♥… cast thoughts of bad hair days to the wayside, and allow your luscious locks to fly freely in the cool breeze? Take heed of Kahlil Gibran’s words, dolls; “Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.” ♥…slip into the Shoshanna Daisy Garden Bikini you’ve been harboring in your dresser drawer and run through the sprinklers in your front yard?
♥…be Barbie? Darlings, Barbie is a gorgeous individual who can be anything she desires; therefore, emulate her. Allocate the use of dramatic fake lashes; slick on Lime Crime’s Countess Fluorescent Opaque Lipstick for that perfect pink pout; and wing your liner in a way that would make the Blonde Bombshell herself proud! Don’t forget the black pumps; I believe Louboutins are in order.
♥…find a sunny spot in your bedroom, kick off your Pelle Moda Yaritza Platform Wedge Sandals, and take a catnap in the middle of the afternoon?
♥…put on your Elizabeth and James Juliet Dress, take the hand of a cute boy, and spend the day at the fair? Fluffy pink cotton candy for dinner and multiple rides on the carousel are, of course, a necessity!
Fashionably yours!

Taking a catnap sounds absolutely delightful & going to the faire!! Soon!
I love the picture.
I think it's hard to become Barbie although we can try.
Fabulous ideas, Erika. Louboutins are always in order for me, but I cannot much longer ignore that I need a haircut... flying in the wind or not ;-)
WOW that Juliet Dress...must. own it. I'm now going to make sure everyone knows that my birthday is coming up later on this month!
I really envy Barbie... she has Louboutin and I don't. Hahaha!
I love the wedge... just the perfect color I want right now.
Have a great day Erika! xoxo
I would love to slip into that bikini or E & J dress. Love the image at the top. xo

sunny spots and cat naps are the best.
Great post, Erika!
A day at the fair in that Elizabeth and James dress and eating cotton candy would be perfect!
That Kahlil Gibran quote is absolutely perfect for spring! xo
Louboutins ftw! Love the wedges too. :)
Xx
I may go after that cat nap...but the cotton candy dinner doesn't sound too bad either!
ooh i want to do all of these! especially take a cat nap in a sunny bedroom! it's so nice outside today!! ahhh :)
I DID cast thoughts of bad hair days aside today, because I actually had an appointment this morning for a haircut ;)
hi
how are u erika
nice post
catnap sounds cool
I'm channeling myself to be at the fair, eating cotton candy in the Juliet Dress right now. It's not working. But I'm feeling happier just by imagining it. :)
I LOVE your "Why don't you..." posts! So inspiring!
All of these sound wonderful! I still run through the sprinklers!!
I soooo wanna go to the fair, they closed the state fair in MI, the last one was last summer :(
I want to be a Barbie. Pink pout and Loubie pumps. Thanks for the inspiration, Dollie!
Ahh, I love the Barbie comment! So many think the concept of Barbie is sexit but I like how you draw on the fact that she has had over over a hundred different jobs! Not to mention an enviable wardrobe... sigh.
I wish I could kick off my Pella Mode wedges but alas I don't have any :) haha and be barbie? I would love to be, I actually just got excited at the idea of that. I love that Gibran quote too. Such a soothing post.
I love cat naps. And play dress ups like barbies ;p seriously, long thick eyelashes and glossy lips make me feel pretty!
Wonderfully lovely post =-)
Wow I want to do all of these things
That bikini, that lip gloss and that dress are all now needed in my life.
That sounds all so amazing. Especially the wind in the hair one. Oh, how I crave driving a snazzy convertible along highway 1. Let's go soon!
Nice blog, :D

Goodness, I'm in terrible need of an afternoon catnap, right about now.
I hope your week is going well!
Ahhhh, I love this! Barbie is the greatest individual EVER because she can do anything. Come on, she's gorgeous PLUS she can be President, a flight attendant, and a rock star! Furthermore, I'm absolutely in love with the Juliet dress... I featured it and Emily did such a lovely C&C post on it!

The Juliet Dress is amazingly beautiful... if only I wasn't a college student and had a good paying job... It's definitely an inspiring dress though. I'm definitely going to be on the lookout for a version that's within my budget.
Love everything in this post, darling E, especially the Elizabeth and James dress!

I have a total Barbie issue as it is - too much pink, waaaayyyy too much ! Every time I pack to go on holiday I look like Barbie goes on holiday - all my pink things seem to make it into the case and it's just too much ! Loved your post though...
What a beautiful quote! Can't wait until it's warm enough to wander around in nothing but bare feet.
*Kelsey
they're all such brilliant ideas, except maybe no. 2, as there's still snow on the ground here...
Hey, thanks for stopping by,
Austin was amazing!!! I need to get myself back asap.

I'm definitely listening to Kahlil Gibran's words! It's an amazing quote.
And the Juliet Dress is to DIE for. I love it so much.
love those Yaritza wedges:x
I am obsessed with Lime Crime's colours...ahhh, how I wish I was Barbie :)
What a cute bikini! *^_^*
Kahlil Gibran is so right!!
Oh girl you know my black Louboutin Pumps are never far from my mind...or my feet! But more importantly I am going to put on the white BCBG gown I posted and take the hand of a VERY cute boy and dance the night away in St. Louis next week...can't wait! ;)

Oh how I would adore to do the last thing on the list with a certain boy, he'd be perfect for a day at the fair! And obviously that dress is perfection in all but cost! Love your why don't you lists, always so perfectly creative.
