Golden Globes 2010!

Hey Everyone,

The Golden Globes last night was amazing , I actually watched it and I was happy with some of the winners. I wasn't so happy that HOUSE didn't win their category though :( boo . I thought some of the dresses were amazing. Let's not also leave the men out of the mix some were dressed fresh!.

Enjoy :)

Thursday!

Hi Everyone!

It's almost Friday and a lot has happened! I was able to go away to Md to spend a few days with my mom which was great! On a sadder note Haiti as we all know ( and we all should know) was hit with a 7.0 earthquake! I am not Haitian but my soon to be sis-in-law is and it was agony for her! Thank God her family in Haiti is ok. On a larger scale life is short, we shouldn't take for granted the water, food ,shelter,money and much more we have for granted. The Pictures for this tragedy or mind numbing! If it is $2 or even $5 ANYTHING is better than nothing , also check with your companies to see if they are donating. My husbands company is matching their employees donations by doubling the amount. We donated $60 and they contributed $60 totally $120 , it is not a lot but it is definitely something. Lastly make sure when you donate , it is to a reputable organizations such as the red cross and YELE ( Organization by Wyclef.) It is unfortunate that it is a traedgy bringing us as a people to donate to Haiti ( which is one of the poorest countries in the world), but it is still better than nothing.

On a happier note , I am looking forward to seeing what the Celebs will be wearing on the red carpet this weekend for the Golden Globes! I would love to see Marchesa , Jason Wu, DVF and Channel.

Kate Gosselin got some hair extensions in which I'm loving! I think it makes her look fun, happy and youthful! I wonder if her stlye of dressing will change , though with 6 kids I can kinda imagine how tough it would be to get out. However, when she makes appearances this new hairstyle could give her some life!

Maternity Chic!

Happy Monday Everyone!

***WINNER of giveaway has been announced! Congrats to Amy Horton!! She has been contacted! If I don't receive an answer by the 24 hour time frame is up a new winner will be chosen! Thanks to everyone for their entries once I hit 200! I plan to have another one so stay tuned! I didn't think I would hit 200 so early in the year but you all have been fab!***

I had a fab weekend visit with my Mother who doesn't live in the United States. So it was fun to catch up and chit -chat most of the way. Plus she gave the twins a fab Christmas gift a lil something to put in their college funds/savings, which was definitely a plus.

Recently, I have seen Amy Adams stylishly pregnant puts a smile on my face :) Sure I don't know none of these stars , but when they are pregnant it seems so cute because they seem just like everyday people. So I decided to check out pics of pregnant celebrities or celebrities who had been pregnant.

Looking online I thought Heidi Klum ( as usual :D ) Hiedi Klum will be debuting two lines for pea in a pod in February . Since I plan on introducing a maternity package to La Mode , I will be looking out for that to hit stores.

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz looked gorgeous pregnant. I was also please to find that Christian Sirianto, A favorite winner from project runway has a maternity line to debut in the Spring I believe. I will be looking forward to that , I think he is a great designer. I have a post on him in the works.

Amy Adams is getting a custom made maternity wardrobe from Carolina Herrera for her ! I wish that would be awesome, if I had something custom made when I was pregnant! She has been seem a lot lately while promoting for her new film leap year , which just hit the theaters this past weekend.

And Lastly, of course Angelina Jolie stunned me in 2008 , when she was 6months pregnant with the twins and wore a beautiful Max Azria green empire dress. I thought it was a gorgeous choice and it flattered her just right.

Enjoy the pics!

People's Choice Awards - Few Favs!

Hey Everyone,

After a very productive and fun first meeting with my La Mode interns! :) ( which I will post more about later.) I focused a little bit more on my favs from last night. I must say I was a tad bit disappointed , but I am reallllyy looking fwd to the Golden Globes on the 17th I believe. Seriously Diane Kruger , Taylor Swift and Olivia Wilde were my favs!

Diane Kruger is wearing a fab Herve Ledger Dress , Sorry not sure what Taylor Swift is wearing and Olivia Wilde who is rapidly becoming a fabulous fashion icon wore Monique Lhuillier.

If you watched the awards who, if any were your favs ?

J-LO HIT OR MISS?

Hey Everyone! ,

So I got an extra day off unexpectedly sweet! So speaking of NYE in my last post , I decided to briefly talk about one thing I personally felt was a MISS! I mean J-Lo looks amazing after having her twins! ( but which star doesn't after having kids) However , I think her stylist should have def choose something different for her to wear. Her ensemble kinda reminded me of the Avatar just without all the color lol.....

J-LO at the NYE in Times Square 12.31.09

Hit or Miss ? Let me know what you think!

P.S Don't forget to check out my GREATNESS post below for a sneak peak of whats in store for & La Mode...

GREATNESS!

Happy New Year Everyone!

I named this post Greatness because that is what I am working on for 2010!

I am refreshed and ready to go! , I have been reading everyone's blogs and their well wishes and I just love some of the blogging communities that I have found. I have so much this year that I'm looking forward too personally and with La Mode.

Firstly I would love to say a HUGE THANK YOU! to the amazing people who have taken the time to enter my giveaway its a fabulous giveaway! This year I plan to have at least 1 every 6-8 weeks or so , so please keep posted ... :) I am also working on visiting each of you that have blogs to become followers as well!! It's all about support!

My personal Goals include building a closer relationship with God! He blessed me so much last year, even when I was faithless and for that I am thankful. I also plan to be more organized!! lol and spend my time more effectively on my days off! I also plan to get in more date nights with the Husband and trying to spend wisely.

La Mode is already looking great so far! Some of my goals are to make my blog more interactive and I am also looking to upgrade the design :) and maybe moving to word press. To write posts often so you can look forward to coming on over!

I plan to hopefully have a certain amount of new clients :)

La Mode is going to have its first annual Benefit Concert /Fundraiser this year WOOOHOOO!!! I will be donating half of the proceeds to two charities LabakCare which provides health care and hope for the less fortunate kids in Africa and to Alex's Lemonade stand for Pediatric Cancer. Although I know no one who has been diagnosed with Pediatric Cancer it is something verrry dear to my heart!! So if you are in the PA,NJ,MD,DE Area this will be something to look forward to, or even if you live beyond the cause is worth it! More info in the next couple of months. I plan to make this annual event with a different Charity every year.

La Mode's Interns will be starting this week and I am super excited about that! I have so much planned for them.

Also look out because we will be introducing a maternity , post-maternity package & a kids package to our business!!!

These are a few of the things I am looking forward too :) If you haven't joined La Mode's mailing list, you can do so here to get informed of our specials , events , giveaways and much more.

So there is a little insight into what is going on in my head for this year!....

Now on to one of my fav subjects FASHION :) The red carpet is always fun and to kick it off this year Jan 17th is the Golden Globe ,People Choice Awards, The Oscars and the Goya Awards in February and much more...

Hope everyone had a splendid New Year's Eve!

Here is to greatness in 2010!
