What's My Name?

Princess RiRi is really crankin' out the hits for her album, Loud. I am really digging her second single, What's My Name? It's got this fantastic Caribbean feel to it that I really like. Keep 'em coming, RiRi!

PS: Loving that Drake is in this song. Didn't they use to briefly date? Hmmm.

Oprah's Favorite Things.

If you know me, you know that I live for Oprah. Oprah's Favorite Things is, hands down, the most entertaining show of the year. This year was no exception, as Oprah really pulled out the stops for one last Favorite Things episode. Nothing is more entertaining than watching the lucky guests scream in delight, cry out loud, praise Jesus, jump up and down and generally tweak out over the gifts they are receiving. Check out 5:17 in the second video for my fave Oprah-tweak-out.

God, I love her.

Royal Engagement.

It's official; Prince William has proposed to long-time girlfriend Kate Middleton. William gave Kate his mother's engagement ring; a stunning sapphire and diamond ring. "It's my mother's engagement ring, so of course it's very special to me, and Kate's now very special to me, so it was only right to put the two together," said William during his interview.

As the wife of a royal duke and prince, Kate will assume the title of duchess as well as Royal Highness. Kate will also assume her official duties shortly after she is married. Prince William is planning to introduce her to these duties slowly to avoid the depression suffered by his late mother when she joined the Royal Family.

This wedding is going to be insane. Let's hope it's televised. Better yet, let's hope I get an invite!

Only Girl.

I've got Rihanna's "Only Girl" on serious repeat lately.

PS: How are we feeling about RiRi's uber-red hair? Love it or leave it?

The Parker.

What would be more fab than to stay in The Parker in

Palm Springs? Nothing. The Parker, designed by Jonathan Adler,
boasts quirky, modernist style with a lot of 60's inspiration.

I vacationed in Palm Springs years ago and it's an interesting and
eclectic vacation town with a lot of old Hollywood history.
So, let's stay at The Parker next time around? K?

Fashion Inspiration.

Karla from Karla's Closet is, hands down, one of
my favorite fashion bloggers. It doesn't hurt that
she is gorgeous and very photogenic!

I'm a big fan of Denny from Denny's World.
His style is really playful and he credits old school
Michael Cane as his biggest fashion inspiration.

Le Blog de Betty is a fabulous blogger from France

whose style is very Parisian and edgy. Tres chic!

I hope these bloggers inspire you as much as they
do me. At the very least, for some fashion eye-candy!

Where Is My Phone?!

I cannot even tell you how many times I lose my

phone in a given week! I Can't Find My Phone is this
terrific website where you type in your phone number
and it calls your phone. I tried it and it works! Genius!

Monster.

I am really loving Kanye West's newest single, Monster, right now. The best part of this song is, hands down, Nicki Minaj's part at 3:36. She kills it. She puts Kanye, Rick Ross and Jay-Z to shame.

I love Nicki Minaj. She is such a good rapper and so hot right now and like she says in the song, she doesn't even have an album out yet. "So, let me get this straight wait I’m the rookie/But my features and my shows ten times your pay/50k for a verse no album out!"

Halloween Recap.

Andrew and I dressed up as Pauly D
and Snooki from Jersey Shore. There was fist
pumping, Jagermeister and bronzer. Seriously,
Halloween is way too much fun to not dress up!

Confronting Life.

I stumbled across this video and article and thought it was really powerful; a man confronts a couple of abortion protesters after he and his wife enter a clinic to abort their near-stillborn child.
