*Happy New Year's from Snapshot Fashion*

Today was a lazy day at home...which in turn resulted in making a stop motion fashion video with my husband. It's 100% silly...but, fun regardless! I have no idea how I roped him in to starring in it. Here we show you how we get ready for fun New Year's Eve parties. What to wear, what to wear. The options are endless.




The real kicker is that we have no NYE plans for tomorrow night. A quiet night at home, making some yummy food, drinking some bubbly, and watching the hilarity of Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin while they count down to the new year. What are your plans???

Top 10 Makeup Looks of 2011

I'll be honest with you...I'm not the best at doing my makeup. Over the last few years I have definitely improved my makeup application abilities. I think that this is probably because I have been so inspired by so many celebrities and other bloggers out there. Here are my TOP TEN favorite looks of 2011---

10) Gwen Stefani

9) Amanda Seyfried


7) Zoe Saldana

6) Zooey Deschanel

5) Lauren Conrad

4) Taylor Swift

3) Rooney Mara


1) Freida Pinto

Do you agree with those that made it on my list? Who would be on your list???



Must Haves- Shoes

A girl can never have too many shoes in their closet. Am I right ladies? Footwear really does pull an outfit together and gives it a finishing touch. Here I compiled some of my favorite shoe styles out there right now. So if you are in need of a new pair of kicks try one of these in my collage below...I guarantee you will get compliments!

This bag has been at the TOP of my year-long/ christmas list ever since I saw it in a paparazzi pic of Zoe Saldana. It is such a great, structured bag!!!!

This year Christmas has been a bit of a blur, a bit too fast due to school assessment and exams. The only Christmas-y thing I've done so far is dump loads of cinnamon on my cappuccinos. Pretty sad, huh. LOL.

Holiday Outfits

Christmas is upon us! My husband (and dog) and I celebrated Christmas this morning. It was so great! My husband got me some great clothing, jewelry, and an awesome handbag & wallet. One of my gifts was an adorable skirt from H&M that I will definitely be wearing Christmas day (I'm sure a picture will be following shortly...so stay tuned!).

I thought it would be a great idea to put some fun holiday looks together for my readers. Click on the collages below to see where you can purchase these items---

We'll be heading to my husband's parents' house in Long Island tomorrow and then off to my husband's aunt and uncle's house in Queens on Sunday for the holiday. Lots of driving this weekend...but it should be a good time. And then we are celebrating the holidays with my parents next weekend. Busy, busy!

What are your plans for Christmas? What will you be wearing?

I had my last exam today. I'm really more than just tired right now.

Gift Guide- Stocking Stuffers

I know when I was younger I LOVED getting small gifts in my Christmas stocking. You have to admit, a lot of great gifts come in small packages. Here are some stocking stuffers that will make the holidays even more special...

I adore Benefits Cosmetics...especially their sets. Their Big Beautiful Eyes set is one of my all time favorites! It comes complete with shadows, powdered liner, brushes, and concealer. You don't have to be a professional to get your eye makeup looking stellar...this set comes with some easy to follow directions which makes it simple to look amazing!

Philosophy has great smelling 3 in 1 products (shampoo/conditioner/body wash). One of my favorite scents has to be cinnamon buns. Yes, cinnamon buns! Need I say more?

I love getting Christmas ornaments for gifts. So many of them on my tree right now were gifted to me. There are some adorable foodie ornaments at Sur La Table. Doesn't this chocolate covered strawberry ornament look delicious?!?!

In my book tights make a fantastic gift! Yeah, I know I have a legwear obsession...but trust me, you can never have too many tights. ModCloth has some adorable options. These Grey Peacock Feather Tights are one of my top picks.

Carey in W Magazine

To be completely honest I really don't know all that much about Carey Mulligan. What I do know is that I adore her style, and think she is just as cute as a button. When I came across this recent shoot for W Magazine I had to stop in my tracks.


Could this girl be more photogenic??? Breathtaking, right? Gosh, I wish I could pull off short hair like her (I tried it super short once when I was 16...not a good look on me...at all).


To see more photos from this shoot stop on over to W Magazine. What do you think of this shoot???
