If a June night could talk, it would probably boast it invented romance.

Brandon and I went to downtown and walked around the flower mart on Saturday. We bought the most amazing flowers. They were so so so cheap. seriously the prettiest flowers ever! We drove to cool different parts of dt and had a fun day together. it was the first time in months I even thought about wearing shorts. I found these from h&m and love how light they are. (and apparently see thru according to Fiance). The sun was shining and we loved it. Felt oh so nice.

Hope you are all having a great week!

The table decor and my fiance handing out sunflowers to each girl! ♥

Sunday was a dreamy, cloud 9, hands shaky, emotional kinda day. My amazing bridesmaids threw me the most beautiful bridal shower with 12 of my closest girlies! It was a hat shower at a tea house in Santa Monica called the Tudor House. It was beautiful! They made me a sign, and brought in the prettiest flowers for the table. Brandon's mom made all the desserts that are to die for! So fun! I loved everyones hats! I got the most amazing sexyfied gifts, fun cookbooks that have so much meaning, Mrs Scarpelli things including a bathing suit, jacket and hanger for my dress, gorgeous Bride stuff, aprons for the birde and groom, a burke williams gift card and more! and all the girls put together a photo album with pics of US inside. It was perfect! I seriously have the best friends! I have known some for years, recently got to know a few, worked with some, dance with some and are related to some. I love each relationship I have with them. They are all amazing and I am so blessed to have them all in my life. I felt so special yesterday thanks to all of them. Best day ever! I only cried a few times.....just a few... ;)


I made my bridesmaid a beautiful necklace as a little thank you for everything. They are sliced amethyst and each one was a different cut. i wrapped them in lace and made each name tag. i love anything handmade!

We also played a game and I failed. Brandon answered a bunch of questions and I had to answer how he would. let's just say.....we were off. I was off. way off. but i love him! :)

A very special thanks to my future husband! He showed up towards the end of the shower with gorgeous flowers for me, my mom and his mom. and then came back inside with sunflowers for every girl. he's perfect. in every way. ♥
I can't wait to be his wife!

Best bridal shower ever! I've dreamt about my bridal shower since I was a little girl and it was perfect in every way. I can't wait for my Shower in a few weeks with my family! ♥

I hope you all had a great weekend!

"Dance is the hidden language of the soul"

Saturday was the LA Unbound show and it was amazing! I had so much fun! I think this was the best show I've been in so far. Other shows seen here and here. The positive energy was so great and I had such a great day with all the dancers! ♥ Every performance was my favorite. There are so many talented dancers that I adore so much.

“Great dancers aren't great because of their technique; they are great because of their passion.”

Here's a sneak peak behind the scenes. I was a bird, a cowgirl and a patriotic hand dancer!













attempting to jump..


my amazing supporters! ♥




Such a great day! We rehearsed our booties off and worked the stage! best feeling ever! I'm going to miss everyone but can't wait for the next show! ♥
I am so sore and need to sleep for 3 days straight. sighhh...

Hope you all had a great weekend! Happy Father's day to all the men in your lives! I picked B up at the airport and we slept all day long. maybe because we were tired or maybe on purpose. either way...instead of being sad and feeling sad for myself we had a great night with a family that loves us! Some people choose to not want to be a part of your life and it's sad. But you can't hurt the people who do want to be your supporters. I am so blessed and thankful for the people in my life that care about me and support US. We BBQ'd, drank and played games with my family last night and all we did was laugh. best night ever! ♥

XOXO

"I don't want life to imitate art. I want life to be art." -Carrie Fisher

A sneak peak in to one of my dances for the show...We are birds in a bird cage. SQUAWK! oh yah! so exciting. the best part about this cage is that it sits on the corner of La Brea and 1st street and we got quite the crowd when we were practicing. for example-a cop came on his loud speaker and told the girls that's how people get hurt, another guy pulled up to the light and took pictures on his cell phone and every time someone walked by we got the strangest looks. priceless. practice makes perfect right???

Show time is in 2 days and I'm excited but so exhausted. We had rehearsals from 7-12am last night. coffee is my best friend and it's not even that great of a friendship right now. i need more.

Happy Thursday on this gloomy day. it was seriously raining on my way in to work. yuk.

Sunset Junction

♥ dress-unknown (have had it since highschool)
♥ necklace-forever 21
♥ heels-zigi soho
♥ burger-best place around. ;)

Last night we went to the premier of the movie Sunset Junction directed and written by a very talented dancer I met through LA Unbound, Jesus Rodriguez. The movie was beautiful!

"Sunset Junction: a personal musical" is a film by director Jesus Rodriguez. The film takes us through the lives of the underground artists who populate the Silverlake neighborhood of Los Angeles. Set to an original soundtrack, Jesus brings the film to life through stunning dance numbers that range from a classical ballet class to a passionate tango. Sunset Junction reminds us of our own creative struggles and inspires us to rethink the everyday.

The movie included most of the LA Unbound dancers I dance with and it was so great to watch them on the big screen and support them all! The dances were amazing, the story was intense and the love shared between everyone last night was magical. I am so lucky to have met such wonderful people through something i love to do! ♥

Hope you are all having a great week! Brandon left me today. :( he's in NJ for work. My dance show is this weekend and I am uber bummed he will miss it. sad sad sad.

i miss you already fiance.
