Of all of the watches I have ever owned in my life, I get asked more about my Michael Kors watches than any other- including a vintage Rolex. I picked them up in Austin last year around this time when I had traveled to the wonderful land of Texas outlet malls (read about it here- or the update with even more new stores here) and have been in love with them ever since.
A couple of weeks ago, I got invited to join Beyond the Rack, a newish private shopping online sale thing. There are hundreds of these “exclusive clubs” who will bombard you daily with e-mails about random sales no one could care less about- but I can’t help it. I join in the hopes that something I actually want comes up one day. I have the e-mails sent to an e-mail address I only check when I have time to wander through and today I saw that there was going to be… Wait for it… A Michael Kors watch sale! Starting August 23rd. So excited!
As you all know, I’m a huge purse fanatic. I’m currently in the market for a small purse that I can wrap around my body and throw over my shoulder, and found myself wandering over to the Chloe section of NeimanMarcus.com and found the new apple of my eye- the gorgeous, timeless and sure-to-be replicated-in-many-variations Chloe Cary.
I like it in red…
…I like it in black…
…and I like it in tan.
and then there is the Chloe Marcie- I like it in metallic goatskin especially…
I’d never need another purse, ever. Swear.
But back to the task at hand, a smaller purse I can throw over my shoulder for hands-free purse use.
So far this is the contender. The Marc by Marc Jacobs Trapped! Jina bag. I’m not fully decided yet though- so I will keep the hunt up. I love how I always come back to MMJ purses. Love them!
If you’ve spoken to me (or driven by me) in the last couple of weeks, you know that I am currently in love with Adam Lambert’s relatively new song, If I Had You. I’ve had quite a few people make comments about this song, including a girl at a coffee shop I was in today while it was playing who asked her mom what coal liner was and if it was safe for eyes, Mr. Roccapuccia trying to replicate the y-y-y-y-y-y-you sound (we’ve discovered the best way is the moving your fingers over your lips quickly) and my favorite gay friend asking if it was Adam Lambert on his CD cover or Liza Minnelli.
I took one of the Shopaholic books along with me on holidays this summer and couldn’t believe how much I laughed considering I had read it four times before. It never ceases to amaze me. I was browsing my favorite web haunts when I got back to civilization and was ecstatic to find that Mini Shopaholic, the newest book from Sophie Kinsella is out on September 21st- Starring my beloved Becky Bloomwood and her daughter, Minnie!
I’ve already pre-ordered it, so expect a review in late September!
I’m a larger chested woman and I’ve found myself in quite a few uncomfortable situations involving my shirt being a little too low for a certain circumstance. However, I’ve never really thought about attaching a handkerchief to my bra straps and then adjusting. Maybe I’m just too old fashioned? Anyways, I almost peed my pants [...]
Well… I am back from my RV vacation. I spent two weeks trolling around Montana, Wyoming, Washington and Idaho in my in-laws RV and am proud to say that I have survived. You know that famous quote that says “Always try something once” or whatever? I realize why they don’t say “Try something once and [...]
It was Customer Appreciation Day yesteray (BOGO!) at McDonalds, so my office decided it would be a great day to all share in the delicious half price burgers. We waited in line for something like 20-30 minutes in order to get to the front and were shocked by the sheer volume of people crowding the poor [...]
Seriously? Didn’t these two hate each other, take each other to court, one of them pose in Playgirl and the other play a teen mom poorly on TV? And now they’ve reconciled and are getting married? WHAT? I did not see this one coming.
