Tiny Bit of Sparkle: Boardwalk Empire

I never realized how fascinated I am by the Prohibition period until I started watching Boardwalk Empire.  Seeing the beginnings of Al Capone and other famous mobsters is so intriguing, I'm definitely thinking I need to find a good mobster book to read (any suggestions greatly appreciated!).  Most importantly though, I am especially loving the clothes from this period.  I think nothing is better than a sparkly headband so I think I would fit in quite well.  Check out a few of the outfits below... I had a bit of trouble finding too many pictures so if you haven't been watching Boardwalk Empire, I suggest you order HBO immediately so you can begin to enjoy the decadence and deceit as well!

What time period would you like to live in?

The Gossip is Back...

Now I do have to say, I was getting a little tired of Gossip Girl last season.  The stories seemed a bit tired and Serena was just getting down right annoying.  Last night, I thought I'd try it one last time and this season did not disappoint.  Not only were the new storylines intriuging, but the clothes were amazing and I just have to mention, Lily has my Vera Wang wedding china (and uses it like every episode) which makes me feel "oh so Park Avenue".

Here's a few of my favorite "moments" as our friend Rachel Zoe would say:

I am absolutely loving Kate Cassidy as Gossip Girl Juliet so much more than her snarky role on Melrose Place (glad that's over).  Can't wait to see what the rest of this season holds!

Head over to... Hello Splendor

Good morning! Finally I'm up early with a post (with a cup of hazelnut coffee of course). I am so excited this morning because Beth @ Hello Splendor was kind enough to include me in her "What Are You Watching?" post. I love reading Hello Splendor because Beth's truly shares herself and her life in sweet (and sometimes hilarious) ways and I love seeing her next adventure.
