le fashion: November 2008

Saturday, November 29, 2008

This was one of the surprises I had mentioned before. I had the honor of being interviewed by one of my favorite Online Fashion Magazines, a blog that is always on top of the trends; Forever in Fashion.

You can view the rest of the photos (and read) the full length interview here.

As for my Holiday weekend.. Thanksgiving went really well. I did, however, eat a little more than I should have. I could barely move afterward. We had:

Turkey
Pork, Yuca, Black beans and rice (it's a Cuban thing)
Stuffing
Salad
Rolls
Sweet Potato "mash" (by me)
And my Pumpkin soup
Pumpkin pie for dessert, along with chocolate almonds and cherry pie
There were enough leftovers to eat it all again last night, even. Wow!

What I've done over the long weekend so far:

Went shopping and found 3 great pairs of shoes; hugely on sale. My favorite? A pair of Nine West ankle booties in black patent leather goodness.
Had a picnic in the middle of the Everglades National park.
Took a lot of outfit photos, courtesy of the hubby and my brother.

Hoping your Holiday was a lovely one! And again, thank you Forever in Fashion for the beautiful layout and inclusion of my interview on your page.

Update!

I will be posting something new later today, sorry, it's just that things have been so hectic with the Holidays, family parties and such. I promise to update really soon, by tonight, most definitely! ♥

I have seen Napoleon Dynamite at least 20 times ... and counting.
I love re-reading old fashion magazines, never know when you might get re-inspired!
I find cooking to be just as fun and enjoyable as Fashion is for me.
I can't ever pass up a piece of cheesecake, especially when graham cracker crust is involved. Yum.
I finally saw Wall-E. I love him. I love Eve. Best movie EVER! Get it, if you haven't already done so.
