Stressed – I have a charity dinner this Sunday that I need donations for and I’m just now asking for them!
Worried – About my son. He’s 13 and moody and I worry that there’s more to it than hormones.
Sore – I have a minor tear in my neck which I guess is not serious but still adds discomfort.
Happy – That my charity group is starting a new year with a lot of fun projects coming up!
Thankful – That everyone is well.
Thinking – Way too much about everything…
Happy – My brother is visiting and may be moving down permanently.
Worried – He won’t have a place to live.
Glad – I live in Florida even though it was really cold last week it was not as cold as most of you were.

It seems like we just saw this movie and it’s already on to release next month! I can’t wait! I took my daughter to see it around Thanksgiving and we both really enjoyed this movie. I’m looking forward to seeing it again and again. It was a great story and left us laughing and crying.

This is a guest post.
Kim Kardashian’s wedding to Kris Humphries was celebrated around the world. The photographs of Kim’s special day featured in various media publications and cemented her position as one of the world’s most popular celebrities. Wearing a fabulous white wedding dress that made her look every inch the princess, Kim looked beautiful and so too did her bridesmaids. When preparing for a wedding there is a lot to organise but the biggest choice for any bride has to be the wedding gown. Most brides choose to wear white, but is black a modern alternative?
The bride doesn’t have to wear white
When looking for beautiful couture wedding dresses in New Jersey, white is the tip of the iceberg. There is no such thing as just ‘white’ anymore. You can choose ivory, off white, ice white or vintage white for starters. Then there are the more adventurous colours such as pink, red or even black. When planning a completely different wedding, roles can be reversed. Why not have the groom and his wedding party in white tuxedos with his wife-to-be donning a black wedding dress? By choosing a black couture gown, a bride will certainly stand out from the crowd and be remembered for many years to come.
Black is unique for a wedding gown
White has been the colour of choice for brides for hundreds of years. It was seen as a symbol of her purity and innocence. In modern days, this is less of an issue and so if a bride wants her wedding to be completely different, her gown can be partially or entirely black. Gothic Chic continues to be popular not just at weddings but other formal situations. If a bride wants to stand out in her photos, a black gown can be chosen and she can inform her guests to avoid wearing this colour. Therefore, her gown will be unlike what anyone else wears.
Couture dresses are available in many styles
As with other dress styles, a couture gown can be bought in many designs and styles. The bride could choose a long and flowing couture black dress with or without a long train or a figure hugging design with corset bodice. If a woman has an hourglass figure, choosing a wedding dress that clings tightly to her body is a great idea to emphasis curves and gives her the wow factor.
Bridesmaids can wear black
When Kim Kardashian married Kris Humphries, she had many bridesmaids that all wore the same colour. Not only can a bride have a black wedding gown but the dresses that her bridesmaids wear can also be the same colour. The same design can be chosen for each bridesmaid or each bridesmaid could wear a completely different style. To continue with this colour scheme, the bouquets the bridesmaids carry could also be black.

I have not made up my mind yet as there are so many things to choose from. But I’m real thinking about these dragonfly earrings. Are they not pretty? I love to wear different, dangly earrings. These are listed under the
peridot dangle earrings section. Under the Sterling Silver Jewelry from Peru I found these Andean Whirlwind earrings. Super cute!
Novica also carries a variety of clothing. I love these White Tops. They are all so pretty and would be perfect for Spring. Look at the detail of the lace. Just beautiful!
I just looked under the animal lovers section and I may have to change my mind about those earrings! They have a ton of owl figures. I’m a big owl fan! They have cute gifts for any animal and also for any personality!
There are a few holidays coming up and I’m sure you can find the perfect gift for your Valentine or Mother and don’t forget Dad in June! Novica offers many unique gifts, home décor, paintings and so much more. I received a really pretty purse last year and some cute earrings.
(The gift certificate expires Jan 26, 14 so be ready to spend it!)
