Beauty Can Cure

Skirt: Alexander McQueen
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
Knuckle Ring (on right hand): F21
Bangles: Bebe
Necklace: Christie Martin


Tonight was Artistic Academy's Beauty Can Cure benefit. It was wonderful. All the girls and guys did a fabulous job putting it together and pulling it off. The amount of time and dedication put forth by these students to create a show for a great cause while also being in the midst of studying and taking the test that will define their career is inspiring to say the least.

This year, the show was set up in different themes: music, movies, pop culture, around the world, under the sea (to name a few). It was sort of like a glam Halloween party! All fashions were done up with flawless make up, and creative hair styles that are just not as good in pictures as they were in person, but I tried to still capture the moment. Hope you enjoy!















My Sister!!




Lil Wayne was nice enough to stop for a picture.





Yes, that is "Tracy" from Jerseylicious. Never watched it? Well you are not alone. It is another Jersey-based "REALITY" TV show. They decided to tape the benefit... I won't hate, because to each his own. But I will say that the term "Reality" should be used very, very, VERY loosely when referring to the genre of this show ;) YOU'RE SUSPECT!


Onto other news... I will leave you with something much cuter. An adorable Jordan burrito. Have a great weekend!

Letters On My Neck (In Old English)

The weather today is back to being cold, and feeling more Fall than Spring. I had to break out my Fall coat and wear a long sleeve... sigh.

Days like today call for a nice piece of jewelry to accessorize a blah outfit (and a blah mood!!)



This silver necklace was a gift from my fiance a few years ago, designed by Christie Martin. If you aren't familiar with her jewelry, you can browse her pieces here. I'm a huge fan of the Old English style line she has out. I love how the pieces are edgy and more interesting than just your regular initial necklace.




Christie Martin designs are a favorite among celebrities, (Such as Carmen Electra in her Old English gold necklaces!) and her styles adorned Christina Aguilera for a past Maxim spread. I love the cross necklace and cuff!









The next piece I neeeeeed to have from her line is The Old English Signet Ring. I'm in love with it! (I don't think it helps much that the display for the ring is the exact one I want... right down to the letter!!) The stars on the side of the ring are just a little detail that makes her jewelry so unique and fun!
