My $8 dress......................................................................


This weekend I am going to a political fundraiser cocktail party, the dress code is cocktail. I have some dresses that I could just wear again, but I thought I would go to a few stores and see what I could find before I decided. Lucky for me I found a fabulous dress that was on sale marked down to $8.99. Stay tuned for how I make $8.99 look like High fashion.

My Vintage Store Finds................................

Gold link necklace, $7

I have loved Thrift Stores since the beginning of time. I have fond memories of my friend Wynter and I going to the thrift store several times a week so we could have a new outfit to wear to school. Recently a really stylish co-worker of mine told me about a vintage store in Charlotte. So today was my first time going, and I was blown away by the jewelry, clothes, furniture and artwork. I have found my new favorite store. Here are the three things that I picked up today.

La tarte tropézienne

Have you ever heard of La Tarte Tropézienne? If you're ever in the south of France you should stop by their boulangerie / patisserie / salon de thé. 


It is also the name of their famous cake. I wanted to try it so I got the smallest one (they called it the bébé - the baby!). It was too sweet for me.


But some people love this stuff... that's why they also sell huge ones (on the left). 


They make everyone's favourite macarons, too. Don't they look good? With all the move-related stress we've had in the past few weeks, I'm so ready to go back for a short holiday!


P.S. We finally got internet in our new home! It's far from perfect - think: cable spaghetti - but I couldn't wait for the hi-tech solution that my husband's planning, I just had to get online. It was torture, not having proper access and I missed blogging. Thank you for coming to visit and comment, even when I couldn't return the favour. It will take me a while to get back into it because I'm still busy with the house but I look forward to visiting your blogs again! 

Maybe she’s born with it...maybe its Marie Claire!

  Team Elite extended our Fashion Week marathon by heading down to the Marie Claire/Maybelline pop up shop in London’s Covent Garden for a day of scouting (and self indulgent makeup shopping!). we somehow managed to distract ourselves from the exclusive new Maybelline collection to hit the streets and the shop floor on a mission to find our very own future cover star...
