As the years pass, or rather the older I get, the more facial hair I seem to have, and I don’t like it. I don’t like it one bit. At least my hair is blonde though and only really is visible in the sunlight {though my husband loves to point it out to me when …
Business in front, Party in back
What I’m Wearing* Jigsaw London jersey sequined dress… courtesy of Jigsaw London. I LOVE this dress. I showed you it here but it’s so comfy and can be wore so many different ways. I’m excited to wear it more casually as well. {psst, it’s on sale right now too!}* Givenchy lace up tights… seen once …
Happy New Year!
Despite all the work I have to do, I’m rebelling and actually having a very lazy day. I am just now getting to my to-do list. And honestly, I wish the only thing on my to-do list today was to lie on the couch with the husband and watch movies. I suppose I’ll have to …
Silver & Gold Glitter Manicure // Nails for a New Year
I wanted something bright and festive and fun for New Year’s Eve and didn’t want to stick to just gold or just silver so I combined the two by painting half of my nail with one and the other half, with the other. It’s similar to my dark glitter stripe manicure and nude glitter stripe …
You Can Check Out Any Time You Like But You Can Never Leave

* Our California Christmas *
As usual, it was a warm and sunny Christmas day here in Los Angeles and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love it. I remember riding my brand new skateboard in my brand new fringe boots and denim Guess mini skirt in the 80’s on a sunny Christmas morning and marveling in it… …
Merry Christmas!
We are so happy to have our little family all home and back together, it’s the only thing that matters this Christmas morning. LeRoy’s a little banged up and randomly shaved all over his little body but he’s ridiculously happy to be home as well. We wish you the Merriest of days today whether you …
Holiday Decorating… and a few updates
While our tree is very non-traditional in color this year, the rest of our decor is very stereotypically Christmassy. I actually didn’t go too crazy, just the mantel and tabletop and front door. Our pretty white lights strewn over the outside of our house is my favorite part, yet they don’t photograph as nicely as …
One look at You & I can’t Disguise
What I’m Wearing* J Brand black coated leggings/jeans {courtesy of J brand jeans}… I love them. They have little sparkles all over them but are subtle and from a distance, have a leather-like look. They’re pretty stretchy and since I’ve lost a few lbs, I could have sized down, but they are comfy!* Vintage black …
Red & Green Nails ~ A Simple Christmas Manicure
I loved my festive glitter striped nails for about two days. Then, I have to admit, it was just too much for me. So I scaled down to a much simpler, yet still festive Christmas manicure of red and green. I really wasn’t going to post about them but had a few questions via my …
Pinterest, Pinspire, very Pinteresting
Eavesdropping on a random tweet conversation via Holly of Decor8 & Anna of Doorsixteen, I followed a link about a new copycat site called Pinspire. By the name I immediately knew it was a clone of Pinterest and while I’ve seen this happening all over the internet on various different levels, I wondered if it …
Downer Alert: I Thought This was It
I’ll never have a baby. And as soon as I stop thinking that way for even just a minute, I am reminded of it in the worst possible way. The hope/disappointment cycle reminds me of my relationship with my late father, which now that I think about it, has always been a part of my …
Cherish the Joy you Bring to my Life

Festive Holiday Nails ~ Glitter Stripes
Another fun Martha Stewart glitter glue manicure! Stripes would be almost impossible for me to do without these easy squeezy tubes! I swear this stuff comes in so handy {hehe -no pun intended} for so many projects. I haven’t had red nails in so long I can’t even remember. The husband loves them {with or …
A Casual Thursday with Delilah
What I’m Wearing* BB Dakota gray cardigan with fringe* Charcoal gray burnout trapeze tank {no brand}* Victoria’s Secret fold-over yoga leggings {which are super comfy though they do bag-out a bit, as you can see around my knees} but I like them because they’re really thick and you can actually wear them as pants. * …
