Fancy this {pink delectables}


Ooohhh laa laaa!! Don't you just want to get your girlfriends together and do girlie things when you see this picture?  It reminds me of the fabulous scene in the movie Marie Antoinette where the girls get together, indulge in decadent desserts, and try on stacks of princess-perfect shoes.  So this post is all about girlie delectable fantasies that can be created into reality during your next "girls only" social event.  Enjoy!!

SATC obsessions


Okay I am a little late with this post!  I actually had completely forgotten about it in my "drafts."  I went to Sex and the City 2 on opening night with some girlfriends.  We got all dolled up, arrived in style, and toasted with our cocktail varieties, mine was "The Carrie" ofcourse.  As expected I quickly fell madly deeply in love with the movie.  Since I could go on and on about all that I loved in the movie, I have decided to list my top "SATC obsessions."  Have you seen SATC2 yet? What are your obsessions? What inspires your fashion?

Making a statement{fashionably speaking}

Whether it is putting together an outfit or decorating, 'statement' pieces really portray personality and uniqueness.  I have found that to find your own personal 'statement' piece or style, it really has to be something that inspires or calls to you.  The great thing about it is inspiration can come from anything and everything!  Here are some things that have recently inspired me(and hopefully my wardrobe).  What are some of your favorite 'statement' pieces?
