"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."

It's all for you today, mum

Hi gal pals and Happy Mother's Day to all you gorgeous mommas out there!! I hope you are all having as gorgeous Sunday weather whereever you are, as we are here. I wish I could take my mumsicle on a lovely little picnic. But she is with her baby today watching him pitch his heart out, and I know that is the best gift she could get. So I'll share her :)

I know you guys don't really want to hear all my mushy gushies about my mum, but since this is my blog after all, I reserve the right to be a tad selfish at times and share about personal life things. And since my mom is my number one fan, and probably my most loyal follower, it is only fair that she gets a little shout out on her day. So just bear with me :)

My rock- You are truly my hero and your strength amazes me every day. I have no idea how you handle everything that you do, and how you do it with such grace and poise. You have always been one of my best friends, and I value your opinion on everything in my life, whether it is about clothes, boys, academic decisions or friend dilemmas. Friends have come and gone in my life, but you are the consistent, stable force in my life that a girl desperately needs. I can always count on you to be behind me 100% and support any decision I make. You advise me on what you think is right, but you always give me the freedom to make the wrong choice and then you're there to help me fix it. You have always led by example on how to dress fashionably, but more importantly you showed me how to live a life of style. Because of you I know that style goes layers beyond the clothes, and I will always strive to live up to the classy example you have set. I pray that I will be half the woman and mother you are. You have given me a terrific example of how to balance family and work and I admire you so much for that. Just remember, I want you to be happy more than anything and I will support whatever makes you happy, just as you have done for me. Thanks for always being behind me and making me believe I can do anything. I love you mom.
Mom and me

I love you more than words can express, and I wouldn't be anywhere without you. People tell me more and more often that I remind them a lot of you. I only hope to be so lucky. Thanks for giving me life, and for making that life better than any little girl could ask for.

Bisous!

Puppy love

Hey dolls and a Happy belated Easter! I hope you are all sitting upright in your chairs right now and aren't slumped over in a candy-coma! But if you are, I encourage you to keep reading this post because I guarantee that the cuteness it contains will wake you right up! Don't worry, I'm not so conceited to think that pictures of moi would have that effect, but I feel fairly confident that the little guy I am about to show you will. 

I interrupt our regularly scheduled programming of sequins, stripes and polka dots to bring you the cutest look in fur you ever will see. And yes, this is a bit of photo overload, but it is so worth it- I promise!
Introducing the love of my life- Eli! I am a finally a puppy owner, ladies! I have always, always wanted a puppy and  now that I am finally living on my own, I was able to indulge that want and come home with this little guy! Roommate and I have both been talking about puppies, a lot lately and we had sort of decided that we were going to wait until 2012 to get one. But when we came across an ad in The Washington Post this weekend for silky terrier puppies in the area, we were in our car before we even knew what we were doing. I kept saying in my head that I was just going to look. Now, those of you know me personally will know that I am physically incapable of just "going to look" when it comes to animals. Show me the most covetable purse on this planet, and I'll be able to resist if I'm not looking to buy a purse right then, but show me this irresistible little face and I am putty. I melt, I swoon, I coo and inevitably I leave with a new friend. Which is exactly what happened this weekend. As soon as we walked in the room with the puppies and saw Eli and his brothers (wish I could have kept them all!) roommate goes "Please get one!" So I did! Now we are a happy little family of 5!
My two lb. baby boy!
He is a very sleepy little guy. So my dog.
But when he is ready to play, he is ready!
Cuddle bug.
Pup in a cup.
He is sooo teenie tiny, I worry I am going to squish him in my sleep!
So loved and spoiled by mama already!
 I can pretty much guarantee that you will be seeing pics of fur baby quite often, so I do hope you will love him as much as I do!!

Bisous!
