I want...

If you don't remember, I am somewhat obsessed with swimwear. Today, I am wanting to be on a beach somewhere so I don't have to think about the BIG decision I need to make by the end of business today. I would wear this sassy suit by Trina Turk with these kick-a$$ hot pink shoes and forget about the fact that I have to be a big girl and think about what I want to do with my life... Le sigh.

These sets of heels & suits are the runners-up.

Who wants to escape for some sun & cocktails with me?! xoxo, gg

I want...

... these L.A.M.B. shoes. Gwen Stefani rocks.


Daizy, $294.95

Darrel, $334.95

A friend of mine sent this to me today, and it was just what I needed at just the right time.  Hope it makes you blessed ladies out there who read my blog as happy as it made me!

Someone will always be prettier, skinnier, smarter or their houses will be bigger. Some may even drive a better car, their children do better in school or their husbands fix more things around the house...

Let it go; love youself and your circumstances. Think about it!  The prettiest woman in the world can have hatred in her heart.  The most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children.  The richest woman you know might have the car, the house, the clothes and might also be lonely.

As the word says, 'If I have not loved, I am nothing.' So, again, love youself.  Love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say, 'I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'  'Winners make things happen.  Losers let things happen.'

Be 'Blessed' Ladies and pass this on to encourage another woman. You might consider yourself just another person, but to the one person you just sent this to, it could mean so much.'

I send it to all of you ladies! gg

It's almost Christmas, and I have been an awful good girl - maybe sometimes naughty - but mostly nice.

Santa Baby,
Just slip a sable under the tree
For me
Been an awful good girl
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a '54 convertible too
Light blue
I'll wait up for you, dear
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'll check off my Christmas list

Santa Baby, I want a yacht and really thats not
Alot
Been an angel all year
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, one little thing I really need
The deed
To a platinum mine
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex
And cheques
Sign your 'x' on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tif-fa-ny
I really do believe in you
Lets see if you believe in me

Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little thing
A ring
I don't mean on the phone
Santa Baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry...tonight

I want...

... this dress, minus the short, outrageous crazy man somewhat attached to it.

I want...

... to look this good when I am preggers.

















... and maybe I will since I won't be consuming large amounts of calories in alcohol...

I want...

... to let you know that Tom Cruise annoys me. Why?

1. He seemed to treat Nicole Kidman like crap.
2. He looks like a guy I dated in college. Bad memories.
3. He then married sweet little Katie Holmes who is young enough to be his daughter.
4. He quickly impregnated her.
5. He named the baby Suri.
6. Vanilla Sky.
7. He looks as if he is finding his next younger generation chick in this picture.
8. The girls are right to be excited. They could be his next one & only in 10 years.

I want...

... to never see a man in a skirt again.

Last weekend, I traveled to a Midwest town to partake in the delicious wine (it was Oktoberfest!) with friends and family. I was astounded when I saw this guy & girl walk by (sorry, it's fuzzy, but i was a wee bit intoxicated...).

The man is wearing a Carhartt skirt. Although he might appear to be a woman from the rear, it was really a man (and even if it was a woman, I would not want ANYBODY to wear that skirt).

What is Carhartt? Well, it's a working man's clothing. Click here to see a selection of it. AND check out the latest on Single + Cats = Sad for some fashion tips for men. Lord knows that most of them need it! Props to those who don't.

hugs,

p.s. the skirt has PLEATS, i am still in shock of it all...

I want...

...you to check out the new links I have added to my sidebar. I try to visit these fabulous blogs daily because they are just absolutely FANTASTIC! Look at some of their oh-so-cute headers below. Thanks, ladies, for your awesomeness every day!

Life of a Valley Girl
THE DIARY OF A FABULOUS BUT NEUROTIC 20-SOMETHING FROM SILICON VALLEY

I want these boots!

I love Gossip Girl (Wednesdays, CW, 8 central), but I am usually watching it on the internet because I am obsessed with Private Practice, and they are both on TV at the same time. I do not have TiVo or DVR.

But Gossip Girl has the most amazing fashion. I saw the gray boots below on the main character Serena, and I fell in love with them. Have you seen anything more wonderful?!

Here is a link to the boots by Chinese Laundry, but I did not find any in the gray. They are not even that expensive ($99) so I am bit bummed they don't have the gray! Hold up. I checked Amazon.com, and they do have the gray for only $89, BUT they don't have the right size for my splendidly huge feet.

Happy shopping, girlys!

I want this hair!

I have mentioned my love of the The Sartorialist blog, which you can find here. It's the best on-the-street fashion blog out there, and his photos seriously ROCK. One of the latest (and most commented on) is this one. Her hair is so amazing. I am definitely contemplating bringing this to my stylist to try to do the color and cut sometime soon.
