On the Catwalk...@ Rockwell

Friday night was our Best Man's birthday. We celebrated with about 100 of his closest friends at Rockwell in Hollywood. It's always fun to see everyone, but I was also excited to wear my new Elizabeth & James blazer with my new Rebecca Taylor leopard tank. Thanks to a small collection of Neiman's gift cards I had acquired, these purchases came out to be better then a "buy one get one free" deal.

The quality of these two pics are not great and my head is kind of chopped off in one, but I still love them because one of my besties decided to give me a little photoshoot :)

Not in a very chatty mood today, it's Monday, it's raining, I'd rather be home watching re-runs of The O.C. and the original 90210.....

On the Catwalk...Engagement Style

Saturday night was one of my very best friend's engagement party. She was one of my bridesmaids and we've known each other for YEARS. Bonus, her fiance is also one of my good friends and the hubs and him have a little bromance going on.
It was a gorgeous SoCal night and everything was so beautiful. Forgive me for the lack of scenery pictures. Sky high heels, champagne and grass do not work with me very well. I tried to stay in one area as long as possible and I'm really proud of myself for not falling down once.
We had a fabulous night with close friends, dancing, toasting and celebrating. So happy for the beautiful couple, can't wait for the wedding!

On the Catwalk....Company Gala

Saturday night was my company's 20th Anniversary Gala. It was a great event, the venue was beautiful and the planning committee really did a fabulous job. There were over 500 people in attendence and it's always nice to see everyone dressed up and outside of work.
The whole night flew by very quickly, but hubs my wonderful photographer did manage to take a few quick pics of my outfit.

Fashion's Night Out, LA Part 2

Hi everyone! It has been ages since my last post I know. Before I get into my night at the DVF Fshion's Night Out event, check out the first half of my night on Fashion Face!

So after dragging the hubs around Beverly Center for a few hours and sitting through a fashion show (thank you baby), we headed over to Melrose, to check out the DVF event.

Quite a few people there and more arriving throughout the night. They had a bar set up with Champagne, White wine, water, cupcakes and little appetizers. One of the best food spreads we'd seen all night.

Me sipping Champagne...yes out of a pink can with a pink straw, so cute

Pretty stylish crowd as expected, the sales associates were not as friendly as they normally are but I'm sure they were pretty tired from smiling and greeting all night long.

I was really hoping to buy something, since the invite said there would be a gift with purchase. I was totally disappointed to find out the gift was a DVF eye mask. Sorry but while I appreciate designer goods, I could buy an eye mask from Target for $2.99. If I'm spending over $300, I'd like something a little more fab to keep as a memento of Fashion's Night Out.

Overall, it was a fun and exhausting night. Strutting around in 6 inch heels can be quite a workout.
Hubby's reward for putting up with it all? Going to Hot Wings Cafe for a very late dinner :)

Special thanks to Erika for asking me to do a guest post on Fashion Face.

On the Catwalk...Bridal Shower

Saturday was one of my childhood friend's bridal showers. It was a boiling hot SoCal day and the last thing I wanted to do was get dressed up. But I managed to wear something somewhat airy to prevent fainting on a hot August day.

Short post today, sorry guys. I hurt my knee and the thought of not being able to wear 5 inch stilettos this weekend makes me want to cry.

On the Catwalk....Beach Style

Every summer since I was born has been spent down in the La Jolla Shores. It is really my favorite place in the world and I cry every time we leave. Over 20 years of family memories can do that to you. We just got back and I miss it already. I packed very little, but still managed to mix things up and make it work. Take a look...

DVF Fall Fashion

I love DVF. Season after season she rarely disappoints me. Specifically Fall is always a big hit. The vibrant and rich colors always add some sparkle to what can be a gloomy and grab time of the year. Here are some new Fall pieces that caught my eye.

"Julian" Wrap Dress in Brambles Beet print
Photobucket
Every girl should own at least one DVF wrap dress. In my opinion, they are a wardrobe staple that can be worn for years to come. A wrap dress can be dressed up or down with the right shoes and accessories. A Bonus, I think a wrap dress universally looks good on every body type.

"Heirloom Arturo" Leather Jacket
Photobucket
I can almost feel how yummy and rich this leather must be like. Leave it to DVF to take a military style and give it a feminine twist. I love that it is form fitting and the details are amazing. The brass buttons, double zipper, pockets, stitching...perfection.

"Gunita" printed mini skirt
Photobucket
This skirt looks so fun and I love the colors. It would never look good on me, but I still think it's beautiful. I really like how it's peeking out from under the loose black sweater. Gives it a casual fun feel.

"Tabalah" in Decofly print
Photobucket
I love the Tabalah style that DVF has been bringing back for the past few seasons. I have one from Spring '09, scene here. Again the colors and the print are beautiful. The blues and greens compliment each other perfectly. I'm trying to stay away from blue and green DVF dresses, becasue I own four of them already. Maybe if this one goes on sale, I'll make it five :)

I'm off to La Jolla for 5 relaxing days at the beach. I can't wait to just be there already! Will try my best to post outfits while I'm there, but I may have to wait until I get back next week.

Happy Friday!
