Eat, Chic, Love!
Eat, Chic, Love: 3 words to describe these pretty wedding cakes below.
I'm in love with the simplicity of the designs, yet they all make a statement. From the cake stand to the very tip, these wedding cakes make my heart swoon. I will have a small chic cake at my wedding. How do you feed all the guests? Have your baker create a big sheet of cake and keep in back when ready to serve! Usually, a cost saver!

14 is the new 22…
Can you believe this is 14 year old Kendall Jenner? She's part of the Kardashian Clan if you don't know the name.
Anyways, how are kids looking so much older? I'm turning 23 in October and I still get that I look 18... Don't get me wrong her photos are gorgeous and I want every one of her outfits, but she's 14! I feel like I need to step it up! I know models start at a young age, but it startles me how kids are looking and acting so much older. I blame Miley Cyrus and Jaime Lynn Spears! Haha. Kendall is now the new face of Forever 21 and appearing in many print ads. The latest scandal was Kendall doing a sexy bikini shoot. She's too young! And yes I'm jealous ;)

Wedding Loves
As you know I work for a Wedding Coordinator and I'm constantly oooing and ahhhing over wedding blogs. The creativity, joy, and personal details are all so delightful. I cannot wait till the day where I can help plan someone's wedding and of course my own... Here are some decor items that have stored a place in my heart. They will find a way in my wedding that's for sure ;)
The hanging floral is super chic yet has the boho feel I love. Combined with a mason jar, the trio makes me swoon. Oh, my mason jar collection is growing quite nicely too. It's as start! The next photos are Papel Picado banners. They are Mexican paper cut art. I would love to bring a little of my culture into the design element as well. Don't worry plenty of Mexican food and margaritas will be present. I love how you can custom create the single leafs with your names and wedding date. Last but not least is the bakers twine. I'm a big fan of stripes and zig zags and to see it incorporated with string is so simple and fun! Great for wrapping up stationary, packages, favors, etc. Especially love the mason jar lid striped fabric wrapped up with the twine. I'm noticing a theme!
delightful!
Sources: {unknown} I'm usually good with this, but I'm always pulling photos into my inspiration folder from random wedding blogs & sometimes forget to name.

“If things start splitting…”
For some reason I can't stop watching this video.

You find yourself smiling because of their love, so strong, fun and daring. Yet it spirals down and by the end you feel so sad. You can't help but feel what they are feeling, whether you've been there or not. They really captured this song.

2 Crossed Off…
...the Bucket List! Continuing on with Ja'toi's post, here's my latest crossed off bucket list items! We decided to add this category to encourage others to LIVE! Life goes by too fast not to try as much as you can. First is jet skiing. I had the chance when I recently went to Laughlin, NV. Don't judge, Laughlin is growing out of its ghetto phase. Anyways, I know jet skiing doesn't seem pretty wild or out there, but I still worry! I'm not the most adventurous person. I was telling my boyfriend I wasn't going to drive and just cling on for dear life on the back. Which I did, but wow tons o' fun! And not so scary when you're the driver. Just like driving. You feel more in control. It was nice to get away and relax. The best part was taking a break and jumping in the river to cool off in the 100+ degree weather.
Second is shooting guns at the LA Gun Club! When our good friend Thea invited me to go, I was psyched! I've been wanting to go, but of course never made the time and was freaking nervous. However, the employees were easy going and trusted us like we were old pals. Which made me a little anxious because I was expecting a full body pat down and some kind of analysis, but no we received a quick lesson and in the booths we go! It didn't seem real and that we were actually shooting guns. I must admit my hands did hurt because I was anxious and holding the guns so tightly. I'm just glad I didn't come across any weirdos in there ;) All in all, a great experience and a must do!
What's on your bucket list?
Here's proof! Enjoy my cheesy captions.

Dare To Be Bare….
So Erica and I have decided to add a new category to the blog called "Le Bucket List". Where we try all these fun crazy adventures on our bucket lists for our blog followers!!! First up Imperial Health Nudes Spa....
This being my first time I was ready for some intense relaxation with the girls, but the regular massages, facials ,mani and pedis etc. However, I was very surprised when they handed me a robe and said "enter the "NUDE ZONE" please". After some heavy convincing (I know I am not the only women with some body image issues) I decided to stick to the rules and bared all for a relaxing day!
After finally feeling comfortable in my own skin I decided to finally relax and get the works! I tried the ACAI BERRY scrub which also comes with SHAMPOO & CONDITIONING, SCALP & FOOT MASSAGE, FRESH CUCUMBER MASK, and MILK WASH FINISH and that was just the first hour and a half!
This ended up being the best spa experience of my life! Not only were the prices excellent the facility and services were more than anyone could ask for. Once there you can stay as long as you like. I also tried the sauna, steam rooms, steam baths and nap rooms.
If you want a truly relaxing and liberating day at the spa PLEASE try the Imperial Health Spa... I Guarantee you will feel better about your body image and completely relaxed!
P.S. Don't forget to add Le Petite as a friend. Look to the right side bar! xoxo
