9.23.11 // Happy Birthday To Me...





It's finally that time of year again, the time when I remember my age and want nothing more than to forget it. I never even thought I would make it to an age where I would even say this. Haha! Oh well... Tonight is a beautiful, traditional dinner with my family at One Pico Restaurant in Santa Monica. My love bought me this new velvet T Alexander Wang dress I had been dying over ever since I saw the previews. Wanted to go for a nostalgic 20's theme with it because it seemed dramatic and therefore birthday appropriate. Wonder what my wish will be when I blow out my candles... :)

    OKay so this might sound weird but you just like so fluid in this photo. Like water, just organically put together. With the long hair, the fur jacket and floor length skirt - you look amazing!
