Squeeworthy: Dealership the Series

I have a whole lot of beautiful, wonderful and talented friends in California. One of the many reasons I head over there a whole lot. I just can’t handle not seeing them on a regular basis. I’m greedy like that. Anywho, one of their friends, Todd, filled me in on his hysterical online series, Dealership. The site is chock-full of funny little skits starring Todd (I mean, Freebrook) and his buddies that revolve around their work days adventures at a car dealership.

After watching a few episodes, I was cracking up (need me some of those powerblinds) – definitely reminded me of some sort of spin-off of The Office (that’s a compliment). So check it out, spend some quality time watching the gang and shoot them a line or two about how much you loved it (I know you will!).

Happy Hump Day: Jon Hamm

Because I never say no to my lovely readers, I decided to also feature the second most popular dude in my open vote for hump day hotties: Jon Hamm! Now I really tried to get into Mad Men, I did. But for some reason, I just couldn’t. I think it’s because all the characters didn’t have any redeeming qualities to them – I just couldn’t find any of them all that lovable. But it appears I’m the only one! America is completely enamored with the show and its leading man, Mr. Jon Hamm. And I can’t say I really blame them on that tip. He’s quite the stunner. See evidence below! 😉

What I Wore | St. Patrick’s Day

Since a few of you expressed that you didn’t want me to stop my outfit posts, I decided to occasionally feature one from time to time. It’s very time-consuming to make these kind of posts every day, so I totally give all my favorite fashion bloggers major props for the dedication.

But I digress.
On St. Patrick’s Day, I was inspired by the lovely Kendi and her recent jean stylings. I adored how she was able to pair exaggerated flares with a tucked in top; something I had never thought of doing…until now! I also attempted to rock the messy “sex hair” – AKA; I was too lazy to straighten my hair. Don’t know if I was able to pull it off though – I think it looked more like I needed to be gifted a brush.

Lovable Friday!

1. Leather bow cuff

Forget Beyonce’s advice, I’d like to put a bow on it. On everything! I adore bows, and this cute leather cuff makes me swoon! It also comes in pink, but there is just something so lovely about this blue hue. It would look great paired with skinny jeans and a neutral tank!

Squeeworthy: *Blank Photos

I have a lot of creative and wonderful people in my life. One of them happens to be my good friend, Penn, of *Blank Photos. She is a South Florida photographer that mainly focuses on infants, children and families, but also shoots events and portraits. I asked her if she would be willing to shoot me for my blog redesign (coming soon!), and thankfully she agreed! I had a great time shooting both at a park across the street from my home, and at Green Street‘s back room in Coconut Grove.

In case you are interested, my makeup was done by the fabulous Llynette Shirazi, my outfits courtesy of Lazy Oaf and nail polish(s) were Essie’s Mint Candy Apple and Pansy.
