This weekend was fabulous. We started off Friday night with an incredible birthday dinner at Fleming Steakhouse in West Hartford, CT for our friend Jonathan. It was phenomenal from the floating orchid center pieces to the incredible drink menu. My favorite part was roasting the guest of honor. It was a very fun twist to a fabulous party.

Hope everyone has a fabulous Valentine’s Day. Tonight I am going to make a fabulous dinner (I am avoiding restaurants on V-day due to obvious reasons) and just enjoy a night in with some great food & wine.

I am very excited about this weekend because my hubby & I are starting to look at houses. Our condo is feeling quite snug lately so we are hoping to find our first house within the next 6-8 months. My Friday is off to a good start.

Glitter & Shine

Shiny, pretty, and glittery is what this winter’s style is all about. From glitter details on platform shoes to subtle glitter blush, a little sparkle is appropriate just about anywhere.

This Week’s Stress-relievers

This week was very busy and stressful, mostly because I had a lot going on at work. In order to keep my balance, I am so happy that I have so much to be fortunate for in my life. These are the things that kept me from ripping my hair out all week.
