It's Been Too Long!!!

Sorry everyone for not writing in a long time, but I have decided I really need to start again. This country girl gone city needs to start keeping her life more up to date.

So, I don't have internet right now. Do to the fact I go in a fight with AT&T. I am now a proud Verizon customer and should have internet by August 9th. YAY!

Not very much is really that new, looking into going back to college for Marketing and Advertising. My family FINALLY came out to visit me! (I will talk more about that next time.)

Well, this is just a post to say "Hi, I'm back!" Can't wait to get started again! :)

Hamptons Weekend


Scotty and I

So, the one and only time I made it out to the Hamptons this summer, Hurricane Danny decided to hit Long Island and have it downpour and be overcast the whole time. Which in the long run was probably better for my very fair skin. Dee and I headed out there with my friend, Scotty to stay at a house he rents. On Saturday, in the mist of the torrential rain, we decided to go to the Day & Night party, which is a brunch that just keeps going on into the evening. The party just keeps going on and on! After we got done with brunch, we just danced around and watched the dancers that were hired for some guy's birthday. When Scotty turned to me and said, "Look who's sitting at our table! Go get a picture with him!" It was Russell Simmons! He was super nice and didn't mind taking a picture with a little Nebraska country girl. All in all, it was a great fun weekend, even if it rained the whole time.

My Twin?!?!?
















For about the past year, I haven't been able to walk into a club, a restaurant or even a bowling alley without having someone think that I am Madeline Zima, the girl off of Californication on Showtime (and The Nanny back in the day.) I didn't used to see the resemblance at all, but I guess our face shape is the same and we both have high cheek bones, along with brown hair. It amazes me how men are normally the ones that notice the similarities that Madeline and I share. I didn't quite understand this in the beginning, but then I watched the first few episodes of the show. Needless to say, I sure hope that no one thinks I act like her character on the show....
So, what do you think?? Is she my twin??

New obsession for a few months now... :)

I have had these shoes for a few months now and I wear them EVERYWHERE!! They are so stylish and sleek. I can look like a rocker chick or just look like a fashionista. I have even just thrown them in my bag, just in case I go out, and I was wearing jean shorts and a tee shirt... P.S. I did go out that night! HEHE! My favorite pair of shoes!!... At least this for the past few months. :)

Alberta Ferretti Dress

This is the dress I wore to Eric and Kim's wedding. The one that my great friends at Alberta Ferretti let me borrow. It was such a beautiful wedding!

Alberta Ferretti Showroom

First off, I'd like to say sorry for not posting in quite awhile. I got very busy with work and personal engagements AND almost got back together with an ex.... (didn't happen *Thank Goodness!* and no I don't want to talk about.)

Let me tell you about the work I got busy with. I booked most of Alberta Ferretti's showroom market. A showroom is where the designer sells the collection to stores. They were very long days of being in high heels the whole time, but I loved the people I worked with (the interns were wonderful!!) and the collection was beautiful!!! I actually have a dress picked out that I'm going to have to buy!! Yes, it was that amazing! :)

This one day I worked a 12 hour day and only sat down for a total of 15 minutes! People can't say that models have it easy all the time. Yes, we do have several great perks to our job, but it's definitely not as glamorous as everyone thinks.

On a happy note/perk. I got to borrow a dress from them for Eric and Kim's (2 of my very close friends here on the east coast) wedding. It's this Saturday and I can't wait!!! Pictures to follow.... :)

(I attached a couple of my favorite outfits from Alberta Ferretti and Alberta Ferretti Philosophy Collections. But I couldn't find a picture of my favorite dress, that I will probably buy.)
