Five Things

July 1st, 2011

{My mom’s ridiculously adorable Miu Miu Mary Janes}

I love the traditions wrapped around Independence Day and all the memories they bring with them. I’m splitting the first half of the long weekend up in Marin (to celebrate my grandma’s birthday with an afternoon of wine tasting) and then heading back to L.A. to watch the fireworks. I’ve compiled just a few of the things making me happy in a sparkly, entertainment-themed 4th of July sort of way.

 

{I love this watering can-turned-vase for a rustic table}

{A vintage horse for the bar that doubles as a bottle opener}

 



{Easy entertaining: caprese kabobs}

{Sally Hansen’s Frock Star – sparkly glitter strips (seen here on me)}

    I used these nail strips once and they looked great! Only problem was getting the stuff off of my finger nails!! It took at least an hour for me to scratch it all off (nail polish remover didn’t cut it). Afterwards my nails were so sore !!! I would never use them again!
