I actually ventured out to the mall on black Friday with my grandma a few weeks ago to do some Christmas shopping while in Cali. It was the only real time we had to go so the only appropriate (and obvious) outfit choice comprised of black. So when I came out to the living room before leaving and my brother said, "who died" I knew I had made the right call ;) BTW this dress is everything and applicable for nearly every season- I suggest you invest in one ASAP via your local Nordstrom.

Old School Glamour

 

This is a picture of Ama before one of her high school proms. Helloooo, Fabulous! I mean, seriously?

She looks amazing. And I want that dress!

Ama was so embarrassed when my mom pulled this photo up on her iPad and started sharing it with people at my brother's 21st birthday party. Everyone thought it was incredible (including the 21-year-old boys running around), of course, and Ama just sat there looking all flustered- she's too modest. I've already made plans to blow this photo up to an 8x10 and hang it somewhere fantastic in my apartment.

Cobalt blue has become my new favorite color. I mean, I will always be a pink girl, but there's something about that rich blue that keeps me coming back for more. It's doing serious damage to my bank account, I tell you! Anyway, I am SO happy it's February! January was just a bit too drab. I mean, there were some fun things thrown in (brother's 21st and picking up Jubie) but I think I officially feel like 2012 can start for me- which is a great feeling :) Plus, N and I are officially 18 days away from the Caribbean! Woo who!
