laughter is the best medicine

Because everyone can use a little more laughter in their life,  and laughter from 

Ansel Elgort(in a tuxedo might I add) can light up even the dullest of days!

BLOGMAS DAY 8

The "HOLLAday" season is upon us and I couldn't be more excited! I love giving gifts just as much as I love receiving them! This year instead of asking for many things that I probably don't need, I've decided to ask for fewer things that I love! If you can't tell already I'm a huge fan of the Louis Vuitton Keepall, when one is traveling they must look extra chic and this will help me do just that! The next thing that I can't seem to live without is a nice pair of leather driving gloves. I live in a very cold place, and in the middle of the winter, there's nothing better than slipping on a pair of leather gloves, preferably with a cashmere lining. The last thing that I have my eye on is an Hermés Clic Clac bangle. They are gorgeous and so much fun! What have you been eyeing this holiday season?

BLOGMAS DAY 1

Does anyone know what "blogmas" actually entails other than posting something every day leading up until Christmas that is. Jen aka my other half and the FAB girl behind Confessions of a Prepster is also doing "blogmas" with me, and we have both vowed to write about the other in every single post. I am aware that we are unhealthily obsessed with each other, it's ok. I apologize for today's post being super short, I'm working on some good ones for you! Stay tuned for some gift guides! See you tomorrow!

WATCH OUT WORLD

I think that all girls should strive to be this woman. The woman who does not care what everyone thinks of her, because she knows just how FABULOUS she is. She doesn't need one or fifty men to tell her that she is one of a kind. She is liberated and sassy and free, but still plays by the rules when she has to. She should be feared, because nothing can stop her from getting what she wants. 

She can drive a stick shift, she can shoot a gun, she can kick your butt if need be. She swoons at the sight of large diamonds, loves shoes(especially Louboutins), and keeps her house always tidy. She is just who she wants to be. Classy and Sassy and Chic. 

The only way to be as great as this woman sounds is to have an extraordinary amount of confidence. You have to love yourself in order to be this sassy, because when you love yourself others will love you. Sure there will be people who say the hate you for various reasons, but they are only jealous of your confidence. 

So darling, go take on the world with you head held high, because you are just as FAB as your leopard print d'Orsay heels. As Audrey Hepburn said "Happy girls are the prettiest"

Own yourself and your sass, it may come in handy one day not too far away.

Shoes Shoes Shoes

are these not the most gorgeous things you have ever seen? 

Nothing makes my heart sing like a good pair of shoes. They don't have to be anything fancy, just a simple pair of black pointed toe pumps is good for this gal, especially if they are black suede. I have always had a soft spot for a statement shoe though, I remember going into Nordstrom when I was about 10 and trying on heels, mind you none of them fit and I had no idea how to walk in them. It was just fun, I loved the way I felt in them, and still do. Most of my heels are statement ones, I have a lack of simple heels. Shocking, right? Because I have this hole of sorts, I am desperately trying to find a pair of heels. 

My heart and feet long for Louboutins or Manolo's, unfortunately I can't drop $1000 on a pair just yet. The So Kate is just do die for! Because my wallet cries at the thought of spending that much on shoes, I have been looking for a practically priced pair, but I just cannot find any I like! If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them!

I'm Not Dead Pt. 2

donut you ever leave me 

I recall posting something called "I'm Not Dead" back in August and now here we are in November and I have only posted once since then. That's just sad. For some reason I cannot seem to find the will power to upload anything that I write. Nothing felt good enough to share, it just wasn't right. 

Now for the 3rd time, I'm saying that I'm back and trust me chickadees this time it's the truth. By the time you read this, I'll have had 3 other posts scheduled. I blame the "go go juice" aka Evolution Fresh's Defense Up, but that's a matter of opinion.

 Now getting back to the whole I don't know what to post thing.  I started this blog as a place where I could for lack of better words, vent. Now that I have made relationships with some of you, I feel that I have to make my content better in some sort of way.  With this being said, I am going to keep blogging, but I'm going to try and get back to what it's really all about.
