My First Giveaway: A Salute to the Royal Wedding

So I think I have done a good job at establishing myself as an old soul. I have mentioned that I love broaches, blazers and anything vintage. If the piece has a story then that is all I need. I love for my clothing to have character. I want you to be able to look at me and have some idea of who I am. I was recently given a a wonderful hat courtesy of Gale's Hats. So I figured I would take a few pictures for you to look at.
 With that said, I come to my next point. I am working with Gale's Hats in my first giveaway. We will be giving away one hat to one lucky winner. The rules will be simple, I swear. For more information on the actual hats that will be given away make sure you stop by Gale's Hats blog, as well.


Alright so here are the rules. 
1. You MUST follow my blog and Gale's Blog 
2. You must comment on both posts on my blog and Gale's blog about the giveaway.
3. That's it!!! Winner is chosen in two weeks.
There will be more giveaways I hope in the future but I promise to always keep it simple.

Cover Double Take

Which cover do you prefer? It is sad but I think it is almost impossible to choose but I think I prefer Naomi. The dress is from Gucci Spring/Summer 2011 collection.

My love affair with Starbucks

So I went to Starbucks today and it made me very happy, as usual. So I figured I would dedicate a post to it. I had no idea that Starbucks was offering these delicious petite treats, but in all honesty the treat made my day. Anything that is cute and sweet makes me smile. I forget what this one is called but it can described as a rocky road cake. Delicious. *BIG SMILE*


This was a nice way to wind down the editing and final that was on my plate. Be sure to treat yourself. I am going back again.
XOXO

Wow...

The shoes are really dreamy. I saw this post at Fashion Bomb Daily. But I am loving the shoes they are playful and cute. The Christian Louboutin are priced at $1,665.

Thanks to Fashion Bomb Daily I can set my eyes on a less expensive but equally dreamy version of the shoe.





Behold the Kitten from Jeffrey Campbell. Hope you like.

People at Fashion Week

Everyone looked awesome. I had such a great time. I tried to get a few pictures before my phone died. I ended up using Yaya's camera most of the night and then she snapped a few pics for me. I hope you enjoy the looks.





I was in a vintage sequenced jacket. Bebe dress, Horn necklace, Boots the name is escaping me and clutch was a present. 

Gainesvile Fashion Week 2011











It was amazing. I think I may have downplayed Gainesville in terms of fashion. The entire show was amazing. Special thanks to Brianti Downing for making it happen for me. I had a lot of fun and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. The show was at Villa East and included numerous boutiques and designers. My favorite boutique of the evening was Viscosity Vintage. One of my favorite designers for the night was Sui Generis and JAFARI & JAHAGHI.  I hope you like the pics. I had a great time.
