Pretty Pictures by @natureimagesALM

I love pretty things. Anything pretty always catches my attention... I'm such a girly girl!

For this Holiday season I decided I'm getting my sisters everything I would get myself. Lots of pretty, pink items that I know they will love as much as I do.

Some items I got for my amazing sisters are from Nature's Image's By Design! Anita, the photographer, has amazing work! She puts her photos on items such as compact mirrors or iphone cases, and also has prints available.

I got some awesome goodies from her for my two sisters! Two compact mirrors and an Iphone case!

They were packaged perfectly to insure no damage to the mirrors!

 




Aren't these just so pretty!

Gorgeous!

I love the colors of the flowers. They just make me smile. Anita's work is stunning and I am so happy I have these goodies to give as gifts this year.

Definitely check out Anita's site for some great holiday gifts!!

PhotoShoot Day!

We are on our way to a photoshoot today! Yep! So exciting I can't wait!

We (myself, my sister, and my mother) won a photoshoot! We will be shot as The Glamorous Family. How Fun! They are going to do our hair, makeup, and wardrobe. It should be so fun! I'm going to take a ton of photos (if I could) and will definitely let you know how it goes. 

We won this through Project Closet on facebook. I still can't believe it. Something so fun for us to do! Like our Christmas gift to each other (since money is so tight this year, we aren't doing actual gifts). This is the perfect little treat for us.

Will let you know how it goes! Wish us luck!!!

Tie Dye Today with @Shannastiedye

Tie Dying is ridiculously awesome in my book.

I have dabbled in Tie Dying just for fun- and I wish I could do it and actually make fun designs like Shanna. When I tie dye it tends to just get all over the place- and not in any design....


Shanna's Tie Dye is the complete opposite of my tie dying ways. Hers looks awesome LOL.

Ready to ship 2T tie dye heart sun dress

How pretty is that?

I think her work is just gorgeous to look at. I love the color combinations she puts together. They make me smile. It just looks "happy". If that makes any sense to you? It does to me, I swear.

Her work is perfect for kids- adults - everyone really.

Go check out her shop for more awesome Tie Dye work!


Rockin' Article from @StamAdvocate !! #SoundCity #Music #Entertainment

So excited! My father, Frank D'Andrea, was in the Stamford Advocate today for his business
Sound City Music & Entertainment!

I am just so proud of him. He started his own business about 5 or 6 years ago and truly loves what he does. You don't see many people fully love what they do anymore. He is happiest when he is either in his rehearsal studio or out on a gig playing (not including being with his awesome family of course, haha).

This article ROCKS! Such great press for his company (an entertainment studio in Stamford,CT. If you're local, check it out!)

Flowery Fun with @KoloheGurlJewel

I love Kolohe Gurl Jewelry.

My friend Renee creates these gorgeous, simple, elegant jewels that are simply stunning. Her work is just flawless in my eyes.

I absolutely LOVE her ankle cuffs. I think they are so unique and think they are perfect for the summer.


Yes, I know it isn't summer right now.. but I'm sick of the cold. I want to think of the gorgeous summer months... warmth, sun. ah.

Okay.. so Renee also has jewelry perfect for all year round. Her arm cuffs are just as fabulous as her ankle cuffs.

Perfect gift for the summer lover in us all. These make me smile during the cold winter months... jewelry always brightens someones day! With the holidays right around the corner, hope you all put this on your wish list! Here's Kolohe Gurl's website so you could look around at Renee's awesome work!
