The Hunt for the perfect dress

Now that St. Barths is in a mere 16 days (OMG!) the hunt for the perfect dress continues. I spent all day Sunday in and out of every major store in New York City (Bloomingdales, Saks, Bergdorf's, Intermix, Barney's, Calypso) just to name a few. I could not find anything that was right. It seems that whatever cruise wear the stores received, which is very minimal this year, is too dark, too Palm Beach, too New Years in NYC or just plain not what I am looking for. Does that make sense? Anyway, below are some of the dresses I tried on, and loved, but were still just not right.

Let me know what you think!

J'adore


I DIE! Yup, I said it...




LOVE this dress!


Technically still Fall in NYC

15 Days until Christmas!

The Set Up

You know your love life is pathetic when your mother is desperately trying to set you up. Seriously, I think my mother trumps anyone else when it comes to trying to find me a date, and she's not even Jewish! But, I guess an Italian mother is just as bad.

My mother is convinced that my soul mate is the weekend weather man on channel 7 news. She has even gone as far as to not only email him, but to call Michelle Charlesworth, a reporter for ABC news, to discuss how I would be perfect for him. Seriously, you can't make this up. Too bad she found out that he is now engaged.

Last week she told me that she gave my number out to two people in one day. One to a woman she just met so that she can set me up with her son and the other to her shoemaker. Yes, that's right, my mother is now having her shoemaker set me up. Apparently he wants to set me up with some physical therapists son. Keep in mind that this shoemaker has never even met me, yet he knows better than I do who would be right for me.

I think she is trying to tell me something, but I am not taking the hint.
