Mother Pucker

I just got done eating one of the most incredible.. and most expensive meals I think I'll ever eat in my whole entire life.


You know how typically when you go to some ridiculously expensive restaurant.. you order something you think is just going to amaze you.. because they used 27 big impressive words to describe a steak...only to find out you're paying 50.00 for a slab of meat you could have thrown on a BBQ in your backyard and been more impressed with?? You get all dressed up and shave your legs to be blow away.. and instead end up paying triple what you'd pay anywhere else for the ambiance of a half lit room, a waiter named Franco with an accent you can't understand and the pleasure of using 3 forks instead of 1??


Well, I have a new love... it's Christopher's steak house on Pierpont Ave. If you've never eaten there... I suggest you find someone with a lot of money just burning a hole in their pocket to take you. You will NOT be disappointed. This place was incredible. I might even go as far to say that's it's my new favorite.. and I should know, I think between all of us we ordered half the menu. There wasn't a single thing I tried that I didn't love. I don't think I'll have to eat for 2 days. Everything was delicious. Like a mini party in your mouth delicious ;)


In other news... a girlfriend of mine had me go out on a little mission.. she wants me to start a fashion blog but I don't know about getting into all that.. so I just decided that if you're interested in that kind of thing, you can catch up on the latest thing we're up to on here.


The mission: Find an outfit, for under $100.00 that can be worn to the office/workplace, and easily transformed into something that wears well at dinner/drinks also.


This obviously did not hurt my feelings. Going shopping.. spending some time at the mall.. trying on some amazing clothes.. right up my alley.


Here are my Fashion finds.. I think you'll really love it.




(Yes this pic was taken in the dressing room at H&M.. no cameras allowed? ;) lol) H&M Grey Lace skirt ($34.95) H&M White tailored button up ($19.95) H&M Black Sparkle clutch ($17.95)

Obviously the clutch falls into the dinner drinks portion of this but I figured since it was there.. I was there, I'd give it a little photo op.


Throw on a H&M classic black (or white) tailored tube ($19.95) under your white button up and you get:






I paired this with some really simply, elegant jewelry. A Pandora bracelet that added just a small touch of color, a really simply diamond cocktail ring, and an Alan Friedman pendant. I would keep the jewelry very classic. You don't want to overpower the texture in the skirt and even though this picture doesn't highlight it too well.. the lines and structure in the top.


Success.. I think if we add that up it's 92.80.. and so simple. What do you think??
