New Madewell…

I just checked out Madewell’s web site and their new spring line is out

The looks are sooo cute, I can’t wait to get my hands on them!!!

It’s that time again…

OH NO.

Swim suits are hitting the stores and I am in NO shape both physically or mentally to A. think about ME in a bikini or B. TRYING THEM ON!!

Honestly this is cruel and unusual punishment, selling bathing suits right after the holidays.  That’s just not right.

Well, if I want to go somewhere warm for Spring Break, then I guess I better hit the … (gasp) GYM!?!? Oye Vey.

Does anyone have any workout suggestions? I’m going to need all the help I can get.

joooo

ENVY…

Anna Godbersen’s third novel to the LUXE series is due out on JANUARY 27TH.

You can pre-order it HERE.

Here’s a little taste to whats to come:

Jealous whispers.

Old rivalries.

New betrayals.

Two months after Elizabeth Holland’s dramatic homecoming, Manhattan eagerly awaits her return to the pinnacle of society. When Elizabeth refuses to rejoin her sister Diana’s side, however, those watching New York’s favorite family begin to suspect that all is not as it seems behind the stately doors of No. 17 Gramercy Park South.

Farther uptown, Henry and Penelope Schoonmaker are the city’s most celebrated couple. But despite the glittering diamond ring on Penelope’s finger, the newlyweds share little more than scorn for each other. And while the newspapers call Penelope’s social-climbing best friend, Carolina Broad, an heiress, her fortune – and her fame – are anything but secure, especially now that one of society’s darlings is slipping tales to the eager press.

In this next thrilling installment of Anna Godbersen’s bestselling Luxe series, Manhattan’s most envied residents appear to have everything they desire: Wealth. Beauty. Happiness. But sometimes the most practiced smiles hide the most scandalous secrets. . . .

I am so excited for this book to come out!! I’ll fill you in on all the deets once I get my hands on it!

What’s on YOUR list?…

The Holidays are almost here! And everyone is running to the malls for some last minute shopping.  I, unfortunately have one more gift to buy so tomorrow I’ll be in those long lines with the rest of the last minute shoppers great.

Anyways, my Mom always asks me to write up my “wish list” so she has some idea on what to get me for the holidays.  Well, she is lucky that I want so many things, which gives her a lot of options! LOL

So I figured I would share with you my holiday wish list for 2008 So get excited:

1. Call me old fashioned, but I do not have an ipod player in my vehicle.  My vehic does not have a tape recorder so all I’m left with is the ipod car FM transmitter.  Well, I never got around to buying one, so I just burned all my new music onto a CD.  Yea, its a pain.  So for this holiday, I asked for an IPOD Car Player:

2. I need a new camera.  My old Canon sucks. It has so many issues, I don’t know where to start.  I LOVE this new NIKON COOLPIX S60, but I might have to wait a bit for it.

3. I love BAGS.  Any bag that is HUGE and leather…I’m sold.  Its a weakness I have, so imagine how hard it was for me to breathe when I walked into the Furla bag store.  This bag is GOR-GE-OUS and the fact that its a shade of purple kills me.  I LOVE PURPLE. This is a long-shot…but I’ve been such a good girl this year

Clara BA85 (medium shopper)

4. I have been dieing to get a hold of anything from Madewell.  So this Holiday, I’m hoping that comes true!

5. I grew up with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and I have always admired them.  So with their new fashion book called Influence was published, I could not help but ask for it.

6.  I love Juicy Couture’s line of jewelry, not their gory stuff.  I love the simply yet elegance pieces.  Ones that don’t shout JUICY COUTURE!!!! These two pieces are just soo cute

The Beau Watch

Oynx Geometric Ring

That’s pretty much it!

So, what’s on YOUR wish list this year??

Happy Holidays

Look its Leighton!…

Thanks to justjared.com, my favorite girl, Leighton Meester was on the blog!! She graces the upcoming issue of   and dishes about her life.  I just can’t help myself…look at these pictures taken during the shoot.  Like, I love her. I admire her. I want to BE her. Just kidding…no but really…

Oh Gossip Girl,what a great show I can’t wait till the show returns and to get my hands on this magazine!

Check out more pictures from the shoot here.

I’m FLOORious…

SO MAD.

I logged onto the Internet and my homepage popped up as usual.  To my surprise and ANGER, guess who was on my AOL news feed?  Little Miss Aguilera was featured on the Entertainment section.

Christina is a great singer, I will admit that.  But the reason why I am not a fan of this woman is because she is RIPPING OFF LADY GAGA’S STYLE!! And the best part is…she denies it.  Like really?

So anyways, the picture was from her “birthday party” and you won’t believe what kind of eye make-up she had on.  It “resembled” Gaga’s make-up and I want Aguliera to own up to it.

See it for yourself (focus on the eye make-up).

Exhibit A:

Exhibit B:

(why the white pants?)

Is it me or is Aguilera stealing Gaga’s style??

You be the judge.

My BFF M and I agree that Aguilera is a GAGA WANNABE, and we just wait for Aguilera to realize that she will never, beautiful and dirty rich.

The CITY…

I have stopped watching The Hills simply because it is getting old and very annoying.  Every season it is the same story: she said this and he did that and omg wtf my life sucks and what bar should we get into a fight at?

Like really?

So, I have long since stopped tuning in on Monday nights to watch Lauren Conrad, Lo, Audrina, Heidi and Spencer bitch and moan about everything. Don’t get me wrong I love LC, but how many seasons of The Hills can I watch and endure??

I have always loved Whitney too, I mean who didn’t?  I also LOVED her style! So imagine my surprise when I heard that she was making a spin off of the The Hills called The City.

I am ecstatic and according to MTV, it will air December 29th at 10PM. I just watched the trailer and it looks great!

New city, new drama. Hopefully it won’t be a LC/Heidi/Spender soap opera.

Go HERE for the trailer.

Just so you know…

Just so you know,

Mamma Mia! came out on DVD yesterday and I am RUNNING out today to get it.

Walmart and Target are selling the DVD for $16.00!!! SO GO OUT AND GET IT NOW.

wow I’m not promoting the movie am I?

anyways, I’ll be watching the movie all day so look forward to more posts about Mamma Mia!

JOO

She’s got STYLE…

I have previously talked about Emma Watson growing up to being the newest fashionista here.

So imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon this spread of her in the Sunday Times. She is sporting the cutest fashions.

The article from the Sunday Times talks about Watson and the question on whether she will ever pose nude.  I honestly don’t understand this obsession with nude pictures, why can’t she just be in clothes?  Like Really.

In the end, the girl is awesome and watching her mature into the fashionista she is becoming is just fabulous.

Click it here for the story and some more pictures of the spread.

PS. I NEED THOSE LEGGINGS. Or at least I have to try them on…just to get it out of my system….

Dark Gossip…

Monday night’s Gossip Girl had to be one of the best episodes of the year. SHIT WENT DOWN.
Tears and shock were all I felt and I’m sure the rest of the Gossip Girls fan base felt it too.

"O Brother, Where Bart Thou?"

O Brother, Where Bart Thou? was a great episode and for anyone who missed it, I suggest you do everything in your power to watch it!

So here is my SHORT AND SWEET:

1. Oh Chuck. Blair finally said I LOVE YOU and you walked away.  My friends and I were practically in tears when Chuck came into Blair’s room, only to be left heartbroken when he left.   WHERE IS HE GOING!?!

2. Serena and Dan. Oh please. This love triangle is getting annoying. Aaron has to be the most hidEous person on the show.  Drop him NOW.

3. Jenny wasn’t too bad…that dress she made for Eleanor was pretty legit. TOUCHE

4. Blair and her new Dad.  When she vented to him about Chuck, that embrace was the cutest thing.  I had chills, it was so touching to see Blair reach out to him like that. I love you Blair!!

5. AH, Rufus and Lily.  And now the “could have been” baby.  I was soo excited to finally see them get together, and then the bomb dropped.  I can’t wait to hear what happened, and if these two don’t end up together, I am going to be heartbroken to the point where Gossip Girl won’t be able to put it back together!

6. So We have to wait until January?? UGH that is too long. I guess I’ll be watching season 1 over again for my weekly dose of gossip.

OH YEA! A gossip for you to munch on while we wait for the season to start up again, a “spin-off” of Gossip Girl is in the works and rumor has it that little Miss Georgina will be the star.  go HERE for the gossip….

Until then,

you know you love me and my short and sweets,
