Hi ladies & gents! It’s time again for a giveaway, and this is a good one!

Happy Hump Day: Colin O’Donoghue

As mentioned earlier, I got suckered into Once Upon A Time, and now that Fringe is over with, I find myself needing to fill that void with a new favorite show. And OUAT won out! Although I focused mainly on the female characters’ ridiculously adorable wardrobe during my last post, this time around I’m going to give the major man candy some attention. Seriously, this show has no shortage, which I always appreciate. However, the one that really stood out for me was Colin O’Donoghue, who plays Captain Hook. Between the scruff, guy liner and accent, I was clearly done for. And I just found out he’s a musician. Seriously, his wife is one lucky lady. Did I mention that his fans refer to themselves as hookers? Everything about this dude is amaze.

Paint Pastel Princess

If anyone gets the reference to the above title, I will love you forever.

I am loving that although it is Winter in most parts of the country, pretty Spring pastels have taken over the world of fashion. Dainty mint, peach, and lavenders are sprinkling all my favorite online boutiques and I am loving it. I imagine wearing these hues while eating brunch with a water view and sipping on a mimosa. Pretty specific, huh? I miss the outside world, OK?

Here are some of my favorites that I’ve stumbled on recently;

1. Christian Siriano heels; 2. Brighton tank; 3. Colorblock shift dress; 4. Unicorn necklace; 5. Mint crossbody; 6. Ombre sweater

{Adventures in Pinteresting}: Chambray + Maxi

The moment I saw this pin, I knew I had to replicate it! Not only did it look great, but also comfy and appropriate for my current broken-foot-in-cast situation. I decided to wear it to take my certification exam b/c it would keep me warm in the frigid testing room and also keep me comfortable since I was going to be there for 4 hours in a cast. It worked great and made me still look fashionable (which is important after laying on a couch for a week feeling sorry for yourself). I also liked how the tied chambray shirt worked as an alternative to a belt by helping to accentuate a waist. I think I’m going to use & abuse a lot of maxi dresses for the remaining few weeks I will be casted. 😉

MIAMI: Beauty Happy Hour

Although I can’t make it to this incredible event today at Aventura mall – you all definitely should take advantage! Head over to the Bloomie’s cosmetics department and participate in their beauty happy hour where you will be pampered by beauty professionals. That means that from 5-8pm you’ll be able to treat that mane of yours to complimentary braids, knots and curls from Blo Dry Bar Midtown and get your grub on with some sweets. Don’t forget to browse through the merchandise either because if you spend $100 or more you can pick up an exclusive makeup case in your choice of a fun, spring color!

But superficiality & retail therapy aside, Bloomingdales will be making a donation of $20,000 to Autism Speaks in honor of Florida Charity Day. As you all know, that is a cause near and dear to my heart, so make sure you head out there and show your support.
