1920's with a twist

 

I thought I would start the New Year off with a brand new make up shoot.  I've decided to make Wigs my new favorite accessory.  Why not?  They're fun and aren't permanent.  If I want black hair for a few hours, I can certainly have it.

 

I did make up myself using a few of my favorite colors from the Tokidoki Robbery Palette.  I used Bare Minerals on the rest of my face. Lipstick is MAC. 

Snake Ring: BCBG

Studded Ring: Forever 21

The last ring is from a local thrift store. 

Color Palatte

These are some photos I took when I was home.  I love this burgundy, ivory, and pastel green color combination.  It's quite relaxing. 

Glimpses of Cuba

On a trip to Miami, my grandparents showed me some newly found pictures from an old family friend.  They are photographs from my grandfather's younger years back when he still lived in Cuba.  None of us (my sister, mother, cousins, etc) have seen any pictures from when they were in Cuba since they came to the US with nothing but the clothes they were wearing.  I loved the pictures, but loved capturing everyone's reaction even more.

It was funny to see my grandfather in his youth.  He was a blond, blue-eyd, skinny Cuban.  People always thought he was German, and it was easy to pick him out in each photo.  All you had to look for was the light hair. 

My sister especially loved these.

Downtown Adventure

I went to Downtown Pittsburgh recently and took a few pics... It's funny because I've been living here a while but never noticed some of these buildings.

Here's a tree on campus here at UCLA with some edits to it.

Here's a photo of my sister while she was spray painting outside... this isn't a normal thing for her by the way...

I Heart B&W

At a red light today I opened up my window and took this picture... I thought it looked interesting. I don't know why... there's no depth to it really, no symbolism or meaning. Maybe someone who is more creative than I am will find it to be extremely complex.
