Happy Birthday to Me and Happy Easter/Passover to You!

My birthday was this weekend! And it was awesome.

I got some wonderful presents, including:

- 2 Juicy bathing suits (one's a halter-bikini with a skirted bottom in this fabulous yellow print with navy accents, and one's pictured above, except mine is a cream color they call "Angel)

- an adorable Velvet navy tank-romper (okay, I made that term up, but it's a romper with spaghetti straps like a tank top, and I mean Velvet the brand, not the fabric)

- a cute Juicy charm for my overly-adorned, 1000 lb. Juicy charm bracelet

- chocolates!

- some fabulous, sparkly bangles

- a gift card to Anthropologie (thank you, Kira!)

and more...

I just want to take a moment to appreciate how wonderful Juicy Couture bathing suits really are. There is nothing in this world more delicious than a Juicy swimsuit. At least, in my opinion. They are flirty and cute, with little skirts attached (a look I've liked ever since I was 3!), and in fun prints and colors. And I love love love the shirred swimdresses - so flattering to all body types, and kind of retro-chic. These babies are wonderful and stylish without being too revealing, and totally comfortable, too!

(Really, I should be getting a check in the mail from Pam and Gela any day now. All I do is advertise for them... but j'adore Juicy, I can't help it. Hehe.)

Got What I Wanted!

You may have noticed that my WL is shorter... but that's because I
a) got a Tiffany's pen for Christmas and
b) figured out what my signature scent (SS) is. My mother is giving it to me as a Christmas present, sort of, because I would rather have it than the perfume she got me. Not that I don't love what she got me!! But, seeing as this is my future SS, I need to have it!

Thank you, Mother!

I'll try to think of more things I want... just so I have goals and all that.

Want to find out what my SS is? I bet you do. Stay tuned to find out!

I'm Back!

I do not even know if anyone bothers to read my blog, but it doesn't matter. I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT POSTING IN LIKE A MONTH.
I'm just so effing lazy. And I've been busy, with school and stuff. Which, by the way, I haven't been doing extremely well in recently.

So I want to do a quick post and say I'm sorry and I love you guys even though it doesn't seem like it. I won't abandon you like that again.

To make up for it, I'm telling you what you all want to know: everything that's happened since Dec. 24.

Christmas Presents: Lots of stuff - I heart Santa x10!
I'll try to keep it quick:
Tiffany's pen, Tiffany's earrings, Juicy Couture notebooks and binders, 3 pairs of Juicy knee-high socks, a Juicy giftcard, lots of chocolate, a cashmere shirt, BCBG dress, beautiful Elie Tahari coat, perfume, gold Juicy clutch, and more!

Jealous much? Hahaha, just kidding.

My New Obsessions:
Tiffany & Co. and Peter Pan

My Outfit Plan:
Now: Casually Cute (jeans, cute tees, flats, Uggs)
Later (aka early Spring): preppy! with a dash of equestrian (skirts, knee-high socks+mary janes, button-downs and polos, riding boots, ties as belts)
Much Later (aka Mid-Late Spring): ...think, "Forest Nymph!" (dresses, greens, long flowy hair, sandals)

And, as a special apology bonus, I will share something personal with my readers...

My New Year's Resolutions:
1. Watch Less Television (30 min per day)
2. Excersize More/Eat Less Junk
3. Study Hard and without Distractions
4. S.A.B.


I guess to keep NYR #3, I should get back to work.

Wanna know what S.A.B. means?? Comment, and maybe I'll tell you!

Provolone, Mozzarella, Giving, Shout-Outs... Mmm, Cheesy

I forget how long it's been since I last posted, and believe it or not I am actually too lazy to check. (Hitting Backspace and Page Dn? Oh yeah, it's exhausting.)

So who's excited for the holidays??? ME. And everyone else, I should hope. I am totally hyped for December 25 (making an effort to be politically correct?), and you know why?
PRESENTS.
But not for me. I mean, sure, I'll be getting presents, and I have a hot tip from my mother that they're gonna be pretty good this year (like all the other years. Just kidding...sort of), but what I'm referring to is giving.
Cheesy? Absolutely.
True? Yes.
In recent years I have discovered how fantastic it is to give people (my family members) really great gifts. Of course, this is only if they appreciate them. Which they SO will. Trust me.


Ok, so I don't have much else to write about. However, since I'm being cheesy today, I'll give a shout-out to my friend, "Tom." Why? Because I love him/her.
Ooh, look how secretive I'm being.
And I'm sure Tom is wondering why I'm using the name "Tom."

Or maybe he/she gets it, I don't know.
But I'll explain, just in case: "Mosh for Tom!" "No, mosh WITH Tom!"

For the non-Tom population, uh, have a good holiday.

Pre-Sale at Saks

So, for the first time ever, last Thursday began a pre-sale at Saks 5th Ave. They have never done this before, but due to our economic recession, they are doing anything to get the merchandise off their shelves.

And that merchandise has been flying off the shelves into my house!

If you recall, on Friday, I went to Saks with my mom to do some shopping. Well, today we finally got to take them home, and I got:

a little black BCBG dress

a Juicy tee-shirt
a Juicy purse

AND what my wonderful mother picked out for me when I wasn't looking:

a white Elie Tahari button-down

a Lacoste polo

a cute green tee-shirt

I am happy times 10! But there's more!

As it turns out, they did have the right size of the tee-shirt I wanted to get for my aunt. It's coming in the mail... sometime later. And now I have one, too. How cute is that?

Speaking of holiday shopping, I still have to get presents for my mom, dad, grandma, and uncle. I know what I'm going to get my dad and my grandma, and I have some gift ideas for my mom. But I have no clue what to get my uncle.

Well, I have time to think about that. For now, I'll enjoy Thanksgiving and the many shopportunities that lie ahead.
