Hey everybody! I’m loving these Pink Sheep Heiress outfits! This New York city winter has been all over the place and enjoyed a warm day recently. Ballerina skirts are not just for your childhood ballet days. This skirt and this purple leather jacket from the Spring 2016 Pink Sheep Heiress collection are just fabulous. Purple is one of my favorite colors so I really enjoyed wearing it.

I also just loved this striped shirt and wear-all-the-time zipper shorts from Pink Sheep Heiress. I paired them with vintage Prada heels (one of the best buys I’ve ever made). And guess what? We’re giving away a pair of these zipper shorts and cool skull print sunglasses! Simply enter to win here and the winner will be announced March 5th.

Speaking Of Hot Sauce

preview-red

Speaking of hot sauce, and I mean in reference to Beyoncé’s new powerful video Formation, I make some mean hot wings. And, well it’s Superbowl time. I’m still kind of a sore loser as my Patriots didn’t make the cut but I’m excited at the prospect of Cam Newton winning to shut down the nay-sayers. Anyway, Happy Superbowl Sunday y’all! I never really use a recipe for hot wings (always eye-ball it) but this is a good estimate and yes, people always LOVE my wings!

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

10 chicken wings

vegetable oil for frying

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup hot sauce

black pepper to taste

pinch of garlic powder

Melt a lot of hot sauce with real unsalted butter in a small pot. Mix flour with salt, pepper, paprika and a pinch of garlic powder. Dredge the wings in buttermilk (if you have time, you can marinate them overnight in buttermilk) and then cover them in the flour mix. Fry in hot vegetable oil turning them to brown lightly on both sides. Drain them on a paper towel to soak up the extra oil. And then put the wings inside of the small pot with butter and hot sauce. Place on a plate and serve with blue cheese dressing and celery. Yummy! Enjoy.

Three Snow Boots for Winter 2016

CZbbpKZVAAEhh6Z.jpg-large

So, I’m snowed in like everyone else in the Northeast right now. Jonas is not exactly a blizzard here in New York but it’s definitely dumping a lot of snow on us. I mean, I can’t even see outside too well because of this snow. Anyway, this kind of weather calls for some great snow boots. And why not be cute while you stay warm this winter? Check out these boots below and even more winter accessories here.

Michelle Obama’s Narciso Rodriguez Dress at Last Night’s State of The Union Address

13eveningss-slide-ZVXC-facebookJumboSo, like it or not, Barack Obama is now in his last year of office and delivered his final State of The Union address last night. While you might debate about the politics, you must admit (again) that Michelle Obama is one of the fiercest first ladies we’ve ever had. I mean, she is a huge fashion force and well, did you see her marigold Narciso Rodriguez dress last night?

It’s the perfect color for a mid-winter pick me up and it is a really versatile dress. I mean, you could really wear that to an office meeting, church or even brunch.

The dress is basically sold out everywhere but check out similar Narciso Rodriguez dresses here.

Two Gorgeous Dresses for The Holiday Season

Happy Holidays everyone! I hope you’re feeling festive and winding down your work year to enjoy the Holiday. It’s that time of the year. Party after party. I found the perfect holiday dresses from Preen by Thornton Bregazzi and Proenza Schouler. They are fabulous for the season.

Marc Jacobs Fall/Winter Hot Pants

marc jacobs hot pantsBy now, you’ve probably heard that we are experiencing an extremely warm winter here in New York. It’s been about 65 degrees and I am praying that it stays that way! In honor of this beautiful weather, I decided to try those impractical-looking hot pants you’ve seen on the runway for the fall/winter? I first spotted them in Marc Jacob’s Fall 2013 fashion show (with the giant sun below) and thought they were fabulous but in that snow, I just didn’t see it happening.

Well, I love these Marc Jacobs hot pants and you can pair them with those see-through skirts to make a bold statement. Not for the faint of heart but absolutely fabulous.
