Valentino, deer & other things.

I’ve discovered a website to adore: gofugyourself.com has me all excited. On another note and discovered via the fug girls, is it possible that Valentino really looks like this?

Over the weekend I went to South Arkansas with my bf. It was a good trip. His family is lovely and rather un-crazy so it’s always nice to see them. This particular weekend we went to the hunting camp and yours truly happened to witness two large bucks (the deer with the antlers for those of us unfamiliar) “locked-up” in the throes of some sort of Planet Earth-worthy altercation. I was rather proud that I chose to wear knee-high flat boots (thanks forever21!) as I sauntered through the forest hoping to get a look at the Bambi’s daddies/hoping to find a nearby tree if there was any chance of getting skewered. Boyfriend and I were a little behind the action but we did catch glimpses and in the end, the bucks were freed with the help of a 12-foot chainsaw, only an antler and an eyeball were lost…and there’s a video…to be posted shortly.

Happy (almost) Holiday Weekend

Here’s hoping we all have magical weekends complete with frivolity and fun. I’m feeling heady with the promise of a few days off next week surrounded by friends and family. My beau is whisking me off to South Arkansas where we will eat, drink, go to an island in the Mississippi River, sit by the fire and inevitably see Harry Potter. This weekend looks to be the very last warm one we’ll have before we slip into holiday season and look forward to Spring.

Birthday Party

It’s Ro’s birthday and I’m throwing a little soiree for him. I love birthdays, really I love any occasion to celebrate…there will be high heels and champagne. Hopefully I can coax some dancing out of him…

This dress from ModCloth would be the perfect party-hostess-dress, don’t you think?

Can anyone else not get over Teenage Dream from Glee? I’m not a Katy Perry fan but damn! I cannot get the song out of my head. Go here if you haven’t seen it. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

A Bow

The weekend went by way too fast. On another note, I think I’m going to start wearing bows again.

Kick Up or Kick Back

It’s Friday!! Kick up your heels or kick back and relax. I am definitely going to attempt to enjoy this (maybe) last weekend of temps above 80. A little sun, a little romance?
