Modern Day Cinderella #FashionFriday

Wouldn’t it be cool to be a Disney princess?  Come on, ladies, admit that you’ve thought about it at least once.

Sure, life isn’t all sunshine and butterflies for them, but they all get pretty dresses, have awesome, often animal friends, and always get the guy in the end.  The perfect guy.

Modern Day Cinderella

So I might not have the guy or many friends, but I have this dress.  I ordered this Jason Wu beauty a few years ago and when it arrived, it was one of those take your breath away moments it was so beautiful.

It’s not the easiest dress to wear out because it’s full and long and pretty much red carpet worthy.  Kelly Ripa even wore it to host the TV Land Awards once.  #whoworeitbetter

Modern Day Cinderella

I do wear it whenever I get the chance and sometimes I put it on just when I need to feel like a princess for a few moments.  It immediately transports me to a different world where all my dreams have come true.  This dress has power, guys.

I put it on after having my hair done (which is also a princess worthy indulgence).  I love going to Alex Emilio in Royal Oak to get my hair done.  Everyone there is so nice, especially my stylist Emilio (hi!)  My hair never looks as good as when I leave the salon, so I held an in house photo shoot.

Modern Day Cinderella

I paired the dress with a diamond pendant necklace and my crystal Christian Louboutins.  Now I just need somewhere to wear it …

Cinderella would be proud.

Dress: Jason Wu // Shoes: Christian Louboutin // Necklace: Tiffany and Company

    That looks like Jason made it for you! And your “glass” slippers are gorgeous. Hair and makeup to perfections as well! You need to go out looking like that and prince charming will show up! LOL!

    omigosh TOTAL Cinderella! That dress is beautiful on you and the amount of envy I have over your closet is ridiculous. I can’t even afford to buy new clothes that are like more than $20 lol

Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston a Still can't believe I got to meet Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul last night!  I'm a huge fan of both of them after watching Breaking Bad, and I love Dos Hombres mezcal 🍹  They are super nice guys and took their time chatting and taking photos with everyone there. I'm so thrilled I got to attend this event and that it was at the Waldorf, one of my favorite places 🌴💚 The signed and engraved bottle is a fabulous keepsake from an unforgettable evening ✨️
