Where's Waldo..{Me}

Hi!
It seems like it's been eons since I've last posted {sheesh}, however never fear, I'm here, we'll I'll be back. I'm working on a very special birthday project for the weekend! As soon as I'm done, I promise I'll be back with the quickness. In the meantime, HAVE A SUPER DE DUPER FANTASTIC DAY!

Ooo La La...

I love French things and I like accessories, so what better way to have both than to mush them together.
Rock n' Rose { a UK based jewelry & accessories boutique}, has some wonderful treats that I would love nothing more than to add to my accessory collection!

Stache Bash Anyone...

I would LOVE to have a Stache bash in my office. This def. has to be one of the funniest & creative ideas for the office I’ve seen yet!! It’s so fun and really takes the ho hum and takes a load off of having to be so serious {eek!} during an eight hour plus work day!

All is Well...

For now my computer is working just fine. My fingers, toes, and eyes are crossed hoping that this will continue forever {ha ha}. Oh how I’ve missed you! Let’s get the ball rolling once again!

Computers Get Sick..

and sadly I know this because mine has a bit of a wee cold. Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow and I can happily blog away! I miss you all tremendously....get well computer, get well!

Have a Lovely Weekend...

I hope that you all have a wonderful lovely weekend! It's my birthday weekend {birthday is on June 9th} so I'm hoping to find some great things to get into or maybe just make it a nice quiet weekend!

Whatever I decide to do, my hope is that you too enjoy your weekend.

Give love & spread love the ones you love! Until Monday...

And Away We Go...

I would love to see this movie as soon as soon as I can. You can go here to see when it comes to your city!
It looks like it's going to be a lovely movie & i can't wait:)

Reading is Good...

for the mind, soul, heart and anything else that one cares to lump in. I absolutely ♥ reading. When you read it puts you in this little bubble stuffed full of imagery, sounds, feelings & thoughts..bottom line is it's just great.

I'm currently reading David Sedaris' {author & American humorist}, Me Talk Pretty One Day, and let me tell you, I'm enjoying every little bit of it. It's a collection of short stories of events in Mr. Sedaris' life and from the read of it, his life was/is very entertaining. If anyone is familiar with This American Life, then I think that you would thoroughly enjoy reading this bookly treasure!

Extra Added Bonus: For those who may like audio books, today's your day because it's also available for your listening pleasure!

Hooray for Headbands...

I honestly love headbands! I have a nice little collection of them but don't wear them as often as I like. Well things shall surely change!

Once Wed {a fabulous blog}, has a lovely tutorial on how to make a fancy schmancy headband for bridesmaids but you don't necessarily have to be a bridesmaid to don one. Since I want to try my hand at making lovely headbands for my small up & coming business venture, this would be a great resource!

A rousing round of applause to Once Wed, for such creativity and the willingness to share your talent with the entire blogging community!!

Jaspects..Find My Way to Love...

Yesterday, I happened upon this song Find My Way to Love by the Jaspects on their latest musical venture, 'The Polkadotted Stripe'. It has a very sweet/lovely/jazzy feel and is sung by one of my favorite voices, Chantae Cann.
It seems like the perfect little diddy for a rainy day when you're just thinking or a wonderful score to one of the loveliest romance movies...la la la la

Have a Lovely Weekend

I’m going to take this weekend to really, really, no honestly, really clean and purge my room. It def. looks like it should be dubbed a ‘Disaster Area’..Oh for shame!

But as Hampton the dog as my witness, I WILL dedicate my Saturday & Sunday with the sacred hope & sheer determination of returning my room back to the beautiful boudoir that it once was!

May each of you have a spectacular weekend, whether you’re cleaning the home, enjoying the wonderful warm weather, lounging around, or hanging out with family and/or friends. Make you sure your top priority is to enjoy yourself & soak up some good summer loving!

Necks Need Love Too...

"Simple charms - from golden hearts to cloisonné globes to full-bloom roses - glint from bare necklines".

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I would ♥ to add all three to my dainty necklace collection. Anyone out there want to make me happy? Perhaps as a Happy Birthday Princess or a Just Because gift..... If so you can find them here!

Some Cutesie Swim/Ocean Wear...

Now that I'm all excited over my vacation which is due to happen in approx. 36 days, I really need to get a move on it and select a few swim/ocean wear pieces. I think that I really gravitate to Bandeau styled suits because you can wear them w/or w/out the straps so it's like a two for one deal!

Hmmm I'm also wondering if I can wear a few bracelets to coordinate w/ my suit in the water as well, only if they have a really good clasp of course & won't get washed away into the Atlantic Ocean...pondering the thought...

I'm kinda liking these darling beauts:

Summerly Swap...

It’s so nice to meet new blogger friends & it warms my heart dearly.

Dionne of City of Dionne was so sweet to leave a nice little comment on my page that I wanted to return the favor. When I went to her fantastic blog, I noticed that she’s hosting a Summerly Swap & I've signed up to join.

If you’re interested in participating in the Swap, leave her a comment but hurry because you only have until Midnight tonight!!!

I'm thinking that maybe I should jump in this wonderful bandwagon & host one of these during the upcoming Fall. I've heard about these swaps before and who doesn't like receiving great goodies in the mail!

I've Been Waiting for this Moment...

The bottom line is: I haven’t been on a ‘real’ vacation in approx. five years & it kinda stinks like a diaper genie. Soooooo the gal pals and I are planning to hit the beautiful island of Turks & Caicos very soon..like July soon.

I’m so very excited for a number of reasons: 1. a vacation is needed and everyone should take one, 2. I ♥ being with my friends, 3. I’m ready to tan & look like a little chocolate bunny, & 4. we’re going to have so much fun & throw caution to the wind!!

July can’t come soon enough..yippee vacation here we come!

Yellow Dandy...

I purchased this Rosette Fascinator a few months ago from Art Star Philly, & have yet to display it on my pretty little noggin but I think that now should be a great time to do it. Boy oh boy I can't wait, it will be so great, great, great, great, great, great {in the words of Prof. Klump}

Unfortunately it's sold out at Art Star Philly BUT the SPLENDIFERIOUSLY great news is that you can purchase it here! They have amazing colors to choose from as well so the only hard part is just deciding what color to purchase.

A rousing round of applause to Giant Dwarf!!!

H Street Country Club...

"Think eclectic, urban and industrial – it’s casually sophisticated, irreverent and the only one of its kind", is how H Street Country Club is being described.

H Street Country Club is scheduled to have it's Grand Opening today so if you're in the Washington, DC area and you're looking for a little indoor golfing, pool, shuffleboard & skee-ball fun, this seems like the place to be & the best part is that membership is F-R-E-E. They also offer delectable sounding Mexican fare to suit your palette.

to the one {s} that are contributing to my endless vat of happiness! Happy thoughts, happy feelings, happy memories, happy experiences, & the list is limitless! Hugs & Kisses to you! {Photo courtesy of Anna Bond}
