Do stores just not want me to spend money or something? I went shopping today with Candice who (thank God) is back from Barcelona and I must say I didn't find much...but the shopping trip itself was fun! Candice got a gorgeous Tory Burch clutch today and I would say that was the highlight of the shopping trip. I was pretty happy with a few ...

Outfit of the Day & MAC Eyeshadow Rave!
This outfit isn't from today, but I thought I'd post it anyway. It's one of the dresses I got on sale at Zara that has the Grecian-style draped front. As I've said before, I love dresses for work because it's so EASY. It's one piece, maybe a belt, throw a sweater on top and you're good to go. I must admit I've been struggling with dresses ...
Finally Got Our Wedding Photos! (photo-heavy, obvs)
Today was definitely better than Monday...definitely. I had to have an emergency bump removed from my lower lash line (don't worry, nothing serious or contagious) yesterday which kind of hurt. If you've had one before, you know. Towards the end of my workday I started to feel feverish, hot and cold flashes, migraine, nausea the ...
Quick OOTN & Evening Makeup Look
We went out for a friend's birthday tonight so I decided it would be the perfect time to break out a mini dress I got at Forever 21 over a month ago. I used a cotton tube-style skirt underneath as both a slip and just in case the wind blew, so I wouldn't be exposed since the dress is so loose. I just love the uniqueness of this dress! I also ...
A Micro-Trim & Some Weekend Shopping
Happy Saturday! I must admit my morning started off badly today. I had massive cramps (TMI, I know) and just did NOT feel good. But I had to drag myself out of bed because I had a hair trim appointment this morning with the lovely Stephanie at Toni and Guy in the Galleria mall. I was really happy with my trim. Hardly any length off, and my ...
Gucci Gets “Guilty”- Mini-Film Features True Blood’s Evan Rachel Wood (Love!)
I was contacted by Gucci recently about their new fragrance "Gucci Guilty." It piqued my interest because they actually designed a viral and social media plan around a video they created to launch the product. I also featured their ad as one of my "favorites" from the September issue of VOGUE in one of my posts earlier this week. Gucci ...
Requested: My Hair Routine in 10 Steps (picture-heavy)
This has been a very requested post so I FINALLY remembered to leave my camera in the bathroom last night so that this morning I would think to myself "why is there a camera in my bathroom?" and then I'd realize that I promised I would do my hair tutorial post. Sorry it's taken me so long. Let's get started! Step 1: Brush your ...
OOTD & GAP’s New Line of Dress Pants: Black Magic?
Happy Wednesday everyone! I had a meeting today for work so I decided to stick with a simple look: all black, of course. As you all know I wear black a lot because it's easy and flattering. Yesterday one of the ads I showed from the September issue of VOGUE was a GAP ad for their new line of dress pants called "Black Magic." I hope ...
The September Issue: Favorite Ads & More! (picture-heavy)
Every year, I buy the September issue of Vogue just to see all of the amazing fall ads (and of course to read the content, which is a very small percentage of the magazine's total pages.) I currently subscribe to a lot of magazines, so I have a lot of "September Issue" reading (and admiring) to do. I peeped into the VOGUE I bought today and ...
Dressing Your Age: Do You? Join the Discussion.
Today I read an article in the LA Times about Ann Taylor changing their look to become more modern and also to target younger shoppers. Here are some excerpts from that piece: The women's apparel chain is trying to shake its "Corporate Cathy" image with the help of a design overhaul, updated stores and a new celebrity spokeswoman — Naomi ...
