New Year's Eve - Vlog Style

I received this little white technical device for Christmas last week called the Flip.  I have spent this entire week video taping almost every single thing we have done.  I have been throwing it in my purse at every chance I get, I mean why not? It is actually smaller than my cellphone!
Well, this year for NYE my husband and I decided to go out, get dressed up, and do something fabulous! So, we rented a hotel room at the Hotel Sorella at Houston's new City Centre and had a delicious dinner topped off with dancing in the park, fireworks, and cupcakes.  I thought this would be the perfect time for me to make my first Flip video.  I have to say it was pretty easy after downloading all of the clips straight from the camera and into iMovie.
I decided I would wear my own version of a tuxedo this year.  So I took my LBD, layered a bone colored, puffy sleeved blazer overtop, fastened my new bow tie from American Apparel, and slipped on my patent red pumps. I was ready for the festivities to begin!
Take a look at our New Year's evening and my first video with the Flip!! And once again, Happy New Year to All!!

My Outfit:
Dress - Kenneth Cole
Shoes - Jessica Simpson
Belt - Ann Taylor
Blazer - UO
Bow tie - American Apparel

Hello, me again! I was just watching your makeup tutorials (under your makeup section) and for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to comment on them because I'm a bit daft sometimes BUT I just wanted to say that you are even cuter on video camera! I loved hearing your voice, feels like we are having a real face to face convo! I also wanted to say that you remind me a bit of Jennifer Garner, you have her sweet, quiet voice. You are adorable!
