..::The One::..

I do believe I've found it....THE ONE! After years of searching I have found my idea of the PERFECT dress. Sweetheart neckline, lace bodice, sage green skirt. I'm obsessed.

NEED. WANT. MUST HAVE! Oh Anthropology, why do you do this to me the day I have to pay rent?! So unfair.

Love you too much birthday girl!

..::Pretty Sunday::..

Sometimes, every once in a while its nice to stay home for an entire day. Aside from a trip to the market this morning to pick up choc chips to make some peanut butter choc chip cookies for my love, I don't plan on leave the house again until I leave for work tomorrow morning. Such a glorious day to myself - it helps that its a tinsy gloomy out today too. Hoping your Sunday is just as fabulous no matter what you choose to do (or not do).

..::Zig-Zag Swag::..

I've spent the entire day trying to get my new apartment in tip top shape. Aside from having a miniscule budget at the moment, things are looking up. I need this chair in my life - ASAP! It will be the perfect addition to my living room once my new couch arrives. If only my birthday was a little sooner than Novemeber...le sigh.

Lots of LOVE from LA!

..::Champagne Tastes::..

"Champagne tastes on a beer budget."

One of my all time favorite sayings and so true to my life. I have a passion for the finer things in life however, I've done quite a good job in creating the stylish life I lust after, on my designer's salary. When I was a little girl I dreamed that my wedding ring would come from Tiffany's (obviously I had no clue what kind of price tag was attached to the name "Tiffany's"). After my first visit to the famous fine jewelry retailer, I realized something that the 10 year old me never would have known. These days I care much less about where my ring comes from, but far more about who it comes from. That's the important part after all. But hey a girl can dream right?

..::Take Note::..

"I like to think of life as a limousine. Though we are all riding together we must remember our places. There is a front seat and a back seat and a window in between." - Sabrina

This pretty much sums up the past two weeks of my "work life." Learn your places bitches.

Thanks.

..::Forgetting Kate::..

After a long day of work there are some things that are just that funny that make you forget it all. This picture would definitely fall under that category. Hope this makes your day like it made mine!

..::Because I fell in LOVE::..

Its true... I've fallen in love and this time I'm not talking about a pair of shoes, a party dress, a fancy handbag or a piece of shiny metal. Nope, I mean real LOVE. And because I believe in brutal honesty, I'm here to tell you that's where I've disappeared to the last few weeks. I know I haven't had the best attendance record, but can you blame me? Now to be fair, he's not the only reason I've been in and out of the blogoshpere....work has been insane and I've been out of town almost every weekend for the last month, thus leaving my free time for cooking in my new kitchen and vegging out in front of a movie after a long day. I'm looking forward to the end of July when the craziness hopefully comes to a halt. Until then I plan to enjoy as much of my free time as possible and hopefully getting some work done on my new apartment!
