Spring Fashion Preview. {Salvatore Ferragamo}

The final campaign that I fell in love with was Salvatore Ferragamo's Spring '12. It's sexy, the beach as it's setting, and oozing with vibrant print and color. I adore this. And c'mon Gisele is gorgeous. Nicely done. {IMO}

So, I'm ready for Spring... are you??

Happy Thursday, loves.

Love always.

Spring Preview. {Valentino}

This line is SO different in comparison to the Mulberry line yesterday. But Valentino doesn't disappoint this season. {not that he EVER does} I love the colors in this campaign. A line composed of neutrals and red... it doesn't get much more timeless. And the Victorian influence on the shape of the dresses just adds to the story this line is creating. In addition to the the contrast between the decaying buildings and the elegant dresses... this campaign is stunning. {In my opinion}

{the front dress is my favorite. In white it would make the most elegant wedding gown.}

Tomorrow is the final installment of my favorite ad campaigns for spring. 

Have a good hump day, kittens!

Love always.

Spring Preview. {Mulberry}

I know... we have barely had any winter weather {at least here in Ohio} but guys, I'm already so very ready for Spring fashion. I think that's why I love this industry so much. It's constantly changing. There's never time to get bored. The build up to each new season is always exciting for us fashion lovers. And when I caught a glimpse of the Spring '12 lines... I fell in love. All over again.

The Mulberry Spring '12 ad campaign is adorable. I want every piece of this line. The neutrals combined with cotton candy colors; nothing quite says spring like that combination. {and I'm swooning for the wedges} I love the carefree ease. I could absolutely see myself wearing pieces like this throughout spring. {I wish it would have the pretty Mulberry logo on the tag... but alas, #brokefashiongirl} I think another element that really adds to the campaign is the over-exaggerated backdrop, it gives it a very playful vibe.

Come back tomorrow to see a preview of Valentino's Spring '12 line.

Happy Tuesday, dolls.

Love always.

Book Worm and a birthday.

I'm trying to find the motivation to read again. Do you find yourself going through phases where you read a lot then read nothing for weeks? {nope? Just me?} It's so annoying though, I have this list of books that I'm dying to read but can't find the energy to pick them up. #lazy

I need to finish Catching Fire {the second in the Hunger Games trilogy}. After I finish those I'm going to start the Hush, Hush trilogy... anyone read it? Thoughts?{I'm really getting into young adult sci-fi stuff. Yes, I'm a huge dork and a child all wrapped into one ;)}.  I also REALLYYY want to read Stephen King's Bag of Bones. I've never read any of his stuff, but this one intrigued me. And lastly I'm dying to read Nicholas Sparks new one, Best of Me. I have read every book he has ever written and never EVER been disappointed. 

What's on your reading list?

And I want to say Happy Happy Birthday to Hollie {my brothers girlfriend} I'm so glad she has became a part of our family and I have loved every minute us becoming friends. I can't wait for many more crazy, fun times together! 

Happy Wednesday, Kittens.

Love always.

Happy Birthday to you!

Today is one of dearest friends birthday {Amy...pop onto her twitter and wish her a good one!} - we met almost 4 years ago when I began working for her and her family. Who would have known that we would grow into such amazing friends..and that her family would be like a second family to me. We are together more than most {happens when you work together AND are friends outside of it!} and it's almost gotten to the point where we don't even have to speak; we just know what each other are thinking.

It's been such a fun, crazy, silly ride the past 4 years. Vacations, concerts, night outs, night ins, road tripping with the girls, you name it we've done it and loved every minute of it...

Here's a lil trip down memory lane...

p.s. these aren't in any specific order. 

I hope you have the happiest of birthday's, Love. You deserve it. Here's to this being the best year yet and lots more memories to come! 

And anyone else celebrating a birthday today {pssst, RYAN!} HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY birthday to you too!

I think this is the perfect mindset to bring in the new year. I know I want to start this year fresh, be rid of my past mistakes, learn from them, and enjoy 2012. And yes, surprising myself would be refreshing. 

I hope the same for each and every one of you. And I thank you for coming along with me on this blogging adventure and I promise to be better in the new year. {I blame the craziness of the holidays - that's much better than taking the blame myself. ;)}

Here's to a fabulous first week of 2012. 

Love always.

Say Cheese! {a little photobooth action.}

Ohhh... Thursday is here already? Seriously, time flies. {I'm aware, I say that daily.} 

We uploaded the photo booth pictures from the party on Saturday - I thought I'd share a few for your viewing pleasure. And because they're funny. {No, I have NO idea why I'm doing the kissy face in 80% of these pictures... but I'm dealing with it. ;)}

Have a rockin' day, party people!

I'm off to workout... maybe.


Love always.
