Oddity

There’s something magnificent about this commercial for Victoria Beckham’s new line sold at Bergdorf’s. Click here to see it.

A blog about BFFs

My friend, Patrick, and his bestie, Carolyn, got to play on a fun gameshow for Myspace TV…basically the “best friends” version of The Newlywed Game. I thought it was quite adorable, so I thought I would share.

Season 02 Episode 02

Hmmmm, I wonder how well I would do with my besties. Ummm, next sleepover…you curbies, are you down?

If you liked Patrick & Carolyn’s chemistry, check out their blog, A Blog About Things. I always love reading what they’re currently getting into.

For the love of fashion

I would love to see this (she has always intrigued/scared me):

Popout

And then this, too (I’ve always loved her and secretly wanna name one of my daughters Coco):

Impromptu Dins

A lovely dinner made by your favorite besties.

We had a marvelous salad, pasta & garlic bread, wine, and even pie (now, dubbed the Unicorn Pie…it’s magically delicious). We are really meant to be the next Golden Girls in 55 years.

Justin Bieber

Before I finish ranting about liking a Miley Cyrus song, I just have to say I came across this gem last week (Thank you, Gaby, for improving my life). Let me tell you, this boy had us bridal maids weak in the knees. I am so in love…sorry, Tyler.

PS…why is Mitchy C. making a cameo at 0:48?

Anyway, if you think this is all just a bunch of pop music with an adorable kid who sings well but really just has the personality…um, listen to his vocals. I swear, I’m swooning over a 13-year old.

Also, I’ve seen this kid sing, play piano, guitar, AND drums. What is he, an alien?

10 things I have to say about me

Holy shiii…let me get back to blog life. Soooooo much has gone down in the past week or so. I can’t wait to recap the JMJWedding! Since I have so much I wanna share, maybe I’ll just link it/say my peace?

1) An amazing cover of Taylor Swift’s “Love Story.” I sorta have a crush on this dude now.

2) I’m entirely over dealing with teenagers and young adults. I can’t wait until they step into the real world and get stampeded.

3) I’M 27! (Oh no…I don’t think I’ve ever revealed my age on here before. Talk about denial.)

4) non-Parker is/was the most beautiful bride ever…and I’m not just saying that cause she’s ma bestie.

5) I have a tumblr! Welcome to Unicorn Island. Come follow me.

6) Have I mentioned I got an iPhone? Two words: Life. Changing.

7) I think brunch was the best thing ever invented. Mi mi mi mimosa!

8) The Time Traveler’s Wife (movie-version) was highly disappointing. I actually expected it to be.

9) My mom makes the best pie, ever!

10) I just bought the Miley Cyrus song, Party In The U.S.A. and I like LOVE it. What can I say, I’m a Pop (not crack) addict.

Brilliant in all senses of the word

I can only hold up for so long…a recap to come full of pictures & videos sometime later this week. For now, my newest obsession: Channing Johnson Photography.

The Lovely Bones

Watching this just gave me goosebumps. As my favorite book of all times (even more so than The Time Traveler’s Wife), I have mixed feelings about going to see it. It rests perfectly in my mind, just how I want it to, and I’m slightly afraid to unleash it.

The novel got me through my most difficult emotional period of my life. Though having no significant relation to my personal life, it helped me to get through each day. The moment I would give up and have no strength left in my body, I would pick up this book and distract myself, completely engulfing the life of Susie Salmon and taking it on as if it were my own. Forgetting who I was and the situation I was in became insignificant. I have this book to thank for so many things…A beautiful afterlife.

Marriage

I really can’t believe this weekend is approaching already. Jessica & Jesse are getting married! I feel like it was just yesterday when we were celebrating their engagement at Nizza. I swear to geez that I’ve been talking about this every single second of my days. The countdown has been ridiculous, and I don’t think I’ve been this excited about any kind of event before.

The bachlorette party was already the most fun weekend I’ve had in my entire life (really, that’s not an exaggeration). I wonder how this weekend will factor in. I already can’t wait to meet Jessica’s extended Panamanian family and Jesse’s side as well. So many friends are gonna be there to celebrate, and I’m so excited to have my boyfriend as my date. Granted Tyler is just as good friends with the couple as I am, I’ve never brought a date to a wedding, so I’m excited to have him by my side.

In honor of the upcoming festivity, here is just a small selection of the 680 photos taken from bachlorette party on June 13th. The rest of the pictures are available to view in my gallery. If you’re looking for a more descriptive recap of the evening, Jessica covers that quite perfectly at her blog.

A day we can’t forget…






and a night we’ll always remember.
