little lady style

some style tips from the world's youngest fashion blogger- Leighton

a bucket makes for a perfect accessory/purse to a romper on a warm summer day

a little leopard is always chic

Coco Chanel said, to always take one thing off before leaving the house, but I say more is more

I'm a big fan of the one shoulder

big fan

my take on menswear...your brother's boots add a fun twist to a pretty dress

stay tuned...i am sure she will continue to voice her fashion opinion and evolve her style;) and yes, all these fashions were done and styled by the little lady herself.

the shoe thief strikes again..and again...and again...

leighotn has loved shoes since she was born. as soon as she could crawl she would grab a shoe and chew on it. as soon as she could walk she began stealing them...

"what are you looking at?"

she had a little trouble with these

she has been getting ambitious with her selection. i think she wanted the height to reach the door knob, so she could go out.

PS. i also think it's amazing she almost always gets them on the right feet...also interesting ollie almost always puts them on the wrong feet.

oscars

i love the academy awards! always have! and always dreamed of going. i have requested red carpet passes a few times and have never been chosen. this year, i heard LIVE With Kelly was doing an after oscar show, so i requested tickets. miraculously, i got them! so at about 1:45am the morning after (or the night of) the oscars, my sister-in-law rachel, and i arrived to accept our oscars...well, more like we waited around 4 hours to see the 1 hour talk show. but we got to be in the same theater hours after the awards and to me, it was awesome!!!

we even got pretty good seats! the theater looks a LOT bigger on tv.

the hosts- kelly ripa & doogie howser- i mean barney- i mean neil patrick harris:)

the aftermath

my girl audrey.

on a side note. the fashion is always my favorite. i LOVE the fancy dresses, hair, make-up, diamonds. love, love, love. i designed and sewed award show dresses for my barbies when i was young, for crying out loud. i am a little obsessed...

this year, i loved these bright red, coral colors.

 a few weeks ago i pinned this dress and thought it would make a great awards show dress...i think i would have fit in nicely;)

think pink

leighton spotted her tutu in the closet. she pointed to it and squealed..s.o we put it on her. she seemed to enjoy it;)

happy hearts day

making hearts for his classmates

hope your day is filled with love

all the world's a stage...

this little diva loves to make a stage out of anything and is so happy to be center stage...

...until her brother tries to steal the spotlight.

leighton's 1st birthday

1 years old! wahoo! we had a fun day with family celebrating our little girl. it has been an adjustment being home with 2 rambunctious little ones and i am learning more and more everyday...and drinking more and more. drinking coffee that is, what did you think i meant?! ;)

the birthday girl with her daddy

we started the day with some football outside

then we went to papa and nanny's house (jonathan's parents) where leighton looked for something pretty to put on.

time for presents!!!

helping hands from eager cousins

ollie opened most of her gifts:) 

can you see how sweaty he is and his rosy cheeks? he loves running around with his cousins.

oooh, a purse and some accessories! her favorite!

hmm... i think i need a few more necklaces

that's better

showing off her look

the aftermath

cake time:)

we sang happy birthday. even ollie, who has always cried during this song and yelled at everyone to stop singing, even when it wasn't his birthday. he told us he would go in the other room when we sang to leighton, but i guess the desire for a cupcake overtook his dislike of "happy birthday."

i think she ate the whole thing in about 30 seconds:) think she liked it?

happy birthday leighton!!! we love you!!!

"...hey wait are those my new necklaces?!?!"
