Hello Lovelies,
My day began as many of my summer days do, walking up to the soft sounds of birds chirping their happy songs just outside my window mixed with the sounds of my mothers wind chimes brushing against each other in the faint ocean breeze. I savored the feeling of being enveloped in my pure white sheets for a few moment longer before rising for the day, carrying on with my morning routine of brushing my teeth, combing out my hair and settling down at my broad white desk to check emails, catch up on any new wordpress posts and set out the rest of my day.

Hello Lovelies!
Now it wouldn’t be a ‘Captivating Life to Live’ post if I didn’t begin with telling you all how long it has been since I’ve written to you last. I’m not going to even look at my last real post to see how long it’s been, because I know I’ll just be disappointed in myself. Anyways onto some more regular writings.
The other day as I sat atop my four poster antique bed frame, white fluffy comforting surrounding me like a cocoon, scrolling through the lovely blog posts of all the wonderful people here on wordpress, I ran across one blogger OnlyMassie, well know for her realistic role play style posts about an oh so famous alpha named Massie, from the Clique series. She was toying with the idea of starting up a RL blog, similar to my earlier posts on here, and it got me thinking about this blog, which I’ve neglected due to laziness and my perusal of my beauty blog. But she started hers up and it inspired me to give this blog a little bit more love.
After I was done catching up on all the blogs that I follow, I threw back the fluffy comforter and let my freshly manicure (pedicured just doesn’t sound right) toes touch the carpet as I set off to get ready for the day.
Since it’s summer I don’t invest all that much time getting ready, so simple makeup that merely enhanced my natural features and a quick run through my hair with my fingers until my hair held that beachy, tousled look, was all it took. I donned a pair of simple shorts with a loose T draped across my shoulders while golden embroidered flats adorned my feet. And even though the weather here in California has left something to be desired, who ever heard of misting in the middle of June, I refuse to dress anyway but for summer.
So with goosebumps prickling across my freshly shaven legs I took my MacBook Pro outside with me to our newly redecorated and landscaped patio to catch up on some upcoming blog posts for my beauty blog. There was a chill in the air that I stubbornly ignored, pretending that the sun was beaming down on me and that the wind the tickled my face was warm and inviting. But there was only so much cold I could take in my less that adequate clothing, so I went back inside to make the final touches on the posts, before going on with the rest of my day.
At about 3 or so in the afternoon my friend and I set off to complete some much needed errands, and in the middle of it all I got a call from my new boss, yes I got a new job! Asking me if I could start early the next day, but unfortunately because he told me there were something I needed to complete before starting work I had to put it off, which I’m quite glad about, this way I get one more final day of no work where I can fully take advantage of my spare time.
Then once home I had a light dinner of grilled chicken and vegetables before heading out to get all the things I needed for work, mostly just clothes for my uniform, even though it’s not really a uniform more of a quideline really.
When I got home I took my new purchases straight to my room to be admired and hung up amonst all my other closthes. And as it’s becoming my nightly ritual, sat down to watch a couple of episodes of True Blood, an HBO TV series based on a book series I’ve read. And now I sit with the ending credits rolling by, atop one of the many lounges in our TV room, a cup of steaming peppermint tea beside me, as I’m just about ready to climb into bed. I’ll leave things here as ther is no more to tell you all. But as always I you have any comments or questions please don’t hesitate to leave them down below I’d be more than pleased to respond.
Some Shoutouts!
Until next time . . .
XOXO

So when Makeup Your Mind tagged me for the award of “One Lovely Blog” I just about died with happiness, and I know I’ve thanks you already but again thank you dear
Hello Lovelies,
Today, since it was so lovely outside I decided to take advantage of it and soak up some rays. As I felt the sun warming my skin I looked around my recently landscaped yard and noticed the perfect blooming roses in our yard. They only look this lovely about one month of the year, so I decided to take a few snaps of them while I could! I always know how much fresh flowers make me feel a bit brighter and happier, so maybe these pictures will help brighten your day! Continue reading
Over the past few months I’ve been hearing more and more about this site called Bloglovin. At first I didn’t think anything of it, I thought it was just a new up and coming blogger format site like WP or Tumblr. And it wasn’t until I heard someone on youtube explain it in a way that actually made me understand what it was all about. It’s an amazing site that lets you follow all your favorite blogs, from any site, all in one place! It is so convenient for those of us, like myself, who visit a lot of different sites just to see all my fave blogs. But without being a member of all those various sites there wasn’t much of a way to conveniently know when they posted something new, other then checking back periodically. Continue reading
Hello Lovelies!
Summer is almost here! I can feel it on my sun warmed skin, see it in the glare of my Tom Ford shades, and smell it in the ocean scented breeze flowing through my hair. My shorts are getting shorter and my skin is getting darker, and the best part? School is almost over, just a couple more weeks till I’m home free. Well not entirely, I’ll have my summer job and my silly summer course. But it should be a snap so I’m not worried. Continue reading
Hello Lovelies!
So today as I was tiding up my room, picking up stray clothes, dropped hair ties and the forgotten lip balm on my bedside table, I came across my old “Clique” movie, which reminded me of you all! That style of writing and storytelling was one of the main inspirations for this blog. And then I thought, when in the world was the last time I even made a post for you all? And in my mind I thought two weeks tops, and then as I logged in I look and it’s been a month! An entire month! That’s so crazy to me, so I immediately stopped, sat down and began typing. And I guess because it’s been so long I’ll give a little update. Continue reading
Hello lovelies!
So spring break is coming up, and sorry for those of you it’s already past! I wish I would have had some forethought to this, but I guess just live and learn. Anyways, I thought it might be helpful to make a list of some things I think are spring break essentials. Keep in mind this list is more geared towards people in a warmer climate, or for those of you who will be going on vacay somewhere nice and warm. Continue reading
