It's Friday!


Don't get me wrong, I love my kiddos, but when it's Fashion Week of Rochester and I could be sitting in a VIP seat at the fashion show at Culver Road Armory and hobknobbing with Rochester's finest at the after party at TRATA, let's just say it makes it tough to sit at my kitchen table in my jammies because I couldn't find a babysitter.  How's that for a run-on sentence?  You know what, I don't even care. 

Since I'm not out being fabulous but facebooking instead, I figured I might as well do the outfit post I've been putting off since Sunday.  Hey, I've been working on my Fall Trend Watch for Rochester A-List all week.  Make sure you check it out.

Well without further ado, some fall fashion from yours truly.  #OOTDLS (Outfit of the Day Last Sunday) featuring top and sweater from Anthropologie, Fabianelli boots, a.n.a. jeans via JCPenney, J.CREW necklace via ebay, Michael Kors watch and earrings from a boutique in St. Augustine whose name is escaping me.  Enjoy! 

This is my idea of "getting creative" with my hair.
I tied it in a knot and secured it with two bobby pins.
I'm not sure why I look like a linebacker.
My shoulders are 6 ft wide I swear.
Those are Fabianelli boots from Marshall's.
By far my best purchase in years - soft Italian leather...
They are like wearing slippers! Love, love, love!
This is me telling my husband to get over here
and take my picture already because the baby is crying.
I'm mostly a nice wife I swear. 
And the awkward photo shoot begins...
This is me trying something different...
Like the head tilt and hand on hip pose...
Oh wait...
Maybe I should just stand here...
With my hands in my pockets...
In crappy lighting...
Outside my garage...

Maybe I should just start taking pictures of my clothes on hangers... or laid out neatly on my bed...

Something to think about.

In the meantime, I'll give you something to think about:  what's your favorite thing about fall?  Are you psyched for layering weather?  I'm psyched for hot apple cider, riding boots, and pumpkin EVERYTHING.  

Okay kids, I'm peacing out - have family photos in the morning and have no idea what any of us are wearing... funny considering what I do... #irony

Nigh night lovelies!

How Do You Mu?

Last night I went to TRATA for the launch party of Mu, LiDestri's latest line of cafe-inspired cocktails.  Coffee break meets happy hour?  Yes, please! I got to taste all three flavors:  Vanilla Latte, Coco Cappucino, and Chocolate Chai - all were DE-LICIOUS!  I even had a Mu-tini complete with marshmallow garnish.   Yum-o!  Rochester A-List did a phenomenal job with the event, there was schmoozing and boozing (two of my favorite things!)  and who doesn't love a swag bag?

Truffles, Pink Limoncello, coasters, coupons, recipes, a magnet and
postcards (one of which says "I would like an iced coco cappuccino with a side of Bradley Cooper")
Love that!

Since outfit posts are a big hit around here, I tried to get a photo for you.  However, this is what happened when I attempted to have my mother (who was babysitting) take an outfit photo for the blog:
Tada!

So I decided to take a picture of myself in the car instead...

But, all I could get was my head...

You can see the full look here, where I'm posing with the models who were dressed up as the various Mu cocktail flavors.  Aren't they gorgeous?!

I'm wearing Guess shoes, a.n.a jeans via JCPenney, Express tank,
Forever 21 blouse, H&M necklace, and Banana Republic earrings.

It was a wonderful night, spent chatting with great people, and getting to be one of the first to try some fabulous new cocktails.  Mu will definitely be making an appearance the next time I host a Mom's Night Out.  Looks like they landed a new customer!

Cheers!

xoxo
