Chivahn's Adventure Time Birthday!!!

I'm Breakfast Princess (who is really just an ancillary character, but awesome nonetheless), and Chev is Princess Bubblegum, of course.

HI! I am an idiot XD

Here, you can see my fancy egg boot decorations that my wonderful Gramma made (she made my pancake skirt, too! <3)

Mike and Jenn as Beemo and Flame Princess

Relaxing with Rue in Ryan and Stef's infamous ballpit XD

Yep, best party ever. Ain't no party like a Red Duplex party, 'cause at a Red Duplex party, costumes are MANDATORY.

Can't resist a 30 Rock reference.

And since today is your ACTUAL birthday, happy birthday, Chev! And happy birthday to Miss Joe, as well!

Bre's Week In Links/Instagrams 10-5-12

SO AWESOME. Rachell and I had a teeny shoot in Lynnwood yesterday and this resulted XD

 Love Kate Gabrielle's outfit post featuring Le Bomb Shop!

 These gradient nails are fab!

 Notable shoe collections at Fashion Week: Dior, Fendi and Stella McCartney.

 The ever-adorable Molly is Go Jane's BFF of the week! D'awwww! I love her.

 I usually try to keep this a place full of positive, awesome stuff, but this is too gnarly to not shine a few thousand floodlights on. Apparently, it's not unusual for government-sponsored Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to sell former meth houses to unsuspecting people as fixer-uppers, with tragic results. Sickening.

 These Louboutin dupes are GREAT!

 The lovely Amy's adventures on the east coast last winter! The ninja-themed restaurant part about killed me. Also YAY GALA MAKES AN APPEARANCE.

 Two ready-to-ship dresses just went on sale at Idolatre, just in time for Halloween! Over 50% off!!!

Terry and I went out to Tony V's again :P I can't stay away! The music and bartenders effing rule! Also, my shoes <3

For your entertainment, here is my Jade enjoying a plate full of raw onions. This kid is so crazy!

Jade playing with mom's shoes <3

Tonight I'm off to Seattle for Chivahn's Adventure Time themed birthday shenanigans! I'm sure there will be many photos next week!

Knockoff Ninja #19 - Jeffrey Campbell "Dusky"

Jeffrey Campbell "Dusky" in Fuchsia Suede SOLD OUT! However, sizes 6 and 7.5 are available in Nude at Nasty Gal ($188.00 $131.60) :D

"Freda-02" in Fuchsia available at UrbanOG ($45.20), Shiekh Shoes ($54.99)

WOW. How close are these? The Dusky is definitely a hard one to track down these days, especially in Fuchsia. I about died when these dupes showed up at UrbanOG this week! The ankle cuff is the same, the buckles are the same, and the straps at the vamp are the same. The only real difference I can see is in the shape of the wedge, which is far better-looking in a sculpted wedge, in my opinion. I dunno about you guys, but I think I'm in love, here!

Sound off in the comments!
