When guys take it up a notch…

December 15, 20112 Comments

Girls notice. Promise you. Case in point: Ryan Gosling in Crazy Stupid Love. Yes he looked amazing, but more than that, I wanted his entire wardrobe for Ro. And he was on board! Attention to detail is something I think some guys have a hard time with. They don’t automatically think things like “should this jacket have a pocket square?” or “should I layer a sweater over this thermal?”. But oh what a difference it makes.

Boys, next time you dress to impress, ask yourself this question: What would Ryan wear?

Not A Fan of Fergie Fug

December 13, 20111 Comment

I must preface this by saying I am not a Fergie fan. I don’t understand her appeal and I can never get over her peeing on stage during a BEP concert. Yeah her music is ok but I just don’t like her and I can’t really explain why.

Here is a great reason to be annoyed with her. Why oh why would you EVER wear a dress that visibly cannot zip. There are so very many options of what to do when you realize it doesn’t zip and there are precious few minutes to spare.

Choose another dress
Wear a jacket
Get it altered
Skip the event

Next time, Fergie, please choose another option wisely.

Sometimes, a little loveliness makes all the difference.

Thankful

Counting one’s blessings is always a healthy and humbling thing to do. This year I’m thankful for a handsome new husband, a healthy and expanded family, sweet friends, puppies, yummy food, free time and so much more. I always think of Thanksgiving as a passage into six weeks of holidays and it’s lovely to be on the front end.

A happy girl is a pretty girl, don’t you agree?

Forgive me for the lack of posts. I’ve been sick. Hope to be back at full speed tomorrow.

Birthday!

Tomorrow is my brand new hubby’s birthday. We took the day off to celebrate (as if we really needed an occasion). Isn’t it so much fun to make merry and be carefree and just bask in happiness? Yeah the answer is yes.

I hope you’re celebrating something, anything this weekend!

A Spooky Little Girl like You

Halloween is one of my all-time favorite occasions. I LOVE to dress up in costume. I’m the kind of girl that wears wigs to a concert and noodles, so you can imagine…Luckily, my new husband shares my affinity for playing dress-up and allows himself to be “convinced” to participate.

At our rehearsal dinner, my mom made an extremely lovely video montage of us and we were dressed up in costume in so many of the pictures.

I began to embrace it as our equity. Here are some costumes from years past.

2008 Marlboro Man & Hula Girl

2009 Cavepeople

2010 Little Red & the Big Bad Wolf

This year we are being Zorro & some version of CZJ from Mask of Zorro. What about you?

Personal Rant: Is anyone else just so increasingly and abundantly sick of her? I mean, how many times can they play her freaking wedding? I’ve had to avoid E! for weeks in order to miss seeing her all the freaking time. Does she ever have any personal time when the cameras aren’t around (save the 3 hours (estimate) in the morning when she’s being put together). Seriously, what is so pleasant and fantastic about her and her family that the people of America (neigh, the world!) cannot get enough? I’m really not trying to be hateful. I’m just exasperated with seeing her on all of my favorite gossip sites and EVERYWHERE.

Doesn’t this hat just piss you off?

I was inspired by this ever-so-polite post by the fuggirls.
