Hot Pink Stone

Valentino Resort dress, Ferragamo heels

Take a cue from Emma Stone: when you find a colour that works - make it work overtime! Love Emma in hot pink. She's cute and punky in an 80s kind of way. I really think she should be made an honorary member of The Breakfast Club.  Where's Molly when you need her!  Is it possible to trademark a colour?  What would yours be?

Making it Gold


Can I just say - spray painting a pumpkin gold is incredibly satisfying. In fact, I think I've found my greater purpose in life: to make things gold.  Instant chic in a can!  I love the way my little Fall craft project turned out.  And it couldn't have been easier - gold spray paint, acrylic paint applied with a sponge brush, and a dash of glitter.  Love how the little pumpkins look like geraniums...  Happy Fall everyone!

Cameo Love


I adore these earrings I picked up on a recent trip to Vancouver.  Since then, I've been spotting all things cameo and lusting hardcore!

Fun with Gucci

Vintage Gucci Bangle Bezel Watch v. 11/12.2

Update - Sept. 11/12
(...my mom just informed me she engraved the watch herself years later, with an engraver she borrowed from work. The best part about THIS is she screwed up the date of her own anniversary - this from a woman who has the random talent of remembering the date of anyone's birth, death, anniversary or special event - family, distant cousin, celebrity or otherwise.  Her OWN anniversary!  Her 20th wedding anniversary was actually June 1, 1994.  God I love that woman!)

I have my mom to thank for giving me her vintage Gucci watch with interchangeable bezels.  And the best part about it?  I just noticed it's engraved - a gift from Dad to commemorate their 20th wedding anniversary.  Love!
