Made very well

I've become a huge fan of the brand Madewell ever since Christmas time when I randomly stopped in there and bought my huge chunky rhinestone jewel necklace and gorgeous plaid silk top. They have great clothes and even better accessories! Spotted these on Shopbop . Their costume jewelry is not only super glam but it's very good quality too! Worth the money for sure! I'm a lover of jewels and all things that sparkle. I'm kinda glad I still have a gift card to their store! I'll have to pay them a visit soon!xx M

Foldable Fashion...

Being a girl who works in fashion and practically lives in 4"+ heels I typically carry around  pair of flats or flip-flops with me for subway commuting or those last few hrs of work when I can't possibly take the pinching in my pinky toes anymore. Problem is those flats I carry are either bulky, or somewhat expensive and I don't want to ruin them by shoving them deep in my bag with everything else. I spotted these roll-able ballet flats at Kitson in LA a few months back and tried them on but decided not to buy them. Photo credit: Soleil Shoe Co. Now thinking about it I wish I had. The are most definitely practical. I ordered the patent black and I will surely carry them everywhere. Even for the evenings out when I decide to subway it, walking in heels in teeny skirts is not the most ideal!! These could be a miracle considering they roll up so tiny they will fit in my little evening bag!! Super genius!! get yours here Soleil Shoe Co.

Valentino Love

Bows bows bows. These are a few of my favorite things! I looovvveeee this trend and I hope it sticks around for a bit. I have headbands, and sweatshirts, and shoes (oh my) with bows! I fell in love with these Valentino jelly bow flip-flops while in LA and had to have em! It was a major struggle to find my size but eventually I made it happen. Or intermix did to be exact! They come in a few colors, the pink were oh so cute but I stuck with tried and true black! Valentino = love!

They need to repeat that style in black and a cognac color asap!!! Props to Melinda for being so damn glamorous!!! Photo Credit : Shake it app for iphoneSide note - LOVE THE BLUE TOES!!xx M

Dont leave home without it!

A dirty mouth is the most unglamorous thing a girl can have. Stay classy and cool and keep those pearly white looking and smelling glamtastic! This is my one essential item that I carry around everywhere. The Colgate Wisp. Photo Credit: Colgatewisp.comIt's a teeny pocket-sized disposable toothbrush with no water necessary. One side has bristles with a freshening bead in the middle it sorta bursts as you brush. On the other side is a soft pick to get in between teeth. They come in a 4 pack for $2.39 or a 16 pack for $7.99, available at most drugstores.  I've made it a habit to leave one in every bag I own so I don't forget it. This is the one thing you shouldn't leave the house without!Happy brushing!xx M

A best friend....

They are hard to come by, but I can't thank Nikki enough for what she did for me today. Thats a serious true friend and I love her to death! An oldie but a goodie <3xx M

3:00 Pick me up....

So we all know what the dreaded 3:00 mid day slump feels like and we inevitably always need a little pick me up. I'm going to post daily (or try to) at 3:00 about something glamorous to perk you up and hopefully make the rest of the day fly by smoothly! Todays Pick me up : COCONUT M&M'sThese are the best guilty little treat! I ordered a box of these from amazon about a month ago because I'm just obsessed with all things coconut!Coconut and Chocolate! MMMM perfect combo!Hope the rest of your day is Glamtastic!!xx M

Well Hello Sailor.....

I'm shoe obsessed and tend to go for the less traditional ones sometimes, and these are just that!!! Photo Credit: Fancy PhotoshopI'm loving the nautical trend this spring and when I spotted these by Nine West I had to have them! With simple slouchy ripped jeans and a clean white tee they look ridiculously cute!! They truly evoke the pin-up girl in me! Ahhh what an era!!

Downward Facing Dog....Literally!

So on the way to lunch yesterday I was in a cab watching those bits of news on the screens in the back of the taxi and saw a clip about Doga. Photo Credit: Petwellbeing.comThis New form of yoga gives a whole new meaning to the position downward facing dog. No it's not for humans it's for those of the canine breed. Honestly those who do not have a dog might think this is a bit crazy......actually those with a dog might think so too, but Yoga for Dogs might be just what the doctor ordered for those breeds that can be a bit on the over excited side.  Having a Yorkie who sometimes can get a bit antsy and a bit hyper and a bit, well...out of sorts, this might be just the thing he needs to chill out! I'm willing to give this a try, it might be better than the other alternatives I was conjuring up in my head the other night. Although i highly doubt he'd sit still for even 5 minutes. Photo Credit: shake it app for iphoneQuintin looks like he could use some Doga!You can read a little about this here at NY Times Online.xx M

Terrace Lovin'...

Or just plain old backyard lovin'. But being a city gal we usually have terraces and not backyards. If you have one, GLAM IT UP! I fell for this faux wooden outdoor flooring from Ikea recently when taking a gander over at my neighbors terrace and it just looked so homey over there! (props to B409!) So I decided to hijack the design detail!! They are super easy to install, they just sorta click together and they are super cheap; $34.99 for the pack of nine. I only needed 5 1/2 Packs. Not bad!! Here's a snap shot of my finished terrace. I seriously want to spend every minute out there now! Way more glamorous than gray cement!xx M

UPDATE: SOY CAFE

IS DELIC!!! Had lunch today with my bestie and what a great lunch it was. I used my deal purchased at Living Social Deals (sign up its free!) and what a good deal it was!! I paid $15 for a $30 meal value and here's what we had:Chicken, Avocado and dill sandwich on whole grain bread with cranberries and nuts baked in. Consensus: Id give it a 4 out of five taking one point off for the bread being a bit on the over baked side other than that fantastic!Hazelnut/coconut Soy Latte for me.......one word AMAZING. I want one everyday !!!Coffee with soy milk for Nikki. I didn't have the pleasure of tasting the coffee but I'm sure it was a 5!Chocolate/Banana crepe to share. AMAZING! We actually ordered the Hazelnut/Chocolate crepe but they made a mistake...sometimes mistakes turn out to be for the best and so it was! we were in heaven!I'll def be back to soy cafe again! Hopefully this weekend!!!Soy Cafe115 Greenwich ave.NY, NYxx M
