Happy Novem-BURR

Checking in! I know I've been a very bad blogger. I've recently changed jobs so I'm just getting in the swing of the work schedule. I'm so loving Bow Ties right now. I've been wearing them with EVERYTHING!

Also I've been trying to build my portfolio as a stylist. So I have been working on TFP shoots. I'm excited to see where it will take me. I always like challenging myself. Check out this Baby Stroller carved from a Watermelon I did for a friend's baby shower. Tell me what you think! - ♥Dee

Monif C Holiday Collection

I love when a designer is consistent, year after year they showcase a collection to die for leaving you to yearn for every single item. Monif C's newest collection is no exception. She is consistent her quality is amazing and the fit of her dresses are to die for! I'm in love with every single piece from her new Holiday Collection! I think I would wear anything modeled by Denise Bidot or Fluvia Lacerda. Crossing my fingers for this sequin show-stopper.

Uggh! I love this one too...(ahh! screams from my bank acct)

My First "Normal" Weekend

When I say September has been the worst month of this year I mean it. Usually it's the best month as my birthday is the first celebration, but every weekend something crazy is happening. This weekend happened to be my first "normal" weekend. I went to the bar with my girls and met up with my BFF in the city. Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.

I ♥ Quotes

I can sit and read through quotes and inspirational messages all day long. In my phone I have notes and text messages of quotes and affirmations they help me through my day. I ran across two quotes by Stacey Charter. Amazingly I can't find any information on this wonderful woman. Here are two of my favorites.

“There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout:
This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.
When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.”

&

"Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different."

I love to post quotes like these on my Facebook page because you never know who may need to see something inspiring for the day. If you have any quotes you live by or positive affirmations please let me know!

Happy Fall 2011

If I lived in the UK

If I lived in the UK and H&M's BiB line was available to me. (BiB=Big is Beautiful) This is what I would buy! If I have any followers that live in the UK that would ship these to me of course I would pay for items and shipping. Email me @ pushingthecuttingedge@gmail.com.
