back track

I figured I should post the bachelorette photos before I post the honeymoon photos or else I would completely forget about them. Us ladies headed out to Palm Desert for the weekend. We stayed at the JW Marriott out there. Ive been going there with my family as since I was little, I always remember all the crazy bachelorette ladies in the pool. So it must have been ingrained in me to go for my bachelorette. We drove out on a Friday afternoon and made a couple stops at the thrift stores. When we got to the hotel we found out we had this crazy, huge room and started drinking, of course. Once another one of my girlfriends came we headed over to the Ace. Saturday, we actually got up pretty early to stake some spots at the pool. I have never been surrounded by so many beefy men, but it ended up being a pretty chill afternoon. That night we headed out to sushi, took the boat back to the lobby and went to the club where I proceeded to dance to every top 40 hit on the stage, and the go-go box. It ended up being a wild and crazy night, as it should. I just got back from Palm Springs where I attended another bachelorette party. I'm in my friends wedding in a couple weeks. It starting all over again!

the sunset strip

I'm back from Aruba! And I'm a married woman! Before I get any wedding or honeymoon photos up, here's a shoot Kelley and I did for SGC NY last month. It was a tough, tough job. We had to run around the sunset strip playing pinball, jump on hotel beds, eat pizza, dance around Kibitz Room and take shots of whiskey!? What more did they want from us? We have a very hard life. The video of us in action is at the bottom.

Alright, not gonna be around for awhile so here's a little bit of what's going on..

A) Free People. This is pretty much what I'm going through right now. Limbo. I've always hated that word since I went to Catholic School (ahem limbo equals purgatory). On a brighter note I always know when I am in a state of change. They have always been extremely scary yet fantastically beautiful times in my life. And even when I know how stressed out I was, I can look back on that time and love the memories. I'm going through it right now.
Free People: Saturday DO

B) Jason and "his men" went on their bachelor party this past weekend in lovely Las Vegas. I worked extreme hours both Friday and Saturday and had a rad shoot Saturday continuing on til Sunday. "The men" got caught up in horrible traffic Sunday, and I had this urging to go see a movie by myself. I hadn't done that in 8 years. I poured myself a little red wine in a water bottle and went to see Beginners. What a beautiful movie. Some of it is taped in Silverlake which I love...the dog park, Akbar, driving along Sunset Junction. And the story tugged at my heart strings while still being funny. I took myself out on a date. And belted out country music on the drive home. It was great. Beginners Trailer


C)I usually check out fashion blogs but I came across this blog a couple months ago and I've been addicted. I've only been to Georgia, Florida and Austin, Texas but I've always been enchanted by the south...especially Charleston. I think this lovely gal's blog is great...it makes me want to move there and just sit on porches, drink wine and watch the sun set. I think I may need drive there soon
Everyday Musings


D) Ahhh...bachelor parties. Speaking of which, I had my own extravaganza two weekends ago in Palm Springs. Once we get the polaroids scanned I'll post. All I have to say is I have a great group of girls in my life. A bunch of brunettes! (and one Aussie blonde who is arriving this week) Here's a preview...

E) Finally, Jason had showing last weekend at Teddy's. Here's a few photos from the night...from the ending to the beginnning. Half I have to give credit to Billy Garner for. Fun night, went by way too quickly.
