The End of 2012

The end of 2012 was a bit of a rough one for me.

Between getting the plague that would not go away, work, and having a dear friend diagnosed with breast cancer I was not much for keeping up with my blog.

I am ready for 2013 to turn everything around and focus on the fun in life.

Before I leave 2012 behind though there are a few last snapshots I have to share with you.

Love.

My favorite new Kelly Wearstler piece - her perforated quartz cuff

What I Wore - Rehearsal Dinner

Sometimes being in the wedding is great because you do not have to decide what to wear, but then you realize there are more events you have to attend, so you need even more ensembles!

The idea was business casual but fun as the rehearsal was at 3pm.

Shoes and iPhone Case - Kate Spade

Because I Love You

The infamous Carly heel by Kate Spade in size 6 and 8 on eBay.  

I have been searching for a 9 or a 91/2 since I made the foolish decision to return them almost 3 years ago.

What I fool I was.

Search for "Kate Spade sequin heel"  and they are yours.

My Wish Was Granted

Do you know which one it was?
