Girls, Girls, Girls.

Best friend's bachelorette party last weekend; wedding this coming weekend. Don't hate me for not blogging these past few days as I have had limited access to both my brain and my computer. Let's just say that this bachelorette weekend was definitely one to remember. File as recovering.

Saturday Escape: Sicily.

Ortygia, in Syracuse | Salina, where the sirens tempted Odysseus 

Room 19 at Salina’s Capofaro Resort | Vineyards at Capofaro

Salina lighthouse | Cannoli via Antica Dolceria Bonajuto, Modica | A market

Although I'll be in the the Napa Valley in just about one week, there is another wine country that I've been dreaming of lately. The island of Sicily is one that I never got to visit when I was living in Italy, but it is one that is definitely on my list of places to visit ASAP. And after taking a look at those cannoli's and those truly legendary beaches, I can't imagine wanting to go anywhere else in the world. File as dreaming.

Home to Runway: Smoke Signals.

Pink eye never looked so good...not to mention that you can never go wrong with pink cushions.

----------------------------------------------

Insane amount of blue crushes here, reminding me how chic cobalt can be.

----------------------------------------------

Yellow eyeshadow and a matching yellow canvas? Sign me up.

----------------------------------------------

There is a reason that a grey smokey eye (along with equally dark linens) are classics.

Insta-Files: Catch-25.

My 25th birthday is fast approaching (okay well maybe not that fast), yet even though I have no impending plans and no real idea of what I'd like to do, I have a feeling that my plans were just made with the purchase of this dress. Although it's been sold out on Asos for weeks, I snagged what must have been someone's return. Only thing is...it's just a bit out of my price range (endlessly trying to save up for a place of my own) making this a real catch-25. File as decisions, decisions.

I've Done a Bad, Bad Thing.

Ok, I'm sorry! Well wait, I think I'd like to change that to sorry I'm not sorry! Kidding! But seriously this past week for me has literally gone by in a flash. Although I couldn't seem to find the time to do a blog post last week, I was having a rather lovely week enjoying the Olympics, catching up on sleep, and making plans to see some old friends in the near future. But, after a coworker pointed out that since I've started working with the company my blog posts have decreased by half per month, I knew something had to change. So I'm here to say that I'm back! Stay tuned for some fabulous posts over the next few weeks. File as going for gold.

Insta-Files: Moving Day.

No, it wasn't the moving day that I have really been hoping for...but it will suffice nonetheless! With a new office (what it lacks in windows to the outside world it definitely makes up for with white, ridiculously oversized offices) I can't help but be happy that I feel like I'm moving someplace new. And I'm taking my flamingo with me. File as purse passenger!

Current Obsessions: Black Tie.

What's wrong for wanting a little glam factor every day of the week? Well, I've been definitely smitten with the black-tie mood of the above snaps. Whether it's a Tom Ford tuxedo (does clothing really get any better than that for a man?) wearing the chicest black shorts like a pro or sipping on copious amounts of bubbly (Vueve of course) there is nothing wrong with upping the glam factor, if just a little bit. File as bubble time.
