Impromptu trip to SD

 So last Thursday my girlfriend Megan and I made the last minute decision to head out to San Diego for the weekend. Sort of a pre-Valentine girls trip! :) It was a quick one but lots of fun! I miss the ocean already!

The beautiful Sunday morning sky in PB
Fro Yo run with friends

Sat we enjoyed a little roof top BBQ

Waking up to this view would never get old
Meg and I

*Happy Valentine's Day to you all! This year I'm grateful for wonderful girlfriends!

Sending some love...






unknown


When it comes to cards, I love searching for the perfect one. The one with just the right words, for just the right person. I'd much rather receive a thoughtful card over a gift any day. So with Valentine's Day just around the corner, here are a few sweet and quirky card ideas for that special someone.

Spring trend...Anklets?

Cuffs

Simple gold bands seen at Paris Fashion week

Love Anklet

Red Threads
 
Even the boys are doin' it.
 So as the temps (and hemlines) start to rise you may notice the anklet making it's reappearance. They've been spotted on celebs, your favorite style bloggers and even men are giving it their spin. And I gotta say, I am all in favor of this trend! You can go bold like Krystal in her cuffs or keep it dainty like the sweet "love" anklet from Shopbop. Either way, make sure your showin' your feet some love this spring!
What's your take, are anklets a go...or a no?

A dose of Spring...

Spring Inspo

Just a lil' dose of spring inspiration to get me through these last few weeks of our Arizona "winter". Even though its been a mild one, I'm looking forward to warm(er) weather and lots of pastels! I'm currently on the hunt for the perfect pair of yellow skinnies. What trend are you looking forward to trying this spring?

Things I'm loving lately...

 Lunch dates with this lil' man.
 Birthday celebration's... involving fancy snowboarding themed cakes!
Public transport...putting in a twenty and getting change in the form of 18 gold dollar coins! Don't worry those came in handy when she was at the Verizon store and realized she left her wallet at home..
Spending a Monday with these two exploring downtown PHX...
 Arrogant Butcher...and any drink involving cucumbers!
 CityScape during the holidays.
 Outdoor ice skating
 Rental skates...don't be jealous!
 Second row seats...
          Record breaking games...
Supercross...it won me over...
and any excuse to dress for the occasion...moto boots!

A dose of menswear..

Today I'm dedicating a post to the fella's. It may be just me, but I'm slightly obsessed with menswear. There is just something about a well-dressed man that is so attractive. Whether your a guy who prefers comfort and a clean pair of J's or a three piece suit, when it's done right and you carry yourself well, it's all equally appealing to me. I love that men seem to be stepping up their game lately and I say, it's about time! So in addition to my never ending list of female blogger's I follow, men's style blogs have been thrown into the mix. It doesn't help that they are all quite handsome and seriously funny. Take a look and let me know what you think. Are you a fan of menswear?  



Offering up lots of style with a lil relationship advice here and there...go ahead and hit him with a question, the answer is sure to be entertaining.


Giving you the low down on what to buy and wear to buy it.


A mix of menswear, food and cocktails..I'd say that makes for a good combo.

With a title like "America's Best Dressed Real Man", this guy's gotta know his stuff.

Happy 2012...


Testing my luck in 2012

the New Year's "photo booth"

Some of the ladies

My fab friend Daniela

Toasting the night away!

Cheers to 2012!!

Just a lil peak at some photo's from NYE! The party I helped host was a "casino" night and we had several poker and blackjack tables set up throughout the house. It was a big hit and tons of fun! I personally think celebrating at home with family and friends is the way to go for NYE. No fighting crowds, high ticket/drink prices, hailing cabs etc. Although, the clean up the next morning is never fun. :/ How did you all ring in the new year?
