I was really looking forward to last week. Firstly because it offered some R&R from the week prior, which had me buzzing around like a chicken with its head cut off {and may or may not have ended in a mini break-down}. Secondly, it was voting week! Not only did we as Americans get to …

My InstaLife : Week 10/20-27
I realize that many bloggers do a weekly Instagram recap on their blogs and until now I thought it was a little redundant considering my Instagram photos also pop up on my Facebook page & Twitter {though sometimes they don’t}. However, not everyone is on Instagram and/or Facebook & Twitter and therefore missing out… or …

Completely Gratuitous JEWELRY Post…
If you’re a long-time reader of my blog, this post title may sound a little familiar to you… for those of you in the dark, back in the beginning, when I first began posting my outfits here {in late 2008}, I was a little embarrassed about the narcissistic nature of the whole thing. So to …
My Life… Photos… New & Vintage Finds…
This week will go down in history as one of the top 5 craziest weeks of my life. Yes, I feel a little dramatic even just typing that but it really has been insane. My manuscript was due to my publisher on Monday and admittedly, I’m a few days late in sending it in. Oh …
Alexander McQueen Fall 2012 SHOES
The late designer Alexander McQueen‘s collections are always more of a walking art exhibit to me than ready to wear or even couture fashion. Though the dress above, sans all the extras, is pure perfection! His creativity is beyond amazing, but not so much wearable for the everyday woman. The latest collection for the brand …
Beauty | Hair Tutorial // Pretty Wrapped Ponytail with a Twist
I actually created and planned this hair tutorial last week then randomly watched the Elie Saab Spring Couture show and realized my creation was a very similar style to the hair worn in the show. And though it is gorgeous, it wasn’t my original inspiration but I felt a bit obligated to refer to it. …

My Closet in My Dressing Room : Complete {OLD Closet & Dressing Room}
My office/dressing room is 99% complete. I’m just being an insane perfectionist at this moment and still have a few more finishing touches to add.

Flea Market Finds : The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall
As promised, here are the decor pieces/photos I shot the last time I was at The Sherman Oaks Antique Mall. Though they used to have more furniture than they keep in stock now, the home decor finds are ridiculously awesome. Seriously, I could go there every day and buy 75% of their inventory …but alas, …
Wish List // Iomoi Desk Accessories
As you know I’ve been slowly redoing my office yes I’m taking forever to share it, apologies and when I stumbled upon these fabulous desk-cessories the other day I just about squealed. No, I did.

For the first time ever, the Murietta League united as one at our house this morning to conduct their much anticipated 2010 Fantasy Football Draft. There were a few members who couldn’t make it and two more hiding back in my office for a very intense couple of hours full of harassing & haggling as …
