I must admit- I am not very good with wearing colors. I always wear black. When I look into my closet, I see blacks...call me boring but I can't help it. I just love it. Black has never disappointed me.
This has a lot to do with my mother. My mother worked in the fashion industry for many many years and her wardrobe staples are from Yohji Yamamoto, Comme Des Garcons and Issay Miyake...all in black.
It's not that I haven't made an attempt on colors. The reactions vary among friends and family. One day, I wore Elizabeth and James Lucinda dress in cerise. (BTW, this dress is so versatile: you can wear as a boat-neck, one shouler or strapless, with or without belt, even with statement necklace) My best friend Jenn said, "You, in a pink dress? You must have become soft."
Have I really become soft because I wear pink? Or has the fashion revolution started in my own closet? I think the latter. Every season I look into my closet and go through many magazines and all the fashion sites then I come up with "The List". That way, I won't go too crazy on impulsive buys such as I might wear it, only wear it once, or even might be able to fit into it if I lost weight....and I don't have to explain it to myself later.
So here are some from my list for this season:
I swear I am not having pink fever (Pink is a color I don't remember wearing when growing up)but I think this skirt is a must for the fall. It's super sexy and edgy at the same time. I wear it with Alexander Wang tank or Kain tees then my faux leather jacket will finish the look.
1) Pleasure Doing Business Five Banded Skirt in Hot Pink:
Pleasure Doing Business 5 Band Mini Skirt as seen on MARY-KATE OLSEN
$88.00 at Pink Mascara
This tee has the rock'n roll vibe-with the studs. I wear it with leggings (liquid leggings or lace leggings) and biker boots.

Is there anyone else out there besides me who is obsessed with this chili sauce? I have been using the Huy fong sriracha hot chili sauce or "rooster" sauce for almost 6 years now. I put it on everything, and have noticed that some chain grocery stores are now carrying it on the asian food aisle.

Greece is a land of vibrant cuisine. It is food that is neither spicy nor bland, but rich in the flavors of the Mediterranean. It is comfort food in the truest sense of the word.

My mother is a reader of Woman's Day Magazine (whose recipes I usually love) and she passed on these 2 ingredient recipe cards to me. Sure, some of them are a little odd and I will probably never, ever attempt, but there were a few that immediately grabbed my attention and I can't wait to try out! (Pineapple with coconut sorbet...:DROOL:)
If you want the actually cards to print out and some additional ideas: http://www.womansday.com/food/6577/2-ingredient-recipe-cards.html, http://www.womansday.com/food/6373/none.html

Last night I made this for all of us. For Baby J I pureed her portion and added some pureed carrots and peas. She gobbled it up.
