One of the main things that I do in the summertime is reading! I absolutely love it and I am always looking for new books to read. Unfortunately, it's super hard to find interesting books! I use my wonderful nook to read books, and I've started to just get samples of books so I can determine whether or not I want to actually buy the books! Here's what I've read so far this summer.

2. I came across Sorority Sisters when I visited Barnes and Noble in June, and I was pleasantly surprised by it! It was about the friendship of a group of girls in California and I had a great time reading it.

3. The Fixer Upper is such a chick-lit book, but it got a lot better as it went along! It's about a lawyer who is forced to move to Georgia when her boss frames her for political bribery. She ends up renovating an old house that her family owned. It sounds ridiculous but I liked it!

4. Gone Girl. All I can say is BEST BOOK EVER. I am completely serious, I am so so so obsessed with this book it's not even funny. When I finished it, I was in a state of shock for the 24 hours following. I could not stop talking about it. It's about a kidnapping/murder case...that's pretty much all the information I can give away without giving too much away! READ IT!

5. I'm currently reading American Wife. The author, Curtis Sittenfield, wrote the popular book Prep, so I was interested to see what else they had written! It's very good so far, and I hope to finish it soon!

Other books that I have downloaded previews of are The Next Best Thing, Heat Wave, Summer Breeze, Savannah Blues, Something Borrowed, and Beach Music! If anyone has any suggestions, PLEASE let me know! I know we are all looking for some great summer reads!

Stay Fabulous!

Although I was disappointed that Andy Murray wasn't able tow win it for the home team, the Duchess of Perfection most certainly did not dissapoint.  She recycled several pieces from last summer:  her Joseph dress and jacket and her DVF leopard clutch.

Typically, I don't even think twice about NOT eating breakfast. I am usually not even hungry! But lately, I have been hearing things about how important breakfast is... A couple of days ago, I was watching my cooking idol, Ina Garten, make breakfast on The Food Network.  She was making these mouth-watering yogurt parfaits with peaches and honey.  Because I am not that into honey, I decided to create my own!  So... here is my take on the most important meal of the day (that I actually like to eat every morning):

First gather all your ingredients.  Pretty much everything is optional, depending on what kind of fruit you like.  I used vanilla yogurt, raspberries, strawberries, peaches, and granola.
