the little things

yes, i got this idea from a recent passage on cupcakes and cashmere, but i liked it...so here's my spin on the little things in life that make me 
HAPPY...
*when my son says "bless you mommy."
*popsugar
popsugar.com
*candy corn
*the smell of crisp fall air

*pouring a glass of wine 

*hearing music that makes me feel like I'm in high school again 
*watching my boys together

*clean sheets ( i mean isn't that everyone's favorite)

*shopbop
shopbop.com
*watching my dog run circles around the coffee table while I vacum

*a good Will Ferrell movie, like Anchorman
*Dr. Seuss



"is it time to drink yet????"

Everyday at 3, I find myself asking someone (I dont really know who) if it's time to drink yet.  This might sound really bad, and you might think I have a problem, but I assure you...that's not the case...I am a MOM!!!! Isn't that a good enough reason to sit back and relax with a glass of vino.  And now your thinking, "she is even worse then I thought, she is a mom who wants to drink at 3."
Well, let me explain something...I have been up since 5...nuff said!!!

***so i just wanted to get this out there, and don't worry I'll wait until 5 (4:30ish)!!!

My new Fave...Trader Joe's Coastal Chardonnay
$4.99
and some yummy brie from there as well.
$3.99

Labor Day in The Hamptons, I wish!!!


IN ANOTHER LIFE...
I imagine my labor day weekend would consist of being in The Hamptons on the beach wrapped in a drapy yummy Vince cardi, a beautiful smushy cashmere scarf, etc...(see below) with a delicious glass of really expensive champagne, writing in my journal with an extra book in my AMAZING PRADA tote....with my hubby. Oh, and the kids (you ask), remember this is my "other life"...hehe!!!
No, they would be sitting in the most ravishing beach house with
"the nanny."
labor day in the hamptons

and the beach house...




"a girl can dream, can't she."

*i have to go now, my baby is screaming bloody murder...back to reality!!!

Neverwood High

Anyone who knows me knows I am fascinated with celebrities and the company they keep...particularly Nicole and her friends: Carlos Lopez (teen Vogue editor), Andy Lecompte (celebrity hair stylist), Masha Gordon (BFF since childhood/party goer), Hayden Slater (party goer), Kelly Sawyer (Model turned Mommy), Katherine Power (WWWD), Sophia Rossi (The Hills Supervising Producer), Lauren Conrad, Charlotte and Sam Ronson(Designer and DJ), Victoria and Vanessa Traina (Danielle Steel's FashionForward/Beautiful daughters), etc........
Anyway, all these people are friends, how fun!!!
Check out this video Carlos Lopez posted on his blog Neverwood High (a long time ago)...Basically it's a montage full of all my favorite celebs, fashion, travel, and lets not forget....parties!!!! 
Not only is the video amazeballs but the "the killers" rock it!

street chic

jessica alba always has that perfect street chic style...the thrown together look. i love how her outfits look so effortless but so chic at the same time. i guess being absolutely beautiful from head to toe works in her favor as well.





A few other street chic celebs are, of course, nicole.

and ashlee simpson wentz

...and the beautiful kate hudson.

*it's pretty obvious i'm into the boho chic look, huh???
