Why Don't You...?

…slip on Joe’s Jeans’ Unforgettable Wedge Sandals and take the boardwalk by storm with a cute boy in tow? The ground rules for the day are as follows…you’ll supply the ice cream if he wins you an oversized stuffed teddy. “All’s fair in love and war,” right darlings?

…pen love letters to your friends from their favorite fictional characters? After all, there are very few who would refuse un petit note from the dashing Mr. Darcy!

…keep we are owls’ Snow Leopard Scarf in your handbag to toss on whenever you feel the need to take a walk on the wild side?

…bring the taste of the county fair to your very own kitchen? Replace breakfast’s lumpy oatmeal with caramel apples; indulge in funnel cake for lunch; and for dinner there’s truly nothing quite as scrummy as a bag of colorful cotton candy. As Ernestine Ulmer said, “Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.”

…leave your Rachel Leigh Fitz Hyacinth Necklace at home, and instead accessorize with light-up jewelry so that you glow wherever you go?


Fashionably yours!

Ah! Dessert first. I love that theory. Emilie De Ravin's character in the movie "Remember Me" loved to eat dessert first. I shall indulge myself with that this month.

I never read Under the Tuscan Sun, but I was wondering if it was any good. I really didn't like Eat.Pray. Love. and I don't want to be disappointed again. Hope you have a good day, darling.

Hello my love!!! Life has been sooo crazy for me this summer, preparing to move back to Rome. I have missed you dearly and ready for life to settle down so I can visit regularly again! I'm in love with these unforgettable wedge sandals...I WANT them, oh and I already have the dessert thing down. I could eat cake for breakfast every day and be a happy girl! ♥
