harnessing my inner diva

This Saturday, my husband and I

mingle with beautiful people at

Russell Tanoue's "Beautiful" party at Pearl Ultra Lounge...

...then we pleasure ourselves with

great company at the one and only

"Pleasure Lounge"

yes, I was with the DJ

after all the "beauty" and "pleasuring",
we just want to go home : )

ps:

harness necklace (Bebe circa 2000)

I know right!? I fell in love all over again!!!

Especially because I'm all about statement

jewelry right now.

Shane bought this for me at the Sherman Oaks Bebe

when he was trying to woo me back in 2000.

When I pulled it out to wear he said:

"I bought you that? As a joke or for real?"

Sigh, men!

layering leggings

Even though it's 88 degrees today, I still wanted to layer fishnets over my tights.

Call me crazy, but I'll do anything for fashion.

shane's jeans

After much debate, I decided to eat my words and see what all the fuss was about with these so called "boyfriend" jeans. I finally asked my husband to try on one of his. Of course, with him being 6' 1", 200 lbs I looked more like a lumberjack (I'm not posting those pictures!). Not quite the look I was going for. So I had to go out and find some of my own. I guess that's why they call them "boyfriend" jeans and NOT "husband jeans"

Our Sunday morning tradition.

A walk to Diamond Head Grill with Vinny

a much needed water break, while seeking shade under a leaf

meeting friends

the best spicy ahi salad & some cool choppers

time to go home and see mr. puffin

i'll give you something to faint about!

I want, I need, I must

own this "Antoinette fainting sofa"
It would be the piece de la resistance of my room!!!

Can't you picture it nestled in the corner, just beneath my Audrey Hepburn & Marilyn?

making a statement

Did my part to stimulate the economy yesterday.

Inspired by the runway and the red carpet,

I found a delicious piece of neck candy.
