I thought in honor of all this, I'd give you a little more insight into who I am with: random facts, past favorite blog posts and some of my favorites in general..... I hope you enjoy.
Some of the blog posts I most took pleasure from over this last year are this Fashion Week collage, and when I wore my Marc Jacobs trench for the very first time (blog-wise), the text I wrote in this post. A reader request - for those of you who have been asking for some more images of Sweety; here, here and here. Lately I can't get enough of Iced lattes (thank you, Starbucks!) The bright neon nailpolish collection by Essie. Can you guess which color I picked? Bodysuits (especicially by Motel and Urban Outfitters) I'd love to own a plethora. Oversize sunglasses, multicolored cardigans á la Rodarte and Missoni print pullovers. Wanting to get my hands on the perfect shimmery one-piece bathing suit for Summer. As far as cuisine goes; I love my bi-weekly lunch salads. All of the Odwalla protein shakes, fill me up, cool me off and of course, offer a grand dose of protein and energy. My favorite meal of the day has to be dinner, my famous shrimp fettucine or slow-cooked chicken with veggies and Italian cheese. Sweet potatoes and beets are the perfect side dish to just about every meal, luckily they're both easy to prepare and everybody's favorite. And in general, I really love Bruno Dayan's photography, this and him right now.

hey (:
my shirt was pretty easy to make.
if you get like any loose fit t-shirt (I think it should be cotton , and it could be the stretchy stuff too , i'm not good with specifics) . It can be rather tight but then it wouldn't do that cool kind of draping thing.
and then get fabric scissors and cut horizontal lines through the back.
and then cut the neck line from the back so it can drape too. and not hang awkwardly.
pretty easy (:
http://fashion-intervention.blogspot.com/
Thanks so much girl. I am glad you like my blog. It means a lot to me !!!
And WOW: Congrats to your 500th post. That's amazing!
Keep going!
xx
CONGRATULATIONS!
We love ya!!
"Wanderlusting" has a lovely blog too, thanks for introducing me to her site!
Thanks for the applause... We readers applaud you, Erika, because you brighten the days of each and every one of us, commenting and non-commenting readers, with all your posts. The lovely phtoos and your words never fail to touch me!
My favourite post is still the one in January 2008, where you published your "Gossip Girl" photo ^^
That NY Fashion Week collage is really cool, with the "paint sprinkle" in the background!
The photos in your trench coat post have such a vintage feel to them, I think it's the lighting... they're very beautiful pictures. The photographer is amazing.
Oh yes, the dress in the "nailpolish" post was the one I chose for the outfit I styled for you!
Wow, Sweety's eyes in the first picture look almost turquoise!! :) In the third one too!
I'm guessing you picked the purple nailpolish?? Tell me if I'm right!
I loved to read all about your favourite food, and HAHAHA! The Office scene was SO FUNNY! :D
And Jon Rhys-Meyers is hot, no???
Congratulations again!
congratulations for the 500th post :)
I wish you a nice weekend :p
