Hi y'all! I'm Nikki and I blog over at The Pink Growl. My blog explores the everyday adventures of a Southern belle wannabe. I'm a girly girl, soon-to-be cop's wifey, doggy mama, and Vol for life. If it glitters, is gold or growls then I probably love it. I keep it real on my blog talking about everything from weight issues, the urge to get married & reproduce, planning my wedding and any random crazy ideas that comes into my head. Come on over and help me figure things out, one normal girl struggle at a time!

I'm Katrina Santos, I do have a lot of nicknames from my friends and relatives and I like all things simple, funny and interesting. I like listening to rap and hip hop, dancing and frequently exchanging banters with anyone. I started out my blog around September of 2011 and I'd like to say I started out ranting up to frequent what's ups until I learned that people actually read my stuff which shocked me and encouraged me to write actual stuff, together earning blogger friends which is amazing. I'm currently working on getting my own domain soon, to publish my blog to everyone I know, and possibly to earn a rank at TopBlogs PH. I've still got tons of days to go!

Hi! I'm Kimberly from A Night Owl, a blog about the evening antics of a working mom! I'm wife to my best friend Andre, and mother to two adorable boys, AJ and Alex. In my "spare time" I enjoy crafting, photography, thrifting, parties or a quick and easy recipe and have really enjoyed sharing this aspect of my life with all of you! I love to connect with new friends and would love for you to come by A Night Owl and introduce yourself!

Hi Friends!  Momma Anaya here from Bennett and the Jets, but you can call me Catie.  I'm a new mom, a new wife with an equally new life and as scary as change and newness is, I'm enjoying every minute of the ride.  I was lucky enough to be blessed with the most loving of husband's and cutests of baby's and I thank God daily for the constant humility that they bring me.  If you know me at all, you know I'm a writer and a dreamer...one who appreciates baby snuggles on Sundays and movie dates with my Husband. I love all things simple and crave just that...SIMPLICITY.  Life would be so much nicer if it were simple, right? Come on over and share in the chaotic, beautiful but mostly humorous life us Anaya's live.  See you soon!

three's a crowd....

Happy Wednesday loves! Soooo you know how i am all about being natural & embracing the mess, well today i have a fun example of embracing the mess but still pulling off a trendy look...

i love dressing up & getting all pretty but lets be honest there is not enough time for that...i rarely wear heels & you all know i don't do my hair much, so when i dress up i go big! But here's the funny thing - for the longest time i use to save all my "good" clothes for only special nights or events...it was pretty stupid considering i didn't go to that many "special" places. So instead of letting the clothes hang in my closet i decided to dress them down & make them more every day practical...oh & i named them too....

 Where's Waldo

Tank: The Lincoln Street Boutique :: Jeans: Citizens of Humanity :: Gladiators: MIA

 i love this dainty silky tank....it's light weight & soft. The all red back makes it even more unique...& instead of wearing this tank with black pants I paired it with dark jean skinnys that i rolled up & in place of black heels I paired it with black gladiators...& of course the glasses add a sassy touch.

::::

Bubblegum

Pants: The Lincoln Street Boutique :: Tank: B.P. Nordstrom  :: Jean Jacket: B.P. Nordstrom :: Flip flops: Havaianas

 I don't really consider pink pants dressy but i didn't want to go too crazy with the top considering they are bright pink. So I wore them with a silky black tank - you can never go wrong with black. I  love this black tank because it has the perfect amount of shine to it. I decided to only wear flip flops to keep with the simple look ....& of course i finished off the outfit with my jean jacket...you guys all know i love this jacket. I wear it with everything...i highly recommend investing in a light color one...it will save your life!

::::

Coral Crush 

Blouse: TBD Nordstrom "ya-da" :: Jeans: Citizens of Humanity :: Flats: Tory Burch :: Sunglasses: Rayban


so this top has a funny story behind it...i actually got it a few years ago...( i take REALLY good care of my clothes) so my mom use to hate this shirt...when i tried it on the first time she was very avid about me not buying it...i really didn't understand why, i was in love...but she thought the material felt cheap & not worth the money...well clearly i bought it anyway (she was not happy) & i wore it the very next day & have been wearing it for years now...


its the perfect bright coral color & i love the way it hangs. I paired it with the same jeans i wore with my Where's Waldo look...& finished off the outfit with my white Paten leather Tory's...& i love me some sunglasses so i got a little "matchy matchy" & got my white raybans out to complete the look....


::::


so there you have it - 3 outfits dressed down for a more everyday look...seriously, girls that wear heels every day - i do not know how you do it. you must have feet of steel because one day in heels & that's enough for the month for me ha! 


sooo which outfit was your favorite - where's waldo, bubble gum or coral crush? are you more a heel girl or a flat gal?

Happy Monday loves! so i don't know about you but I'm a huge fan of the Victoria Secret PINK collection...i could live in that stuff....i don't know if you guys already know this or not but Victoria Secret is branching out a making PINK stores....that's right, just a store filled with only PINK merchandise!!!! I think I've died & gone to heaven! now i don't know if everywhere is getting PINK stores, this is just what's going on in California...so i thought I'd share with you some photos from the store & the beautiful way they merchandised everything, because to me presentation is everything.

so much cute detail around the store like chairs and benches...all pink of course!

frame fabulouness!

now lets make our way into the AAAAMAZING dressing rooms

oh yes! the large PINK dog...i was obsessed!!!!

obsessed with bows

this was the cash wrap..all the pictures are current & old Victoria Secret Angles...so fabulous!

 besides having these fun light ups around the store they also had a massive huge TV that filled up an entire wall....the picture wouldn't come out clear enough to show you but it was crazy...& on the TV were Victoria Secret photo shoots...bananas!

*if you live in Orange County you can find a brand new PINK store at Fashion Island & they are currently putting one in the Shops at Mission Viejo
