The Last Faux Pas of 2009

4 January, 2010 Nelia

2009 is officially over! But not before JLo could squeeze into the last faux pas of the year! Human hair jacket? Check. Sheer-ish crystal-adorned bodysuit? Check. Camel toe? Check. Making news all over the world for your god-awful NYE outfit? Priceless.

Happy Holidays from Clive and I!

24 December, 2009 Nelia

It’s finally here! December 24th! After months and months of preparation, I am finally done Christmas shopping, decorating, baking, cooking, and all that jazz. Am now allowed to sit back and enjoy the holidays. Well, sort of, since I still have to work today…but starting tomorrow, I am officially on a mini-vacation!

 I hope you all are having an amazing holiday season, full of wonderful moments shared with loved ones. Hope your gifts are everything you wished for (or at least include a gift receipt)! And hope that this Christmas/Hanukkah/whatever brings you only happiness and no (or very little) stress! Thank you all for reading! And Happy Holidays!

PS. If you are braving the malls on Boxing Day…first of all, you are a very courageous person, and second of all…good luck!

Holidays 2009: Manly Gift Ideas

10 December, 2009 Nelia

manly gifts

Well, not manly as in macho, but manly as in for men. Still wondering what to give your guy-friend/boyfriend/father/brother (hopefully not all-in-one, because that would be just creepy)? Fret not, there’s still plenty of time left! Most men still believe that shopping on Christmas eve is a perfectly acceptable tactic, so you’re already ahead!

What do guys like? Other than sports, beer, and babes? Well, it really depends, but I think most guys would not be able to resist a cool comic book t-shirt, an awesome pair of shades or even snowboarding goggles, and of course some home-made freshly baked cookies (with love as the main ingredient…cheesy enough for ya?). Hopefully this post will give you some ideas as to what’s available out there, or at least will give you some ideas and steer you in a direction of a potential gift. And no, I didn’t include anything I already got for the guys in my life. They are way too nosy not to peek.

Holidays 2009: Cute Gift Ideas

9 December, 2009 Nelia

gift ideas

I know I’ve been MIA lately, and it’s prime blogging season, what with the shopping frenzy, amazing pre-fall collections, and sales happening practically everywhere! But since blogging is not my main job, and is more of a hobby or a passion, other passions of mine took center stage as of late. Things such as baking and gluttonous devouring of cookies, lusting over Chanel purses and other goodies while Christmas shopping,  slothing on the couch wrapped in a blanket watching my favorite holiday movies…What’s that you say? Those are sins, not passions? Tomayto-Tomahto. So with that in mind, posting will continue at this slowed down eggnoggy rate until the holidays are behind our expanded behinds (I am not the only one eating all those sugar cookies, am I?).

I’m sure most of you are still smack dab in the middle of Christmas shopping, and if you haven’t checked out Urban Outfitters and www.FredFlare.com, then you really should! So many cute, weird, quirky items! From adorable earrings to Russian Doll measuring cups – you can find a perfect gift or a stocking stuffer for that special person on your list! Happy Shopping, lovelies!

Holidays 2009: Purple Reign

25 November, 2009 Nelia

cate the great

Two beautiful women, two very different dresses, one very similar color. Cate wowed the New York crowd in an Armani Privé dress, looking both elegant and regal as always, while Portman wore her Jason Wu frock to Brothers premiere. Can’t play favorites with these two, all I know is that I am looking for a purple dress after work today. I think this shade of purple would be a fab choice for the holiday parties this year! It’s not exactly traditional, but it looks gorgeous on blondes and brunettes alike, plus you’ll definitely stand out in a sea of red, black and green. If only I could afford a Privé dress! But that’s another story.
