78 Days to Go: Friday Giveaway!
This week was filled with so much love…thank you all for the beautiful comments about the book – I’m just over the moon!
In celebration, I thought this was the perfect little giveaway – a striped mirrored compact with my favorite French words – JE T’ADORE – and a pair of vintage clip on earrings. I love the red, black, white combo!!
Win Me!
Plus, the winner will get to see an “I adore you” reminder each time they use the compact, which is totally true.
J'Adore Mirror!
OK, so what do you adore? Who gets the “je t’adore” compact in your life? I’m a little partial to my new baby cousin, Alara, whose cheeks, just by looking at them, can bring a smile to your face! She’s delicious and adore is the perfect word to describe her.
Leave a comment below and a winner will randomly get chosen next week! I’m a bit behind with giveaways, but winners will finally be announced this weekend from the past two weeks goodies, so there’s still time to sign up!!
Happy Friday!!

Anchor Party
Also, there’s nothing like getting into the full on red, white, and blue spirit with some painted nails!! I took my polish assortment and began to get artsy!
Nail Polish Time!
I started with a red base (Zoya Carmen) on all the nails…
Starting with some red...
…then got to some design making. I added a white (LA Colors)/white iridescent glitter (Wet n’ Wild) firework to the thumbs using a toothpick…
Baby you're a firework!!!
…a navy (NYC Color – Skin Tight Denim Cream) heart to the ring finger, and a multi-glitter (Wet n’Wild Party of Five) coat to the pinky nails!
Finished nails!
Action shots tomorrow!
148 Days to Go: DIY Bachelorette Veil
When I was asked to take charge on the crown/tiara front for a lovely friend of mine’s bachelorette party, I immediately said yes. I mean, there’s nothing I love more than ribbon, wire, rhinestones, and silk flowers!
This crown-veil wasn’t going to be your tradish wedding white/pearly/lace-y version either, it was going to be black, sparkly, and something straight out of a Tim Burton movie….
Supplies!!!
…literally my dream veil right now!!
165 Days to Go: $1 Remake
I swiped this up as soon as I saw the sleeves!! I had my very own kimono in my hands, plucked from a pile of old vintage tossaways for just $1. Yep, I was pretty stoked with my find!!
Day 165 - Before
I’m not going to keep it robe length – I have too many robes to begin with and this one deserves some public attention, so I’m hopping on the kimono jacket train like French Connection…
French Connection's Flutter Sky Kimono Jacket - $168
Forever 21's Silky Kimono Jacket - $13.99 (on sale from $27)
…and the always fashionable Cat Deeley (PS, can’t wait for SYTYCD!!)…
Kimono + cutoffs = summer chill out ensemble
