FauxCo Chanel.

SJP has been rocking Chanel in multiple magazine spreads the past few weeks (Elle, Glamour) and making me lusty for a Coco inspired cardigan for myself…(How freaking adorable is that second picture? Love her.) I’ll have to settle for some FauxCo Chanel though, and luckily Forever21 is pumping out the Coco inspired looks lately:

Quilting bee.

I’m so excited, my cousin just gave birth to her first child, a baby boy named Samuel. And also exciting, I just finished a baby quilt for her… and don’t act surprised, I went with yellow and grey. I’m jealous of the baby though, I want to keep it for myself. At least I have [...]

Thanksgiving sharpie fumes.

My sister and I are freaks, and after Thanksgiving dinner last week, we went to Michael’s to take advantage of their 40% off pre-Black Friday deal (our cousin and aunt came too — at least the crafting freak flag is hereditary). (Side note: you really don’t want to know what kind of people go to [...]

Coachpradagucci.

Two things about this article alarm me: 46% of those who buy a counterfeit handbag end up purchasing the real thing… seriously? How come my Chinatown adventure last weekend in NY procured only crappy handbags with mix-and-match designer labels? I’m sad to part of the 54% who are still buying coachpradagucci fakes. This research study is being [...]

New York, New York.

A few highlights from my super fun New York weekend… The city was all tricked out with Holiday Decor… Saw the Rockefeller Christmas tree, and the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes… Hopped into Dylan’s Candy Bar for some major sweet-tooth indulgences More indulgences and some great decorations at Serendipity III… And being amazed by the Ikea no-slam [...]

Bursting with sparkle.

The sunburst mirror may be on its way to over-played… but this one, wow. I’ve never seen such sparkle! Anyone know where it’s from? via House of Turquoise

Rodarte for men?

Loving the looks from Rodarte for Target’s full lookbook, especially this dress… but seriously, is that model a man or a woman?

All wrapped up.

Elle is hurdling to the front spot of my favorite magazines lately… they’re doing such a great job on incorporating street style and high fashion. Maybe that’s why they sold more ad pages this year than Vogue? In the December issue there was a spread on the timeless Hermes scarves where everyday ‘tastemakers’ were asked to interpret the accessory in [...]

Kickin’ It.

I’m off to New York for probably one of my favorite ways to kick off the holiday season… seeing the Rockettes kick it in the Christmas spectacular at Radio City! I used to go when I was kid, and this year I’m resurrecting the tradition with one of my girlfriends, can’t wait! Image via Kate [...]

Bloody cute.

Disclaimer: I am NOT a Twihard. BUT, I did get invited to a New Moon movie party and had fun last night with some other vampire-obsessed gals. I have to share the hostess’ smart party idea… she melted down red candies and rimmed the top of the cocktail glasses with candy “blood.” How cute are they?
