What is a Nasty Gal?  Don’t worry, it’s not what you think!  The company deems her the coolest girl in the room, pulling off just about anything you can imagine from vintage gems to current trends.  I’m sure you are all familiar with this online clothing sensation, but in case you aren’t… here are a few of my favorite new looks!  Can you tell I’m a little captivated by shades of blush at the moment?  These rosy pink hues and hints of tangerine scream springtime!  

You can’t go wrong with a cut-out top like the neon pocket shirt above, and the high-waisted scalloped shorts paired with a flowing blouse are oh so flattering!  Shop Nasty Gal’s new looks for all your spring/summer necessities, and enter their blog contest for a chance to win a $10,000 gift card!    

I hope you all are embracing the spirit of romance today… I know I sure am! This delicate, rosy colored inspiration board is helping me plan what to wear tonight in order to show off my love-day mood!  I could easily feel down and disheartened spending my Valentine’s Day single yet again…but I couldn’t be more excited to go out with my gals tonight who are all in the same boat.  If you didn’t get the chance to hear about my festivities, read here for all the goodies!

As you get older this dreamy holiday isn’t always so peachy perfect, but I am determined to remember the times where handing out sweet little valentines topped with lollipops and candy hearts was oh so fun…and this year is no exception!  I plan on bringing something special to dinner for all of my lovely ladies as we spend our last few months together before parting ways and entering the real world (outside of college).  So, like I said earlier this month, be happy in this moment and cherish those who love you unconditionally both today and every day!

With Valentine’s Day only 14 days away, it’s official: my date for two years in a row now is once again my good friend Izzie, along with seven or so other ladies.  We made our annual singles reservation at P.F. Changs downtown, and I couldn’t be more excited to devour their four-course meal for two, complete with your choice of soup, an appetizer, two entrees, individual mini desserts, and my favorite, a bottle of Pinot Noir!  This month is full of handmade heart cards, fragrant flowers, and confused men trying to plan that last-second night out with their leading ladies, so I consider myself lucky to be able to spend the Hallmark holiday with my girls who would never break my heart like every man so gracefully does!  …and most importantly, whether you are dressing for your admirer or a singles night out (hopeful that love will be on your side next year), finding that memorable outfit is crucial…so my advice is to impress Cupid and color block in shades of red and pink.  If the infamous style icon and ”tell it like it is” hopeless romantic- Carrie Bradshaw (better known as Sarah Jessica Parker) gives this trend her approval, you can bet that others will too.  I challenge you all to make Feb. 14th special this 2012, and skip getting wrapped up in the stress of it all.  Just make sure to spend quality time with someone you love dearly!

Also, for all you deal savers out there… moolala is having a great special right now.  For $25 dollars you receive 2 movie tickets + a $50 gift card that can be redeemed at some tasty places like Max’s Wine Dive and J Black’s.  My friends and I aren’t only treating ourselves to a Valentine’s Day dinner…thanks to moolala, we are splurging on another meal and a night full of crying our eyes out watching The Vow starring my hubby Channing Tatum…i wish.
