It took a lot for me to realize the horrible things about my past relationship, only after it had ended. Toxic relationships can be hard to identify sometimes when you’re in them. You come to love or be infatuated with a person and then blind yourself and convince yourself everything is fine, when it’s not. Just like that, I remained in such a relationship for almost 3 years.
(For Halloween, of course) P.S. This post is targeted towards a girl’s costume but if you’re a guy, that’s cool, too.
SO you wanna be a Unicorn, eh? Well, let me show you what Stacey can do for you with her magical powers… (no refunds)
Boo! ‘Tis near, but don’t fear; I’ve got you covered! Running out of ideas for Halloween? WELLL its ok. Here’s a list of costume ideas with which you could abuse your right to dress up as!
Ooh, another outfit inspiration!!! Today I went out in some of my higher fashion type inspired outfits, mainly because of something I did with my nails…
Here’s a fashion set I made a while ago on Polyvore. It was quite random and non inspired unlike many of my past sets. How surprising is it to find that Forever 21 is now having comic graphics included in their fashions now?! Check it on their website for yourself! Why not end this summer with bold comic prints to express yourself to the full extent?
Last night my terrible insomnia lead me into the wonders of experimenting with light once again… on film.
May the odds be ever in my favour!
The modeling (or modelling- however you prefer it) world has called me and I am looking forward to my very first modeling appointment. Now…As far as I know the agency that has called has gotten my application and wants to meet me. I’m guessing this is the modeling version of an interview, just without a resume… or a portfolio in my case. I have prepared some answers to questions but I am also prepared for a rejection (as I really am not expecting to be signed on my very first agency visit) and in the rare case I’m even prepared to face a possible scam.
They know I have minimum experience, and that I am a student meaning I’d work part time… Either way I’m very excited to go through with this adventure and I will of course be sure to update tomorrow to let you in the know of whether it’s really a scam or not! I have done my research and have found many complaints (one with an actual reply from the president of the agency- ouch!) but, the reply simply did not deny that they have a certain technique of “offering” anyone AND everyone a chance to enroll in their $900 classes… We shall see!
Even if I do get rejected in a way of “you’d benefit greatly from our courses” I will not stop in search for another opportunity. Let’s face it. One doesn’t give up so easily! 😉
Tip of the day:
Take constructive criticism well– A rejection doesn’t mean the end of the world. What did you think second chances are for? 😉
Take care my lovelies.

In between my summer days of facials and private tutoring sessions… I have found time to spend on my friends and taking a breath out in the countryside… where my skin can really breathe.
These past several days have been on quite a rollercoaster. Aside from some of the not so great things going on in my life, focusing on the really great things alone is easily overshadowing everything at this point.
One of the really great things I’d like to mention is an exquisite and decadent perfume which I have had the honor of winning from Gil (oh the magical Gil) whom also has a review of this perfume on his blog 😉 This amazing eau de toilette spray is the one and only Princess by Vera Wang! So far I am absolutely in LOVE with it and couldn’t thank 99perfume.com enough for sending it!
Oh yes, my dear followers… You may recall a while ago I had made a post about getting into the professional modelling world. Well, here you have it! I have just gotten a call today for a meeting with an agency downtown to look at starting a professional modelling career with a meeting next week… Just imagine me, finishing the phone call with shaky hands starting to dance and run around my house in pure joy.
Remember, success doesn’t come from doing nothing! 😉
Keep on summer loving!

The one… More like the one we search for forever and never find! (cough cough due to the media and society’s expectations!)
One must understand that searching for “the one” is not the right way to go. When you are searching for the one you easily have expectations for them… Such as, they have to be handsome, or they MUST love EVERYTHING I love. I will tell you in advance that is exactly how you fall OUT of love. In order to find someone, there has to be a connection, without question. The catch; it won’t only be one relationship with the strong connection… So, there really is no perfect “one”.
It is much like approaching different situations with an open mind. You see what you are most into or can have close ties with, and find a connection. WARNING: The connection doesn’t always spark off at first. It takes a bit of work, such as maybe texting and talking but as soon as feelings and passion are reciprocated, (RECIPROCATED, YOU HEAR? If the other person is unsure it’s not worth your time to wait. period.), you are more than welcome to introduce passion… This is the fuel to the fire. If passion runs out so will the want to try other (more passionate) people… So, keep the fire going! It’s like they say, if you’re bored it means you’re simply a boring person.
To ensure the passion keeps on keeping on, it is important if not essential to maintain your confidence and all of the good virtues in tact. For example, say you have trust issues. You can doubt them all you want, but communication is important and so you must tell the partner what’s wrong. This will give them a hint to fight for you. With that in order the last part is a bit of fun… You can never go wrong with trying something new together and always keeping busy, especially avoiding a routine.
If I could be a little more obvious I would also add:
-you must invest time and QUALITY time into a relationship.
-ensure you’re actually going somewhere in the relationship, don’t sit on the same pedestal forever (AHEM- if they still aren’t sure they want you then it shouldn’t even be a question!)
Lastly, I’d like to note out there to the dating newbies:
When you are first starting out in the dating world it may take time for one to handle a real relationship. There will be several short relationships. Those will not be useless… They each must have at least taught you something. All of these things add up until you come to a relationship where all your cards are at play- meaning you are ready for a real relationship.
I hope you all found this post interesting, as I have wanted to make a relationships advice post for a looong time.
XOXO, Stacette
