Styled by Tori Spelling

Hi Babes,
     Sorry I've been away for so long. I've been super busy with a new full time job and pretty much life. I'll be playing catch up soon enough though. But I wanted to take a few moments out to share my excitement on this new line of create your own jewelry by Tory Spelling at Joann's fabric store. When ever I can I like to create, re-create, and fix anything that has to do with jewelry. I shop everywhere including the thrift store, the flea market and my mothers closet, but one of my favorite places is Joann's Fabric. So when I came across this new line of create your own jewelry it felt like Christmas morning for me!
      I've been watching Tori Spelling for a while now (aside from 90210) on 2 of her reality series Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood and Tori & Dean: sTORibook weddings. I feel she is extremely talented, crafty and has an awesome creative style when it comes to parties and more. I remember on one of her episodes from Home Sweet Hollywood talk about a jewelry line but I thought to myself she already came out with a line she has on HSN, little did I know.
      To me what's even more exciting is the savings. Aside from the fact that this line allows you to be creative and style the jewelry how you like, the pricing on every piece is really affordable and even more if you have a 40% off coupon which I get 4 on a weekly bases since I'm also a couponer. Below are some picture of what you can find in store, I apologize in advance they are not the best quality since I took them with my phone. I hope to show you all how I styled the pieces I purchased on my fashion blog. 

A look book to show you different ideas how to create your pieces.

 The other end cap.

 I purchased this gorgeous chunky chain link necklace.

 I purchased this long triple chain necklace.

 I purchased these which I will turn into earrings.

 

 This is what I will attach to the triple chain necklace to complete the look I want. 

And this is how I wore the chunky chain link necklace. I'm going to re-style it so it looks more like a choker or something.

Hope you all enjoyed!

My baby turns 2!

 My beautiful son turned 2 this week. Its so hard to believe that he is 2 already. It seems like just yesterday he was being placed in my arms for the 1st time. We started the day off ruff, he woke up with an ant bite that got infected on his ankle and ended up at the pediatricians office. She prescribed strong antibiotics and told me it was the 4th case of an infected ant bite she saw that day. No biggy, we ended the night on some what of a good note. We took him to The Red Elephant Pizza and Grill, its a very kid friendly restaurant, the food was OK, but he had lots of fun! Enjoy.

He was playing with all the sugar packets.

She sleep through most of it all.

 I pretty much kissed him every chance I got.

 Our 1st tantrum there.

 I let him play with my straw and water.

Yeah! Elephant ear.

 It was way too funny and too cute trying to see him blow out the candles. 

 He kept blowing up his nose, lol.

I helped him blow out the candles.

 Since we were pretty much the only customers there we let him run around and play. 

She finally decided to join the party.

 We took the party home.

And sang him Happy Birthday.

 These were his chucks when he was a baby.

And ended the night on some what of a good note, with a tantrum, they don't call them the terrible two's for nothing.

Hello everyone!!!

          I apologize for my absence Ive been working out like a mad women and end up catching a cold from Vince that decided to share it with not just me but with Vale and Joel. So we have been home sick for a few weeks now. I'm finally starting to feel better and extremely anxious to get back to the gym. Ive been working on a food diary to be posted on a later date and I'm trying to figure out how to take with me to the gym my p90x work outs.

          In the mean time I've been trying to rest, drinking plenty of fluids, taking my vitamins, watching lots of movies and catching up on some T.V shows.
