Happy 2nd Birthday, Melificent!!!

Via weheartit.com

Just add one more candle to that pretty little pink cake goodness, because Melificent is TWO today!

Wow, what a journey. It’s incredible to believe that another year has flown by, this one better than the last. I have had so many amazing opportunities, met so many interesting people and have challenged myself to be creative and dedicated. This little blog is such an important part of my life, and it is so humbling to know that it is a part of so many others’. The blog has grown even more in this past year, and I hope those stats only continue to grow. I love sharing fun, cute and interesting things with you all on a daily basis.

In honor of my bloggy birthday (cute, no?), I will have some pretty special giveaways and features coming up during the rest of the month. I did not want to wait another minute, so let the BLOGGY BIRTHDAY BONANZA (I just made that up on the spot) begin!

That’s right! I am giving away a photo session of your choice (portrait, family, engagement, boudoir) with RGBmonster, my extremely talented hubby. This includes the 3-hour session and 30-50 of the best edited photos. The only restriction is that you must be a South Florida local! Feel free to look through his website as well as blog to check out his current work and projects.

Now, how do you enter? EASY!

1. Leave a comment to this blog stating what kind of shoot you would choose if you won
2. Like Melificent’s Facebook fan page
3. Like RGBmonster’s Facebook fan page

And in case you were wondering what it’s like to participate in an RGBmonster shoot, wonder no longer! Check out a behind the scenes video of Karina’s fun portrait shoot:

The winner will be announced one week from today: 2.17.11, so make sure to get your entries in soon! Good luck to everyone!

Happy Hump Day: Russell Brand

Whenever I watch an interview with Russell Brand, I try my best not to be eating or drinking. Why? Because chances are, I most probably will spit whatever is in my mouth in a fit of hysterical laughter. True story. Although I do not find him to be the most attractive man on Earth, he gets many brownie points from me because he has a hot British accent, he is extremely witty and intelligent, and he can make me laugh like a mofo. I will personally never forget his amazing performance as Aldous Snow in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which happens to be one of my favorite “I really need a laugh today” movies. I really have to get my hands on his books!

Go Jane Rocks!

Ever since starting this blog, I have had the opportunity to connect with some of my favorite retailers to bring you all great giveaways and product reviews. Makes me feel like such a lucky girl! This time was no different. As you all know by now, Go Jane is one of my favorite online shops to find clothes, shoes and accessories at affordable prices. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been complimented while wearing one of their dresses or shoes, which is why I was so excited when they decided to mail me an item of my choice for review!

Although it was painstakingly difficult to choose just one item from their shop (do you know they get 300 new styles added weekly?), I finally decided on the pocketed button trim cold shoulder dress in ivory. I excitedly tried it on and it exceeded all my expectations! Unfortunately (or fortunately), I forgot to calculate the weight I have lost over the past month (yay, gluten free diet & spinning!) so it fit a little loose, but I actually like the way it slumps off my shoulder. It gives it a very relaxed, resort feel that I dig. And how cute are those little gold buttons along the sleeves? Such a special touch!

However, what I loved the most was the way it paired perfectly with my new wedges also from Go Jane! You’ll see it styled a little differently when I sport it for our special Valentine’s Day party for two this weekend, as I’ll be pairing it with some fun holiday fueled accessories.

I hope I could provide you with yet another online shop to add to those growing bookmarks labeled “retail therapy.” Trust me, this one is worth it.

Super Bowl Weekend Hangover

Congrats to the Packers!

Hope you all had a great weekend full of friends, food and fun like we did. Unfortunately, this is why I am still recovering!
I’ll be back in business tomorrow – have a fabulous Monday, everyone!

ps; so many great movie trailers last night!

Lovable Friday!

1. Dino bookend

Who wouldn’t want Bobo the dinosaur holding up their books, acting as a door stopper or just staring at you with those non-existent, but somehow adorable eyes? You just can’t resist. Although a little pricey at $48, you can have your own leather Bobo to adorn your bachelor pad, children’s room or office space. It’s kind of weird and sad that I will no longer have a desk to call my own (new job starts in a couple weeks & it’s a contracted position), but if I still did, I would love this little sucker to perch on it. Although I would probably switch out his plain black collar for a nice hot pink number instead. 😉
