Useless but very pretty things

I have always been drawn to beautiful things. No matter where I go or what I'm doing, shiny objects distract me. They call to me in a dangerous chorus of desire. I can be minding my own business at home and BAM! Anne Hathaway is sauntering down the red carpet on E! wearing a dress I have no business owning, but a voice inside my head says...GO AND GET THE DRESS! I am telling you, these items are useless in my personal Minnesota life. There is no earthly reason why I would need them. So, I am going to post them all here so we can enjoy their beauty together and be satisfied.

The dress that stole my heart....

This is what I would wear to work if I were the Queen of England!! Isn't it Jolly?

Couldn't I wear this on a cruise or something??!

Who doesn't need a sparkly Chanel coat??

This one I think I might be able to work into my current lifestyle...Blue Chip, what do you think??

This one is just fun! I would totally rock this with a belt just out for dinner, right?! The green shoes are a perfect touch.

Happy viewing,

There is something you should know about me...

There are some things that I feel burdened to confess. Just a few things about me that I'd like to bring into the light. I mean we're friends, you and I, right? Friends shouldn't be afraid to speak out and say,

I wear men's cologne. Its true!! I've been too embarrassed to admit it but people keep asking me why I smell so good! I've been stealing my husband's new Bleu de Chanel that I bought him for Christmas. I honestly think it smells better on me than him:) So I wear it. Once in the dark, now out in the open...I wear men's cologne!!!

I also shop at Brighton. I know its for soccer moms and grandmas but I really like their cuffs! I Christmas shop there every year for "other" people and add to my collection secretively that way. The only person I've confessed this to is the blue chip kid and he very kindly braved the middle aged, cat loving sales people in the store to buy me this new amazing cuff for Valentine's day! Thanks honey.xoxo

I wear J brand "bombshell" jeans. The "bombshell" is kind of like a nice way of saying... you're not skinny, but you want to wear skinny jeans, so we'll make you a hybrid. Jbrand put a little extra room and give in the caboose of a skinny legged jean so real people can wear them. They are a dream! Unfortunately mine are developing a hole in the knee due to a fall I took on the ice during this lovely winter we are having. Here they are....

Don't you feel closer now?

I think you should tell me your style secrets!
