Shoes for SALE

Because I had such success with my last item that I put up for sale (thanks Pink Champagne) I wanted to offer you all another item! These cute flip flops from the glorious, J. Crew!




These are a size 8 but fit me very well and I'm a stead fast 7.5 (I think their flip-flops only come in whole sizes). They have only been worn a handful of times (2-3) and are super cute for summer! Sadly, I just need to make room in my tiny apartment sized closet :(. Sorry to say it girls but Fall is going to be here before we know it and my sweaters (that my parents have so graciously stowed away for me in their home) will have to come back out again and that means GOODBYE any space I have ANYWHERE! I'm asking $5.00 for the shoes and again, $5.00 for shipping (all through Paypal). Let me know if you are interested or need any other photos! I will keep listing things as time goes on... Hopefully I will see the floor of my closet soon :)

P.S. All proceeds from these sales are going to the "help organize my closet fund." ;) aka all proceeds will go to the container store!

Wonderful Movie!



Just watched this
The sequel to Father of the Bride! If you love the 90's versions of Father of the Bride I & II you must see the originals. They are wonderful :) Though I love the re-makes, I'm a bit partial to the originals... Elizabeth Taylor is just gorgeous in the film and Spencer Tracy is hilarious. I hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing evening!

Lilly SALE SOLD


I just wanted to let you all know that I'm lowering the price on the BRAND NEW Lilly capris (size 0) that I have for sale. Now, for 15.00 you can have an adorable pair of Lilly capris (5.00 shipping). As I said before that are brand new with tags. The only reason I'm even selling them is that they are a tad too small for me :( I would love to see them go to a happy Lilly loving home :) Let me know if you are interested, otherwise I will try my luck on ebay. I just wanted to give you all first dibs. If anyone wants more pictures of the capris let me know!

Anniversary Weekend!

I'm so excited to celebrate our first anniversary this weekend, how time flies! It feels like just yesterday we were getting married and now, an entire year has passed. To celebrate, hubby and I are going to the Cape Cod room at the Drake Hotel for dinner Saturday night.

Then we are going to drink this and eat a little replica of our wedding cake that the baker was so kind enough to give us on our first anniversary!

To top it all off, on Sunday, we are going to have a fabulous brunch at the Deer Path Inn, (in the room where we held our reception)!

New Obsession...


I have a somewhat new obessseion to share with you all...It is the tv show, MAD MEN! Though I may be a little late jumping on this bandwagon, I'm obsessed! I love the Drapers'! Yes their relationship seems a bit strained to say the least but the characters are fascinating. The story line is not the only thing that keeps me clicking to the next episode on the On demand screen, it is the clothes! Oh the early 60's! I sometimes wish that full skirted dresses, matching heals and jewelry were still all the rage. The women seem to be perfectly polished and poised all of the time. Though, for me that would be difficult to achieve on a daily basis, (hey my nail polish always seem to have chips in it not matter how many times a week I polish them) it would be nice if it were more "common place," once again. As strange as it seems I also wish that men still wore hats, how dapper! Due to this new obsession I am on the hunt for a sweater clip also known as a sweater guard. I think they are fabulously cute and hey if I'm the only one wearing them these days I simply don't care :)

Last Nights True Blood



Did anyone watch True Blood last night?!? Hubby and I love the show...but we both thought that is wasn't as exciting of an episode as we thought/hoped it would be. Hopefully it will get more exciting as the season continues! Let me know your thoughts I would love to hear them :) Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!

My Closet Looks Lovely


I LOVE huggable hangers! They are amazing! I decided to go with the black (after a long debate between that and the ivory/cream color). I figured it was super neutral, classic and looks good with about anything in my closet! I purchased some of these hangers at Target and some others at The Container Store, which is fabulous! The benfit of getting some there is that you can find tons of coupon codes online and if you have a Discover card you get 5% back if you go through their site while shopping online. So all in all I received 20% back and another 5% on top of that. I also decided to pick-up my order at the store which saved me shipping costs :) Now my closet looks lovely! I still need to get a few more, but I will do that gradually since this has definitely been an investment rather than a small 20 dollar purchase. I figure I will have these for years to come and since clothes themselves are sooo expensive why not treat them well. I hope all of you try out these hangers, they have double my closet space and made it look amazing! I also picked up some of the clear shoe boxes from The Container Store too. Again, AMAZING I can see the shoes without having to get them down from my closet shelf, plus it makes everything looks so "professional. The best part is they are only around 1.50 apiece! So far it has been a productive weekend!

THE Huggable Hanger!



So, I have been coveting huggable hangers for a while now! I love how they instantly transform a closet! I currently have a massive amount of the plastic white hangers and I hate how my clothes are constantly slipping off and falling to the floor. My question for all of you lovely ladies out there is do they really work? Are they really worth the 1/per hanger price tag (unless on sale)? The four colors I like best are; ivory, black, grey and light pink. I like the neutral factor of the ivory and black (I'm really leaning towards black), but I wonder if the black will be too "harsh" looking? Please let me know if you use these hangers and if so what color is hanging in your closet :)
