Weekend Glamour
September 16th, 2011

Imagine dancing the night away in these glamorous Louboutins. These show stopping heels would perfectly match almost any outfit. My Friday wish list would include both of these, the Alice & Olivia dress below is dreamy and beyond perfection.


Valentino Heels


Another great week to live in Arizona. Mornings are resembling fall or at least OUR version of fall. My favorite time of year! Coffee on the patio every morning watching the sun rise over the golf course is my new daily routine.
Hope you’ve had a lovely week and your weekend is even better!

Shoes I’m Obsessing Over For Fall!
August 30th, 2011




I saw these at Nordstrom’s the other day and fell in love. Miu Miu heels.
I’ve been so busy decorating lately that shopping has fallen by the wayside. Stopped in Nordstrom’s for a new pair of sunglasses and ended up in the shoe department! Surprise!!!
Fall can’t come soon enough, I am soooo over this heat. Arizona’s weather has been brutal this year and my sweaters are calling my name. Every September I go through and purge my closet. This year I am especially looking forward to it. As the fall trends have me ready to start loading up on some new and improved fashions.
What trends are you looking to the most this fall?
Happy Tuesday Luvs

My Two Favorite Things This Week
June 11th, 2011


Victoria’s Secret is seriously one of my favorite places to shop online. Always the 80′s ROCKER Chic at heart, so I will never conform to the norm!
Edgy, sexy, and feminine are what I tend to lean towards. With that being said, ummm I am over 40, sooooo I have to be cognoscente of that when selecting outfits. And that is why I love VS. Not only can you find fun and flirty, but you can actually find garments with just enough cover-up to be appropriate!
The pants above are so comfortable to lounge in, and when I’m poolside it gives me a great option to wear with my bathing suit top. I paired it with the t-shirt {second pic}, to complete the flowy & billowy look. It works!
What are your choices for summer wear, where is your favorite place to find lounging attire?
Hope your week was FAB-ulous!

It’s A Gold-rush Tuesday

After a long weekend, some of us take more time to get back into the routine of life. Lovely dinners, with champagne kisses close off this Memorial Day. And now it’s Tuesday, back to reality.
“Make new friends but keep the old ones; one is silver and the other’s gold”
Hope your Tuesday is FAB!
