Pretty Pink Things

By now I’m sure you all know how much I love the color pink. Aside from green, it is my most favorite color. Unfortunately, my husband does not always share my sentiment. However, we have recently made some fun pink purchases (aside from my kick ass cuckoo clock) that I felt like sharing with you here just because!

That’s right. A hot pink chef’s knife. The hubs wanted to reward my recent cooking stint by buying me a knife he knew I would be excited to use: a pink one. He stumbled on these colorful knives by Pure Komachi while browsing one of his favorite blogs, TheKitchn. Although I am light years away from being the next Bitchin Camero, fun tools definitely inspire to work harder. Who knows? Maybe I’ll blog about my next adventure in cooking 101. 😉

Also, excuse my workout gear. My workout face also came included with said outfit which is why I decided it was best to leave it out.

First off, I’d really like to express my gratitude for every one’s concern on Twitter when I mentioned that my baby girl, Gwen, had to have an emergency trip to the vet after she developed a cyst (what seemed like overnight) and then managed to pop it leaving a bloody, scary mess. The good news is that she is healthy and the cyst was not deemed malignant in any way, shape or form. Because I was worried that it developed because of her collar and her constant tugging and pulling while out on walks, I decided it would be best to get her a harness. I’m a big fan of Puppia harnesses, but am not always a fan of the prices. Luckily, I was able to find a similar style at Pet Supermarket over the weekend and it came in pink! I think she looks absolutely adorable and no longer chokes herself while being walked. I may be able to take her along to pet-friendly events now without fear of her hurting herself. Merry Christmas, Gwen!

Weekend Highlights

satIMG_0389

On Saturday, the hubs and I made it out to West Palm Beach for our friend, Joshua’s, annual holiday party. We got to hang out with our buddies and his two adorable sons, who were the life of the party. Plus, we got the most amazing party favors: fake moustaches! It really doesn’t get any better than that. Must make a mental note to pick some of these up for our next shindig – they were the biggest hit! And the perfect end to my night was making it home in time to see Muse perform their last song, Starlight, on SNL. They were amazing, as usual, and only made me covet a Florida tour date even more!

The rest of our weekend was spent doing errands and showing our family the house we may be living in come next year. Exciting stuff, people!

This will be a short week for me (thankfully) & I hope some of you were able to score some vacation days as well to spend with your loved ones. It’s almost Christmas time, everyone! And that means we are closer to it all being over!!! What a relief that will be. 😉

xoxo

Lovable Friday: Etsy edition!

I have this sick fascination with skulls – I just love them involved in basically everything. From fashion to accessories to home decor. You get the point. That’s why I fell in love with the Muertosfineskulls etsy store. They are made my Andy Fark, who swears repeatedly throughout the store that he is not an artist. I can’t say I agree. I hope to pick up this puppy or something similar for my future pink room.

Think Pink!

Now that we are in the process of applying for a loan (not fun) and scheduling a home inspection, the prospect of finally owning a home is starting to sink in. Although it is not official yet, I’m letting myself start gathering inspiration and start thinking of how I’d like to decorate the house. I can’t help myself – it’s so fun! Not to mention something I have been dreaming about for quite some time now. In order to minimize arguments, the hubs and I have decided to split the two extra bedrooms. The hubs takes one, I take one. We can decorate that room in whatever way we wish and then collaborate for the rest of the house. We decided almost instantaneously: the hubs would claim the office and I would tackle the guest room. Sorry guys, no baby room for a couple more years! 😉

I’ve always wanted to have a bright pink kitschy room. What better to house our guests (or ridiculously drunk friends that can’t drive home) than a bright, sunshine-y room that makes you smile? Absolutely nothing! These are some great inspiration pictures that I have collected that are helping me get my thoughts together on what I’d like to do:

I also just recently bought this flippin’ amazing cuckoo clock off my new favorite online store, PlasticLand:

How great would this look in my future room?? The best part is the price – I couldn’t believe it was only $15!! Made me a little more hopeful that I will be able to find hip alternatives to more high end decor items.

Happy Hump Day: Taylor Kitsch

normal_menshealth2007-4

Taylor Kitsch first caught my attention when he played one of the most beloved characters in Xmen, Gambit. Although I found the latest Xmen movie to be quite the bore, the eye candy throughout the movie was very very nice. Taylor is also on the small screen, where he portrays a high school football star on Friday Night Lights. You’ve probably also seen him in all sorts of catalogs strutting his hot stuff as a model in YM, Seventeen and even Abercrombie and Fitch! Yeah, I’d definitely suffer through a show all about football just to watch him run around (preferably without his shirt on). Let me know if you agree with me when you check out the photos after the jump. 😉
