E-Fest Hangover.

Man, did we have a blast last weekend!  It all started on Friday with E’s treats for her school celebration.
Saturday the birthday girl woke up at 6:30 am declaring “E-Fest has begun!”
And was promptly served her dream breakfast of bacon & donuts.

Then we spent the morning decorating the house.
And this twelve passenger van for the party of E’s dreams.  Pics to come next week!

The Funniest Girl I Know…

Is turning 7 tomorrow.  

She’s had “it” since she was born.

  Not kidding.. This kid’s got serious comedic chops.
 Not to mention a beautiful spirit.
We love you so much, E Burger… Tomorrow morning we will celebrate with bacon and donuts!

5 Day Hair.

Some of you may remember a few weeks ago, when I went to New York and got some beach waves courtesy of blow.  Did you know that they are the original blow dry bar?  I was super impressed with the stylists as well as the products.

True story-  My stylist asked me if she needed to wash my hair before she curled it and I said “Probably…  I am on day 2.”  She literally laughed at me and said “DAY 2????  Honey, I wash my hair once a week!”  As I went on to talk to other stylists, they all admit to washing their hair only 2x a week.  So I asked them how they get away with it and they (of course) told me dry shampoo.  Now, I am no stranger to dry shampoo, but I find myself using it on Day 2 and needing to wash my hair after that.  Then they introduced me to the blow pro faux dry shampoo..  I have been using it since my visit and just stocked up on two more bottles.  I am obsessed.  Now, I still will only go a maximum of three days with it, but man does it make my hair feel clean and voluminous!   
Another secret?  They also make this awesome shower cap that has a terry cloth inner lining that protects your hair from the moisture created with a regular shower cap.  Love it!

Thinking Pink.

Our master bathroom is waaaay overdue for a makeover.  Now the question is what to do, and how fast can I scrape together the money to do it.  The girls bathroom is also ready for a makeover, and I figured, why not do it all at once?  For some reason, I keep putting my room on hold and continue to focus on theirs… And I can’t help but think pink wallpaper.  By now, you all know, pink is my absolute favorite color…. I just don’t think I can resist.  Here are some contenders…

Fashion Friday: Neon Yellow + Nude.

A few readers asked me about the neon yellow and nude lace shirt that I wore to the party at Jonathan Adler’s studio this summer.  It’s from AT’s Spring Collection.  While they don’t have the neon yellow in stock any more, they do have a rose version, which is pretty damn cute.  Anywho.. I am still not off of my neon yellow and nude kick….
Summer is coming to a close, but it is not a reason to ditch this delicious duo.
