ok for real im back this time.

Where to begin.

We just acquired a 4 month-old yorkie into our beautiful family. His name is Louis Vuitton. Yes, I know what you all are thinking. But Louis V. has a nice ring to it.

I thought I wanted to be a dentist now I think not. But I don't really know. So I'm thinking of applying to MBA programs? Lost girl with a cause anyone?

Mom moved to Charleston. Soooo much better than Charlotte.

Jordan is still the little genius.

Pictures and lots of opinions to come soon :)
So happy to be back!!!

Best Thursday Shopping Purchase Ever!


I am now off to work for the rest of the night but I just wanted to share this with you all. Lissy and I had the best shopping Thursday ever. I bought the below dress for my birthday month? Maybe? I just thought I couldn't pass it up. It looks sooooo cute on. The perfect length for my short legs and flatters the curves in all the right ways. La Rok has done it again!

Happy Friday!

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Ladies & Gents,
I just watched Confessions of a Shopaholic and although not the best movie on the planet, it was endearing in some ways and made me chuckle at my own spending habits. I am by no means as awful with credit cards as Rebecca Bloomwood and in fact I only have one, with a spending limit on it (best idea ever, btw). Buttttttt.....I do understand the insanity of what so many women and men do in this day and age. Spend. We all love to spend. We love the satisfaction of a tag on a new item just waiting to be snipped off or the smell of new leather shoes or the gratitude of a nice passerby on the street who says she loves your NEW bag. It's the longing for satisfaction from either yourself or those around me. Personally, it's both. The most important critic is of course me and if it doesn't exude fabulosity and confidence then it wasn't worth it but it is SO nice when someone comments on your own style and admires your take on the world of consumer products. Right now, for instance, I am gushing over this DVF Keoni rainbow top that I tried on in the store in NY in February but couldn't bring myself to buy. But now, its on sale at Neimans. A girl could cry. But, I stopped myself. As much as I have dreamed about it the last two nights and keep thinking about walking back into the store to buy, I can't. I even tried it on multiple times and it was cuter on then on any lousy mannequin or hanger. :( I need to learn to save. My closet is overflowing with items I either haven't worn in ages or only wore once, and I just cleaned out my closet last weekend. Sick, I know. It would look so lovely on the hanger on the bottom shelf front and center of my hanging side but I refrain. For now. Last Call is July 15th, everyone. I know it won't be there but a girl can dream. 

Hope everyone had a lovely Wednesday evening. Architecture Digest dish to come soon. Fabulous interior design that I'm dying to share with you all!

Sex and the City

Is it so completely sad and pathetic that I am completely content watching my favorite movie, Sex and the City, with a glass of red wine? The movie makes me so happy inside. I fell in love with the series and adore Sarah Jessica Parker so tonight could not get any better. The movie makes me even more ecstatic because every time I watch it I pick out something new of theirs that I want to go out and purchase. Most of the items are big investments but I have my wish list on a sticky note on my desktop to remind me of why I'm saving my money. For example, I love the red vintage floral dress she wears here. 
Or this green floral jacket that i can't seem to find the designer for. Yes, I'm really into floral prints right now but it can't be the tacky small floral print reminiscent of the 80's....in a bad way. 
I love those black Dior shoes she's wearing too.
And let me just tell you...Mr. Zac Posen did the most beautiful job on the bridesmaids gowns for this movie. It is unreal. So beautiful. 

And this dress below that Carrie wears for Fashion Week in the movie by Dolce & Gabbana is my favorite. I will own it one day...20 years from now maybe, but someday.

And last but not least, Carries vintage frock by the late Yves Saint Laurent. Stunning and yet, flattering. And those damn Dior sandals again lol.


Must go to sleep now for work tomorrow! 
Have a wonderful Father's Day weekend :)

Good morning Tuesday!


"Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful."
~Sophia Loren


A confident woman in this day and age is the most important accessory one can possess. 
Anddddd, it is recession proof. No need to go out and purchase this. Just believing in yourself, respecting yourself, and loving you for you is so attr-active. In the coming days, I will share with you all the musings of Nina Garcia in her book, The Little Black Book of Style
The simplicity and intrigue that this book provides should be every girls best friend.
Have a wonderful Tuesday!
