They call it DC’s destination for the “designer” cupcake! Their website enamored me. I’m tickled, not necessarily with just the final product of anything, but every aspect of it, customer service, packaging etc. When I saw the slideshow of photos on their cupcake site my mouth began to water. I had never heard of Georgetown Cupcake until I started using Twitter, which proves that the internet is good for something. Georgetown Cupcake opened in February, 2008 and is DC’s first and only Cupcakery. No wonder they say the line is down the block and nearly around the corner. The flavors that normally sell out are the red velvet and lemon blossom. I like their weekly menu schedule too so you’ll know what to expect before you get there. Here are some other flavors to drool over: chocolate ganache, coconut, lava fudge, carrot, chocolate banana, lemon berry, chocolate peanut butter swirl and of course vanilla and they’re so pretty, not to mention it can be a tax write-off if I write about it. DC is closer than Georgia. I’m on my way folks.

Sometimes I’m a little slow when it comes to figuring out release dates and keeping an eye out for hot new designer line launches etc., but my fashion sister *B* Fab aka VaFashionista was definitely on the ball. She created this flawless outfit to go with the fabu Christian Louboutin Dillian Python Pumps I featured last week. She called them:

“magnificent creations of wonder”

She isn’t lying! Don’t they just make you swoon? Get the accessories she paired with them here.
