All Hallows Eve

Well, you saw my couture pumpkin... and this Halloween, true to form, we hosted a Halloween soiree at my house. We are VERY big on Halloween!! Here are some out takes from the party.


Jello mold shaped as a brain!


Ghost dessert (I made this one with a mohawk)




I dressed as Flower the Skunk


My Father, Sister and I


My Fiance, Jordan and I

(Side note.. my fiance never dresses up. It was so cute that he and Jordan surprised me and dressed as the same thing!!)


Naturally, Jordan was the life of the party. My little convict party animal!!




How was your Halloween? This weekend we will be celebrating my birthday, which is next Thursday.. YIKES!!

Very Truly Yours, Always

I uncovered these GEMS tucked away in my shoe closet. Aren't they fun? I have been doing a little packing up... (dis) organizing, navigating, collecting, weeding out through things. Then putting it all back where it was before. Fall is my favorite season but it really came too quickly this year.



My meatball! And his megaphone... GO TEAM!!

ps... I'd also like to say thank you to The Hottest Heels for featuring me on a blog post! You can check me out here.

The Perfect Pair

I have been searching for the ideal pair of Jackie O inspired round-framed sunglasses, and finally I have closed my search!





Sunglasses by Valentino



Besides the amazing price I got for these, the Swarovski crystal sides sold me. I also really love the rose tinted lenses, unexpected and more fun than basic black or tan. Mission accomplished. So what do you think? I'm definitely an Aviator girl, so the over sized round frames will be a nice new change.



I thought this pic of Jordan I took was so funny!! He was enjoying the air conditioning in my car. It has been a HOT past few days.

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!

Sunday Funday

Today was a lazy and beautiful Sunday. We had great weather all weekend! I spent my day with Jordan and my fiance just gardening and hanging out at the house.








This is my FAVORITE comfy outfit. The sweatshirt is super old, probably from middle school. I altered it to make it off the shoulder, (like I did here also) and voila! It added instant chic to an otherwise boring sweatshirt!





My little man! He's too funny...






The owl pendant necklace is new. I ordered it, thinking the owl was much smaller. I actually like that its bigger because the detail on it shows much more. I have been going crazy looking for a vintage turquoise ring. I found this one at an old lady's garage sale for 25 cents! Its really heavy and sturdy, a real vintage costume jewelry piece. I have seen ones very similar to this one, almost identical in H&M and Forever 21 (never in my size... boo). That just proves that you should never throw anything away. It's going to be back in style one day so hang onto it! Garage sales are the best for finding cool things. I'm so happy the good weather is coming so I can go to more and find some hidden treasure!
