Hey guys, I recently went to my grandparents house for Russian Christmas (I'm a small part Russian). They live up toward Mt. Hood (in Oregon, where I live)and since I never get to take pictures in the snow because I live in Portland I wanted to make sure I got a few pictures while I was up there. Close to their place was this river and this little creek, it was SO gorgeous there. It was nice and sunny even too! Although it may be hard to tell in some of my pictures. Hehe.
I've been listening to a lot of Adventure Club because I was sad I couldn't go see them when they were in town! They do this mix of Collect Call by Metric and I love this remix. You should check it out if you're a fan of either Metric or Adventure Club! The song is absolutely beautiful.
So, to continue on, here are some of the photos I took!
Isn't it GORGEOUS?
I LOVE this sweater, It's actually my boyfriends, but I think it looks cute on me. Hehe
So on new years Jenna and I decided to go out and take some photos. I had just gotten this shirt at Urban Outfitters and I LOVED it. I wanted to wear it at soon as possible, Unfortunately it was FREEZING that day. I wanted to wear the shirt with shorts, so I dealt with the coldness and braved the winds to take a few photos. I'm not sure how much I like the neck line, so I might end up cutting it out. Once I'm brave enough too. It always takes me forever to cut up shirts and what not. Not much to say about the outfit other than it was freezing! Hahah, Anyways, Here are a few photos.

Recently I got to Participate in the Lolita Fashion Show at Newcon. It was rather exciting, even though the event was rather small. This was the first year for Newcon but it was a fun experience being around that many Lolita's at one time again. I know that Lolita isn't one of the more popular styles on Lookbook but it's one I love and I wish more people enjoyed it as well. But for those of you that do like the Lolita style, more power to you!
I felt like this look fits my blog title very well. It's the usual Sweet with a twist that I love oh so much. I walked in the show as "Pastel Goth" Lolita as well as Shiro (All White). I Love, love, love any style that may be considered pastel goth. Usually has all of my favorite colors! In any case, here are some pictures from that day! I wish I could have gotten better ones but oh well. The show got out after it was already dark outside but these photos are a bit Grungier, so what's not to enjoy?
I absolutely LOVE these new Hair accessories that I got from Kreepsville666!
Probably one of my Favorite Lolita Cords, Absolutely Love Sugar Hearts by Angelic Pretty!
And here are a few Bonus pictures of a few friends and I from after the show! Including Jenna From the blog "All That Glitters" and my friend Brittni, who's first time wearing Lolita was that day, Sporting my Jewellery Jelly in Mint by Angelic Pretty!
And here is a picture of me and another model from the show sporting our Kuro and Shiro Cords. This Shiro dress was handmade by one of our Own in the community! Hopefully I'll make another post with more pictures from the show later!

Thanks for stopping by!
Hello everyone! I'm back with a new post! However, this wasn't really inspired by anything so I don't have much to talk about for it. Hehe, oh well. I recently just got my hair all back to blond and have been reminiscing wearing lots of black eye make up, so I wanted my look to be edgy but not completely, maybe soften if up with a cashmere scarf and some sweet Velvet heels. All I've got to say is I wish I had some red lipstick though! I've kinda got the "London" Feel to this look, with the added boyfriend England Flag Scarf.
So, Please, take a look!
Some of my favorite Leggings from American Apparel!
I absolutely Love this suit jacket. I found it in the basement of the restaurant/hotel my father used to work in. I think it used to be a uniform. But I got to keep it, It's hard to find things to wear with it since it always covers up what's underneath!
Just a few simple accessories.

Here I am back and posting another look! I've been waiting to find an outfit good enough to take Lookbook pictures in considering that on the weekdays I've got school Tuesdays and Thursdays, Yoga first thing in the morning so I usually end up wearing yoga pants at school. Can't help it, they're just so comfortable! A few weeks ago though I FINALLY ordered the Good Vs Evil Leggings from Pretty sucks I have been eying these leggings for so long! I finally got around to getting them and I am so glad that I did. I absolutely love them. However I feel really short, the leggings are pretty long on me even though I got a small!
I decided to go with this Title because I have been OBSESSING with Sleeping with Sirens, I can't help it, Kellin is too great, with great lyrical content and a sound that a lot of music has been missing for awhile. The song that inspired this look is If I'm James Dean, You're Audrey Hepburn by Sleeping with Sirens. I figured With these leggings titled Good Vs. Evil It fit pretty well. Added with a lot of James Dean Style with the leather. Hope you enjoy the look and check out this song!
Hey Guys I'm back with a new look, and a new hair color! I got bored of waiting around to have someone professionally do it. I call this look the Candy Swirl. It's got a mix of Blonde, Pink and Purple in it. It looks like a Delicious Candy Cane when I curl it! I kind of miss the blond now that I've dyed it, so I might go back to that after awhile. I hate how often I change my hair! But my choice of what color I want it to be is always changing.
So, awhile ago I went back to school shopping and realized I don't think I've put any of my new clothes on lookbook! So this mint shirt is one of the things that I got when I went back to school shopping. I am so lucky that Pale Pink and Mint Green are totally in right now! Some of my Favorite colors!
I actually used a necklace and made it smaller to get the bird to stay there!
Also, Song title comes from a new favorite song of mine, I've pretty much listened to this song every day since my best friend showed it to me! I love it, It's got kind of a country/ 90's TLC sound to it. It's an interesting song from a band I've been listening to for a bit. But this is on their newer album. I love the idea behind the words of this song, it really helped me because I was having an awful day and this song relates to my state of being on that day she showed me.
Take a Sec and watch and listen to this lovely song.

You know, I guess I am going to start talking about my titles. Some of you may recognized some of them as lyrics that are found in songs. They're usually something I've been listening to lately, an old favorite or a line that I feel just fits well with my look.
This line is from one of my favorite Artists of all time. They will never leave my heart even if they are "Older" now. The Spill Canvas was introduced to me in High School by a crush. I'm always seeing how their songs can apply to me and they're often my "Sing-a-long on a rainy day" kinda music. <3 I've found their lyrics very poetic. A reason I love them. I love poetry. I actually have some written on another blog on this account if you'd like to check it out. :]
Check them out!
Anywho, moving on.
It's been awhile since a friend and I have gotten dressed up and headed out somewhere to take pictures for each other. Always one of my favorite things to do and I wish I still did it as often as I used to. It often is something along the lines of taking hours to do makeup, hair, dressing and going out and taking pictures. My friend Savannah and I did and here are some of the photos she took for me.

The outfit was super comfortable! Considering I was only wear a dress and some accessories. No shoes in this shoot! Running around the woods barefoot can be Fun, dangerous, and dirty! haha I had a great time though. :] I really liked the goldish and turquoise colors together!
