Maybe it's much too early in the game
Ooh, but I thought I'd ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's eve?

Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it's exactly twelve o'clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year
New Year's eve

Maybe I'm crazy to suppose
I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of a thousand invitations
You received

Ooh, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance:
What are you doing New Year's
New Year's Eve?

follow her: @natashaislegit lol cause she's too legit to quit!
thanks for playing barbie dress up with me! always a damn good time with you my PIC!

words of wisdom from the make up QUEEN:
"Don't feel like wearing makeup? Do your lips up, girl! A sexy pout is the easiest way to look alive, even when you might not be feeling it! Bold lips take some courage but if you can rock it, flaunt it. Here are some of my favs that get me through the horrid makeup days. Miss Natty Nat signing off - Enjoy!"

What I Wore: Holiday Party @ Seven-Degrees

Natasha and I threw an amazing holiday party for our company at Seven Degrees in Laguna Beach. The venue was SO gorgeous! Our theme was winter wonderland/casino night and the Sutando guys were nice enough to be our paparazzi for the night!







PHOTOBOOTH FUN:





Deets on me:

[dress: blaque label, heels: bakers, bracelet + earrings: f21, clutch: aldo]

The dress might look flowy but it's uberly tight underneath, so be prepared not to eat for the night if you're going to purchase.

Fashion Tip Friday: The Perfect LBD

[Gucci Belted: $1695, Nina Lace: $1919, Zac One Shoulder: $990]

You can never ever have too many Little Black Dresses. It's a fashion MUST HAVE. You can pile on the accessories with your LBD or choose to wear a bold color heel but no matter what you decide, it'll work just fine. With all the Christmas parties and New Year's celebrations coming up, I'm sure having a go-to LBD will save you hours of stressing out about what to wear.

And to answer the question above: I'd go with lacy Nina first, then long sleeve Gucci and one-shoulder Zac last.

fashion faux PAW

Blake Lively




Sarah Jessica Parker

I love Christian Louboutin anything and everything.. BUT I really don't see how having paw feet is cute. Love SJP and Blake Lively but it doesn't even really look good on them SO I think I can live without these in my life. It's a different kind of RAWR that I don't think I can handle. OH AND BTW. If you did want to purchase the paw heel, it's going to cost you about 5k. Happy shopping!
