Our little pup is now 5.5 months old and I signed his second modeling contract! It is for a company called Dear Doggy based in L.A. They sent him this preppy blue bow tie and although I put it on upside-down (oops) I think he still looks mighty dapper in it!
What a wonderful Christmas I had! I’m so very excited to announce that I am engaged to the love of my life!!
A proposal on my favorite Holiday (Christmas Eve) was more than I could ever ask for.. oh and a Nikon D5300 camera.. a very nice prop to help with the surprise of a lifetime.
Nico and I (& Freddy) are more than thrilled to start on this new journey in our lives.
Many bests & Happy New Year! 2015 is starting to look like a wonderful wonderful year!

This is our Holiday greeting card! Another thing about growing up and living on your own — is sending out these cards to the special people in your life… I love doing that. I even sent one to Freddy’s breeder with a small note updating her about him =) I know its something I would appreciate, so I hope she did too. Merry Merry!
How Fred slept after our Christmas Eve-Eve ugly Sweater party. PAWS up!
There are so many boxes out there lately – it’s the new thing (or I’m just jumping on the bandwagon now). I’m talking a monthly subscription box filled with makeup, filled with bras, a box from a stylist (I got Nico trunk club), a box for your cat, a box for your fishing loving brother (Mystery Tackle Box), a box for shaving (Dollar Shave club), food boxes (Plated), natural product boxes, Vegan snack boxes… the list goes on!
So I haven’t got a box for myself (yet), but I’m loving getting them for other people, especially those on my Christmas list— Because seriously it is already in a box – you just need a bow to go on it!
Freddy is a model puppy or a “Celebripup” for PUPBOX. You can use his special code and get 15% off (Freddy15). So, this is his first month with the box and so far, we’re loving it. In his Holiday Box, he got 2 toys, puppy vitamins (chicken liver flavor), differnt types of healthy training treats, and the best part is it is targeted to his age group – so Freddy being 5 months old, I got tons of training tips geared to his age — practicing Come When Called, for example!
It’s so cute when he gets it and I let him open it himself –totally need to take a video next month =)
What box will you try this month? Or what have you tried already? Let me know – I am sure there are a thousand more out there that I haven’t even heard of yet.
I am sure by now most of you have heard about the new beauty craze. It’s called 3D Lash mascara! I was skeptical myself. I mean I have tried Sephora’s “best seller” extension fiber mascara and all I got was a clump of white specks.
However, this mascara has BLACK fibers.. genius, right? I don’t know why people made white fibers to begin with? Anyways, if you know me, you know I wear minimal makeup and the only time I wear more makeup is if someone is applying it for me! ahhh those runway days…. BUT if I can apply this mascara and make it look like I have full amazing lashes- then you better believe you can too! This is my first try – I hear it gets easier and more amazing with a little bit of practice… and practice I will —for all the Holiday parties I got going on =)
