eat drink and be merry

zara leather jacket, urban jeans and top, 9west booties

This is what I threw on to grab a quick bite to eat tonight. I'm headed to Myrtle Beach in the morning, so I guess I should keep it short and sweet, and head to bed.

Happy Thanksgiving!

"just get me a really big closet"

So Carrie opted for the big closet instead of the big ring. I'm personally greedy, and want both! My current closet is a nightmare, and I can never find anything in it. I would probably feel the need to shop less, if I could actually see what I own. Here are some celeb closets that may make your heart skip a beat:


olivia wilde-i adore this closet, that also serves as an office for her. it is simple and i find it so charming. this would be my sanctuary.

kimora lee simmons-it's a little gaudy and cluttered for my taste, but i do think she is so fab!

mariah carey-awww, the shoes. i mean this is amazing. it's a little girly, but if it comes with all the shoes in my size, i'll take it!

nicky hilton-this is perfect! i love the dark floors, in contrast with the white chair and furniture, and how cute is the black & white entry door that brings it altogether? love it!

paula abdul-my favorite part about this closet is that she has a place for her belts. all of mine are on hangers and diffucult to get to. also love the space for her sunglasses...

christina aguilera- this is the picture that inspired this post! my taste is definitely not this bold and in your face, but i think this closet is to die for! i love the ladder. definitely something that would come in handy for me.

girls night out

zara blazer, f21 tank and skirt, jessica simpson booties

This is what I wore Friday night to dinner, drinks and lounging at the W.

Purple and red is my MOST favorite color combination, yet I never really manage to wear it. I’m happy my fabulous, fabulous time out with my girlfriends this past weekend afforded me the opportunity to explore this color combination!

Originally, I planned on pairing this look with strappy heels but I thought the outfit was super girly and I decide to edge it up a bit with my new Jessica Simpson booties. Never in a million years would I have thought that I would wear anything with the name Jessica Simpson branded on it, but I must say, she’s inching up there with BCBGirls as my go to place for affordable footwear.

timeless

In an effort to not give up on the blog, and make things more exciting for me (and hopefully you) I'm going to start posting slightly bigger pictures! Maybe, eventually, I will go even bigger, but baby steps for now. Anyway, this is what I wore to work on Monday. I've had this dress for a really long time. In fact, I bought it right before I went to Paris back in 2006, and I still love it just as much as I did back then. There's nothing like a piece of clothing that doesn't go out of style.

this is it

wendy katlen leather bomber, ??? scarf, urban pants, dolce vita boots, elliott luca bag

I went to see This Is It, and this is what I wore. Nothing special by any means, but when I knew I was going to see the movie, I also knew I was going to wear my Wendy Katlen leather bomber jacket, that my coworker so lovingly calls my "Michael Jackson jacket". Nothing else would have been more appropriate ;)

BTW if you haven't seen the movie, GO! I promise, you will not be disappointed.

mini skirts and leather...on sunday ;)

zara leather jacket, f21 skirt, mia shoes

This is what I wore to the movies, not to church, on Sunday. I saw Good Hair (still laughing), and I also perused H&M (the fall collection is great), and had a yummy Asian lunch (the crab and cheese rolls were interesting).

Did I mention the H&M fall collection was fab? I think the end of my shopping diet is very near. I've been too good for too long!
