- A local photographer (and now friend) stumbled across my blog and contacted me. I was lucky to have him take this set (details to come...) as well as talks about future collaborations, which I am very excited about!!!
- I won the electric blue "mesmerize" Essie nail polish on La-Mimi's website which I shall wear for the blog soon, as I just received it by post yesterday... Thank you, Mimi!
- I'm dying for gift cards to American Apparel and Topshop.... and for an H&m to open up in Miami.... gosssssh!
- The Erge tee that I am wearing is courtesy of Emily, who sent me a bundle of beautiful (and seriously comfortable) tees. The girls of the 90210 television series wear the line all of the time, I can see why! Check out more designs here.
- Follow my puppy, Sweety, on Twitter? lol... it all started as an inside joke when I made her account.. My Twitter is here.
- My fruit of the moment: Red Gala Apples!
Thanks for all of your comments on my Beauty Essentials post. I APPRECIATE and am happy to read all of your comments and feedback. Many thanks to the Supermelon as well for featuring Fashion Chalet! =]

I totally wished we had an H&M you would think since we live in a well known place we would have one.
You look absolutely gorgeous in all the photos.
wow, you and those pictures are stunning! reminds me of this shoot from a few years ago in the rolling stones...
gorgeous!
You're so beautiful... these are great pics! Kudos to the photographer!

Final word=Gorgeous.

Wow girl, you are stunning.
And I so feel your pain about H&M. Green Bay needs one of those, an American Apparel, an Urban Outfitters, a Forever 21, among other things.
And I've just decided that I want to have a studded-theme birthday party :]
You look so gorgeous!!!
Great post :]
wonderful photos! Can't wait to see the nail polish. http://isnotfashion.blogspot.com
i want your lovely long hair, cool t-shirt and stunning heels please ;)
gorgeous photos, you are just stunning!
that last photo is amazing (they all are but the b/w is especially) your eyes really pop!
great snaps!
OMG. ERIKA.
GUESS WHAT COLOR IS ON MY NAILS!?
MEMSMERIZE by ESSIE!!
lol! and i JUST painted them yesterday too!!
ps. you look great in these picsss.
These are wonderful!!
All of your photos are great but the second to last one is absolutely stunning : )
Beautiful photos! that's such a cool experience, being able to shoot with an actual photographer.

...................GOD!
This is so great I'M SUPER EXCITED to see what you bring us next, I mean, if you can KILL IT in just jeans and a tee I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT YOU BRING NEXT!!!
His work is amazing but of course he has a great subject to work with! I love it, gorgeous!!! :)

@ Momo thank you!! :)
Very nice ones !!!
OHH MY FREAKING GOD!!!!
A friend of mine has a condo in Naples...maybe I can convince my parents to visit. Then we could possibly meet up :] Sure, it probably won't happen, but now we have some hope!
And I'll definitely invited you to my Studded Sweet Sixteen!! You should help me plan it :]
I know right Taylor has the best attitude on camera lol it's heaps of fun to watch and I'm still VERY excited to see what you snap next gorgeous! :)

WOW! Gorgeous pictures! your hair looks amazing! I love your blue heels a lot! Your blog is such an inspiration to me! <3
Wow...these photos of you are insanely gorgeous!
I feel your pain about no H&M's in the south. I went to college in New Orleans and law school in Miami and I missed H&M so bad! Always hit it up during Thanksgiving and winter breaks back up north. Hopefully the company will wise up and open some southern locations for you!
Love your blog and am adding you to my blogroll...would love if you'd link me back!
xoxo
Hey lovely dear, where did you go to college??? And how did you get started in styling/journalism related stuff?
im super frustrated we dont have an H&M in Miami. How ridiculous is that!
you look GORGEOUS.
can i just ask how you get all this free stuff?! i'm so jealous!
you look gorgeous and i'm jealous of all your luscious hair!
Gorgeous set! Your photog did you justice )
Wow greaat pics!!! Love the shirt!
OMG! Those are the most exquisite photos...whoever this photographer is, keep him! Those heels at the beach could get you into some serious ankle trouble, but they look amazing with the jeans.
these are great photos (:
totally agree about the H&M opening up. if only though ;D
You look so beautiful and happy! I can't wait to see more collaborations. The last picture is my favorite! xxoxoxoxo
Your hair is amazing. Especially in the last one. I wish H&M would open in my city or at least where I don't have to drive eight hours.
Gorgeous photos! It looked like a lot of fun too!
these photos are stunning! you look lovely!
as for the outfit, I love the t, and also those fabulous shoes.

kudos to your photographer friend! he did a great job.
naples or miami?
omg!!!
i love the black and white photo!
you're very very beautiful in there.
you look like a model.
Yesss I just added the clock moments ago. I always wonder the time, and I forget that it says it right on my task bar thing :]
Thank you dear. I'll pray for something studded to come your way too!!
And of course we'll both eat studded yogurt and cupcakes, while wearing our Sams and Colins :]
e, since you asked...i posted this in my blog a while ago, i think i will have to do a repost...
hope this explains!!!
p.s. i am ready for miami phot shoot anytime. :)
the third dimension is the world of this earth. it is 3 dimensional and the place where you can find most humans in all aspects of life.
now, when you raise your resonance, and you still live in the third with everyone else, you can experience another dimension in addition to those which you are already familiar with...
welcome to the astral plane, the fourth dimension.
one does not need money or food on the fourth. you create your own reality.
time is like a large loop. the fourth dimension represents time before birth, and also after death, and everything in between. it is populated by angels, spirits, immortal beings and those humans who can transcend the third dimension by astral projection, meditation and dreams.
you need to be careful what you think on the fourth because those thoughts can take form. if you think of a negative person, they may appear.
so, think positive thoughts to create a fun and fabulous reality while you are visitng the fourth dimension.
if you want it cold, let it snow and bundle up in your favorite leather boots, and rick owens or balenciaga winter coat. enjoy a cup of steaming vin chaud (my personal favorite) and some bittersweet chocolate.
and it could still be 85 degrees, and hot and humid in your current third dimension reality.
But of course we can make room for MK and Smash. And Cam and Audrey too :]
Sooo maybe like a studded party for six on the steps of the Met!!
Okay, so Audrey and Rockstar and Smash will be there in spirit. But we will make it to the Met with out Sams and Colins. No doubt, this is fate :]
Good night dear!! I'm praying to the shoe gods too :]
UMMMMM
you look straight up outta 1970's
i love these beautiful photos
someday maybe if with children, these will blow their minds!!
your blog features great style but is very down to earth as well
thanks!
Hey babycakes, you certainly are a sight for sore eyes!
Damn gorgeous!
I'm so happy for you, I'm sure any future collaborations will be simply amazing! And on that note, happy to hear about your little surprise as well. Ahhhhh, I couldn't believe it and can't wait to see that special "item" in a post! You'll rock it like always.
love you babe! xxx
Shirt is awesome!
And I love the heels on the sand, haha!
Amazing photography!

Oh, they're definitely easy... but run a tad big, actually wish mine were a half size smaller. But it's never a hinderance, trust me.
Safely said, I'm smitten by their self-exalted glory... and vertigo really does seem much easier to achieve once you have them on. lol.
You'll rock'em... Ahhh, can't wait. xxx
