Moving

Two more days!

While you have all been dusting off your dancing shoes (does anyone actually have dancing shoes?) in preparation for the big 2010 celebration/begining of a new decade...I have been taking my life apart and putting it all into boxes. That's right, on December 30th 2009 we will be moving into a new house. If you have ever moved (this is the THIRD time for me FYI) you know that it is a GIANT hassle to say the least. I have never sneezed this much before from all the dust I'm turning up. And while I'm supposed to be relaxing on this my final Winter Break of high school, I am stuck at home packing and cleaning.

Please forgive me for not posting more often, but now I think you can understand part of the reason. :)

So don't abandon me yet, bloggers! I will be back to dish on all the fabulous things I have bought and aquired since we last talked soon enough...so stay tuned!

Merry Christmas to All!

May you all have a safe and happy Christmas! I'll be back soon, I promise! :)

If I had a million dollars...

Or whatever all of this delicious stuff costs...who knew Coach was much more than just handbags? Be sure to check out their jewelery and all sorts of other stuff (makes for good gift-giving too!):

Tartan Ponytail Scarf

I can see Blair wearing these gloves, can you?
To wrap you up and keep you worm with an adorable print

Your new favourite "all American" cashmere cardigan comes in two shades:

Equally cute

Very Prim and Proper

Darling!

I adore this shade of blue!

I can't resist a good beret!

Would look great with a winter white peacoat!

There is so much more, but I think I am getting a bit of a cold (blasted Canadian winters!) and am going to go lie down...hope you enjoyed the eye candy! :)

All That Glitters

It's November! Therefore, we are officially allowed to talk about Christmas without being called crazy people (Although I started a count-down weeks ago, only to have someone remark: "It's not even Halloween!")!

And it's not even my birthday (November 24th!)

But I start singing Christmas carols in October, much to the annoyance of my friends and colleagues. "All I Want For Christmas" by Mariah Carey is on repeat in my iPod. Besides, I already know what I'm getting for my birthday! (These awesome riding boots, a dress-form and clothes)

Anyway! I was surfing the web and came across http://www.ae.com/. I'm usually not too into their clothing except for comfy basics, but their jewelry this season is very pretty! I saw lots of grosgrain ribbon, pearls, hearts, and other feminine details. And at such amazing prices, it is perfect for your winter budget! So go pick up a few pieces that will give your winter outfits girly-flair, but not hurt your wallet:

Crest Pins

Rhinestone Key Necklace (hmm...inspired by the new Tiffany's line?)

Pearl layered chain necklace

Rhinestone bow pendant

Pretty gold and pink chandelier earrings

Faux-pearls laced with black ribbon gives it a cute Chanel-like touch

Pearl and bow bracelet...what's NOT to love?

Another pretty key pendant

Chain and pearl charm necklace (spices up a plain tee!)

Delicate layered chains and black ribbon and chiffon rosettes tie in the back with more black grosgrain!

Another pretty chain necklace

Rhinestone and pearl bow earrings

Bow charm earrings

Pretty!

Cheers to the holiday season's beginning!

Ruh-roh.

No, it's not taking me this long to compile a new post for you...I've just been busy! Senior year will mean a little hiatus from time to time (especially to rant in my other blog) but never fear, I'll be back realll soon (as in, expect a post in a day or two).

I'll try not to be lazy anymore.

Honest.
