Magical Moments Monday

There is definitely a lot to be thankful for on this magical Monday, so I won’t waste any more time and just get to it:

x. The hubs and I just celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary & it was perfectly low key & romantic. Just our style.
x. Being home after a wonderful 2-week vacation. I missed our house and dogs so much!
x. Watching a shirtless Henry Cavill parade around with large sticks and bedazzled bows (as in archery, not hair accessories) in The Immortals.
x. Catching up on all our missed TV. What’s better than one episode of Fringe? THREE.
x. Pumpkin pie froyo date at TCBY.
x. A full-length Hunger Games trailer. And it looks amazing.
x. Getting my hubby completely enraptured with the HG series – now I can fangirl out with him!
x. Feeling the love on our new couple blog, The Bombardment Society.
x. Finding a fully stocked Harajuku Mini collection at my local Target AND being able to fit into a size XL!

Hope the rest of you had a fabulous week!
You all better keep on those strict diets leading up to Thursday’s turkey extravaganza!
Gobble gobble!

Back in the States

Hi everyone!

I’m back!!!
I can’t even describe how amazing our vacation was, but as they say, home is truly where the heart is. I’m reluctant to jump back into reality again, but at the same time, our little routine will be greatly appreciated after our nonstop hectic Euro schedule.

Big thanks to my guest bloggers, Anika, Elissa and Lori Todd. They really held the fort while I was gone and shared some pretty great content. What do you have to look forward in the weeks to come? Some Euro outfit posts, a giveaway and some fun and personalized guides to each city we visited.

I can’t wait to get back on the ball, but for right now, I need to get my bearings.
Melificent will be back in full swing starting next week!

‘Til then!

Happy Halloween (& Bon Voyage)!!!!!!!!


via; weheartit

A very happy Halloween to all my amazing readers! I hope you have the most spooky, fun Monday ever!  While I moonlighted as Hello Kitty this past weekend, I will be getting my Katniss Everdeen on tonight while trick or treating with my nephew. What are you dressing up as?

ps; this will be the last post from little ‘ole me for the next 2+ weeks as we leave on a jet plane tomorrow headed to Europe! I’m leaving you all in good hands though. Three of the coolest chicks I know will be guest blogging in my absence and I am so excited to see what they share with you all. If you are interested in keeping up with our travels, you can follow our new blog, The Bombardment Society. But more on that later! Peace & hair grease!

Lovable Friday!

1. Cloud hangers

I wish I could tell you I know exactly where you can find and purchase these adorable cloud hangers, but unfortunately, this was one of those random Tumblr finds. However, after some Internet research, I found similar ones from one of my old favorites, Fred Flare. How cute would these look in a child’s closet or just to display some special frocks? Sigh!

Hair Emergency!


OK, so I don’t know what to think about my new hair color. I figured it would be a little shocking to me the first couple of days, but I still get kind of startled in the mirror every morning. I’m also leaking red dye every night in the shower and staining all my towels (is this normal? It has never happened to me for this long…). Plus, I’m scared to wear anything too colorful for fear that I may be one big clash monster. And not wearing color makes my world a pretty sad and angry place to live in.

So, I’m conflicted. Does it look good? Should I keep it? Am I overreacting?
Or, should I grab the closest bottle of Nice ‘N Easy and go to town attempting to dull it down?

I need your help! Please answer this poll as truthfully as possible. Every vote is anonymous, so no need to worry that you are offending me. Honestly, people have been pretty candid about the way they feel about my hair already, so I am used to the looks of complete horror. 😉

And yes, that is a most excellent DRIVE SHAFT tee I am rocking. I love you, Charlie Pace.
