A Golden Affair

Soooo my homegurl REBECCA is turning 25 on March 25th...aka her GOLDEN birthday.
To celebrate she decided to host a GOLD party last weekend.
The invite list was exclusive and the invitations were divine. (There are still gold sparkles all over my room.) The only requirements were to wear GOLD and get saucy! Oh, and of course, dance your ass off. And that's exactly what we did!

Bday golden girllll

Boogie time

DJ- play that song a little louderrrr

And how fun are these Polaroids we took!?

BFFS

For several years now I’ve had a sort of obsession with Charlotte Casiraghi.

She has a remarkable sense of style and Teen Vogue (which I swear is one of my favorite mags) often features pictures of her prancing around Europe looking marvelous. She and her friends are always seen at Paris Fashion Week decked out in enviable couture, looking fabulous and attending exclusive parties. I mean, come on, she lives the LIFE. She totally has that Euro-Princes-I-own-an-island-ness, and her social endeavors must be insane. But she also seems sort of sweet and, well, normal. Her style tends to have a casual, carefree tone to it... perhaps much like her attitude? And her dedication to her family (and country) are pretty admirable. So basically, I think she rocks and I think we could totally be best friends. I don’t speak French, but she might be impressed with my half ass Spanish skills. Or maybe she would appreciate the fact that I lived in the Basque country, or that my middle name is French (Jamar), or just my general ability to start great dance parties. We could totally listen to Yelle and share Stella McCartney tops and paint our nails matching colors…oh how tres amazing it would be! (Seriously, I know NO French.)

So here are some fun facts about Charlotte:

• She lives in Monte Carlo, Monaco- ummm I die. I went to Monaco once for a DAY and although I was terribly carsick on a bus the entire time, I was still able to appreciate how GORGEOUS it is. One day I will be back…and not so ill…and hopefully on a yacht.
• She was born with the title- Centre Hospitalier Princesse Grace.
• Her Grandmother was Grace Kelly!
• Her mother is the Princess of Monaco- I believe that makes her the next princess. But I don’t totally understand these things. When we're friends she'll tell me.
• She has two brothers Andrea and Pierre- Just like me! Except not the same names.

• She’s 23- we’re pretty much the same age.
• Vanity Fair has put her on the International Best Dressed List. Of course!
• She’s a published writer and magazine editor- jealllllll!! That is insanely amazing.
• Her grandparents bought her an island off Sardini- like, her own ISLAND.

So ya, she's fabulous and I think we should be best friends.
We'll totally invite you to our parties...maybe.

Falling

I've fallen out of favour

And I've fallen from grace

Fallen out of trees

And I've fallen on my face

Fallen out of taxis

Out of windows too

Fell in your opinion

When I fell in love with you

Sometimes I wish for falling

Wish for the release

Wish for falling through the air

To give me some relief

Because falling's not the problem

When I'm falling I'm in peace

It's only when I hit the ground

It causes all the grief

This is a song for a scribbled out name

And my love keeps writing again and again

This is a song for a scribbled out name

And my love keeps writing again and again

I'll dance myself up

Drunk myself down

Find people to love

Love people too drunk

I'm not scared to jump

I'm not scared to fall

If there was nowhere to land

I woudn't be scared

Sometimes I wish for falling

Wish for the release

Wish for falling through the air

To give me some relief

Because falling's not the problem

When I'm falling I'm in peace

It's only when I hit the ground

It causes all the grief

Falling
