Ballet Done Right

I had the oppertunity to witness the art of ballet at its finest! Ulyana Lopatkina and other dancers of the Kiev national ballet company paied tribute to Anna Pavlova And I am still in awe of how breath taking it was. They did Pas De duex from many of my favorite ballets like Esmerelda (Ulyana was sassy as a fire cracker) Copellea Fire Bird, la bayadere. and of course the Dying Swan as Pavlova was known for. I was never a huge fan of this variation... seeing it at countless Grand Prixs and other batter competitions no one ever hit it on the head... Until tonight seeing the amazing dancer just put that spark under my booty i needed! When ballet is done right it is one of the most magical experiences one can ever come across i am so grateful to have to opportunity to study this art and to see it in one of the most beautiful cities with some of the most beautiful dancers in the world!

Shoe Spotlight! 2

Today I decided to spotlight two shoes.. because well I CAN!

The first shoe is by Steve Madden. These are literally my go to shoes. Nude is perfect for every season and they help make your legs look Marisa Miller long!

I have had these shoes for YEARS and I LOVE LOVE Them!


The second shoe surprised me as well. (by Halogen) If you really know me you know im not one to wear flats. my philosophy is the higher the better ;) but I got these shoes two weeks ago and im really liking them. I feel like a girly girl so i wear them with my little sun dresses... I LOVE the bow. Look how cute they are!

These are also in nude which again can go with ANYTHING!

These shoes are staples every girl needs a good nude shoe.

A little side note I got dragged to see Spider Man last night and me personally did not like the first three. Never was a fan so I really didn't want to go to see the movie at midnight and im getting old and sleep threw anything playing past 10. So i was yelling at my cousin Thomas for coming to my apartment and taking me to this movie. But I have to admit I was WRONG! It was quite entertaining and I stayed up! But I have been a fan of Andrew since Social Network and he did very well in this film plus EMMA STONE is in it... Love her! So if you are seeing a movie that is NOT Magic Mike (xoxo) GO SEE SPIDER MAN!

Happy 4th everyone! Make it a great one and be safe! See you all on University tonight ;)

You Da HO!

This weekend I went on another adventure up to Boise Idaho. Every time I think im going up there I just laugh... really Boise? But as I drive towards Eagle I get secretly excited :) Its so pretty plus some of my favorite cousins are there! Troy and Shawnel plus Steve and Makita. I love my aunts and Uncles!!! and their AMAZING Kids... the drive up there, I cant lie ... SUCKS! but I had some really cool people with me! Ra Ra (Marisa) and CJ. They sure kept me entertained as we drove threw the treacherous roads of Idaho.  We got there just in time for Jaxons baptism and 17 out of 18 of us grandchildren/cousins where there! (Brandon had more important things to do ;) I cant belive how much everyone has grown up. Brock is driving! SOO Crazy. The baptism was awesome. So proud of Jaxon and Troy and Shawnel for being such awesome parents. After the baptism we went to this park and Troy got a BOUNCY HOUSE!! greatest thing ever! yes im 8 as well... It was so much fun being with my family up in Idaho. I was sad I had to say good bye to Marisa. She spent the week with me here in Utah. I LOVE THAT NUGGET. The way down was so fun CJ and I had a big dance party with all my old CDs I made starting my JR year of high school called "Car Jams" priceless stuff right there, Always a good time when car jams are involved.

Happy to be back and working ... Only one more month till i leave for Ukraine.. HOLY COW! Its happening

Shoe Spotlight 1

We started driving down there at 1pm watched the eclipse and came back :) It was so fun no matter how long it was.

Colors of the Season

I have never thought as myself as a "Girly Girl" yes I am overly obsessed with Shoes and Makeup and my true love is dancing. But other than that id rather be playing basketball or watching football. Lately i have been infatuated with pastel colors that have been happening this spring season in fashion! I mean how can you NOT fall in love with the lively combinations, just looking at them puts me in a better mood. I even dyed my hair PINK to have this uplifting feeling everyday! Hope you all have a FABULOUS FRIDAY! Lets do something UNEXPECTED!

Even FOOD seems just lovelier

Make each day brighter Make Each day better!! <3
