    Great idea for a post. Those Anthropologie tights are a hot pick. I've received coal before, and let's just say it's not so funny on the receiving side.

    PS. Your comment made my day—thank you for that :)

    These are all great items. I love those tights. Thanks for commenting on my blog. It would surprise me to see a politician do any sort of cigarette ads these days. Since smoking is considered such a no no, nobody would want to be associated with cigarettes.

    Oh the Shu eyelash curler...how classy is it in that gold?!!
    So, I'm pretty sure our little 5 year old fashionista is a pure product of her mom because she's some editor at French Vogue. Go figure. My mom was a teacher...we all can't be so lucky.

    I 100% agree with you. Who knows how much money we would have had to spend for therapy and rehab clinic visits?

    Oh gosh, don't hate me because I'm so cynical!! {just realistic!}
