Posting in my sleep.

Grab your cocktails its story time! I began this blog not only to have a personal journal for myself to reference later but to connect with the world. So lets face it I am a wannabe writer and I'm not afraid to admit it. I can only dream of becoming a best seller on day and opening the gates for many across the world but until then I thank God that there are real writers out there. So I'm not a twilight fan or a harry potter girl but I have to say I'm wrapped up in tattoos and fire and even hornets nets. believe it or not this hippy loving fashion girl that I'am loves Stieg Larsson. He is best known for his authorship of the Millennium Trilogy of crime novels which were published posthumously. So you must of heard around about these books all three are out. Its a fast paced crime mystery and a love story under it all. Sony Pictures are now seeing dollar signs with this novel turned movie. It has been confirmed that Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara and Robin Wright Penn will bring this to life. trust me when i
say read this one. Night





Oh yeah i seen both movies already the Swedish version

Nicole Richie

Bold Jewelry isn't just for summer anymore, House of Harlow by Nicole Richie making statement pieces for the fall to jazz up your wardrobe. With a mix of gold tones and leather, sparkle and shine. No more hippies from the 60's but where moving to boho chic of 2011. I have to say I'm falling head over heels, with the new take on bohemian- influenced accessories and so are many others that would agree. London Glamour Mag just gave her a award for break through label of the year. Make your wish list early this year because at these affordable prices their such to be sold out soon.

Good news you can get girlie dress, flirty tops and military- inspired pieces at a really low price. Its was only a matter of time before Jc penny got on the bandwagon with designer collaborations. Last years I (Heart) Ronson and Olsenboye by Mary- Kate & Ashley are one of the few labels that were very success full as a branch off to there larger market. I hope this is not a flop, but from what I'm seeing now, i doubt it.

Fashion Road kill

I moved to Atlanta and was now trapped in hicksville. I didn't see my beloved designer names or stores I'm use to. I got local malls instead of posh boutiques, I got Walmarts not Soho city streets. I was a walking mess. I had no one to help, I became fashion road kill, it was a very hard transitions. I have always been a fan of target but only went there for my household things I had no idea that I would become a frequent shopper. Target and there many designers are super affordable and its working in my starving writers budget really well. I have to say Ive gotten everything from jeggings to blazers to cute tee's and floral dress for fall.

DIY

Summer is over! And the season to be jolly is only months away. For the past month I have not only been cutting back my weekly visits to the salon, but instead I'm at home trying to get the perfect Mani Pedi with out the price. I know its not easy and Ive been working at it for some time now. Going over and over to get the most even coverage as possible can be time consuming and very messy. So what did i do ? I went to walmart and raided the beauty Aile, and they had all the things I was looking for at a really low price. To start off i only spent 20 dollars but it pays for it self in two visits to the salon i saved 20.00 a month. Tell me that doesn't feel good.

• Nail polish remover• A large bowl or foot bath filled with water and your favorite bubble bath• Cuticle oil• Exfoliating foot scrub• A bath towel• A hand towel• A foot callus file• Nail clipper• A fine grit nail file• Foot lotion• Cotton pads• Base coat• Your chosen nail polish color• Top coat• Toe separators

I added Epsom salt because it really does soothe tired feet. but its really is up to you.

saving $20 a month added to $240 a year thats a cool new pair of shoes. Think twice when spending your hard earned cash.

Emmy's..

I'm so excited to see this year leading ladies at the Emmy's. My three favorite nominees are:
Glee's: Lea Michele (Nominated for: outstanding lead actress in a comedy series)
This leading lady has not only won our hearts with her incredible talent but shes pretty stylish too.




Mad Men's:January Jones (Nominated for: Outstanding lead actress in a drama series)
Not only are men going gaga for this simply sexy Blondie but women are loving her feminine glam on and off screen.




OK so she not nominated but her show is, I'm in love with True Bloods: Anna Paquin.
She more then Sookie Stackhouse, shes falling in love with vamps and kicking ass too while looking good.
