Pretty Woman Moment

2.25.2012

A life without friends would be so boring! I cannot even believe how much I've been blessed with friendship!

Today in Nashville we went shopping and tore it up!

We met up with Allie (our Twitter friend) at Tory Burch and she took our pic! She was so sweet and genuine.

On top of the shopping, I received a very special gift from Jer and it was delivered to me as we were getting ready to go out.

He bought me a new purple Balnciaga "city" bag! I had been lusting over it at the mall when we were shopping and I mentioned it to him via text and a few hours later, BAAM! It was at my hotel room. This was a true "Pretty Woman" moment! I flipped out!

It went so well with my DVF dress and nude Christian Louboutin Rolando's. It was love. Purple love.

Later in the night the girls and I changed shoes & threw on coats to go back out after dinner. It was a fun night, but I tell you what, this (see below photo) fo' SHo' did not happen!

It's Friday! Well it is for me anyway! Tomorrow I'm headed to Nashville for a long girl's weekend!

This is what I wore today to run errands: F21 top, Free People tissue T, Paige jeans, Rachel Zoe ankle boots.

I had to ponytail my hair today. This length is making me crazy, but I'm glad it's growing!

This is my look from yesterday: shift dress from Ann Taylor loft, F21 jacket, random leggings, Dolce Vita boots, and my cobalt Chanel flap.

Look forward to fun updates from my trip! Xo

Q&A Monday!

Something one should NEVER do: decide that it is perfectly appropriate to record a vlog while in bed, late at night, after a birthday party where one consumed a few glasses of wine.  Yes, I am the winner that decided that this was a good idea.  My computer was ever so helpful too, since it automatically uploaded this cinematic gem to YouTube!



Normally my computer takes forever to upload anything, so this was a bit of surprise for me this morning.  Thankfully an awesome Twitter friend gave me the heads up and let me know that my video of shame was viral! At first I was mortified, had a shame attack, but then I watched it and laughed so hard at myself! One thing that I do not do is take myself too seriously, life is too short!

I have surrendered to the vlog and I will just answer the questions in written word. I think that I may have cursed myself because Megan and I were so busy this week with work and life that we just googled “10 questions” to get ideas for this week, hence the lame questions. My punishment for lame questions was to have my shame broadcasted on YouTube!  HA! 

I promise to have better questions next week! 

What is the best advice you've ever given and received?

Best advice that I ever received was from Jer’s late Grandmother Helen. She told me “Always be kind to one another, your husband, a friend, a stranger, anyone you encounter. Always be kind.”

Type of music you like most?

This is hard to answer; it is like trying to pick my favorite child! I love all different genres of music, everything from Frank Sinatra to Stevie Nicks to Conway Twitty to Kanye West to Tiesto, this could go on and on…I like it all except for dirty rap.

Shoe size?

Before having kids my feet were a 6.5. They spread and grew with each child. I am now a 7.5 in most shoes.


Who sent the last text message you received?

My friend Steph.


If you could meet any one person (from history or currently alive), who would it be?

My late paternal grandmother Ruth. She died when my Dad was 16.


Have you ever been fired or “let go”?

NO! 


What's under your bed?

Chewed up Lady Talulah Belle toys that she hides from us!



Do you believe in love at first sight?

Yes, with friends and significant others.



What is your middle name?

Anne.  You’re shocked, I can tell.



Do you think that you are a good singer?

No.  I am tone deaf and an absolutely horrid singer.  At church I position myself between Jer and Houston (they have excellent pitch and tone) so that I can try to hear the right notes to sing!  I am a disaster!


Please let me know if you linked up by posting a link in the comments section.  I PROMISE to have better questions and answers next week.  If you have any question suggestions, please leave those in the comments section also.

OOTD'S and OOTN, Wardrobe Diary

Here are some looks that I wore this week.

My dear friend Michelle had a fantastic Birthday party last night. I wore a F21 dress, Christian Louboutin Patent Simple 100 heels and a vintage patent bag (thrift store score). You can't tell but I wore my hair straight, but with the bottom curled to flip up, 60's style.

For work I wore this classic J. CREW shift dress, sweater, and Miu Miu pumps.

I'm having an Oxford shirt moment, I'm truly obsessed. For errands I wore this J. CREW coral and white striped shirt, J Brand skinny jeans, and Kate Spade heels.

I'm excited for spring and all of the bright colors that are everywhere right now! I see myself wearing a lot of skinny jeans, bright colors, Oxford shirts, and sky high heels in the upcoming season. What trends or classic looks are you looking forward to wearing as the weather warms?
