My favorite Twitter drinking buddy Michelle said this reminds her of me. I have no idea why. I I am innocent…

Might have something to do with my Badass, slightly naughty Christmas List and admitting to umm, dating around. It’s called being single and having FUN, right? Right.

In NICE NEWS, (Santa, can you hear me? I’m totes nice!)

I participated in the lovely Micaela’s Ornament Exchange. I was a blog exchange/swap virgin! It was so fun! I sent off an ornament and some Christmas Pop Rocks to EQ in NYC (whom I blog crush on p.s) and I just got my ornament from Carly at A Girl and Her Blog!! Look! LOVE!

{I wanted to show you the cute owl in the corner! (And my Essie. lol)}

Carly got it at a Fair Trade store…it’s called a “Bird of Hope”

Hope has kinda been a theme around the blogosphere this week. We aren’t losing hope. Thank you sososo much Carly! OH AND! She also sent me this really cool purple ring that I will show you next time I’m holding a martini. Which I’m sure will be soon, like this weekend. Yay.

Ok now I’m totally ready to play Santa. Winner Time!

The Winner of the Ruffle Tunic from Dyanahar is Mara at M Loves M (TWINS! We can rock em around L.A together!)

and

The Winner of the membership to Emompreneurs.com is Treacle at Stockings Addict Lingerie Blog

Yay!! We’ll talk.

I love you guys. This week I am really feeling the blog love, both online and when I check my “real” mail…it’s amazing and wonderful and here is just a little bit of what I’m talking about…

{I spy…some favorite bloggy friends under my tree. Fabulous. Thank you!}

How can I be a Grinch? You guys won’t let me!

More giveaways next week! Giveaway hooker in the house. I totes should have done “The 12 Days of Christmas” giveaways, that would have been cute…but I didn’t, so yeah good talk…

Happy Weekend!

Can we talk about beauty for a hot minute? I keep forgetting I’m a make-up artist and start talking about my feelings and crap. zzzzz

This weekend I am DYING to get YSL’s new mascara-Mascara Singulier. I’ve mentioned my bff/main gay Istvan before…

{Circa last year, Cafeteria, NYC…breakin rules, but havin fun.}

Istvan-NEIMANS! ASK FOR IT! GO!

{Daddy recommended. We shall see.}

In other beauty news, Perricone M.D’s Cold Plasma?! Due to new bloggy rules, I have to disclose that they sent it to me for free. OK?! EVERYONE GOT THAT? HOWEVER! I never sell out up in here so rest assured I would never blog about it if I didn’t love it. I put too much on the first night and freaked to Brooke, but now that I’ve been using it correctly and not like a toddler for a week my skin is crazy smooth and glowing. I’m going to give it another week to do a full review, but since there are mad Cold Plasma giveaways going on…you should enter them ALL. Whore yourself out for this one, it’s worth it! And it’s $150, ya’ll! FIVE of my favorite girls are giving it away…5x to win! Do it! Do it!

Gabby, Summer, Midtown Girl, Oh, Mishka and Blog Goggles yay!

If I missed you, let me know…

Moving right along…got this in my email yesterday!!!

From Missy at oh missy me…um, talk about sunshine! Thank you! I love it and you! If you guys don’t read her blog, you must go say hello to this darling girl. Seriously. LOVE!

And then! Diana at Our City Lights snuck this print I’ve been coveting as a surprise for me in a package she sent to Gabby today! My jaw dropped! Diana is CRAZY talented and her Etsy shop is blowing up…so proud of her. Thank you again love.

{You Are My Everything…You are now MINE hee hee}

Thank you for all the comments on my last post…I hope I didn’t come off sounding like I’m a perfect friend, or bitter because I never want to discount the amazing friends I do have…life happens and hopefully we are lucky enough to have great girls by our side. I consider myself very lucky. Speaking of…one of my best’s has crossed over to the dark side and started a blog!!! Don’t you love it when that happens?! I mentioned Kate in this post about the friends I cherish, and now you can get to know her too! Welcome her to our crazy world at I Am Kate Owens…

So tonight (Friday) I’ve made it a point to make a date with another one of my nearest and dearest! A girly date of the best kind with margaritas, Mexican food and girl talk! It took writing that post for me to realize that sometimes I need to step my game up too. 2 way streets and all.

Saturday I have date with someone of the, ehem, penis variety. I don’t know what we’re doing yet but we always have fun, and I feel like getting dressed up and taking pictures!

What are you guys up to this weekend?! Has anyone tried the new YSL mascara? Did it “repave your road?” haha

Happy Friday loves!

XOXO,

Liz

P.S. If my blog is out of commish this weekend, it’s because my new design is going up! BOOYA!

Friday already…all I have to say is “yay!” Pretty much sums it up, no?

Last night was Fashion’s Night Out in NYC…and I’m not gonna lie, I had to pull myself away from the every-3- second- fabulous Twitter updates to have a pity party. With some Sangria from a bottle I did manage to grab this photo of MK and Ashley handing out lemonade. WERQUE. I read a “tweet” that someone tried to tip MK…because I’m totes sure she needs that extra $2. I die.

{Via Cutblog}

All snarkyness and bitter Betty-ness aside, this was a phenomenal evening for the industry that I work in, am obsessed with and love. If you are unfamiliar with what FNO is-

“In a global initiative to promote retail, restore consumer confidence, and celebrate fashion, U.S. and international editions of Vogue are coordinating evening extravaganzas in their respective world fashion capitals.”

BADASS. FTMFW!…thanks Lilu, for coining a “term” I will most def play out in no time.

You know what makes me a non-bitter Betty? YOU. Just sayin…

Ok. Focus. Kristin…I got my mail today and let’s just say, my pumpkin spice latte’s will be on her for awhile. But the card is really what brought the smiles and “awwws“! We’ll be back in a hot minute with a shoe post similar to our LBD post…often imitated never duplicated ha! LOVE HER and treasure her!!

And, as always, The Badger Colony. I don’t know how 3 girls who have yet to meet (soon!) can just hold it down for each other day in and day out, but we do. So to Brooke and Mayra…thank you. Love you. Friday means textapaloooooza!

Ok le mush…I’m getting teary…thank you SO much PMS, really, it’s been like a week. Throw me a bone jeez..But I digress!

{Random car pic of me cuz B likes it and the girl gets what she wants}

{Hmm…bloggy buddies becomin real lifers on the reg. I dig.}

This weekend is full of new bloggy friend FUN!!

I was asked by Sephora to attend an invite only event this Sat, bring friends, (preferably bloggers-we clearly rule) have our makeup done, a yummy lunch-basically be little diva’s for a few hours, and leave with some free goodies…in exchange for a write up on the event…um, didn’t take me long to say yes! I’m bringing with me some FABULOUS L.A girls you may be familiar with…

Jasmine at An Experiment in Poverty-I already met her not too long ago! She’s as fabulous as her blog and I’m super excited to hang out again!

My lil cuppycake Ali at The Way I See It

And of course, my wombmate, Ms. Gabby, She Wrote

The Fun Continues on Sunday…

With brunch with Charis of Dancing the Tightrope -also a fellow Five Lipstick Stains on Your Collar girl, and did I mention she’s newly engaged and moving away? Happy and Sad face all in one sentence…so super excited about meeting her FINALLY!!! We’re going to the nutella crepe place I met Jasmine, Kathleen and Carina at. I don’t care what else they have there. I only have eyes for Nutella.

Longest post ever…Winner winner time! Stay with me dolls…

Big virtual hug to the amazing, gorgeous, sweet, etc, etc Leigh at Jkldesigns and Create for partnering with me on this giveaway. The response was phenomenal! I am still lusting after every single one of her pieces, so if you didn’t win, I say, we should totally buy out her shop anyway! Who’s with me?

I decided to have John, our new roommate, pick a name…here he is…he’s the bomb, he brings me coffee everyday and is always down for an impromptu “PYT” dance party in the living room!

{as these are the two ways to my heart ya’ll}

{Say hi to John! What up John.}

Sooo…Aritza, Goddess Of Sarcasm and Unfinished Sentences…you are now the Goddess of a JKL Design piece of amazingness!!!!! Yay! Let me know which one you want…decisions, decisions!!!

Don’t be discouraged…you should know by now I always have a lil somethin somethin on the way for my peeps…Sephora giveaway? WHAT?

Happy Thursday lovelies!

Sooo…I’ve decided to go prance around online and see what happens! Thank you for sharing your stories and thoughs. I will DEFINITELY be blogging about my online dating adventures. Maybe I’ll start a weekly series or something, at the very least for entertainment value! I am doing my best to get back to all of you who commented on this post, I really appreciate your insights and know it’s personal to many of you…so I’m comin!

Isn’t this picture SO CUTE? I adore her.

I got a little frustrated last night at the blogosphere…but the situation has been resolved, and I think this is the perfect time for some link LOVE.

I feel like the baby jesus of blogland giveways is raining down upon us…did that even make any sense? There seem to be so many fabulous giveaways going on right now, so I want to give you a heads up to three of my favorite blogs/girls!

First, Dream Sequins is doing a giveaway so amazing, thoughtful and detailed I can’t even describe it, so you must go check it out…and you better hurry. Like go right now, the clock is ticking! It’s in honor of her 100th post! Dream Sequins is one of my new favorite blogs-she covers emerging fashion designers and stores, and is really just an all around doll.

Next, my lovely Iva at Iva Messy is doing two giveaways right now…one is a super cool printed scarf that I want, so actually don’t enter (kidding, goooo), and the other is a surprise!

Also, Ms. Chrystina at Whimsical Rose has a NARS giveaway happening in celebration of her 100th follower! Congratulations, darrrrrling!

Have you guys met my friend Daniel at Man, that’s fraiche! yet? I’ve mentioned him in a few of my posts…and now he has a blog! He is super unbeweavable-loves fashion, art, architecture, wine, CHEESE…If you like any of the above, I think you should stop by and say hello! He had me at “cheese.”

In Unbeweavable news, I have a huge hair post coming! I’m really excited! I’m wondering-WHAT HAIR QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? Let me know, and I’ll get them answered for you-I’m working with my fabulous celeb stylist on this one! This post will also include a fab giveaway, but I’m gonna let my girls shine for now!

I got my bangs back! Pictures coming in hair post! It was one of those spur of the moment things and I had images of Zooey Deschanel floating in my head, because you know how much I am obsessed with/want to be her.

I hope you all have a fabulous day!

GO LAKERS!!!

xoxo, Liz

This doesn’t mean that I’m not going to cry like a baby and don’t already have a bottle of wine reserved for the evening. Ahh, coping skills.

-Airborne Toxic Event. Love them. Can’t stop listening to them.

AT&T is a horrible, horrendous company. Not so much the Wireless division, although I don’t really know, as I have Verizon. Home internet/phone…I can’t even tell you how lame of a company they are. I know they won’t be around much longer, chapter 11 has just GOT to be around the corner if not already…what happened to customer service?!

I’ll spare you the re-hash of the entire week of our back and forth, but allow me to share AT&T screws Liz-the Weekend Edition. ENJOY!

Friday evening (remember their shenanigans started on Monday, dolls) -”I PROMISE we will have someone out to your house on Sunday from 8-5“-AT&T idiot manager. Having resigned myself to a weekend without internet and being busy anyway, I plan on a Sunday laying out on my dock, tanning, texting, twittering and fbing on my phone (junkie style) and waiting for the magical AT&T technician to come and restore my hopes and dreams.

This morning I wake up…at NOON haha (late night) and still, no technician man. Sooo…I call….for the 50th time this week- only to be told-”We actually don’t do house calls on Sundays, ma’am, someone gave you incorrect information.” Um…WHAT? I swear to baby jesus I thought I was in the Twilight Zone.

There comes a point in situations like this that no amount of Colombian temper, or sweet talking or LOGIC can help, so I make the apt. for Monday (tomorrow), think of arranging my schedule so someone can be home all day and attempt to make the best of my Sunday, hey at least I’m off house arrest, right?

So I’m whisked away in a brand new BMW with a brand new boy (ohhh) to Newport for sun and sushi, forgetting about AT&T, except to call Chrystina to tell her the latest (poor bestie has had to hear me rant and rave for a week)….and WHAT HAPPENS?!!!!

Phone rings. Random 714 number. Hmm…answer…and it’s an AT&T tech wanting to know if I’m home because he’s done with all his work for the day and saw that my order was the first for Monday. NO EFFERS, I’M NOT HOME! YOU TOLD ME TECHS DIDN’T WORK ON SUNDAYS IN MY AREA! You told me I could leave…deep breath.

Now, I’m a nice girl. Really. I realize that this kind man on the phone is trying to help. I bite my tongue and tell him calmly no, I’m not home (at this point, I just kind of want to cry and look at my date with such a helpless look in my eyes that he goes “oh my gosh Liz, are you ok?” -this amuses me awww.)…and tech-man says, “well let me just go by your house and see what I can do from the outside.” I say thank you, and honestly, don’t have any high hopes. Or low hopes.

But here we are, wireless connected!….no more flashing red lights on the modem that I often feared were going to send me, Gabby or Bella into an epileptic seizure…It amazes and saddens me that the hardworking technicians are probably the most intelligent and customer service oriented members of the entire AT&T family.

AT&T, you suck. Like, at life.

Anyways, I have SO much I’ve been wanting to blog about and share with you guys that I kinda feel like I might explode. I have also been so kindly tagged by a few of you, thank you so much!!! I can’t wait to do them!

I really want to thank Kathleen at Just a Small Town Girl for the award she gave me! Thanks Mama! XOXO I’ll pass on soon!Check out her blog-she’s so witty, honest and soooo gosh darn purdy! She’s Unbeweavable for sure!!! I pretty much just love her. And now I have a place to stay in VEGAS! haha

On an entirely different note, as I mentioned in previous blogs-I am a True Religion girl. They are my FAVORITE JEANS…and jeans are such a pain in the ass to find that once I found ones I loved, and made said ass look fierce, I stockpiled. I used to wear Joes as well…but stopped…until on Thursday I found THESE! Except mine are in the perfect gray, which I’ve been hunting for! Aren’t the signature Joes tags so adorable? It’s definitely the marketeer in me that loves things like TAGS. HA. I want to blow it up and put it over my bed…is that weird? Don’t answer that.

I hope all your weekends were lovely. I hope you put some sass in that ass! Expect lots of love from me!
XOXO, Liz

Happy Sunny Saturday dolls!!
It’s like 85 degrees here, and I’m about to go put my bikini on and hit my secret spot in Laguna-isn’t it gorgeous…but I’m not telling exactly where it is! Gotta work on the tan!! YAY! It’s Unbeweavable started when I was deathly sick at home in bed a few months ago…and it’s turned into something so amazingly fabulous that I hope will keep growing. I have met MY PEOPLE…YOU…it’s like this secret club of fashionistas and travelers and artists and marketeers all sharing their passions, and ideas and I love it.

I hesitate even writing this but here I go…It’s Unbeweavable will now be accepting advertising links. I’ve received a few offers and I’m going for it…just didn’t want my lovelies to think I was a sell-out or anything. The only advertising I will accept will fit the theme of my blog…so maybe you’ll find something fun. I like the idea of helping small businesses out, too.

If you’re interested in advertising on It’s Unbeweavable, or have questions about rates, please email me directly.

Now go have fun weekends…wow what a boring blog, sorry I won’t suck next time, PROMISE!!! XOXO, Liz
