Xtabay Holiday Fashion Show

Posted on 7 Dec ’12

The show was such fun. The crowd was absolutely amazing and the girls looked stunning in their red lips and vintage attire. The show also raised $1200 for the Cascade AIDS Project, which is incredible. A special thank you to Liz Gross, owner of Xtabay, for making this short girl’s dream come true: I never thought I would have the pleasure of walking a runway show and now, I have! Just in case you weren’t able to make it to the show, you can still see us strut our stuff modeling the amazing vintage coats, cocktail dresses and gowns. I wanted to share a few of the wonderful photographs taken by my husband (edited by mio). You can view the entire album on my facebook page. First up, were coats… Next came…

Unwrapping…

Posted on 2 Oct ’12

September’s Birchbox theme was inspired by Fall Fashion Week. Twistband: While I really have no use for the twistband right now what with my pixie haircut, I can see why the Birchbox Team admires them so much. They don’t seem to tug on the hair the way elastics do. I’ve actually been thinking of growing my hair out so I guess this could come in handy. 21 Drops Aromatherapy Blend (In Focus): I believe aromatherapy can be extremely healing. I’ve used peppermint oil to help heal my migraines in the past. “Focus” has a combination of rosemary leaf oil, peppermint leaf oil and a touch of frankincense that can help aid you in your ability to concentrate. Color Club Polish (In Status Update): I’ve been wanting…

Warby Parker

Posted on 6 Sep ’12

My husband and I have been fans of Warby Parker for quite a few years now. It all started with a group of friends who were sick of unstylish frames that were outrageously overpriced. Not only are they making frames that are affordable and beautiful but Warby Parker is even a part of a Buy a Pair, Give a Pair program, meaning for each pair of glasses that they sell they give a pair to someone in need. If that’s not reason enough to buy from them, then I don’t know what is! Oh! And how about their stellar home try on program? You can select 5 pairs of glasses to be sent to your home so you can try them on and find which ones…

Week 31 {Project 365}

Posted on 6 Aug ’12

In this week’s 52, I’m wearing one of the gorgeous Dino e Lucia dresses I won in Honey Kennedy’s giveaway! It is slightly too big on me, but with a bit of tailoring, I know it will be absolutely perfect! The color and detailing is so glamorous. I can’t wait to wear it for the holidays. And now my week in photographs… Sunday (July 29th): Pancakes for breakfast! (gluten free, of course) Monday (July 30th): A few scattered flowers on a short but sweet walk. Tuesday (July 31st): Prepping tomatoes for chicken bruschetta. Wednesday (August 1st): Rolling dough for homemade gluten free tortillas. Thursday (August 2nd): Obviously my trip to Italy has made an impact. Friday (August 3rd): My husband nailing a jump shot while sporting the…

Unwrapping…

Posted on 8 Jun ’12

I’ve been contemplating for quite some time signing up for Birchbox. Well, I finally did and am so glad. I love experimenting with different products and I absolutely love mail so really it’s a win, win! Color Club Professional Nail Lacquer in Disco Nap: I was very excited about this sample. I love a beautiful, metallic nail color! I put it on as soon as I took it out of the box. Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm SPF 25+: While I like the idea of this product (a tinted balm, moisturizer, sunscreen, and treatment serum all-in-one) it just wasn’t for me. I’m a pasty girl, so most tinted products are just too yellow for my complexion. Stila Sparkle Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Curacoa: I usually…

Bride for a Day

Posted on 29 Feb ’12

On Sunday, I got to be a bride. No, I didn’t get married, but I got to be a model for Rocked, a Portland Bridal Event hosted by Portland Bride & Groom and The Nines. I wore a gorgeous 1950′s silk embroidered taffeta wedding gown with cinched waist, cascading train and boat neckline from Xtabay Bridal Salon, the same salon where I found my dress. I felt incredibly regal. The event took place on the 6th floor of the hotel. It was unbelievably gorgeous with views of the Courthouse and Pioneer Courthouse Square. Special thanks to Cory for being photographer/dress carrier for the day! I wouldn’t have made it through the day without you! Here are a few more snapshots of the event… Twitter / Facebook / Pinterest / Illustration
