Two favorites working together! Amen!

So, I've been gone for quite a while, but I have been busy ever since graduation!

More on that later. I am here to talk about something I think is just AMAZING!! I am excited about it! So excited that it pushed me out of my blogging coma, lol.

Ready for this?





I told you it was AMAZING!!

Look at this image from H&M!

I want BOTH pairs!!
Ahh, Hubby is NOT going to like this as much as I am, lol.
Aaahhhh-mazing!!! My bank account is sooo going to suffer this fall (starting in November).
The collection will include shoes, handbags, and clothing. All to match! :)
Could there be anything more perfect than this?!

Confessions of a Shopaholic!


OK... so this book was great! I read it very quickly because I couldn't put it down. I remember I stopped reading it to help Hubby wax his car (I know, I'm an amazing wife aren't I!? =]) and I told him, "I keep thinking commercials are going to end and the movie is going to start again, but it's a book and it's waiting for me to finish it!" Haha. Can you believe it!? It was that catchy!
Anyway, I absolutely loved this book and am now convinced that I have to read the rest of Sophie Kinsella's books. I am so excited for the movie to come out and am going to plan a little something with a bunch of friends to watch it together. **(Remember, this was one of my 101 in 1001?!?!)** Look at how amazing the outfits are for this movie! How elaborate! I wish I could spend the money to dress like this... I sooooo would sport 'em! (Ugh stupid money!) Well, hope you decide to read it if you haven't done so yet. I aways thought I was somewhat of a shopaholic, but now I realize I really am not, especially not compared to Rebecca Bloomwood, lol.

101 in 1001: #87 - In Progress

This is a goal I set for my mind (I guess I can tell you this one now): #87 - Re-read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.



I had to read this book in High School in one of my honors English classes and I fell in love with it. On a random trip to Barnes and Noble with the hubby yesterday I saw the book and decided to buy it. Good thing I saw it since it was on my list!! I started reading it this afternoon and am already about 60 pages in! It is such a good book and I hope some of you that haven't read it will decide to do so sometime soon.

Also, I am still doing well with the other two goals I had started a couple of days ago! This 101 in 1001 thing is amazing! =]


Good Luck to all of you trying it!

Love ya!

Fun: Isn't it funny...

So Hubby and I have just moved in to out new apartment and it's all that we wanted and so much more! The place is very well kept and the base color scheme is beautiful. After a day of living in this place with bare walls, no dining table, and a bed we decided it was time to make this apartment our home!

As many of you know: Target is an amazing place! You can find just about anything for a reasonable price. So off to Target we went. We spent more money than I thought possible, and mostly on cleaning products!! As we looked at their "furniture" Hubby and I realized we could find better deals elsewhere. Off we were to Burbank just to go to Ikea!! One of my absolute favorite places to go (now that I have been to a couple of them)! Well, we got so carried away... well, I got so carried away that we ended up buying a cart full of things as well as a furniture cart full of things. Now our only problem was fitting everything into my car! Luckily, the 6 is a hatch and everything fit (barely, but hey, who cares. It fit!!) =]

Once we got home, we realized we had to put everything together ourselves, but we had so much fun doing it! After about 2 afternoons working on a dining table, 4 chairs, 2 side tables, a coffee table, a desk, a TV stand, and a 3-drawer cabinet, we can finally look at our apartment as a home! I picked everything just as I wanted it and, I have to say, I did a pretty great job!

Well, I just wanted to point out that I have 2 new favorite things to do: Cook and clean! Believe it or not, I love to clean my place, I think it's because it's MY (well technically 'our' place but who's keeping track?) place and not my parents. Maybe I have this all wrong, but I am glad I love to clean because our home smells good and is appealing to all of the senses! =]

Can't wait for my first visitors! Yay!

P.S. I'm so glad I am the one who watches the bank account and not Hubby! ;)
