Mexican Fiesta

If you live (or are visiting) Miami, New York, or Chicago try a meal out at Mercadito.  It's modern Mexican, and they have some standout dishes.  I had a perfect little Sunday brunch here for $18 (which including one drink of choice).  The carne tacos (steak and potatoes) and the estilo baja tacos (beer battered Mahi Mahi) are seriously tasty.  And their margaritas are the bomb.

Get Him to the Greek

I watched the movie Get Him to the Greek this weekend.  It was no Hangover, but it was pretty funny.  I laughed aloud quite a few times.  If you don't have anything better to do, I recommend it.

Jersey at Its Trashiest

Tonight is the series premiere of My Big Friggin' Wedding on VH1 at 9/8C. The show follows the "stress and drama of five couples and their families as they prepare to tie the knot...or not."  Just when you thought Jersey couldn't get any classier trashier than Danielle Staud, VH1 schedules this show into it's line up.


I first got excited when I saw a preview clip featuring a girl yelling "the bachelorette's mother is passed out drunk in the middle of the dance floor."  Let me know if you tune in.

Excellent Halloween Costumes

I have only a vague idea who these two d-list celebrities are, but their Halloween costumes are pretty, pretty, pretty amazing. One Tree Hill tv stars Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols dressed as Katy Perry and Russell Brand.

New Coat for Me!

I bought a new coat Moncler coat last week in Paris.  I went to the Moncler store on Rue Faubourg St-Honore on a Saturday afternoon and there was a line of 30 people waiting outside to get in.  They were waiting outside in the cold for 45 minutes to buy 800 EUR coats!  The store had a security guard at the door and only let one person in for every one person who exited.  I couldn't believe it!  


I couldn't stomach waiting for 45 minutes, so I left and came back later in the evening when the line was smaller.  I still can't believe that I was a big enough sucker to get in line at all, but luckily, I was only in the cold for 10 minutes before I was ushered inside.  I made my boyfriend wait with me and he was about ready to kill me.  


At the end of the experience, I walked about with this beauteous coat!  A picture of the coat style is below, but mine is gray/purple color.

I'm back and lusting after purses!

I'm so ashamed.  It's been a week and half since I last posted.  Sorry, folks!  I got caught up in work, but today I decided that I'd rather blog than work, so I'm setting aside some time to blog everyday.


First things first, a new Balenciaga bag that my sister found online.  Tres chic, non?  No price on it yet, but I'm going to keep my eyes open and browse for it in stores.
