Proud Wife...

YOU GUYS!!! I'm so proud of my super duper talented hubby Benjamin :) Check out the helmets he designed, featured on The View last Friday... SO COOL!!

Ahhhh! I'm so proud. They're available at Target NOW! Yippee! Check out their website: www.raskullz.com

Emmy Night!

We weren't allowed to bring cameras to the Nokia theater and in my frantic rush to get ready we didn't have time to take pictures before leaving so this is the best I could do... Thank you iphone. I'm glad I switched to the dark side.


Off to the Emmys. Or Schmemmys as they call them.

I ended up in the pale pink Goldie dress

With the Fendi "Cinderella" shoes and a Betsey Johnson rainbow sequined clutch.

On the red carpet with the girls... Ben's Executive Producer's wife Beth Savino, and his Line Producer, Janelle Momary- Neeley 

The line for the red carpet... can you spot any celebs?

Ryan Seacrest. The man, the myth, the legend.

There's a few here... Miranda Crossgrove and the pretty red head from Mad Men

Mel B in some fierce shoes

I don't know her name but she's on Parenthood and I think she was in SwimFan. haha

Andy Samberg. ♥

Little Seth Green who ended up beating us out of the Emmy

There is nothing quite as humbling as waiting in line to walk the red carpet only to get there and have all the photographers ignore you. HAHAHAHA. I mean, if you ever need your ego checked, I highly suggest it.


I met Kathy Griffin who I love and who was so sweet and as you can see... is VERY tiny.

Neil Patrick Harris won his first 2 Emmys! I love him and also got to meet him at the after party. I may have geeked out on him a bit ;)

The after party...

Where I pretended to win the Emmy for best shoes. I mean... I would have. 

Thank you guys SO much for all your opinions the other day! You guys are the best. It was a close one between the pink and navy dress but I had to go with the shoes. I hadn't had a chance to wear these yet and this was the perfect excuse. :)

Third Year's A Charm!

Today is my 3 year wedding anniversary. Time FLIES by... it's crazy.

I am so lucky to be married to my best friend and the best guy I've ever met. I can't even believe how in love I am and how happy we are together. :)

Here are some photos from our wedding that took place exactly 3 years ago. Our ceremony was at 5:30pm

YUM!!

Check out my cell phone... I bejeweled it myself. haha The bridesmaids shoes were Betsey Johnson and mine were Badgley Mischka. I wish I would have made the time to design my own shoes but I just felt really overwhelmed by the idea and felt like there was too much pressure. That's my only regret from my wedding though. But I do love the shoes that I wore!

A close up of the shoes...

I wish I had more photos of them to show you. Maybe I'll look through all the photos and post a clearer shot.

What an amazing day. And every day since has been so much fun. I love you Benjamin.

Puppy Love

So you all know by now that I love to show off my hubby's amazing talents, so I have to show you this

Those are some dog portraits he's done for gifts for friends and commissions. So cute!!

:)

YAY!

This is a little sneak preview of the cartoon my husband has been working on for the past year. He's the art director on this project and has been working so hard. I am so proud!! It comes out in February so keep an eye out all you moms and dads :)

Pretty cool, huh??

Have You Met My Husband??

I just want to take a minute to talk about my husband, Mr. Benjamin Soto.

I'm almost 2 years into this blog and I still think of it as just a conversation between my friends and I. I often forget that there are countless strangers passing by, and though I truly consider my readers my friends- I realize that many of you don't know me in "real life".

That being said, you don't know much about my husband and I often just assume that you do.

Those of you who DO know me, feel free to skip this post because I'm sure you're tired of my gushing about Ben by now. ;)

Ben is a ridiculously talented ______. I don't want to say graphic designer or artist or t-shirt designer or inventor or painter... he's all of those things and more. He's currently working at Disney as the art director of a new cartoon show.

ANYWAY-

My Benjamin does things like this, just for fun:

He is so silly! I was in NY when he sent this little doodle over and it just made me so happy!

Then- he does things like this:

Yep. He takes pictures of his outfits every day. (hopefully he forgives me for showing this!)

He doesn't do it for blogging purposes, he just does it. I had no idea he was doing it until I heard the timer beeping on the camera one morning (he leaves the house super early while I'm sleeping) and went to investigate. BUSTED! He has tons of them too. Amazing.

Check out his website! www.benjaminsoto.com You'll probably be surprised at how much he's done that you'll recognize.

Just wanted to give a little shout out to my baby. Here are some of my favorite pictures of us...

Love and Shoes.

Ben and I went to our good friends Mark and Gigi's wedding and I was very pleasantly surprised at how many great shoes I saw! I became that creepy friend taking pictures of girls feet all night. Ha ha.

But seriously- Gigi is a very stylish girl, so I shouldn't have been surprised by all her cute friends. Gigi wore my favorite shoes of the night- nude Valentino d'orsay pumps with a big oversized bow. I was honored to hep her pick them out months before her big day. :)

She wore a beautiful vintage inspired knee length lace dress and she looked absolutely perfect!

(Paris Hilton knocked these off)

We had so much fun! Ben wore a Marc Jacobs seersucker suit and I wore a Diane Von Furstenberg dress and YSL shoes.

Here are some of my favorite shoes of the evening... Most of which are surpprisingly affordable!

I even saw a girl wearing a pair of Harajuku Lovers shoes. I was very excited!

(Report Signature)

(Middle pair- Bakers... on sale right now)

If I find out who any of the other shoes are by I'll update. :)
