Happy Hump Day {Role Reversal}: Daisy Lowe

Remember the scandalous scandal that was Pearl Lowe and Gavin Rossdale’s love child? Everyone was flipping their lids and just wouldn’t drop it, despite the kid being a teenager and it happening way before Gavin was with Gwen, let alone knew her. But…I digress. What resulted from that tumultuous 80’s relationship was Daisy, a British model that is known best for showing off her tatas (none pictured, sorry guys) and dancing in lingerie for Esquire (video is hypnotizing, don’t really know why). And I like her. She seems like the type of chick that would be a great dancing/drinking partner, and I’m always looking for some of those. Please send all resumes to meli@melificent.com. ;)

What I Wore: Pinkie!

Oh gosh, I adore this dress so much. It was love at first sight when I spotted it at Kohl’s, and was so excited to wear it! I was thrilled I was able to sport it for a very special photo shoot with the lovely Rosy from Accidental Sexiness. Why were we doing a shoot together? Well, we have decided to join forces and create The Blogalicious Babes, a fun look through our eyes about celebrity, fashion and beauty in Miami and around the globe! We will be posting vlogs (video blogs) regularly, hosting charity events and hopefully bringing you great and interesting interviews. Sounds like fun? It will be! We are both very excited to share this all with you!

1. Sparkle Loafers

I love me some sparkles, especially when they are on my feet! These little loafers are so fantastic, and they are so affordable over at Tobi. I’m really sad that other people look at the site as well because there is only one size left and it is most definitely not mine. Commence Internet stalking of said shoes.

What I Wore: Go Jane Wedges

With weddings comes a lot of events, which means a lot of outfits! This can get pretty painful on your wallet pretty quickly, but that’s where budget shopping comes into play! This outfit, which is totally one of my new favorites, was under $60! My absolute favorite part of it were the shoes (big surprise). I don’t know if you all remember, but I had have a slight obsession with these Aldo wedges. I wanted them in every color, but with their current price tag, I would be lucky if I could swing one. That is, until I saw these super similar ones at GoJane.com for a quarter of the price! They come in a wide array of fun summer colors as well, and are very comfortable. Take it from me: I was wearing them for 12+ hours this day and I didn’t want to saw my feet off (always an accomplishment).

Happy Hump Day: Milo Ventimiglia

Back in the day when Heroes was amazing, Milo was on my DVR nonstop. The hubs and I were late on the bandwagon, but instantly fell in love when it was on Netflix instant. We were so hooked, in fact, that we spent some sleepless nights trying to catch up (refer to this similar situation). Believe it or not, I wasn’t too into Milo (the Quints had all my attention), until I met him at Comic Con in 2010. Wowza. He’s nice to look at. Just sayin’.

Have fun doing just that below!

It’s a nice day for a…wet wedding!

I hope you all had a really great long weekend – I definitely did! I was the maid of honor (please don’t call me a matron) in one of my closest friends’ wedding at the beautiful Addison in Boca Raton. I had a great time laughing uncontrollably at ridiculous google searches, watching hilarious youtube videos and singing Disney songs as we got ready for the big day. Although the day turned rainy right before the event was slated to begin, everything worked out fabulously. My friends looked so happy, we were with so many special people and there was so much love in the air. I hope it was everything she ever imagined and more!


Our bouquets were made of paper! Amazing, right?

1. Zig Zag Shift

This dress has been haunting me for weeks. Usually, that means I should buy it. But I went on kind of a shopping binge while the hubs was gone so I am on a current shopping freeze (ugh, I hate those). So I will just admire from afar (hate doing that too) for now. For those of you that don’t have to window shop, check out the beautiful shop, Spool No. 72. They have some gorgeous pieces. This is actually my runner up!

What I Wore: Rock ‘n Roll Lifestyle

Welcome to Miami summers: humid, disgusting and bright. I’m pretty sure the morning these photos were taken, there was hail. Unless, of course, I was having some twisted nightmare. So, naturally, it was a great idea to rock the full on black rockstar look. I’m a Miami native, so I can handle it, but I’m pretty sure the hubs was ready to go on strike!

I channeled my inner Alison Mosshart (I want to be her when I grow up) and played the part of the tortured and cool rockstar. Did I pull it off?

Happy Hump Day: Jeremy Renner

So. I saw The Avengers this past weekend (I know, last person on Earth), and I absolutely loved it (along with the rest of the world). Aside from ridiculously fun action scenes, the movie was a total eye candy dream, was it not? Something I was not expecting though was Jeremy Renner. I know it’s a terrible thing to say, it really is, but his face is not so much. HOWEVER, his body is ridiculous. AM I RIGHT, ladies?? I mean, I was totally feeling it. Especially in his male Katniss outfit (I know, Hawkeye and all that. I like my name for him better). Melificent approves.

Carry on.
