living the dream
someone once told me output equals input. they were really smart. life is me preparing for an easter egg hunt. I have been placing these little egg gems all over, in my relationships with people, in my work, with my friends, with my own courage and determination all over the place for years. I feel like so far in the ten, my entire life has revolved around running around and picking them all...
right on.
things I am happy about: the moms who taught their little boys to open doors for girls. avocados. the left and right coasts-totally different and totally love able. spellcheck. bookstores. my agents. my glasses. opportunity. yes’s. no’s. teaching. inspiring. laughing. learning. growing. old friends. standing up for myself. truth. callbacks. auditions. work. paychecks. lack of sleep...
busy as a bee- happy as a clam.
This has been an amazing week. It started with the Sugar and Bruno Spring Photo shoot in Venice with Lacey + Chelsie. We got wacky at the end of the day + this happened. Then I got to head to NYC and teach some super fun classes: Today I had my fitting for my nationwide ad that I shoot this week, I love stylists. I have some super cute outfits. I also got 4 big fat giant No’s from...

So first a sneak peak at one of my new Sugar and Bruno items. This is the “blogger” tunic. This is the first time Sugar and Bruno has designed its own items. Usually, as you know, we make the designs and then print on american apparel. I brought up the idea of actually making garments that really fit, than no one else had, and that were 100% S+B. I love this shirt. The sleeves are...
forgranted.
I believe that the secret of life is being able to find happiness in the moment and being a strong enough person to realize when you have it really good, and be content. Things can always be better, and things can always be worse. I am not sure that unless you have been dragged through life a little, you have lived enough to be in this mindframe. I remember being 21 years old traveling around...
the more I talk about it the less I do control.
shhhhhhh… I feel weird. I had the most incredible day. I am almost scared to speak the level of incredible because it seems like every time I speak something out loud it is proof that it exists and then shorty after it gets taken away from me. So instead I called mom, whispered the good news. Thanked those responsible and went back to empire building. (I booked a national print ad today!...
on a monday.
it’s nice to know that perfection exists.
rotten love.
I think about you and what you’ve done. I think about you and what you’ve become. I think about me and what i’ve done. I think about me and what i’ve become.
the subway in hong kong smelled awful + there was...
sorry you wanted to live a boring life lived with safe choices, well thought out plans and the best possible decisions. sorry you wanted to never ever take giant leaps of faith, laugh without abandon or kiss so hard that you lost your breath. sorry you didn’t spend your life travelling the world, seeing the most beautiful things on earth and dipping your toes in all the seas. sorry you...
she's got it all.
one year ago today. we shot what would be the cover story “she’s got it all”. how ironic is that one? if there was a way to go back to this day in manhattan, i would. this cover changed my life. it was the happiest day for me. but i can’t go back. no one can. we can only go forward. so here i am- took off my perfect girl mask and i am stomping along in my combat boots of...
(365) days of keltie.
last week, i made a pact with myself that I would focus in myself for 365 days (inspired by my bestie christina…http://christinaperriblogs.tumblr.com/page/2) i went though my fb, my twitter, my phone and i deleted every single person that wasn’t my real friend, every single person that was some sort of replacement, or safety net, or even some sort of torture for my heart. i have many...

I had this amazing audition today. It was for a job that I really want. This job has nothing to do with dance. It has everything to do with all my other loves lights + camera + action + music. I rehearsed my sides all day. C.Perri came over and practiced with me + drank tea. I put on my best “hip girl” outfit and she lent me the lucky feather earring. I walked into my audition...
Chapter one:
hi. A wonderful friend suggested that I share begin sharing some excerpts of my book with my loyal readers. So, hi. I want to thank Christopher Gutierrez for being such an inspiration to me, and helping out a random girl who happens to write charming emails. Check out his work @ deadxstop.com. This is the first chapter of book but not the opening line. My aim was to show the reader that, I have...
are you blind? can't you see me standing here...
the greatest thing is knowing all the reasons why. the worst thing is knowing all the reasons why. the heartbreaking thing is the fact that there are always reasons why. reasons why I can’t love you. instead of reasons why I do.
