may i introduce:

the newest (and only) member of my PEZ collection, mr darth vader ♥

only 86 days until christmas..

I think one of these will be on the top of my list this year:

[Equestrian Crown Underground Tote from Juicy Couture, $US398, www.juicycouture.com]

[Padlock China Bag (Beige), from Juicy Couture, $US328, www.juicycouture.com]

...what can i say, i ♥ juicy

so freaking awesome..

[forgot the pic source, oops!]

this picture makes me want to start collecting PEZ dispensers. and sticking them to my walls. in perfect rows. for people to be utterly amazed by.

[current tally: 0 PEZ dispensers]

today, i ordered these:

[Enesco salt and pepper shakers]

i feel like these kinda fall into that 'so lame they're almost cool' category. actually, they probably don't. but i love them all the same. they are equal parts tacky and brilliant.


i can see myself handing these down to my grandkids some day.. they will no doubt remember me as that eccentric woman obsessed with shopping and cats.

today, these arrived:

.. and they are even more amazing in real life!

i was somewhat anxious about spending that much money on swimmers.. especially because they were coming from the other side of the world - meaning that i couldn't try them on and returning them would be impossible.. but they were just too cute and i had to have them. turns out i had nothing to worry about.

definitely one of my best online purchases in quite awhile.
