Things I LOVE.

Decided to take a different spin today :)
Lately I've been in love with these 5 simple little things that seem to add a little color and diversity among my everyday gadgets and gizmos.
So here they are;

1. These eco-friendly post-it papers come in four sizes and are nestled in this lovely reusable keepsake box, perfect for scheduling and leaving important notes in my planner.
(Plus they also have cute quotes and patterns printed in soy ink!)














2.  These yellow flats from Target are perfect for summer and super comfy.
They'll event take you through fall when paired with tights :)

3.  My new favorite colors went from brights to pastels!
This mint nail color is a great alternative to the usual fushia's and coral's of summer.
Lavender and taupe are among my new fav's too.



  
4.  Leaf inspired headbands are my favorite! Both of these are from Urban Outfitters and shall be in my collection soon.



5. Finally, can't forget about coffee :)
Iced latte's from The Coffee Bean are delish, unfortunately the closest one is about 15 minutes away but they are worth the trip.

Hope to do more of these kind of posts soon :)
Stay tuned.

Just a thought.

About the last Friday before my summer turns into a work summer.
But I'm happy nonetheless :)
Made a coffee run for me and my padre, started scheduling photo shoots for next week (going to shoot some interesting restaurants) and took some time to relax before work at Targét.

The weather is getting hotter, and the weeks rolling by...
I can't wait to catch up with friends next week and put my photographing skills to the test at the New Times <3

Cheers to the weekend.

Little Weekly Update

This past week I feel like I've been working up a storm...
Not exactly how I planned on enjoying the break from school, but it is nice once payday comes around ;)

This past Saturday was a blast,
After getting off work, I headed home and got ready for dinner.
Bu this dinner was special...
My parents, aunt, grandmother, and Edwin all enjoyed a relaxing evening together at California Pizza Kitchen in central Phoenix.
This night in particular being special because it was the first time he had spent time with my closest family members all together.
The night went well, and is the start of many more nights with the whole family...



I am complete.
















Tis the last week I have to myself before my internship at the Phoenix New Times starts :)
Then my free time will be more sparse, but I'm beyond thrilled to start photographing.

I have the next two days off work and plan on relaxing most of today, (which includes reading and getting organized for my internship) and spending time with Edwin tomorrow.
I'm hoping we take a drive out to Scottsdale :)

This morning consisted of this:















Finished browsing through a new InStyle, started adding things to my new planner (courtesy of PrettyChic on Etsy), and enjoying a cup of joe.

Hopefully will be back with photos of more summer adventures.

Ta! :)

Week and weekend delight.

Gooooooood morning,
Just came back from taking my mom to work because she is receiving a company car from her work today, hello brand new Camry :)
Congrats to my lovely mother.

Anyways, this week is looking on the bright side.
Getting some sweet hours at work, starting to get paperwork done and contacting both of my internships coming up, get to spend time with two of my recently long-lost friends, and having dinner Saturday night with family (including Edwin)...



'Til then,
It's coffee time :)

These Days...
















Brewed myself some coffee and baked a few whole grain blueberry muffins for breakfast today :)




P.S.
Found out yesterday I'll be interning at Phoenix New Times doing photos over the summer! :)
So very excited
Yesterday morning made a Starbucks run with Edwin and enjoyed the morning reading The NY Times.















He's such a doll <3

Also enjoyed this with my cappuccino :)















Cheers to a good way to the (almost) end of the week.


Sincerely,
Diana

It's starting to feel like summer...

Goodness, a whole week has gone by and I barely have had time to post.
The weekend consisted of work, work, shopped for Mother's Day gifts, more work, and dinner with Edwin.

As the first official week off, I am so relieved the semester is over and that I can spend my days (when not working) enjoying my free extra time.

Like so:



















I bought this adorable planner this morning from Etsy.
Who says it's too early to start looking for supplies? ;)


The rest of this gorgeous and windy day started with breakfast with my lovely boyfriend.
Drove over to the arts and crafts store and bought some paint, brushes and other odds and ends for crafts projects me and him want to start doing over the summer :)
Painted a treasure chest for him, while he painted a photo frame.
Ate, and spent the rest of the day relaxing.

Tomorrow's plans include going for coffee,
grocery shopping,
and watching It's Complicated with grandma.


Sweet thangs.
-D

Semana final.

Last week of this crazy semester and I cannot express my fatigue, lol.
Today marked the start of this last week I'll be doing weekly deadlines and cramming in studying, which was spent working on last minute little odds and ends for classes&such.
Going to spend the rest of today planning out my week.
Then it's cappuccino's later on, courtesy of my lovely momma :)

Peace,
Diana
