Spotted on the street: "Cutie-Pa-Tutu"

 Spotted these adorable little ladies walking down Columbus today.  The pink tule before me was a shot in the arm of pure HAPPY.
Cutie-Pa-Tutu
Over a hundred degrees today and perfectly dressed, I chuckled admiring this tiny tot ode to Carrie Bradshaw.
Opening scene - Sex In The City


I enjoyed walking behind them for a few blocks.  Each sister happily spraying their new squirt bottles from Bed Bath & Beyond.  Can you imagine being that young and carefree again?  Ah, when summertime was a fun popsicle-filled adventure!
And then they turned the corner out of sight - no doubt bringing smiles to the faces of a new group of admirers.

I try to soak it all in.

I get so much energy from the brilliant beauty I see all around me on my walks through the streets and parks of New York. The colors are beautiful and the lines and textures are nature's art! Enjoy:

Walking more than a mile in my shoes!



New York is run by walkers and cabs. I've acclimated quite well to the walking lifestyle. But having two doggies really just takes it to a different level.






I have a new pedometer so now I'm keeping track! Thank you Angie :)

Rasberryliciousness!

I am chair proud.
To say my creative juices are flowing as I decorate my second New York City apartment is an understatement.

When I moved to NYC in 2009, I decided to surround myself with happy, freshly lucious colors, whereas I usually have tried to make the living area attractive for both male and female friends. But with a studio that is 18' X 11' it's all about ME baby! And to know me is to know that I love saturated candy colors and calming pastels!


So this is my latest DEAL OF ALL DEALS! It's a pink velvet chair from Crate and Barrel. 1.5 years old - perfect condition, originally $800.

Isn't it RASBERRYLICIOUS?


And my adorable new embroidered pillow I found online is sooooo perfect saying: "Sit here and you'll be surrounded by hugs and kisses."










I think the arm covers are sweet with as they are delicately tucked to hug the curve of the arm.


Even the back lines are lovely! This chair looks pretty coming AND going! *grin*

Can you guess what I paid?
