Starting 2012 with a bang!
FOTD for NYE along with my leopard print dress. Nothing too special for my face but, I did use gray/blues from the Sleek "Oh So Special" palette. (Which you can't see here...fail. But thank you Vicky ♡)
Paired off with my faux leather jacket from F21 and my knitted scarf I got as a Christmas gift from a friend..I was good to go!
We planned to go to Downtown Disney but the fog was super THICK. Ended up playing Monopoly in card form (which I suck at!) along with other random card games. It was definitely a fun night. Toasting with my sparkling cider and playing til the wee hours of the morning. Cheers to 2012.
My Japanese family's New Year's celebration. Apple arrangements!
All the food! There was a ton of "inari", which was my fav. sushi growing up. I'm so used to calling them "football"s though. lol.
Pile of gifts for the "white elephant" game. Hilarious and loads of fun to play.
I'll show you guys what I got in a separate post. ^^
I had a fantastic time with friends and family this past New Year's holiday. Though the holidays were quite hectic, there was a bittersweet feeling on the day after as we all went back to our daily routines. But, this time with a "new" start into the new year.
First beach trip of the year. LA weather calls for beach trips year round. ^^
And I recently got a trim! Not more stringy layers in the back. I think it definitely helps "thicken" my hair.
Thin crust pizza. YUM. Village Special (top) and Buffalo Chicken (bottom).
Dessert time. Such a cute, little place.
Chocolate coconut and chocolate peanut butter (which had real chucks of peanuts in the frosting!)
Hope you all are having a great start to 2012!
Here are some kitty pictures. ^^
