pickin up some stuff here & there... not too much though... for some reason, I don't see anything that really gets my attention.... I know I have stuff on my drool list but I just don't have a strong urge to pick any of them up....

here are the things I got for the last couple of weeks....

I also got several pieces of clothing & some accessories that I will blog about in a different post... I don't wanna go way overboard... so watch out for that...

another update.... I had my hair trimmed again... I'm actually tryin to grow it out, coz I'm getting kinda tired of this hair style, I've had it for more than almost 2 years now..... but the back gets so thick & shapeless.... so i had to visit my stylist for a little trim in the back & on the fringe...


cam whore much???
