Garden Princess

I did the makeup for my friend Rosie's photoshoot last week. It was so much fun and the final outcome is gorgeous! Here are two pics from the shoot!
(On a side note, I tried on some super-glittery Louboutins today and I'm in LOVE!!!)

Lost Lobster :(

I was waiting for this sweater dress to do on sale...but now it is sold out everywhere! I hate when that happens, but I wasn't about to pay $275 for it, unfortunately. Anyway, isn't it super cute!? I don't know what it is about lobsters...they are just so funny!

Inspiration Station

I could sit online all day looking at beautiful things...We are decorating our house and it is SO much FUN! Last night we painted the living room a blueish-grey colour and it is totally cool! Next is HOT PINK for the dining room! I'm sooooo excited! Here are a few pics that I found around the net that I also LOVE!

Christmas Countdown

4 Days 'til I'm on the BEACH by the OCEAN with the fam! Then it'll really feel like Christmas!!!
And my pasty skin will be able to catch some sun...definitely needed! I hope everyone's getting excited for the holidays! Do you like a white Christmas, or not? I like a white Christmas...when the white is SAND!!!

More Dresses!

AARrgh...so I almost bought a wedding dress...for the third time! I haven't had that "it's THE dress" feeling yet, but I'm also not sure I will. I just don't think I'm that kind of person! Too bad, because that would probably make the whole process easier! Don't get me wrong, I'm having SO much fun trying on dresses...it's just that I don't see it ending! haha I think there are just too many dresses out there and I want to try them all on before I choose. Seriously. I can make it my job.
Anyway, the one today was soooo pretty! I got measured and everything! Well, I know where it is if I want it...haha I need serious help!

Done!

FINALLY I am done with this semester! It's been the busiest one I've EVER had (and I've had way too many! haha). So now it's time to focus on catching up on sleep and the holidays! Oh, and decorating the house, of course! The fiancee and I have been to IKEA a few times for more than just food- surprising, I know! And we're going back tonight for dinner! Hot dogs and ice cream...yum! Uh oh, what about the wedding diet!? haha
I can't wait to show you some pics of the house! I'm so excited to have a home that doesn't look like a college house! Not that there's anything wrong with that...I'm just moving on, people! Okay, back to building furniture! Hope everyone's getting excited for Christmas!!!

I heart this dress!

Perfect Presents

Christmas shopping can get a little scary if you're on a budget. I always find such cute things but then walk away disappointed because they are just way too expensive. So sad. Well, here are 5, totally fun gifts that would be perfect for your friends and they're all under $20! Woohoo!

Essie Winter Mix mini nail polish kit- $17, nordstrom.com
New Moon Soundtrack- what Twilight fan wouldn't go nuts?!- $11.95

DKNY Buckle Bracelets- $12 each, nordstrom.com


Sparrow Salt & Pepper Shakers- too cute!- $14, fredflare.com


Glamour to Go III- $19.50, sephora.com

Pretty Postage

Don't we all wish we lived in France right now!? Maybe these will get people back on snail-mail! Personally, I'm a HUGE fan or sending (and getting! hint hint!) REAL mail- which reminds me- its almost time to send out the Christmas cards! These stamps designed by Alber Elbaz for Lanvin's 120th anniversary would be the perfect accessory for a sweet little letter! Hopefully North American designers will follow suit!
Night Dolls!

One of my all-time fave models, Caroline Trentini, for Numero Tokyo. PS. I want this outfit- ESP the booties!!!

Wedding Couture

I think I would faint if I got to wear an Elie Saab Couture dress...I can't stop drooling over these! I don't know what kind of dress I'm going to get, but I'm definitely going to try to get my hands (just a small touch!) on one of these! Just to be in the presence of something so incredible...okay, yeah you think it's just a dress, but you're wrong. OMG, I am in love! Can't wait to try on dresses!!! Happy Monday dolls! xoxx

Accessory Overkill

Headdress: Too much or just enough?! I think I need to wear this! I might prefer it in a hot pink though...I think it is eating up this model. Thanks Karl.

Sneak Peek

Who's excited for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show?! ME! haha. The BF, no, fiancee (!) and I watch it every year...I really have to tie him to the couch for this one! haha. Anyway, here's a sneak peek! I want Miranda Kerr's black outfit and especially those boots!!! The show will be on TV December 1st!
p.s. My unbelievably lucky friend in NYC auditioned to be in the audience (it was based purely on looks!) and made it!!! Yay Kirsten!

Cake Time!

Don't these look incredible!? I bet they taste pretty good too! My faves are the one that says 'love', the white one with pink/purple flowers and butterflies, and the weird one with the yellow circle- I know, SO bizarre...but there's just something about it that works! Which ones do you like?!
