New Look :)

Hello You Fab Fab Readers!!

A Cali Tale has new look! :) Do u likeeeeeeee??? Are you proud of me? I did it myself. Things are changing and I was thinking about doing a whole new layout but I chickened out and just changed the template. (It was sooo much easier lol) In other news the moving process has begun and I am so happy and excited!! My “munchkin” is also excited about the big move and I was surprised because he doesn’t like changing anything. I’ve attached an “outfit” from last week playing around in ricky’s studio. I pretended I was a model lol. This sweater I have on was 3 dollars and I wear it everyday. It’s the most comfy sweater I’ve ever had and to have gotten it for only 3 dollars is definitely a win win in my book!


Everything I have on is either thrifted or vintage. (Come on you know me)Once my internet gets hooked back up I will blog more showing you guys my favorite items I’ve snagged for our apartment as well as more outfit posts. I can’t wait to share; I’ll definitely keep you posted.


Love you 2 pieces ♥

New Tings Comin'

Hiiiii you guys!!! This month has started off super fantastic but, I am on work overload with ZERO help!! It's extremely stressful at times but I actually love the rush. (I'm weird I know) I have a few shoots coming up along with the men's expansion for my store. In addition to shooting I am in the process of moving into an apartment and with sammy. This is really huge deal to me! However, im sure we’ll be fine. (Crossing fingers and toes) lol jk… in other news in a month I'll be heading to VEGAS BABY for a business trip and I'm dragging my boyfriend with me lol.. Have you ever sat there and really thought about how blessed you are? I just did that a few hours ago and I can't believe how much I've grown within a year. I’m very proud of myself! I am working with a bunch of NEW models male & female and I’ve probably never been this wound up in my life about a photoshoot lol as I come closer to each one I’ll keep you wicked awesome readers up on what’s going on in the crazy world of Cali Shabazz.

Good Morning!!!

Happy New Year!! 8 days into 2012 and I'm already working so hard around the clock for CHAITEAVINTAGE and also expanding my store by adding a men's section. That's great news to the guys that follow the store!

Yesterday, ricky called me to style for a "spur of the moment" shoot with model Naray A. Who I think totally Rocked it! Naray is the sister of one of my favorite model's Nirvana whom I had the pleasure of using for my Chai Tea Vintage shoot in November. Naray was such a sweetheart and we had tons of fun shooting. The theme was A rebel I remixed it and called her a total Bad Ass!! Here are a few of our favorite shots! Tell me what you think?

Nothing but good good times I hope! The anticipation awaits.... Below I've cleared my inspiration borad recently and started fresh with new photos,fabrics,trends etc...
