Smarty Pants

So, the other day in one of my classes, one of my students correctly answered a question without hesitation. I was so proud of him, so I said, "Wow!! You are such a SMARTY PANTS. Great Job!"

Brace yourself cause this is where it gets funny...
He then looked at me, then looked down at his pants and replied, "No, I have BLUE JEANS on!"

Oh goodness, its days like this that I LOVE. I think I laughed so hard my eyes teared.

Speaking of adorable, isn't this little boy one of the coolest looking kids you've ever seen? I mean he sure looks like a smarty pants to me.

Hope you have fantastic Friday!

Color me Coral.

Mandy Moore was hands down one of my best dressed at the Oscars this year. She looked elegant and timeless in her Monique Lhuillier gown. For me, the fabric seemed to almost melt into her skin leaving a breath of sparkle. Can you tell how much I love this dress?!

But ahhhh, that coral lip was equally as beautiful, not to mention youthful & F.U.N.! So inspired by Mandy, here are a few fabulous coral lipsticks...

Blues.

Happy Weekend! This week just seemed to drag and drag to me for some reason, but hey its the weekend now, and the sun is shining! So the saying goes..."something old, something new, something borrowed, something BLUE. I thought I'd share some things blue for your feet....namely, blue heels.

To me, these say, "Hello, I'm elegant and lady-like. I enjoy a good afternoon tea and tiny sandwiches."

Kate Spade, Didi
I'm kind of in love with these. They look like a party on your feet. I mean, how could you not want to bust a move at your wedding reception with these pretty ladies on?!

Chinese New Year.

Happy Chinese New Year! 2011 is the year of the Rabbit. To celebrate the new year, I decided to make homemade Wonton Soup. I crossed my fingers that it would turn out ok, but it was better than ok. It turned out super yummy. My mr. even went back for seconds!

Here's some photos of my cooking adventures....

May the new year bring you happiness & prosperity!

Pop Rock.

True Grit's Hailee Steinfeld rocked the SAG Awards in Prada. Being that I'm stuck in a blizzard struck Chicago, this bright horizontal dress is just what I need to perk up my day. Pops of color = youth + fun in my book.

Case closed.

BHLDN

It's the day we've been waiting for ladies. Ok, well, it's the day I've been waiting for atleast. The beloved store Anthropologie will launch their new wedding line, BHLDN, on Valentine's Day.
