I’m in love with these ballet flats from J. Crew. With it’s very lady like, yet edgy, gold chain T-strap. it’s the ideal dainty running around shoe, when heels just won’t do, but you still want to look chic. Also available in black ~ $198 at J. Crew.
I had to post this shot of Linda Rodin from the J. Crew 2012 fall campaign, who is still fierce at 63 years old! ~ Stylist turned beauty guru, still modeling, running a successful skin care line for mature women, among other things. I love this quote from her “You can’t chase youth. You’ll just look older with a face lift.” How true!
This is going to be an extremely busy week, so my posts might be sparse; but I’ll try to send out a few short posts to keep you smiling. Look out for some great images from New York Fashion week, courtesy of my friends over at Medina=Citi {yes the equal sign is deliberate}.
Do wonderful things with the rest of the week!

Happy Wednesday Dahhlings! We’re half way there, speeding towards the weekend; so to help you along, I’m sending some cheerful colour into your life.
I Found this gorgeous shot on Pinterest and had to post it for you. I felt the colours were amazing with her exotic almond shaped eyes, and decided that all this sparkle, was just the thing to perk you up, and help you through the next 2 days. WE’RE NEARLY THERE!
I need your help; can anyone think of another term for Wednesday instead of “hump day“? I really dislike that term! Isn’t there something more fun and a little more chic we could use?

Well Dahhlings, another Monday is upon us. I hope you enjoyed your weekend and also Fashion Night Out on Thursday. I saw no reason to do a major blog post on FNO as every “fashion” blog in the blogosphere was writing about it.
For those of you who attending New York Fashion Week, I know it’s as fabulous as all those photos I’ve been seeing on Instagram and Tumblr. I hope to attend Fashion Week in London or New York with my sister in either Febuary or September 2013 {Watch this space!}
There are some absolutely gorgeous peices for next S/S 2013, I already can’t wait; though we haven’t even gotten thru winter 2012 yet! I’ll feature my favourites over the next few months, to cheer you up when the weather gets gloomy.
If you’re still looking for Fashion Week info for 2012 as well as dates for 2013 click here
I want to wish all of you an amazing week; I’ll leave you with a few little tidbits to ponder until next time…
Remember…
And always…

Happy Labor Day to you Dahhlings! I hope you are enjoying your much deserved day off. For most of us, this is the last holiday until Thanksgiving {not many get Columbus or Veterans Day, unless you work for the Government}, so enjoy it!
Well as you can see from above, this is my 200th post and I’m quite proud of myself. Blogging has been fantastic for me and to me; therefore, I’ve decided to dedicate this post to say Thank You! Blogging has allowed me to meet the most wonderful people on WordPress and other sites such as Twitter, BlogTrends and Instagram, to name a few. I’ve been embraced by bloggers of all genres, large and small, and I appreciate it.
The blogging community as a whole, is like one big creative family constantly supporting each other; I’m happy to be a part of it. So once again, I’d love to thank you all for following and reading my posts, and I look forward to writing another 200, plus many more in the coming future.
This would be a cool bed to watch all the marathon TV shows, which are being shown today ~ I’m an NCIS fan myself!

I waited for 48 hours and she finally arrived! Yes my Canon EOS Rebel T3i camera arrived yesterday, and I am beyond Ecstatic. And yes, I’ve decided my camera is a girl!
I’ve been wanting a grown up camera for a while now; there was only so much my trusty iPhone 4 camera could do {even with the fantastic editing apps, which I’ll continue to use}. I also had a Olympus digital camera, my sister gifted to me years ago, which also did the trick; but it really was time to start playing with the big girls and boys (or at least in the sandbox with the other newbies).
After reviewing this baby to death, comparison shopping, and reading everything I possibly could about this camera, I finally made the leap on Tuesday; and now it’s here. 🙂
Now if I only knew how to use it!
Have a fantastic weekend Dahhlings, you know what I’ll be doing.

I was a little hesitant to post this image as I have no idea who designed this stunning creation of a dress. My sister always advises me, to try to post designer information whenever possible. If anyone knows who the designer is, please let me know.
The fit; the beading, the swirl of the train, with its Pucciesque print {could it be Pucci?} is in a word… Gorgeous! The print reminds me of the beautiful latte art some baristas are able to create with steaming milk; a skill in itself, which can take years to master.
For me it truly is, Wednesday with a swirl.
Happy Wednesday Dahhlings!

Well beautiful people, it’s Monday again, I hope you had a wonderful and productive weekend. Mine was pretty low-key; getting over a slight cold, and pretty much getting myself in order.
It’s a new week and time to make some things happen. I’m putting my best 4″ wedged heels forward. What are you going to make happen this week? Remember, there is no time like the present.
Whatever you’ve been putting off, try to put it in motion, TODAY!
Aim High!!
Have yourselves an amazing and fabulous Monday!

Hello Dahhlings… After battling a slight cold, I’m back. Today I’m relaxing with my must read material, August’s Harper’s Bazaar (yes I’m very behind on this one) and Vogue’s 916 page September issue {it’ weighs a ton}. To help me through this strenuous task, I’m sipping on a watermelon mojito.
I discovered this delicious recipe last week via fellow blogger at Keep Calm and Eat On {read post here}. My mojito has a lot more mint in it, because that’s my taste. Visit Keep Calm’s blog to see the gorgeous photos she posted and to get the mojito receipe {read her blog while you’re there}, you’ll be glad you did.
I’m now anxiously awaiting the arrival of my Harper’s Bazaar and Elle magazine’s huge September issues, which should be forced into my mailbox soon.
BTW ~ I’m loving that Dolce & Gabbana dress (2nd row, left).

Click on image to see the beauty of this photo.
This is how I’m spending today. No this is not my bedroom (oh how I wish!), but hopefully you get the idea. I just found this image on Domino Mag online (watch out for a future post on the now defunct Domino Magazine). I’m fighting off a potential cold, therefore, I’m not in a blogging mood today. So, as a compromise, I thought I’d post this peaceful visual for you, it does makes me feel a little better.
Happy Thursday Dahhlings!
