Our trip to LA was “work trip” but Melissa and I had a little down time for other things like riding the ferris wheel on the Sana Monica Pier, grabbing coffees on the Fred Segal patio, shopping at Melrose Trading Post (alongside Dexter and Deb Morgan) and helping our favorite entrepreneur decorate her new Beverly Hills pad. These are my favorite photos of our down time:

If we are Twitter friends you are probably sick of hearing me talk about the Worcester Swap. I just love our Swap location in the Canal District, the building is beyond beautiful. I asked Anne if she would do a quick little photo shoot with some of my blogger friends the day of the Swap, just to capture how much I love this building.  Jen and Julie posted their photos while Melissa and I were in LA, there was just a few more:

Limbo Fest was this past weekend and I was all excited to dress in my best music festival outfit…Then I remembered it was 80 degrees and I was working the festival not hanging out. So this was my second choice (less fussy) outfit.

I quickly realized I was bored with outfit posts after I made my New Years Resolution to take more outfits photos. With everyone and their mother being style blogger nowadays, its harder to see the point in showing you what I wear.  But with my stellar record of resolution completing,  I asked a friend who also has some goals to uphold if he wanted to help me with a little project. So over the next few months I will not only being showing you what I wore, I will also be giving you a photo tour of everything I love about this city.

Welcome to The Outfitted Worcester Project.

Location: Worcester Common
Reasons to love: Someday soon we will have a ice skating rink, the tree lighting ceremony every Christmas, Creepy Turtle Boy statue, The Midtown mall that is a flashback to 1982.

Quick pictures from the Oscar Tweet Up, which was my first visit to a Speakeasy.  Shoestring and Fafarazzi sure know how to throw a party. I wish I could get all dressed up to watch TV and play on Twitter every night.

The official pictures are here.

My friend Cassie and I attended a Boston Magazine party at The Ames Hotel last night. I pulled this dress out of Haberdash last minute because I was sick of everything in my closet. I wish I took a picture of the back. It has cute purple bows all the way down the back like the leopard Rodate dress. I also pulled out my DIY spike bag and stud jacket that Ive hadn’t worn since November. I was kinda over doing the DIY for a while, it needed a break.

I left for NYC the day after the Swap and still haven’t unpacked…I think I will save the Swap update for our new Swapaholic’s website that should be LIVE by the end of the week!!

Thank you all, for attending the Swap to benefit the Worcester Historical Museum. Also huge thanks to Alexis Grace for donating  a ton of beautiful clothing.

I was looking at old flickr photos yesterday and found my flickr “outfit” set had 1,132 photos and the last photo I took was in November. I’m pretty certain I’ve gotten dressed since then. I don’t know when or why I decided taking outfit pictures was too much work, but I miss it terribly. I supposed I’ve discovered my first New Years Resolution that doesn’t revolve around bacon or bunnies.

Wearing: Modcloth Dress, Mark Jacobs knit socks (thank you Cassie), Forever 21 caplet, GO Jane shoes (that Ive had for years and still cant walk in), and my pup Penny.

Hope you all had lovely a holiday!  Mine was filled with good friends and lots of family time,  I couldn’t have have asked for anything more. Thanksgiving always turns me in to a big sappy love bug. When I starting thinking about the things I have to be thankful for and realize the list never ends.  I get a little overwhelmed. I have had a pretty wonderful year and I’m really glad I had so many truly awesome people to share it with.

Now that sap-fest 2009 is over…I took Kyle to NYC on Saturday. He had never been, so we did all the touristy type stuff. Which I secretly enjoy as much as shopping….Just don’t tell the other fashion bloggers. It was nice to show him all the things I love about the big apple and I think he now understands why I never want to leave there.

Wearing: Chanel sunglasses, Rick Owens jacket, Haberdash ruffel blouse, DIY jeans, Vintage Boots, Sisley Bag and a fancy new hair color, thanks to Kate.

It’s official, I’m in love with my new Rick Owens Asymmetric  Jacket. It’s kinda like the when you meet someone for the first time and you know they will be a huge part of your life. When I tried it on I knew this jacket was going to be a huge part of my wardrobe. I just hope its not afraid of commitment.

Wearing: Rick Owens Jacket, from The Closet Boston, Necklace from Lilian Asterfield, Dress: Forever 21, Boots: Vintage, Bag: Haberdash Vintage

And in more important news, Penny had surgery this week and is recovering adorably:
