Tonight we are hanging with one of the boy toys besties (can you use that term for boys??) from college... he is always a barrel of laughs. Not much going on tomorrow... hopefully going to get a long run in the morning (having the wedding seven months away is a real motivator!) and we are hoping to catch up with the boy toy's brother and his fam.

I am a little tardy for this party on posting about the big 70's trend that is in full effect for spring and summer... but let's just call it fashionably late... shall we?? Last summer all of the buzz was geared towards 60's Mad Men inspiration - well this year it is easy, breezy boho looks and disco fever nights...<br /><br />I am truly am a lover of bohemian fashion; however, it really isn't for me... (<a href="http://thisfreebird.blogspot.com/">Carrie</a> from one of my fav blogs pulls this look off every time... jealous much!) I can get away with maxi dresses and can not wait to sport a maxi skirt - but the wide leg pants and calf length skirts (short legs here people!) just aren't my friends... so this is my spin 70's fashion... if there is one thing to always remember when it comes to new trends - they aren't for everyone! Dress for your body type and your personal likes...<br /></p>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-8450092541431830602011-03-01T11:18:00.000-08:002011-03-01T11:42:35.583-08:00BowTastic!<div style="POSITION: relative; WIDTH: 500px; HEIGHT: 500px"><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/spring_perfection/set?.embedder=1694732&.mid=embed&id=28850487"><img title="Spring Perfection" border="0" alt="Spring Perfection" src="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-set/BQcDAAAAAwoDanBnAAAABC5vdXQKFlBxZ3NyanRFNEJHSGs0MjRxTFdOUEEAAAACaWQKAXgAAAAEc2l6ZQ.jpg" width="500" height="500" force="1" /></a><!-- End Image --></div><p> </p><p> </p><p>Oh Mr. Valentino can you please cut me some sort of deal on these lovely pumps...

A classic blazer thrown over dress or skirt equals pretty much perfection in my book!<br /><br />Oh and a little hint - my favorite go-to black blazer is actually just an old Calvin Klein suit jacket (that I hadn't worn in years) - I rolled up the sleeves a couple of times and voila had my new fav staple piece without even opening my wallet! </p>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-81238179082390909272011-02-25T12:14:00.000-08:002011-02-25T12:37:15.303-08:00Friday Finds: Jewelry too Good to be True<div align="center"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/65835477/darling-multi-tourmaline-rondelle-14k?ref=v1_other_2"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 348px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577727549488426818" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihitQLp-4jLtxE1W6PiyTXTUL_EpBJK1YrC520u4B6y8D1K3X4J-bIeZwf7PswrbTuxkWSSD3Oi_YcoCX5UEvjaR9MkyBGWYjWN3IZa-lMOoSL5JrU8Cv5zjBKoiHYig7O4TwKar-bCK8/s400/il_570xN.207874076%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a>What's not to love??

I have officially been a very bad blogger lately. After we got back from NYC and I reveled in the idea of being a bride I jumped full force into wedding planning (we decided on an October wedding of this year). While the wedding has somehow already taken over all of my thoughts I have neglected my happy place... this blog and all of my fav daily reads! That stops here!<br /><br />One of my favorite things about spring is retiring my boring black and tan handbags for a little pop of color every once in a while. I mean who doesn't enjoy throwing a bright and unexpected party over their shoulder?? I for one am ready to bring on the color!<br /></p>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-88969217360397832262011-02-15T14:43:00.001-08:002011-02-15T15:08:02.495-08:00I Am Back!<div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfVVm2tCc7lRq0XvzWKRBGiPeChMvuM0E681WJUEELSFUHaltdmOojIZrblpGtFKW71NWSmcapoQNmw59ul2gdxEujhWqfRS3qEyC6GvIfQ7You192ac6FMPP2SjPRYWM6BlJ_8njDjh4/s1600/NYC_Engagement%2521+004.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Well... just because the weekend is over doesn't mean our fun has come to an end! In just two short days me and the boy toy will be kissing this fabulous warm weather behind for the slush filled streets of NYC! We booked our trip about two weeks ago to visit a couple of my besties from high school and their lovers. We are staying at my aunt's fabulous Upper East Side apartment - no one lives there as they purchased a couple years ago for trips such as this!<br /><br />We have all sorts of fun things planned - fun dinners with friends, museums and of course shopping! Don't worry that I have already mapped out the fabulous vintage shops I want to hit up - my friends always laugh because I always show up with my excel spreadsheet (obvi copies for everyone) in hand ready to shop!<br /><br />Now on to the important things... what to pack?? I have been enjoying me some summer like conditions here in San Diego and have totally forgotten how to dress for winter!<br /><br /><br /></p>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-73455454695036224332011-02-04T20:34:00.000-08:002011-02-04T20:34:00.079-08:00Happy Weekend!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe3KC-DjN6WruDa_1BI99hGbBRsf4EfGJJ8c4BOgNTBhmmmOhidcvEFhVZ9ucN19rv8D5IWPyIZ15RxRjhXbDMrKS763o87Sju96B4O5AWmuV_gbsiNhIKCsAbkTzvYGcMWz8Z46GgOcU/s1600/20080529131746%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 265px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5569987206498351954" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe3KC-DjN6WruDa_1BI99hGbBRsf4EfGJJ8c4BOgNTBhmmmOhidcvEFhVZ9ucN19rv8D5IWPyIZ15RxRjhXbDMrKS763o87Sju96B4O5AWmuV_gbsiNhIKCsAbkTzvYGcMWz8Z46GgOcU/s400/20080529131746%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><div>I am looking forward to a weekend filled with amingos and amigas! To kick the weekend off the boy toy is home early and we are going to check out some outdoor furniture and fire pit (we had our backyard redone in the winter - the grass town out and stone pavers laid). And tonight is date night... excited for some yummy food and a glass or two of vino! Saturday the boy toy is going golfing with my brother and friends and us girls are going to meet up with them after at a brewery nearby. And the grand finale of the weekend will be our BBQ during the big game! Excited to have our friends over and cheers in the new backyard... and it doesn't hurt that it is an excuse to overindulge in all of the finger foods!</div><br /><div></div><div>What do yall have planned for the big game??</div><br /><div></div><div>Have a fabulous weekend!</div><br /><div></div><div><span style="font-size:78%;">pic: <a href="http://weheartit.com/">weheartit</a></span></div>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-63182901487360410742011-02-04T11:09:00.000-08:002011-02-04T12:07:34.340-08:00Friday Finds...

From the Hardware Store!A few weekends ago the boy toy and I were at <a href="http://www.homedepot.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Home Depot</span></a> picking up a few things for some <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">diys</span> around the house. When I was walking around I realized what a mecca that place was for projects for my own <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">diys</span>! I went back the next day (because lets be honest the boy toy does not have the patience to wait for me while I shop... even if it is in Home Depot!). I <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">seriously</span> picked out about 50+ washers, nuts and copper tubes for under $8 - seriously you can get these things for just pennies - way cheaper than materials at a bead or craft store and in my opinion just as cute!<br /><br />I <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">wasn't</span> exactly sure what I felt like making... I spray painted about half of my materials gold, because we all know I am obsessed with ghetto gold!

Well thank heavens this isn't the year we will have to find out. Like most years in the past the nautical trend is going to be in full force once again (I mean seriously what is better than navy and stripes). One of my favorite ways to show my nautical pride is with accessories and I for one am always down for a rope necklace why not spice it up a bit and add some knotted gold instead?? <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">Etsy</a> is filled with all kinds of knotted goodness to add the perfect updated (not to mention handmade) accessories to your nautical stripes! </div></div></div></div></div>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-86621386770123958892011-01-27T15:10:00.000-08:002011-01-27T15:39:57.797-08:00Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOwKTtzXf4xuw-yoMTNu0Zo1A8ensLX6BvFGLD44CzcFBhlEM5R1WLizKkrXE3ybU9PnGsS-r0f-wVYEqiyLAEB0id3lHIdIvsaYDoEr_fX7RYxlEnHGZcwOAabWBEzu8OsqWp6Xvw6J8/s1600/langstons_2139_28072931%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 338px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 368px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013639378423666" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOwKTtzXf4xuw-yoMTNu0Zo1A8ensLX6BvFGLD44CzcFBhlEM5R1WLizKkrXE3ybU9PnGsS-r0f-wVYEqiyLAEB0id3lHIdIvsaYDoEr_fX7RYxlEnHGZcwOAabWBEzu8OsqWp6Xvw6J8/s400/langstons_2139_28072931%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3ulWHdjPCPoqS91uSzVqZankEGwqHtQF9NR5eAlpWrmea1Tr2zAIhw8hAw9adL2zAL5rZxBZDp1_OSly0HpNVVHcWKVCzFClFDzU4ZVN1ioOAVgPO4y_qbrBjR0xDVl5aBn_ieSy3cwQ/s1600/langstons_2143_4855825%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 331px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 424px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013440473014178" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3ulWHdjPCPoqS91uSzVqZankEGwqHtQF9NR5eAlpWrmea1Tr2zAIhw8hAw9adL2zAL5rZxBZDp1_OSly0HpNVVHcWKVCzFClFDzU4ZVN1ioOAVgPO4y_qbrBjR0xDVl5aBn_ieSy3cwQ/s400/langstons_2143_4855825%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMUvAuS5_g9ySxc1NhCPSGrFOsiE2jvdhZDGvqxirG6Irs-E-T8y4dqUCrW5ZSlcwL9G7SVKVKi-vxh0DEpwOtFs2nCSDqPTydTQ0dFAY4u45Jh8gjHAN-B7AHmG63P9HOmejeHqWXjJA/s1600/langstons_2143_5104616%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 357px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013436147294498" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMUvAuS5_g9ySxc1NhCPSGrFOsiE2jvdhZDGvqxirG6Irs-E-T8y4dqUCrW5ZSlcwL9G7SVKVKi-vxh0DEpwOtFs2nCSDqPTydTQ0dFAY4u45Jh8gjHAN-B7AHmG63P9HOmejeHqWXjJA/s400/langstons_2143_5104616%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ6ODvSI6z1wTmkI4Z6A6PvUwzi5XkPsbPTf9-3mkJkFadl6JjEFb6lpvd2wFNPoBJlRO1PO-Ff8jnmtlsngAEXQkU-AMTbeKTbLjY6X69fWXV9LPpH9GiJOErDTJEhgBHx7KxWiZojwo/s1600/langstons_2144_2998567%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 334px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 366px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013425129172066" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ6ODvSI6z1wTmkI4Z6A6PvUwzi5XkPsbPTf9-3mkJkFadl6JjEFb6lpvd2wFNPoBJlRO1PO-Ff8jnmtlsngAEXQkU-AMTbeKTbLjY6X69fWXV9LPpH9GiJOErDTJEhgBHx7KxWiZojwo/s400/langstons_2144_2998567%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO67-2RBYvktaWhCToSHw4bKhyuFls83muz5G9633rtfzVMvDM0SDB80n3GA5j_bI-SW07JeZovE5sa7uYxXsfsYlpapjGeWemzFaMl8rDpFHCQz1PVC1s2xNkumE4eWb33dlRHFWAm5Q/s1600/langstons_2144_2801347%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 259px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 416px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013424463794450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO67-2RBYvktaWhCToSHw4bKhyuFls83muz5G9633rtfzVMvDM0SDB80n3GA5j_bI-SW07JeZovE5sa7uYxXsfsYlpapjGeWemzFaMl8rDpFHCQz1PVC1s2xNkumE4eWb33dlRHFWAm5Q/s400/langstons_2144_2801347%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGx0FJ396gR5mT4gap_bve57ajXP3rt8xNW6H3y4hzu0p6A6CEDS_EqozXYFBMXRJvqJoeagH6EFa3yTjblXWNThzNRd1J7Lym7dj8sf7KDyRmoMPg4kU66UO76AXQ1mMJNEDRLIY7B4/s1600/langstons_2144_3199978%255B1%255D.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 366px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 218px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567013417344379362" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGx0FJ396gR5mT4gap_bve57ajXP3rt8xNW6H3y4hzu0p6A6CEDS_EqozXYFBMXRJvqJoeagH6EFa3yTjblXWNThzNRd1J7Lym7dj8sf7KDyRmoMPg4kU66UO76AXQ1mMJNEDRLIY7B4/s400/langstons_2144_3199978%255B1%255D.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Yeeeooow</span>!

It has been one year since my very first post and I guess my first step into the world that I didn't even know existed - the blogosphere! I seriously had no idea that there were so many creative and talented people out there willing to share their daily thoughts for the world to see. I first started this blog for a creative outlet and sort of a journal for the many things that inspire me throughout the year. I never expected to meet such fabulous peeps and continue to be inspired everyday by others posts. Cant wait for another year in the world of blogging! </div><div></div><div><br />Cheers!</div><br /><div><span style="font-size:78%;">pics: weheartit</span></div></div></div></div></div></div>Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-38500149866636129082011-01-26T12:11:00.000-08:002011-01-26T14:47:13.921-08:00Xoxo...

There is the option of diy a sparkly bauble but sometimes it ends up costing an arm and a leg for all of the materials unless you have old necklaces in need of a face lift... which maybe I will just stick to F21!Moosettehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15190258654100376949noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365928293136021756.post-83750335271671041142011-01-25T17:10:00.000-08:002011-01-25T18:15:13.098-08:00Best of Both Worlds...<div style="POSITION: relative; WIDTH: 500px; HEIGHT: 500px"><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/stripes_polka_dots/set?.embedder=1694732&.mid=embed&id=27526317"><img style="WIDTH: 457px; HEIGHT: 500px" title="Stripes and Polka Dots" border="0" alt="Stripes and Polka Dots" src="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-set/BQcDAAAAAwoDanBnAAAABC5vdXQKFkxHYlVEdWtvNEJHLU9MTGpPQjkzMncAAAACaWQKAXgAAAAEc2l6ZQ.jpg" width="500" height="500" force="1" /></a></div><br /><div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 8px" align="center"><a href="http://www.suzannah.com/separates/tops/silk-print-pussy-bow-blouse-clone-clone.aspx"><span style="color:#ffcc99;">1 </span></a><span style="color:#ffcc99;">/ </span><a href="http://www.mytheresa.com/shop/STRIPED-SKIRT-WITH-BELT-p-15593.html?siteID=Hy3bqNL2jtQ-_AbZXKwvHjH3qL3KAvnPBQ&quid=61058463421S1091658T&gkid=acx&utm_source=Affilate&utm_medium=INT&utm_campaign=2"><span style="color:#ffcc99;">2 </span></a><span style="color:#ffcc99;">/ </span><a href="http://www.us.allsaints.com/women/knitwear/stripe-manila-cardigan/flint-mrl%7Cwshd-blk/wkh147-1876"><span style="color:#ffcc99;">3</span></a><span style="color:#ffcc99;"> / </span><a href="http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Bottoms/Skirts/Sprinkled+with+Sweetness+Skirt+in+Navy?utm_medium=CJaffiliate&utm_campaign=CJ&utm_source=CJ"><span style="color:#ffcc99;">4 </span></a><span style="color:#ffcc99;">/ </span><a href="http://www.marni.com/item/tskay/3FD17CD7,%203FD17CD7//MARNI/rr/1/cod10/37217264RI"><span style="color:#ffcc99;">5</span></a><span style="color:#ffcc99;"> /</span><a href="http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Womens/Bottoms/Aerial+Ribbon+Skirt?utm_medium=CJaffiliate&utm_campaign=CJ&utm_source=CJ"><span style="color:#ffcc99;"> 6</span></a></div><div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 8px" align="center"><span style="color:#ffcc99;"></span></div><div style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 8px" align="left"><br />Two of my favorite prints are stripes and polka dots - so I figured why not mix them together??
