Girl Friday

Our big plans for the weekend include heading out to our friends' farm house for a Fall Festival...there will be lots of pumpkins...

hay rides...
a pumpkin patch ready to be picked...
and a good old fashion corn maze...
Malachai!! My Children of the Corn shout out.

Have a beautiful weekend!

Antique Time

Today, I am meeting up with a friend to go to antique row, then a late lunch. One thing I love about going to antique stores, you never know what you are going to find...
I would love to find a beautiful antique chandelier to hang in my bedroom...and some lamps for the family room...
I would love an oversized clock to hang over my mantle...

I have been searing for some vintage maps to frame and hang in our office...Maybe I will find that bar cart that has been on my mind for the past year...

Let the hunting begin!!

Celebrity Looks

Last week I did a post featuring your every day, non famous, fashionable New Yorker. Today I have a few pictures of your not so ordinary, very famous, fashionable New Yorker/Londoner/ LA girl.

Only SJP could pull off a leather dress...
and mixing bright red and bright pink.

Orange is not a color I would normally consider, but Gwynnie makes it look so amazing.And finally my girl Nicole, I am in love with this whole boho vibe. I would look absolutely ridiculous with a hippie headband on, but she looks so darn cute
All these ladies are my inspiration to put on something cute everyday!!

If I Had A Million Dollars

Well, Dr. Beautiful did not win the million dollar prize. He is a great golfer but the odds of winning were a million to one (no pun intended). However, I did spend my weekend fantasizing that he did win, and what I would do with that money.....

The top of my list, buy an apartment in Paris...

I am smitten with this parisian kitchen, I can see myself standing here whipping up a batch of french macaroons or perhaps coq au vin....

I would sit at my kitchen table, sipping my latte, staring out the window at la tour eiffel...
How perfect is this salon...

does anyone need a bubble bath? Mais oui, bien sur!
and here is where I would rest my exhausted self every night...
Another option to spend the hubby's winnings would be to redo/overhaul my closet...
which would be overflowing with these.... (this one's for you Cool Gal)
Unfortunately, if Dr. Beautiful had won, we would be about $500,000 shy of this dog. Hong Dong, the Red Tibetan Mastiff was recently sold to a Chinese business man for $1.5 million dollars...If you are spending $1.5 million on a dog, then you just have too much money!!

The "It" Bag

Olivia Palermo has been seen running all over NYC carrying a bag from Zara. This girl has the midas touch for fashion. Everything she wears/owns/carries is like gold and once she is photographed with something fabulous it sells out over night.She was also photographed with her German hunk. I searched the internet for gorgeous German models for sale but came up empty handed...
As a consolation prize I did find the Zara handbag. Of course camel is sold out, but you can still find it in black and this beautiful shade of blue..

I got my Zara bag to keep me warm at night!!

Girl Friday

This morning I am off to the launch party of our brand new Nordstrom, my hubs says he doesn't even want to know why I was invited, or why Nordstrom loves me so much...

Our first official tailgate party of the Fall...
Sunday, the hubs is playing in a golf tournament with his dad and brother....
He has a chance to win a million dollars....or a new 5 series BMW...

Later that night, dinner at the beautiful Log Cabin Club for the golf players and their dates...If all goes well, we will be driving home our new BMW. Ah a girl can dream!!

Have a beautiful weekend, mes amies!!

Off the Cuff

The internet has been buzzing about Miss Jolie's latest accessory to the Toronto premiere of Moneyball...Her Louis Vuitton gold clutch that was actually handcuffed to her wrist...
I can't get a read if people loved it, or hated it? I personally thought it was brilliant, and I absolutely loved it...
What I didn't really love was the $15,000 price tag. Ouch!!

Top Of My List

The number 1 item on my "must buy" list for the Fall is the long, pleated maxi skirt...I see this look everywhere, and I love it...


so simple....

and so chic...

What's on your list?

The Last Sign of Summer

The last of the hydrangeas from my yard, have been clipped and are now on my table. The last reminder of what a great summer 2011 was. Wonder what Madonna would say if she saw my table??

NYFW Picks

Another NYFW has come to an end. In case you missed out, photos from the shows, celebrities sitting front row, and scenes from the after parties are all over the internet. My favorite picks are actually not from any show, and not a celebrity or a model. I loved seeing the shots of just a stylish, non famous woman walking the streets of NYC. Here are my favorites...

the skirt, amazing...

the belt, the coat, amazing.....the leather shorts, love them!!
I don't know if I could pull off the leather shorts, but if anyone wants to try....
get your hot shorts here!
