i'm seriously so bad at this lately...

So it's been a long while since I blogged. Again. And I'm so sorry. Again. But I'm going to try very hard to keep up with it. Here's some stuff that's happened in my life since I last posted...

Free Black Eyed Peas concert in Central Park

Homemade rainbow birthday cupcakes (tutorial soon!)

Birthday drinks at a speakeasy--vodka tonic's in tea cups? yes please!

Fist-pumping with Pauly D

Hanging out with Perez

Interesting sights at the Halloween Parade

Crossing a taping of Conan off the Bucket List 

Met Mindy Kaling at her book signing. We're obvi going to be BFFs. 

Harry Potter on B'Way. [Fantastic. If you can, see it before he leaves the end of December.]

Spent an ungodly amount of time in Central Park. It's just so pretty during the fall... 

First time at the Highline. Loves it.

Checked out the rink at Bryant Park.

diane von furstenberg

Another contender for gold medal at this seasons Fashion Olympics is Diane von Furstenberg. This collection is so much fun and so incredibly wonderful, I am kind of at a loss for words. The pieces are young and fresh, yet chic and appropriate for a variety of ages. The fabrics and prints are unique and would mix well with a variety of wardrobes. This is another collection I want to live in. Diane von Furstenberg continues to prove why she has lasted so long in this industry, and continues to be one of the most beloved designers of all time. 

See more after the jump!

a very gaga new year

Along with the rest of the world, I am still all about Lady Gaga. 

With the re-release of her smash album "The Fame," which now contains a second disc titled "The Fame Monster," she has solidified her place in pop music, as well as the fashion industry. I can't get enough of her quirky looks and techno beats, and I'm not the only one!

This artist from Beijing crafted Barbies to recreate some of her already iconic looks:

LOVE those tiny little Barbie versions of the Alexander McQueen shoes!! Where were those when I was younger?

I also noticed it in the department store windows while I was in NYC in December. These windows at Bergdorf Goodman were inspired by Lewis Carroll, but I couldn't help but see some of Gaga's influence in there, too.

And while Juicy Couture is not my personal favorite place to shop, I thought their 5th Ave store had fabulous windows for the holidays, that had a hint of Gaga's prowress thrown in.

And with Alexander McQueen outfitting her latest video, "Bad Romance," how could it be anything less than perfection?

Here's wishing you a very inspired New Year, Gaga or otherwise! :)
