Happy Fourth of July!







Happy Fourth of July!

I hope you and your loved ones have a safe & happy holiday!

In the midst of your celebrating, think of those who sacrifice their lives for our freedom - that freedom is not something we should ever take for granted.


God Bless America!

Friday's Five



My five favorites this week...


 
#1 - I love this post from The Everygirl, "Fashion Essentials for The Everygirl" (even though I am lacking a few of their suggested items...I mean, there really is no need for a cold-weather coat when the temperature in South Florida is always HOT!)

#2 - This video cover of the new hit "Call Me Maybe" is brought to you by Rebecca Minkoff. She's playing karaoke with model Hilary Rhoda & Leandra Medine (aka The Man Repeller). I have been playing it non-stop!





#4 - These "scrapbook nails" by Birchbox are super cute!



#3 - Holy cuteness. Jessica Simpson's baby girl Maxwell is too cute for words!




#5 - Who wants to make this colored layer cake for me??
 P.S. - I Made This... makes it look pretty easy!

Recent Looks



I do not post my own outfit photos the way most bloggers do. I don't have someone to follow me around while I prance about in my outfit. I don't have a fancy camera either. My pics are taken with my iPhone and I am the photographer. Oh well. I guess I also feel shy about posting my outfits because I think "who really cares?" but I know how much I love seeing bloggers post outfit pictures, so what's the big deal? Stupid insecurities!

Whatevs. Here are some of my most recent outfits.
