Mah Birthday!

Today (the 29th) is my 26th birthday. Yay me! I love birthdays- I see them as a chance to be completely self-centered and do exactly what you want to do.

Well, that wasn’t exactly what I did. My day consisted of running errands, including bringing Chloe Kitten to the vet. No one left the exam room bloody, so I consider the visit a success. I also had a great dinner with my family, which was exactly what I wanted to do.

I also wanted to dress up and wear something nice, despite the weather being in the negatives and the wind being so cold and brisk that it was tough to breathe. So I compromised and wore something sparkly with jeans, not a skirt, and avoided frostbite.

So you wanna know what I learned in my first quarter-century on earth?

I learned that fortune favors the bold. I learned that everyone is a little lonely. I learned that smart, funny guys are a better catch than tough, muscled guys. I learned that common sense is incredibly rare, but kindness can be found in nearly everyone. I learned that animals can be human’s best friend, and that I will always love horror movies. I learned to love some of the things I hated about myself, and I’m working on the rest. I learned that people leave this earth before their time and it really never stops hurting.  And I learned that blogging is a damn fine way to keep myself entertained and meet some pretty awesome chicks.

Home from the Holidays

There’s no place like home. I packed up myself, chloe kitten, loads of gifts, etc., etc. and headed to my parents place for a Christmas with a packed house. It was great to see my little nephew and the rest of my family. But wow, am I glad to be home!

I was aching to get back to my friends (and wear my new clothes) and Saturday night was the perfect opportunity.

Now, if you know me at all, you’re looking at this and thinking” no way she went out in that. It’s the middle of winter and she’s always freezing.” And yes, I was cold. BUT I wore a pair of wool tights under the leggings and it made a serious difference!

I’m back, baby!

So glad that everything has slowed down a bit here.

I have so many things to blog about. What, you ask? Well, how about:
a write-up of the Boston Fashion Blogger meet-up (so late, I know!)
some awesome new makeup and skincare products to rave about
some new outfit posts
Chloe kitten’s latest fashionable accessories
a review of a ghd flat iron (compared to my old chi)

To kick things off, some gorgeousness from Vogue Spain Jan 2010.
