Bday weekend Recap

Hiiiiiiiii!!!!!! As you guys know my birthday was yesterday. I spent it with Sammy & my family. It was a beautiful day and the first day of spring! We snapped a few shots and filmed a horrible video that I do not wish to write about lol.. I bet you guys wanna know what He got me right?? Well, on Friday we got dressed up and he took me to my favorite restaurant P.F Changs. OMG, I didnt even get an outfit shot! I blame him for making me forget... Anyway, he surprised me with this

A promise ring!! I love it!!!!!( I need to get a better pic. Sorry for the poor quality of this photo:p) I love my boyfriend so much he's so sweet and our relationship is simply perfect j/k nobody's relationship is perfect. However, we understand and support each other to the fullest. Im my happiest with him and I wouldn't trade him for the world. I want to tell you guys what he said once he gave me the ring but it's mushy and I know u all don't want to read about that lol....Here is some photo's of from our dinner..

CALI'S BDAY (PERSONAL STYLE CONTEST)

Hey Guys!! As you all know I've been extremely excited about my first contest/giveaway. So, let's get this party started. The contest is of course a personal style contest. Why? Because my first year of blogging I wasn't sure what type of blogger I wanted to be. Although Fashion was the topic in general, I didn't want to just blog about the different fashions. I wanted to add my life,personal feelings,travels and personal style. With that being said I started posting myself in different outfits and I loved it so I decided for year 2 of ACALITALE I will blog about my personal style as well as my friends & different people I meet throughout the year....



This contest will be about YOU! My readers! Yes, it is my birthday and my blog's birthday but I thought it would be more exciting to see your style and give back to you :)

Summer Dreaming

Hi Guys! I know you all are just about as tired of the cold weather as I am. I
can't wait until spring & summer. I can smell the blooming flowers already
(exaggerating) lol This Sunday, my birthday, is on the first day of spring.
Yay! I told you guys I was awesome lol j/k.. I'm so ready to throw my winter
coats,hats and gloves in the back of the basement for next year. I've had enough
of the blistering cold and sitting in my car for 10 minutes just to warm it up.
Bring on the boho hats,shorts,floral maxi dresses, pastels,lace,sandals,flip
flops, water ice and amusement parks. Let's all disappear in the warm weather
explore and capture all the memories on photograph. I can't wait to lay in the grass for hours gazing at the sun loving life, the long hours of sunlight,the butterflies,the sounds of laughter. I miss it all!..I'm sorry SLR you will be
put to work in just a few months. Haha Here are a few photos I've chosen as my
summer inspiration for right now. I hope they brighten your day!
