Well I am still in Vegas…I have decided to take a holiday from blogging because as you read this I am more than likely either completely exhausted, completely hung over, or still drunk. HAHAHA

So today I declare I have Gone Fishing and be back with bells on tomorrow!!

I hope you all had a great weekend!!
xoxo

PS. Please don’t tell me details about SITC BUT definitely let me know if you liked it!!

Well I am in Vegas and because of this I am the only woman in America who has yet to see the beloved Sequel. I am hoping some of my friends will want to see it a second time so when I return i don’t have to go alone

Keeping with my Sex in the City themed posts this week and considering it’s Friday (and a holiday weekend at that) I found some cocktail recipes I thought sounded interesting and yummy. If you are having a SITC party or going with your g/f’s to see the movie here are some you may want to try!

Pear and Elderflower Sangria

Combine:

*Canton Ginger Liqueur
*St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur
*Cointreau

Steep the above ingredients with:

*Fresh Asian pears
*White cranberry juice
*Chilean Savigon Blac (Michael says you could also go with Pinot Grigio instead)

Steep for 3 days minimum. Serve in Bordeaux glass and garnish with fresh Asian pears, blackberries, raspberries and a mint crown.

A SITC outfit dedication wouldn’t be complete without the infamous tutu…a skirt only Carrie Bradshaw could pull off during the daylight hours.

I have only worn this skirt out at night and while I was getting looks walking around in broad daylight in it, I have to say I still felt glamorous!

Mine is a bit edgier with the studded detail around the waistline but softening it up with feminine shoes and purse makes it work.

Such a “Welcome to NYC” moment

This outfit was so sentimental they even revived it for the first movie

For my Second Carrie look I am channeling the outfit that kicked off the first movie with a bang. The Dior Shoe that started the gladiator and the bootie trend had me at hello. Since then I have been obsessed with mixing edgy accessories and feminine pieces.

This dress was a gift from a friend who’s too short to fit into it (lucky me!) I love how bright it is and the pattern is the perfect backdrop for gladiators and a chunky belt.

In honor of the release of our beloved sequel (finally!!) I have decided to do the rest of my posts this week dedicated to Sex and the City.

I am sure SITC means as much to many of you as it does to me. So many times I sought comfort in watching the girls go through similar situations and making it through. How many times have you caught yourself thinking “What would Carrie do?”

For my outfits I am using all things I already have in my closet and putting together my own version of some of Carrie’s looks…

My first outfit is from the episode Boy, Girl, Boy, Girl when Carrie ends up at a party playing spin the bottle with a group of bi-sexual couples.

{Dress- American Apparel (also seen here), Flower – H&M, Bag – Coach, Boots – Report, Ring – Forever 21}

She meets Alanis Morrissette in the kitchen only to later end up making out with her when the bottle lands on her…

The flower phase she went through that season was so much fun!
