Charlotte Ronson RTW Fall 2014

I have always been a huge fan of Charlotte Ronson, and I love this new collection. I am kind of addicted to black on black clothes, I think it's the New Yorker in me. This dark yet romantic collection its just so chic and classic, not to mention slimming. She pairs  classic silhouettes with lace, sheers, and leather. I would love to have any of these in my closet for the fall season.

New York Fashion Week



"Every year the woman of New York leave the past behind and look forward to the future... this is known as Fashion Week" - Carrie Bradshaw Sex And The City

Today starts fashion week here in NY, although I am an hour north of the city I will not be able to make it down there all week due to this crazy weather we have been having. But no worries I will still be covering some of my favorite shows with my favorite picks.  Enjoy !

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

I was over a friends house for a birthday and she served these amazing crostini's. Being that I have been gluten free for a year and a half I of course had to substitute the bread with Rudi's Gluten Free  bread. She sent me the basic recipe which I of course changed up a little to make it my own. I have never had Brussels Sprouts before and after trying them with this recipe, I plan on trying to use them with others.

Birth Announcements : Minted.com Review



To me there is nothing better then receiving cards & invitations via snail mail. I am an art geek so I love seeing beautiful designs and creativity while opening the envelope. I order a lot of photo books, stationary, cards and invitations online. I check out all the big name websites to see what would work best for my project.

This time I'm looking for birth announcements for a client of my events & photography business. She recently just had beautiful twin boys, Landon Michael and Brayden Kade in December. I stopped by last week and tried to grab some shots but they didn't seem to like it too much lol.

I checked out the Birth announcements on Minted.com. Their website is really easy to navigate and their menu bars are clearly laid out. I found a few announcements that I loved. There were over 500 designs for baby announcements. Their quality is amazing and I have been pleased with the finished product . There is one thing that bothers me, on a few of the designs, the designer would need to send you a proof for you, instead like most you are able to preview as you personalize. Other then that I love them! Check out some of the announcements I picked out for my client.
