Dreaming of...


My 24th birthday in L.A. in June
I'm so excited I could throw up! ...but I won't :)



These AMAZING Jeffrey Campbell "Lita" platforms from Shoestruck.com


This GORGEOUS broderie anglaise cotton skirt by Stella McCartney from Net-A-Porter.com



Both Neivz x Large black cross bar ring & purple O'Clock watch by 80's purple.com are going on my wish list as well!
I have been doing wayyyy too much online "window" shopping lately. I'm in limbo with still wanting winter clothing but falling in love with all of the SS11 lines! I can't tell you how many shopping websites I have bookmarked in the last 2 day...ay no. 

Anyway, I was listening to Pandora at work today, like I do everyday as that is the only thing that keeps me going (other that some yummy green tea), and one of the songs that came up from my "Cold War Kids radio station" was Talk Show Host by Radiohead. I remember the first time I heard that song. I didn't know what to think of it. Am I happy? Am I sad? All I knew is that that was one of the most beautiful songs I had ever heard. In my husband's words: "It's like a sunny, rainy day." I agree. Either way, I was hooked. So, I'll leave you with the video, and let you boil up some feelings. 


Oh, yea and it was in Romeo +Juliet with Leonardo DiCaprio & Claire Danes :)
I didn't even know since I heard that song way after this movie came out haha

Come Again? I need a cocktail...




I haven't had one in about 5 months, and let me tell ya,...I'm about to burst! Long days require relaxation; relaxation that I am somewhat lacking. Anyway, I love how all of the dead trees creeping up against my balcony make it look so artistic and whimsical. It was perfect picture taking weather!

NYE is coming up and I'm still questioning what my plans will be for the evening. I say dinner somewhere delicious, then a bar where I won't be able to drink the night away, but will enjoy watching others make complete fools of themselves in utter absurdity. Oh how I wish that could be me! Haha :) The hubby and I will definitely have a great night out!

Long sleeve top & printed skirt: Forever 21
Watch: Kenneth Cole

My Cup of Tea



Red Hot Cup of Tea is simply a play on words that made my brain go, "Hmm, interesting..." Make of it whatever you'd like. I'm of the kind that likes to dress accordingly to...whatever. I do occasionally wake up on the "wrong side of the bed", but "wrong" doesn't always mean bad in my world, just different. I take life as it comes and as it goes. I guess I'm unbiased-ask me for my opinion. I'll tell you.

This first posting is a reflection of my simpler days, lazy days, and traveling days (went back home for the holidays). I can sometimes be subjective when it comes to getting dressed or even on what kind of food I put in my body. Rambling now...music, shoes, bows, Parisian couture, world traveling infatuations, to be continued...
