Hello Bombshell!

I've grown a love for Vintage Pin Up Girls.I think it's the most beautiful and glamorous display of femininity! Ive always wanted to do a pin up shoot but too many people have done it and my fascination for it has fallen a bit flat..Here are a few of my favorites from Gil Elvgren,the greatest pin-up artist in the history of American Illustration. What do you all think? Aren't these paintings super sexy? I would love to have a few of them... Wishful thinking lol

(Making a personal note to blog more) How are you guys? I hope everything is going swell!! I have to tell you all my new favorite drink at my favorite place in the whole wide world,STARBUCKS!!!! I was skeptical about trying the new mocha coconut Frapp, but after standing in line for 10 minutes debating I finally decided to try it. OMG!!! It's freakin amazing! Pure Heaven I tell ya..If you haven't tried it yet, you must.

I changed my hair a bit. It's curly now. Oh, and I love bows. They are both kinda my "thing" right now. Everything is slowly changing and I like it!

A H.O.T Cali Tale

Hiya!!! I've received a few emails from readers wondering if Sammy, was indeed a photographer. To answer the F.A.Q lol He is not a photographer, he takes photos for my blog as a favor and as a Grrrreat boyfriend. Sammy is a videographer/director as well as an actor. Although he takes awesome photos, film is what his heart desires. I admire my boyfriend so much. From his work ethic to his creativity down to the way he supports me 1,000,000% He is such a good person and I am so proud and truly blessed to have a man as good as him. I've never met a person so driven and so focused. He is a go-getter and he's not allowing anything come between fulfilling his dream. I commend him for being that young and motivated. Sammy is in the process of starting his own production company called THE HOUSE OF TARANTINO. He's doing an extraordinary job building an empire as I like to call it. I know he will go far because he has the passion and he's on the right track!

I wish I could of set up a Q & A video for you guys so you can get to know him and myself. Matter of fact, I shall do that later on this week. That would be pretty cool! So be on the look out for that. With that being said now you know a little about my dearest sammy lol. I would like all of you to check out a few of his videos on his site and if you are interested shoot him a email. Sammy's contact information is on his site!!! Link below!
