Aww, thanks again to some beautiful blog friends for the blog love. Err and sorry for the late post (I guess you’ve already figured out procrastination is definitely one of my traits!)
The Perpetual Party Planner gifted me with the Glamourous Blog Award.
So a few random tidbits about myself:
1. I won the story telling contest for my school in 4th grade but lost the district competition because I didn’t have enough eye contact. Dang it. Now I make sure to have lots of eye contact when I give presentations or talk to someone (though not in the staredown kinda way).
2. I have slept through a garbage truck accident (outside) and yet wake up when I hear my husband stir. Odd.
3. I am perpetually tired. Sigh if I could sleep an actual 8 hours peacefully…
4. I’ve only spent over $100 on shoes once (for my Coach Monet boots and I had credit to pay for them). But I’m thinking of getting a pair of Loubotins though this year. Am I just a sucker for the red heel? Maybe. Either way, I’m going to check them out when they’re on sale.
5. I love seafood but can’t eat any more because I developed eczema a few years ago and seafood makes me super itchy now. Of course I had oysters and yellowtail sushi yesterday. Sigh I have no willpower sometimes.
6. I cook a lot more in London now and Thai food is a new favorite – curry, noodles – yum!
7. Markets are my favorite part of London. I have a market report or two coming up. The food, the jewelry vendors – it’s all awesome.
And a few glamorous and beautiful things I’m thinking about…
Woven clutch with a Bottega Veneta feel.
Colorful plates
Fun necklaces
well done on the awards x
congrats on the award sweetie
Aw! Thanks for the blog love sweets! I’m heading home TODAY! Can’t wait!
I had eczema as a kid because of citrus foods. There is a lotion that will help called Ala Derm. I used to order it by the case from the manufacturer! It solved a lot of my issues with food and the “itchies.” Lemme know if you’re in need and I’ll pass the info.
Definitely get the Louboutins. The red sole is sexy, but it’s worth every penny to feel comfortable in five-inch heels. Your feet will thank you!
Thanks for the award my dear. I love your pick for BV looking woven clutch. : )
Congrats! Love your list. Where can I get a pair of Coach boots for only $100!?!? and I love that necklace.
Thanks so much lady! And big fat sigh…someday Loubs will be mine. I say go for it!
Eek- sorry to hear about your allergy to seafood. I don’t eat meat– only seafood and veggies. I think I would die if I couldn’t get my sushi fix!!
xx
yes u need to splurge on the loubs at least once! and i have that forever21 necklace and have gotten sooo many compliments on it. a guy i work with (yeah ok he’s 76…seriously) thought it was at least $800!!! can u believe it? go for it!
lol @ procrastination. As long as I’m not neglecting my sewing machine, the rest of the world can wait 😉
You’ll have to let us know if you pick up the CLs! Definitely a good goal for 2010! 😉
And gorgeous plates!
Yum, yum…love Thai food. Looking forward to your London market reports. 🙂 Congrats on the awards!
aw, i love learning more about you!
Thanks for thinking of me 🙂 How does a blog award work? I’m pretty new to this whole thing…
@ Betsy Head – Coach boots can be gotten at the store for about $100 if they’re on sale AND you can use the 25% customer appreciation discount. I also got $800 boots for about $200ish this way!
@ Dawn – wow, I should really get the necklace now!
@ Lindsey – there are rules, like say 5 or 7 things about yourself, pass to 5 or 7 people but I’m such a rebel, I say up to you!
Thank you so much for the fabulous award darling!!! I am sooo honored to be on this list with some of my fav bloggys!!
So looking forward to you coming to NYC – get your city stilettos in gear doll 😉
XOXO
