Back to Reality

After spending a week in the sun, in the fairy tale land also know as the 30A, it so hard to come back to responsibilities, cold weather, jobs...also known as life.

For an entire week I did not have a care in the world, I spent my days on the beach, my afternoon biking around the town, and my nights sipping bubbly the hubs....

it was heaven!!

On one of those afternoon biking tours I came across an extensive collection of Mara Hoffman and LemLem at a cute little boutique.  If you are looking for some additions to your spring/summer wardrobe, look no further!!

A Night in Paris

Typically I am not a huge fan of a "themed night."  I like to get all fancy and go out with the hubs, but I despise running around town looking for any type of costume for a party.  I have one of those theme party events this Saturday, but I am willing to make an exception because the theme is "A Night in Paris."

I am wearing your basic LBD with a little feather hem

a beret

and lots and lots of pearl necklaces...

this of course would be THE perfect necklace....

 but sadly it is no where in my closet!!

Emmy Season

The Emmys are never as glamourous as the Oscars, but last night some girls definitely hit home runs.

Cat Deeley...

January Jones...

Morena Baccarin...

Canary yellow seemed to be the color of the night,

Claire Danes...

Julie Bowen...

and Julianne Moore...

but the most feroish of all....

Portia De Rossi

She took a risk with her pant suit and I think she looks amazing!!

Mental note to self, go buy a pant suit today!!

Label Love

The last couple of weeks, while searching for a dress to wear to our auction, I came across a new label, Aidan Mattox. I went to Nordstroms, Saks, and Neimans and every dress I loved was an Aidan Mattox...I love a dress with a lot of sparkle and glitz, plenty of that from Aidan..
you can never go wrong with the one shoulder, satin, greek goddess dress...
This was one of my final options, a flapper dress with amazing pearl beading, it just didn't seem to fit me properly on the top. I must of tried it on 10 times and I just didn't love it on me. I hate when you fall in love with a dress on a hanger, then you try it on and it is just not right!!
There are also plenty of full length dresses to choose from as well...

just ask bachlorette Ali, she loves Aidan Mattox too!!

This is my new "go to" label next time I have a fancy event!!

Parlez-vous francais?

The beautiful Sheridan French is a model/fashion designer/sassy momma/woman extraordinaire. I first saw her line a couple months ago and I was instantly smitten!!
I am in love with these dresses, just perfect for a warm summer day!!


In addition to her clothing line, I was thrilled when Your Style Scout clued me into Sheridan's fabulous blog. I think I have my new go-to dresses for the summer!!
