Happy Monday sweets! 

I feel like it's been forever since I posted.  I had a super cute outfit for Thanksgiving and my camera just wouldn't work.  I swear, I need some classes on how to work my camera because when it wants to act up, forget it!  Not sure if you can see but I felt like death while taking these pics.  I have a slight head cold and I had to go Christmas shopping yesterday and I was not happy.  

I had to go because I never wait till the last week of Christmas #aintnobodygottimeforthat!

It's been super cold and crappy in NJ and yes, I changed into my rain boots after I took these pics.  Lol!     

Fake smile!  LOL!  No really, it was!  The hubby said...."come on, show me some teeth" so here they are!  I have a super busy weekend ahead so I'm hoping to feel better! 

Thanks for visiting!  Missed you guys!

How are my sweets doing?  Fab I hope! 

I wore this on Sunday to go with my hunny to AC.  We had a 3 day weekend and it was awesome to relax and have Monday off.  It's been pretty cold here in NJ considering it's fall. 

I've been the layering queen lately.  Anything not to wear a bulky coat!  I was gifted this top when I attended LuckyFabb and it's super soft and super comfy.  I wanna live in it!  It went perfect with my new burgundy booties, I got on sale at Macy's.  These boots are perfect for fall!

The weekends here!!!  Yes, I'm doing my happy dance! 

I have a 3 day weekend and I couldn't be happier!  If your wondering....yes, I'm wearing a sweatshirt and a button up together.  Layering is key for fall, especially in this crazy NJ weather.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

LUCKYFABB DAY 2 & LULU'S BLOGGER MEETUP

Hi there sweets!

  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I should have posted this last week but I've been so busy. 

Day 2 of LuckyFabb was so different from day 1. 

First of all it was at the Condé Nast Building.  Home of Lucky Magazine and Vogue!  Forget trying to even get on their floor, security was tighter than at the White House.  

We had to pick our sessions for day 2.  My first session was "Beauty Scoope" with Covergirl, Pantene, & Secret.  I use and love all of these products, so it was super fun to learn some inside.

   

Selfie with Lissette during our session!

My 2nd session was with the awesome Leandra Medine from The Man Repeller!  I LOVE her blog!

In my eyes no one does men's wear like Leandra.  From slacks, to over sized coats; she brings it!
She was so funny and sweet!

After a morning of sessions, a few of us headed to lunch.  We went to HB Burger and it was yummy!

My burger was delish!

After lunch I had a street style session with Canon.  I was super excited to learn how to work my camera.  It was very informative!

LuckyFabb is just that.....FABB!  After all the sessions we took home the mama of all gift bags! We got them on our way out so I didn't take a pic but lets just say they were 70lbs.  So you can just imagine the insane amount of goodies we got! The downside?  Carrying that damn bag over 10 blocks through NYC!
   

 Oh look....I didn't even notice that you can see my gift bag in this pic.  Yup, it was huge!

Just like on my day 1, the party didn't stop there!  Some of us girls were invited to a private meetup with Lulu's, at STK in Midtown.  We had the opportunity to take a peek at their fall collection.  The other girls decided to change their outfits, I went the easy route.  Traded my flats for knee boots, and added a red lip.   Night time ready!

Thank you Stephanie and Lulu's for a wonderful evening and my fab coat!

I hope you enjoyed LuckyFabb through my eyes.  If you're a blogger and are debating whether to attend...just do it!  It was an awesome experience!  Can't wait till next year!

Thanks for visiting!  Have a great day!
