I wanna look like this-

How amazing is that jacket, those shoes, but most of all those red socks! She is my ultimate inspiration.

These neutral colors look flawless together. I'd say its time to buy a little more grey.

J.Crew has done it again

You all know my weakness. I've blogged about it time and time again. I have an obsession with J.Crew. There I said it. I LOVE IT! Their style is simple chic and most of all classic. They have everything from handbags to headbands, wedding attire to children's shoes. It's a one stop shop if you ask me. Their stylists really know how to polish up any outfit. Their simple apparel always has that little something extra to it. Whether it be glitter, feathers, brooches, beads or oversized flowers, J.Crew is ready to dress you for any and all occasions. I am delighted about their 2009 catalog that recently came out. It was love at first sight....

Jason, Mom, Santa Claus-any of these will do.

slevedge chambray shirt. I've been wanting this little beauty for quite some time.

vintage matchstick cord. One in every color will do...

A great pair of weather boots. A MUST while living in frosty weather.

Every girl needs a top-notch cardigan. For those of you who are cold blooded like me, I'd wear one of these any month of the year!

Polaroid Frenzy

Thank you tartraz for blogging about this! I am mildly obsessed.

I wish so badly that polaroid would continue making film for these beloved cameras. Don't get me wrong, this new era of digital photography is easy, convenient and most of all genius, but there is something special about the speedy print of a polaroid picture. The white frame around the photo is a timeless classic. I cross my fingers and toes that this article will soon become reality! (for those of you not interested in reading it, some peeps are trying to keep polaroid film alive.) But for now, I am going to enjoy the new program above and digitally turn my photos into polaroid copycats.

I.G.F.

For the majority out there who don't know what I.G.F. stands for, let me tell you....it means "I'm Grateful For". Some friends and I made this up long ago and it has yet to go away. It's just a fun way for us to name what we've been grateful for! Lately I've been thinking about all the things I appreciate so much in my life. I really, truly, sincerely can say that I feel so incredibly blessed! I love days like this. I love feeling infinite love for those people in my life who are so dear to me. I'm a lucky girl. So let me let you in on a few "IGF's" in my life- IGF the people around me who make me the utmost happy. IGF days where I feel on top of the world. IGF great food. (I'm a taurus, we appreciate fine taste.) IGF laughter. IGF family. IGF Jason (you knew that one was coming.) IGF my little Danni who I get to spend time with everyday. IGF fall weather. IGF J.Crew (oopsies). IGF all the fun blogs that I adore. IGF photographs. Ugh, the list just goes on and on. I guess this is a great time to be thinking about the things that I am grateful for with Thanksgiving quickly approaching. What are some of your I.G.F's??? I would love to know!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the last month that I thought I'd share. Enjoy!

KID SISTER



On Wednesday, Jason and I made the voyage up to SLC to see this bombshell of a babe-Melisa Young, aka Kid Sister. Her style of music is a good blend of hip hop, rap, and electro. Man was her performance amazing! I can successfully say that for the first time in a very long while, I was able to stay up past midnight and dance the night away. If you haven't heard her music I suggest you get to it. Take a little listen here. Her album, Ultraviolet comes out Novemeber 17. I can't wait!

Happy Halloweenie

Last year on Halloween I looked like this-

This year I look like this-
Not the best week to have a laser treatment done on my face. Yikes! Jason and I were suppose to be 70 Rocker's together this year. Looks like I'm gonna be a zombie...no make-up necessary. :(

My little, bigger brother.

For those of you who do not know my little brother Alex, I highly suggest that you meet him sometime in your life. I've been thinking a lot about him today and how he is truly one of my very best friends. Lucky for me, he's my brother! He may not look it, but yes, he is 2 years younger then me. He's 6'5" and can grow a beard like it's no one's business. There are so many things that I love about this kid. Because I am in such a good mood right now, I will name a few:

1. Alex can quote movies better then anyone I know. We could probably carry on an entire conversation made up entirely of movie quotes.
2. He is an AMAZING musician. He plays the bass for a band called Miniature Tigers. If you haven't heard of them then you're missing out. Go here. Now.
3. Alex is incredibly intelligent. He buys me the best books for Christmas. He fortunate to be not only book smart but street smart too. He's really REALLY great to talk to.
4. He is a great traveler! The lucky boy has toured all over the country, visited Japan, and backpacked New Zealand for a few months.
5. He's a sports guy. He's plays, but mostly watches. :) He is very knowledgeable in this area.
6. Alex is very generous. He's there to give a helping hand whenever he can. He's a great friend. He loves everyone he meets and it's incredibly obvious when you get to know him.
7. Not only is he a talented musician, but he has great taste in music too! He is my go-to-guy when I need new tunes to listen too.
8. He hangs out with me when I visit home. I don't go home often enough but when I do, he's the person I am most excited to see. No one can make me laugh like him.
9. Alex is a movie expert. He likes a very wide range of movies. I trust his opinion when it comes to what I should see.
10. He loves his sister (me).

To sum it all up, Alex RULES. He is such an amazing person. He is everything you would want in a friend, and lucky for me, a brother.

Here are a few pictures of my lil' bro. Enjoy.


This picture is of me, Alex and my oldest brother Rick. Eric is missing in this picture.
