A little about me…
 I LOVE all things fashion & beauty related! Music also has a special place in my heart. I love being a mommy! My daughter is the best thing that has ever happened in my life. I love watching her grow. She is becoming quite a charming lil lady. She makes me very happy and proud!

A little about Gabriella…

Gabby is a very friendly little girl! She makes friends wherever she goes. She’s quite the social butterfly! Sometimes her calendar is filled with more events then my own! SMH. She likes to dress herself and walk around my heels at home. She never leaves the house without a purse or backpack. Her collection is slowly growing…Lately she has been asking me a baby brother or sister. (Good luck with that one….lol ) Overall she is a very happy little girl who brightens up my world!

Ready to head to the museum!

The Gabster and I recently headed to the NY Transit Museum. We both had a really great time! Gabby enjoyed going in and out of all the old train cars and buses. She also enjoyed pretending to drive them as well! We also attended a workshop they had. Gabby got to dig for artifacts found while the train system was being built! I myself enjoyed taking in all the history surrounding our transit system. I loved looking at how things have changed throughout the years.Check out pics from our visit below!

UNIQLO UNDERCOVER

Posted on March 21, 2012 | Leave a comment

Uniqlo recently launched their Uniqlo Undercover line for Women,Men and Children.

“UniqloUndercover: clothing for the families of today. It is the unity of UNIQLO‘s high-quality, basic clothing and the UNDERCOVER line of street-influenced, high-end fashion.”

This past Saturday Gabby and I attended an event hosted by Divalysscious Moms at the Uniqlo store on 53 and 5th avenue. Gabby got to build a bear and I got to check out the collection, or rather what was left of it.  I saw some really cute stuff, I can’t wait til they get more stuff in stock. Gabby and I then got to take some cool portraits. Check out the pics below!

Visit the UU website for more information on the collection!

MIRROR MIRROR movie FREE TICKETS!

Posted on March 20, 2012 | Leave a comment

“One of the most beloved stories of all time is coming to life in the motion picture event, Mirror Mirror.  A fresh and funny retelling of the Snow White legend, Mirror Mirror features breakout star Lily Collins (The Blind Side) as Snow White, a princess in exile, and Oscar®-winner Julia Roberts as the evil Queen who ruthlessly rules her captured kingdom. Seven courageous rebel dwarfs join forces with Snow White as she fights to reclaim her birthright and win her Prince in this magical adventure comedy filled with jealousy, romance and betrayal that will capture the hearts and imaginations of audiences the world over.  The film also stars Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as the Prince and Nathan Lane (The Birdcage) as the hapless and bungling servant to the Queen. “

I am beyond excited for this movie to come out. Mirror Mirror is a new rendition of the Classic Snow White tale. Who doesn’t love Snow White? (well,maybe the Evil Queen…lol  ) I can’t wait for this movie to hit theatres…however………………….
Why wait????

The Amazing Max And the Box Of Interesting Things

Posted on March 5, 2012 | Leave a comment

I recently took Gabby to see The Amazing Max And The Box Of Interesting Things at the Manhattan Movement & Arts Center theatre. We BOTH had an AMAZING time! Max Darwin is an awesome magician who will certainly entertain your entire family!

What I loved most about the show was the audience participation.I love how he chooses participants of all ages to come help him out on stage. His magic tricks were unbelievable! One of my favorites had to be when he made a woman’s ring disappear and re-appear  in an unexpected location. The telepathic piglet was pretty cool as well. Max was fun and funny at the same time!

We got to head backstage after the show to meet Max. He was very friendly and funny. So if you are looking for a show that the entire family will enjoy, then head on over to the MMAC to see The Amazing Max! He truly lives up to his name,AMAZING!
