Men In Trees

Kind of fills the Sex And The City void, in a PG sort of way.

That's It

Next year I will be having a Grey's Anatomy season premiere party. It
came to me a week ago that I should be doing a party but I didn't have
enough time to plan one. I am very annoyed with myself. But next year,
there will be a party. Everyone may have to wear scrubs, I don't know.
I hope everyone enjoyed the premiere as much as I did.

Let's Review

Let the gushing begin.
Continuum is brilliant. I absolutely adore this album. (I am very passionate about my music, if you haven't noticed by now.)The sound of this album is amazing. Songs like "Waiting On The World to Change & "Belief" are thought provoking and funky. The iPod heats up with the sexy sounds of "I Don't Trust Myself W/Loving You" & "Slow Dancing In A Burning Room." I love how innocent "Stop This Train" & "The Heart Of Life" are. And I can't stop hitting rewind and getting lost in "Bold As Love." And "In Repair" does nothing less than move me.

I expect we'll be hearing some of John Mayer's new music on Grey's
Anatomy this season (maybe a song or two. Just guessing) House already used "Gravity"(good choice, good episode) I also won't be shocked if I'm in a swanky, posh lounge somewhere, and the Dj plays a song from this album. This album just gives off that type of vibe.

Let Me Count The ways

Justin, Justin, Justin. How much do I love, love this album? It was
tough not to hit that rewind button, the first listen through but I stayed strong. Yes I have rules for listening to a new album...no rewinding any songs the first listen. All songs must be listened to in its entirety. (Gives all songs a fair chance.) This is a rule my cousin and I use to use for when N'Sync albums came out, since then I have implemented this rule for Justin and JC's efforts as well. From the first song "Futuresex/Lovesound I was like, yes, I like where he's taking us. "...My Love" & "Lovestoned..." I was trying not to break out in a dance(Loving the Prelude for both of those songs by the way, and the interlude for "What Goes Around" Insane!) Then I got to "Summer Love" Love It! I thought if there were no more great songs on this album I would still love it. And then there was "Losig My Way" Have I mentioned I love this album? Its safe to say more than Justified.Futuresex/Lovesound has officially been placed in heavy rotation.
- I'm lovin it

Who's First?

I've got both albums loaded in the iPod and I'm ready to go. And I've
decided to listen to Justin's album first, then Mr. Mayer. The deciding
factor was who I have been a fan of longer and (dare I say) MMC was
hands down(I may even have a few posters tucked away somewhere as
proof...maybe)
I haven't been this excited for an album release since Coldplay's "X&Y"
album.

-Cover me, I'm goin' in

I've Got My Eyes On...

I am not quite sure how often I will do this post. So I'm playing it by ear for now.

I'm a sucker for big bags and compartments. So I am loving this.. not-so little number( Marc by Marc Jacobs @ shopbop.com)


I have been a fan of White Trash Charms ever since Ms. Bradshaw wore her "Lightning Bolt" necklace on Sex And The City. This is...cute. The great thing about WTC righteous pieces are the chains come in not just one length, and you can get just about any of your pieces in silver or yellow or white gold. Whitetrashcharms


This dress is adorable for fall (maybe even the start of winter.)Anthropologie




I just may be the last person on earth who doesn't own a pair of these jeans. But I couldn't picture myself in them until now. But now that I can picture myself in them I will be getting them in a few colors(Oh yes, I've got shopping rules)Sass and Bide Net-A-Porter

Just A Friendly Reminder

As if you needed to be told, September 12th will be the release of John Mayer's 3rd (let's say)studio album Continuum.The man is so lyrically gifted (to say the least) its as though he can't stop putting music out there,(Bless him) so I won't bother including all of his live albums including the Trio.


Justin Timberlake's sophomore album Future Sex/Love Sounds will be another chart topper yet again. We got a little teaser at the MTV VMA's and all I'm saying is..."I liked what I heard."



Like normal if you pre-order on itunes, you get bonus tracks.
Reviews on both albums to follow.

What I'm Listening To Now

The Fray, and lots of it. I absolutely adore their music I can't stop
listening to it. I love, love "Look After You" and of course "How To
Save A Life" "Vienna" and "Dead Wrong" are also amazing. I will be
checking them out on their fall tour. I can only imagine how they will
be live. But for now they will remain in heavy rotation. My poor ipod.

Taking A Chance

Yesterday I tried out a new hair stylist. I have been going to the same
stylist for years so I was completely nervous to say the least. What if
I don't like it? What would I do? Of course I was being a total drama
queen about it, it was really not that big of a deal (now, looking back
on it) but that's just me. I told him I wanted to do a look like Nicole
Richie, and that's what he gave me. I am totally pleased with my new
"Do" and I will be going back to him. So a little foolish advice? Try
something you wouldn't normally do or have wanted to do and haven't
done.

The Forgotten

With fall season premieres for all of our favorite shows popping up left
and right I can't help but pout that Love Monkey will not be amongst the
many line ups to return. I was watching Love Monkey last night, it was
whitty, charming, great story line to say the least. And why didn't this
show make it? It deserved another season. I hope the one season will be
released on dvd in the near future.(So I can delete all of the episodes
I have saved, so I can free up some space on my device) Love Monkey you
will be missed. Ok I won't harp on this any more.
I did enjoy the premiere of Prision Break I skipped out on Yoga last
night just to watch it live.****SPOILER**** Poor Veronica, but she
should have known better. She should have seen that coming. How will
they prove Stedman (is that his name?) is alive now that Veronica is out
of the picture. I bet they'll spend the whole season trying. Just a
hunch. I don't know about you but I am so excited for season premiere
of Grey's Anatomy. Don't even get me started on that show...Love it!!!

My New Theme Song

You know how you listen to songs and sometimes you don't really pay
attention to what its really saying? Or am I the only one guilty of
this? Any way the song..."Jump" by her majesty... Madonna. Love it!!! I
heard it so many times. But today it finally clicked what I was singing
along to all this time. Quite the empowering number. Anyway the song is
on her "Confessions On A Dance Floor" album I also heard it on the
commercial for "The Devil Wears Prada" movie (yes its true, I haven't
seen that movie yet I'm probably the only one who hasn't seen it. Maybe
i'll do that this weekend) so its probably on that soundtrack, not to
mention its a great song for a dance party, party of one ;)

My First Photo Shoot

One word...awkward. It was not glamorous at all. When I got in front of
the camera I was like a deer in head lights. Now what? (Is what was
running through my head) Turn here, arch your back, move that leg there,
chin up ok wonderful don't move. Uh chin down. Clearly I should have
prepared by watching a marathon of America's Next Top Model before
going. Eventually, I started to get a bit more use to it all. It was
quite exhausting. It will take a few more shoots for me to get use to
this stuff, I'm telling you.

Misfit of Love

So there is a quiz on msn.(Click title to take the quiz)Suddenly
Single: "Are You Beter Off Single." And I had a bit of a low (emphasis
on the bit) score. I believe its safe to say I'm a pessimist when it
comes to love or let's just say relationships in general. I just can't
be bothered with the headache of it all because yes they always turn out
to be more of a headache than anything else. I'm sure I should keep
trying until I find the one the doesn't cause that type of reaction,
because according to my score I need to think positively, and take
concrete action to improve my chances.(whatever) I will be sure to keep
that in mind, even if I am a Love Misfit. Well now you know what
category/range I was in.
But single or not I'm wearing my Manolo Blahnik "Mary Jane's" and I feel
fabulous.

Focus, Focus,Focus

I know, I know! I'm suppose to be reading about Macrobiotics. But I keep
finding myself reading (whenever I can) more & more about yoga. Not that
my Macro studies are important or interesting its just that I keep
finding more and more things that just keeps me reading.
That being said I had a great practice this morning my favorite
instructor returned from vacation and everyone was happy to have her
back, I couldn't have been more pleased to see her myself. After class
it was like we were all little kids again running up to our favorite
teacher to gush about how great we think she is, she how she has been
doing, and tell her how much she was missed.

Ok! Ok!
-Getting back to Macro

I've Been A Bit Sidetracked

But for good reason. I've been trying to spruce up the place. Its a lot harder than I thought it would be, and time consuming. But thus far I've managed to add a few new things to this blog, like: links to some of my favorite sites, email me, blogs that I've been reading (which aren't a lot, since I'm just getting into this blogging thing.) I will be adding more things as I go along and learn new stuff. This is totally trial and error so bear with me.

Now on to more important things...
Not too long ago I stumbled upon this "Find" at Closet Therapy Blog

(By the way, doesn’t Posh look fabulous? I just love her.) I am 85% sure that this gorgeous Prada bag will be one of my staple bags for the fall/winter season. Its about time that I retire my wonderful black Marc Jacobs bag that has been with me through thick and thin...Well at least give it a break.
Warning!!! I am really trying not to make this another fashion blog. However every once in a while I will post about my current "Must Haves" and being that Fall and Winter (my favorite seasons) are upon us this may happen quite often which depending on the reader may/may not be a good thing.

What a Find

I am always on the hunt for new music. Yesterday I was just introduced to Dave Barnes. I've been "Over the moon" ever since. Let me say, "His music is absolutely incredible." I haven't stopped listening to it. I particularly fancy the "Chasing Mississippi" Album (But I think that's only because that is the album that is playing right now. I'm sure it will change once "Brother, Bring the Sun" plays...Again) Both albums... SOLID!

Never Say Never

From one dog lover to... (anyone really)
I would always say that I would never dress my Yorkie up. I have been going strong with this rule for as long as I've had my little pup (3 years) But yesterday I was in Target and they had these Isaac Mizrahi polo's (note: that I had seen these before but I didn't give in) But yesterday I was caught off guard, my sweet boy had just got a new hair cut the day before needless to say10 minutes later I walking out with a blue striped polo for him. I gave in. But I think he likes it, (especially since it wasn't a struggle to get him in his new shirt.) Its very light, and did I mention its on sale in the stores, by the time I got to the register it was $6 and change. Here is the polo in red from target.com (FYI this item is full retail online)

What A Workout

My yoga instructor was out today so we had a sub. This sub really
focuses on like Vinyasa/Power Yoga. Needless to say I know I will be
aching tomorrow. I was initially planning to go to yoga then do some
cardio after. But after today's practice...there is no need. I really
did enjoy it, it was a nice little surprise. I've had her as a sub
before, and she is great.
All I want now, is a shower.

Time For An Upgrade!

I was not telling the truth when I said I didn't want the new Sidekick 3. After seeing the pictures of the newer model I am in love and must have it. I should have known that my love for these great gadgets would get the best of me and I would end up breaking down and making a purchase.

--They get me every time

Trying Something New

I haven't posted in over a week. So what's new with me? Well... I
started reading up on Macrobiotics. It is rather interesting, and I've
heard good things about it. So I am going to try it out, I am hoping
that it will not be difficult adapting to this new life style for me.

-Wish me luck
