pop. fizz. clink.

the glitz and sparkle of new year's is always my favorite.

i don't usually enjoy going out out tonight because of the cost, and i'm cheap :)

but i love a party at home!!

{i've never hosted myself, and its something i'd really like to do.

next year's my year. mark your calendars.}

camille styles and kate spade worked up a little party inspiration for us all. and if i were to throw a nye party, i'd certainly hope it looked at least a smidge this glam:

^  those are screaming my name.

i. will. be. having a white russian milkshake tonight.

vanilla ice cream with vodka and kahlua poured on top.

holy yum.

but i guess the party decor isn't 100% crucial to a great nye party.

this might be:

because who needs food?

just kidding.

i like food.

this is the fridge you have out in your garage.

but i'm actually really excited about my plans tonight.

going out with my dude, to a little get together.

i have a most fantastically badass outfit planned.

the snow just started here in kc and it's unloading...

not planned to stop until tomorrow morning!

and i really am planning on a white russian milkshake.

white russians, snow, sparkles and....my outfit = awesome.

{if my outfit turns out half as cute as i'm hoping, i'll share on instagram : @jabarrier. follow.}

happy new year's everyone!!!

see you bright eyed and bushy-tailed tomorrow morning ;)

i found another where-when-and-how to use those cute shell chandies (find more here).

too cute, right? i think this sealed the deal. getting one. or a two.

AND.................................

folks, i have disco fever.

amber @ my daily stop, amber interiors, (GO SEE HER if you're living under a rock.) did a post yesterday on disco balls. DISCO BALLS. i have one and have been wanting to hang it somewhere cheeky but didn't really know if i had the guts. she just pushed me over the disco edge and now i think i can i think i can!

in an unused fireplace. yesss.


in a book shelf. yes please!
this is what i'm going to do until i have a wee little girl of my own someday, and then it'll hang in her room.

and of course, the traditional hanging. but not in a disco. in a living room, bathroom, office, over a table, OR in your closet... anywhere your little sparkle-loving heart desires.

(all disco ball images found at amber interiors.)

*thanks for the encouragement, amber.

are we nuts, or do you kids like them, too?
