2013 Already?

My Truths About New Years:

1. Towards the end of every December I say the same thing, "where has the year gone" or "I can't believe a new year has come so fast.
2. It will take me 2-3 months to write 2013 instead of 2012.
3. I will make some reference to something along the lines of "wow it's 2013" about 30 times in January. If you did the math, yes that's every day of the month except for one. 
4. I never make new year resolutions. 
5. I never make plans for New Year's Eve until about 1 week prior. 
 6. Like every woman I look forward to all of the sales. 

   Originally our plans included driving to Switzerland for a few days. After researching we decided against it because they will probably have snow and we'd have to drive through many mountain roads. So since it is our last new years in Italy we decided to stay local. We are going to one of my favorite restaurants for a special 7 course dinner complete with gifts and fireworks at midnight. Needless to say, I am stoked and counting down the days. 

   Everyone knows that New Year's Eve is the time to dress up and get dolled up. I have a white tulle dress with a touch of gold, that has been hanging in my closet (w/ tags) for almost a year. Instead of buying something new I just went shopping in my closet, which turned out to be a great idea. Just because I already have an outfit doesn't mean I can't obsess and dream and wish upon a star to wear one of these lovely high fashion dresses.

  1. Really nice dresses. I love Aqua by Aqua dresses and I have good few of them. The beige one with gold is just amazing.

Gracelynn Rose Designs & GIVEAWAY

Today I'm very excited to introduce everyone to Gracelynn Rose Designs! The owner, Stephanie, is one of my closest and dearest friends that I consider more of a sister. The first time we met it was instant friendship, now we've known each other for 5 years. Even though we're currently thousands of miles apart it's as if we never left. Swirly Pink Black Lampwork Swarovski Crystal Bracelet Stephanie has been designing her own jewelry since 2001 and selling it to customers along with a few stores. Each design is her own, delicately handcrafted, and unique. She did an entire jewelry line based on Twilight (which of course I loved every piece) that was so beautiful AND she sold a line of pearl & crystal bracelets to David's Bridal and those were stunning. For my birthday Stephanie sent me a pair of earrings in the mail and I fell in love with them and wear them every chance I get. Might I add that they are 1 of a kind, not another pair like them...   It...

Short on Inspiration?

HOLY COW! There is so much inspiration out there for denim shorts! Usually I'm more of a skirt/dress person in the spring and summer, but I'm just really feeling all the cool shorts out there and wanna be a part of it all. I wish you could all come to my house and have a big ole' DIY party, sip on mojitos, laugh, and have a good time. Instead it looks like the hubby is gonna be helping me out because I can't wait any longer to do this. Originally I was going to wait on this post until after I finished making the shorts, but I just couldn't wait. I mean can you tell how excited I am about this?  Okay, so I can't tell you ALL the ideas that are running around in my mind that I'm sure is run by mignons , then there would be no element of surprise. But here are a few... My two faves are the purple & green dyed and the flag shorts! Tonight I am going to the Airmen's Attic to scout around for good denim that I can turn around and destroy. The Airme...
