Fashion Files: Kate Winslet at the Emmy Awards
2 Dec
Kate Winslet looks stunning in red wearing a Resort 2012, v-neck cap sleeve gown by Elie Saab at the 2o11 Emmy awards! She humbly accepted the award for “Mildred Pierce” and now can add it to her other awards, She is a proud holder of an Oscar, a Grammy, and now an Emmy. Next up for Kate?….. the Tony Award?! I hope so, she definitely deserves it. I mean who doesn’t love Kate? I fell in love with her the moment i saw Titanic. Its one of those movies you can watch over and over and over again. ( and maybe even cry each time ). Now, many years after the release of Titanic shes still so beautiful and is gracefully ( and slowly ) aging. I hope time treats me as well as it has her!
Great Job Winslet! Cant wait to see whats in-store for you next!

My Holiday Gift Guide
30 Nov
Buying gifts for your loved ones during the holiday can be a stressful and grueling task. So i figured i would post some ideas, and some sites that i trust for my holiday shopping!
- http://www.thingsremembered.com , is a great place to buy a gift and get it personalized how ever you want. They can engrave almost anything and the results are always amazing! I’ve purchased a “dog tag” from there and had it engraved for my boyfriend. I also purchased a metal guitar pick from a different source and brought it in to have it engraved, its always beautifully done and if you are a walk-in you can pick it up in less than 24 hours. Online orders depend on shipping terms.
- http://www.redenvelope.com/ , Is another site where you can personalize whatever you buy, but they also have a larger selection of things to chose, from apparel and accessories, to home decor and toys, anything you want, they have.
- http://www.bluefly.com/ , For those gift givers that are Fashion Obsessed visit bluefly, they have everything you need to make sure your gifts are on-trend and totally FAB without breaking the bank!
- http://www.uncommongoods.com/ , is a place to buy gifts for that person who has literally everything, or are hard to buy for! Quirky, cute gifts for that person in your life who already seems to own everything. Its easy and convenient!
