Wow, I know it has been months since my last post; I have been procrastinating posting, waiting until my life seems to be interesting enough to blog about. But then I realize I should probably get used to blogging often if I want people to actually read it. Hmm. So now it is fall, almost winter, and the weather is inspiring all kinds of warm, festive, things, like baking nonstop and drinking a lot of apple cider. Thanksgiving is a mere 3 days away, and I'm cooking up a storm this year! hmm, I wonder what i should wear for the cozy holiday; a fluffy, cashmere wrap around cardigan, or some kind of pretty ensemble complete with jewels for accessories? (Neither of which I have, by the way, so I might have to improvise a bit since I'm on a major budget.) Anyway, so matter what I wear, this Thursday will be an amazing day with family and friends and food.
To start off this festive holiday season, I have a fresh new haircut! I really like it, its short (it's short for me, considering I've had hair half-way down my back for years, and now its at my shoulders) and easy and perfect for the upcoming winter months. I've posted a few pictures of Hanneli Mustaparta, the wonderful model/ photographer/ blogger, whose picture I brought to the hairdresser as a model for what I wanted. She has really great taste, and I admire that she's not afraid to take risks with her clothes. Not to mention she's a great photographer. Anyway, check out some her pictures I've posted. Her blog is hanneli.com.
This season I will also be swearing by Chanel nail polish in Dragon-the dark, seductive red is the perfect color for the winter holidays (among those winter holidays is my birthday, FYI. 23, here I come!). The red is so chic and classic, I can wear it all the time with anything. It's nostalgic and timeless at the same time, and its sophistication and glamour reminds me of the 6 months I spent in Paris when I was in college. I keep thinking about Paris these days, I feel like it is calling my name. It's such an idyllic and passionate place, one of my favorite places in the world. All the pictures I've posted of Paris were taken by me. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season!
