FunSized Homemade Pizza

Making homemade Pizza can be so FFC as well as much healthier and cheaper than ordering it! It's fun to get creative with the toppings. With some whole-wheat dough, I made a pizza topped with spinach, sun dried tomatoes, some red onion, mozzarella shredded pizza cheese and finally sprinkled with some oregano! It was absolutely delicious! Here's the before and after picture: What type of homemade pizzas have you made?  XO, FunSized Sur La Table Aluminum Pizza Peel with Wood Handle (Google Affiliate Ad)

FunSized Business Cards

OMG I am obsessed with this website,  MOO.com! They actually make FunSized (mini) Business Cards! MOO.com makes regular sized business cards too but their mini ones are just so perfect for me! I am so happy I found them and I want to share them with you! They were so easy to make and they have so many options on how you would like to create your cards. Take a look at what I made: I got 100 of them, a good amount to start off with. I can't wait to start using them in 2013! I have a special treat for YOU, my FunSized Fans... You can get 15% off your first purchase from MOO.com by using this code at checkout: 2RB2CK! Happy Shopping! XO, FunSized

American Apparel Gloves

I recently purchased these fabulous fingerless gloves from American Apparel . This is my first pair of fingerless gloves and I love them. They're perfect for those moments when you need to check your phone when you're outside in the cold! They came in a bunch of different colors but I chose the black speckled with some color! Mine were only $12 which is pretty reasonable in my opinion! However, they have some on sale now for $5 , so hurry up and get them before these winter storms hit! P.S. It's also a perfect way to show off your manicure! ;)  Stay warm my friends! XO, FunSized

World Yacht Video

This summer I worked on a promo video for World Yacht at Pier 81 in New York City. It was a gorgeous summer day and the yacht ride was a perfect way to end it. The yacht rode along lower Manhattan; giving a gorgeous view of New York as well as New Jersey. Here's the video: As well as some production stills from the scenes I was in: Thanks for watching!

Guest List Party @ The Jane Hotel

Last night was so FFC! Thanks to Guest of a Guest , I attended their 2012 NYC Innovators Guest List Party at The Jane Hotel . This was my first time going to The Jane Hotel which is located in the Meatpacking District, and I loved it. I have heard about the Jane before, but it definitely went above and beyond my expectations. The event took place within the ballroom which gave such a luxurious antique feel. There was a giant fireplace in the middle of the back wall, which had a rather large stuffed animal on it's mantel. All of the couches and chairs did not match in their color scheme but they were all made of vibrant colors and soft velvet fabrics. It gave off the perfect vibe for this party. The guests were sipping on Svedka and Heineken all night long as they grooved to the music. To see photos from the event that were taken by the lovely, Wendy Ploger , look at this link here: http://guestofaguest.com/new-york/galleries/2012/december/2012-nyc-innovators-guest-list-party-spon

666 Park Avenue

Here's a screenshot of me in last night (December 2, 2012)'s episode of 666 Park Avenue on ABC! It was during the last three minutes of the episode. The camera really zoomed in on me as it was entering the bar. Take a look at the scene here:  http://abc.go.com/watch/666-park-avenue/SH55199790/VD55252612/hypnos This was so fun, flirty, and carefree! I had a such a fun time on set and the crew was so nice on 666! It's a shame it's coming to an end! XO, FunSized

Art Gallery Openings

Before the devastation of Sandy hit the New York City area, I spent my Thursday night roaming around Chelsea going from art gallery opening to art gallery opening. Thursday nights in Manhattan are dedicated to art gallery openings, although it is possible to find a few others on a Friday or Saturday. The first stop I made was at Stux  for the opening reception for Sokari Douglas Camp, Dressed to the Nines . These sculptures were all made out of tin and were very interesting. Each sculpture was made with different materials for "accessories," if you will. This is a photo of my favorite one... Afterwards, I stumbled next door to the Hanson Stern and Noho Galleries. The Hanson Stern gallery goers seemed to be more interested in the wine that was being served than the actual art that was being displayed. However, I did snap one photo which I thought was the most interesting piece there. It was fun trying to figure out who's facial feature was who's. I liked t

Halloweekend Paws

HALLOWEEKEND! I thought this polish would be perfect for the start of the Halloween celebrations! I used the same glitter that I used last week from Sephora, Come to Paparazzi ! I did two coats and voila, you have the perfect set of glitter paws! They almost look leopard-like due to the orange, gold, and black glitter. I love love love this! It's so fun, flirty, and carefree! XO, FunSized

MacBar

One of my favorite places to go eat when I'm in the mood for a special treat is MacBar . It is located in Soho on Prince Street between Lafayette and Mulberry. Whenever you're in the mood for great mac and cheese this is the place to go! It is mac and cheese on a whole other level. They make so many different and fun kinds. This week I tried the Cheeseburger Mac for the first time! It can come in three different sizes. I got the small... since I'm FunSized, it was just the perfect amount of food for me (probably a bit too much but that's ok!). Just look at it! Doesn't it look delicious? Well, it was! It was driving me mad on the subway home, smelling its goodness coming from the bag. My favorite part is the top where the cheddar cheese is baked on top. The magarita mac is usually my go-to choice but I'm glad I switched it up with teh Cheeseburger mac. I am dying to try the mac lobsta'! One day I'll get it! Follow Mac Bar on Twitter . Have you

Into Spain at Pera Soho

On Wednesday, October 24, 2012, I attended the "Into Spain" Event at Pera Soho . This was my first time going to Pera Soho and I was stunned by its ambiance and exclusiveness. Pera is located at the corner of Broome and Thompson Streets.  As I was walking there, heading west on Broome Street, it was a bit of a puzzle to find the entrance. When I almost approached the corner, you get a bit of a tease of what you are about to see since there is a small peephole into the restaurant until you are blocked by what is a large cement wall that wraps around the corner. Finally the opening appeared on Thompson Street! I was astonished by what I saw next...That cement wall was blocking what is a gorgeous and secluded outdoor seating area with large red umbrellas, wooden furniture as well as private seating areas. I wish I would have known about this restaurant during the summer! Then I continued inside for the event. When you first walk in the bar is right in front of you, whic

A Great Meal in DC

If you're looking to have a fabulous meal with an even better view while frolicking around Washington D.C., head down to Washington Harbor and check out Sequoia ! Sequoia is the perfect spot to sit down, relax, enjoy a great meal after spending the day walking around Georgetown. It is only a few blocks away from the main drag of Georgetown, located on K Street. When you go there make sure to get a seat as close to the window as you can so you get a view of the Potomac River. The decor in the restaurant makes you feel as if you are floating at the bottom of the ocean. Just look at this lighting! How fun, flirty and carefree! Now before I tell you about what I ate, let me forwarn you by saying this is definitely a meal you need to plan to splurge on. If you are looking to have one pricey meal on your trip, Sequoia is the place to go to. I went there for lunch but it will be just as good if you go for dinner. I had their Maryland Jumbo Lump Crab Cake and it was delicious! It w

Autumn Nails

This is what my paws look like this week! The main color is "I'm with Brad" from Sephora by OPI Nail Polish  and my pinky nail or the accent nail is  Come to Pappa-razzi!  another Sephora by OPI Color. This is one of their new Jewelry Top Coats and this line is a MUST-HAVE for the holiday season. These glitter polishes are so fun, flirty, and carefree! Now when it comes to accent nails, most ladies paint their ring finger but I like to do my pinky. It is different and unique to me! So which nail are you going to choose to be your accent? If you need some inspiration I like using these two blogs: www.ginadoesnails.tumblr.com and http://nailsforsharks.tumblr.com/ .  Show me what your paws look like this week! XO, FunSized

Frolicking in the DMV

Last week I went down to the DMV, which stands for D.C., Maryland, and Virginia for a Fall-Frolic Getaway! I only went for four days but that was plenty of time to be fun, flirty and carefree while frolicking on the streets of our Nation's Capital.  To get there, I took the  Bolt Bus  from Newark Penn Station, NJ to Union Station, Washington D.C. Taking the bus is much more affordable than taking the train from NJ to DC. The Bolt Bus company has routes up and down the Northeast as well as the Pacific Northwest. If you are able to book your bus trip in advance sometimes you can get a $1 bus ride which always makes your frolicking even better!  On my first full day in D.C., I went to Georgetown to walk around on M Street and do some window shopping. M Street made me feel as if I was walking through an old village with all the brick and low buildings. They had all the shops you would ever need, too! Everything from Sephora, to American Apparel to even a Sprinkles Cupcakes
