In Hot Pursuit: Bar Cart


I want a bar cart and I have been searching and searching for the perfect one. Here are the obstacles that have been standing in the way of purchase so far:
1. Bar carts are really expensive. Like, wow, really pricey.
2. I have only come across gold options. My living room is mostly decdorated in silver accessories.

How do we feel about mixing metals? I'm not really sure I love that idea. Thoughts?
 3.  I also am not a antique hunter. I do not have the patience and I prefer a more modern look.
So here's to hoping I can find something reasonable and silver. Here are a few pictures of carts that I love!

Cheers to 2013!


I'm back! The last few weeks have been BUSY so please pardon the lack of posting. However, I'm back with a few fashionable images to start this fabulous new year. All of these images are such inspiration for new outfits that include a great pair of pants, white, black, and layers.

My resolutions for this year include getting back to my very healthy ways, decorating the apartment, and working my tail off. Cheers to 2013!

Emerald Green


Emerald is apparently THE color for 2013 and I am definitely OK with this decision. Good job Pantone! Here are a few emerald pics to make you green with envy!

Personal Style: Foxy Lady


So I came across this fox sweater at Old Navy and was quickly reminded of a picture of the one and only Taylor Swift wearing a similar sweater not so long ago. Taylor's sweater I'm sure is designer and very expensive. My fox sweater was on sale for $15 at Old Navy and that's about as much as I was wiling to shell out for a sweater with a fox on it. Don't get me wrong I really like it for a casual day at work paired with sparkly flats (not pictured). Sorry Tay, I win this one.

Personal Style: Holiday Party


Fur Vest: Vince Camuto (old), Sweater: Gap, Skinnies: Gap (old), Clutch: Mossimo, Heels: Mossimo

One of the most fun families I know hosted a fabulous holiday party over the weekend and this is what I wore. It was such a blast and so nice that pants were appropriate. I went with all black because I wanted my fun heels to pop. I added the fur vest, well, just because I love fur! My heels and clutch are both from Target and you would never know. In fact I had to tell people over and over again that my heels were from Target and $30. I would scoop up a pair of these cap toe cuties if I were you! How fun  is this tasseled clutch? Such an easy and party perfect outfit!

Profile: The Rolling Stones


The Hubs and I recently watched  Crossfire Hurricane.  A new documentary on The Rolling Stones in honor of their 50th anniversary. It was one of the best things I've ever watched and so incredibly badass. Needless to say we are still talking about it two weeks later. It's truly amazing the influence they had then and continue to have now. Not just with their music, but with everything from how people dressed and wore their hair. Their personal style is off the charts. I'm most definitely not a music buff, just someone who loves The Rolling Stones and all things 60s and 70s. I would seriously do just about anything to go to one of the reunion concerts!

One of my favorite scenes in the film was back stage at MSG where Andy Warhol and Jimmy Hendrix were hanging out with them before their show. It just doesn't get much cooler than that. If you don't mind sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll you should check it out!
