A Peaceful Dinner


Added a little sparkle to some napkins for my mom and I.

I am loving how they turned out.

Makeshift Library


I do not have a dedicated library yet...but maybe I can work something like this out in spare (what?) room.

Seriously, ordering books at the mart might be my most favorite thing ever.
Its an addiction.

The Future is Looking Bright


Ever since spotting these a few days ago over on Apartment #34, I have not been able to get them out of my mind!

Dsquared is obviously trying to "woo" me.

What I Wore - "Violet, You're Violet!"


I cannot seem to get up the courage to fully color block my outfits, but I am totally loving my bright shorts.

(Dorothy like looking at my morning ensembles too.)


Top - Zara
Shorts - J. Crew
Wedges - old BCBG

Tune In Tuesday - Pretty Little Liars


FYI - I am a thirteen year old girl at heart.


I started watching this because I am a child parading around everyday life as an adult. I kept watching because it is SOOO addictive-ly good.

It feels like we are in season 13 because there is so much that happens every episode. I mean you have murder, infidelity, secrets (by-the-by, secrets don't make friends), teacher - student hook-ups, and shady cops and parents.

All I can tell you is do not start watching if you cannot dedicate an hour to watch and the next 6 days to discussing it. I have sucked all of my "adult" girlfriends into it and frankly, they are so happy I did.

Enjoy!

Twins


Dorothy Mantooth and Harry Winston are twins.

Like Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

They love each other, but Dorothy likes to show it by giving Harry kisses.

Harry doesn't always want them though.

What I Wore - I'm a Stud


Being an Interior Designer is glamorous.
NOT.

What people forget is that you basically do labor.
Lugging boxes, moving furniture, and a lot of schlepping. It does not mean that you have to look like a schlepp though.

I wore this when I picked up a mirror the size of me the other day.


Shirt and Watch - J. Crew
Skirt - Haute Hippie
Sandals - Colin Stuart
Necklace - flea find
Bracelet - Juicy Couture


Skirt close-up.
Olive green and brass studs.

Big and Blingy.

Don't Forget to Party!


Tomorrow night with Nicole of Sketch42!

Tune in Tuesday - My Favorite Place


So I do not usually tune in to HGTV just to see what is on. I usually have a show I am dying to watch - Secrets From a Stylist - or I DVR shows to watch as I lull myself to sleep - House Hunters International.

Well, when we leave our casa, we leave the TV on for Miss Dorothy Mantooth so she is not lonely. Not to mention, she is a TV junkie. (Like her mother, like daughter.) She has 2 options: Disney or HGTV. She gets only these because they are the 2 channels that nothing scary will ever pop up on.

Anyways, as I left the house the other day, I turned on HGTV for Dorth and a show was starting that I had not heard of...My Favorite Place. I hit record and went out the door. When I came home I started it up to see if it was anything I would be interested in. HELLO NEW FRIEND! I scored.

Basically, the show showcases 3 designers or celebrities showing you around their "favorite place" which is either their home or a clients.

This past episode was Lela Rose, Nick Olsen, and Moby.

Here is the three story abode Lela Rose calls home in NYC.




Meanwhile, here is Moby's home *ahem* CASTLE.



Who knew?
