I adore this gorgeous and inspiring editorial. Sometimes I like the idea of being dressed to the nines with no particular plans at all…

Hello Again…

The party’s over…well…the holiday is over & I am back in action. Thankfully, there are more holidays on the way! I hope you enjoyed yours.

Dear Readers,

All three of you…I hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving holiday. I wish everyone was able to take off  most of the week like me. I know you’re jealous if you are not one of those people. I know I would be if I were you. However, even though you begrudge my time off, you cannot take it away from me. For that and for you, I am thankful.

I must tell you I will probably take a hiatus from posting as often as I like to in regular life in favor of drinking wine on someone’s couch mid-day while watching soapnet, forcing my brothers to listen to my music or “helping my mom cook” which also entails magazine reading and perusing her closet. Also, there will be plenty of time spent in the tub (see etsy).

While I’m away, do a few things for me.

  • Go see Burlesque and tell me about it: so I don’t have to because I fear I’d never stop complaining about it and that’s not good for anyone.
  • Check out GoFugYourself. It is so freaking funny and I love it.
  • Try some Man Repelling. I have a serious and not-so-secret crush on Leandra Medine, the author and her man-getter to man-repeller instruction manuals.
  • Check this ridiculous website for office gifts: Knock Knock

And…if you’re interested in some of my favorite posts of late

Beauty Inspiration: Kim Noorda

Kim Noorda is my new favorite model/beauty/face. She’s so lovely and natural and I just love all these shots of her. Thought you might too. I also read an article she wrote for April 10 Vogue detailing her struggle with body image. She has legitimate concerns and a very personable, likable voice. Read the article here and see more photos here.
