Sweet Little Nothings

For me, a stylish tote bag is always a must-have item. And as much I love my LV Neverfull, it’s nice to have an bag that I won’t see dangling off the arm of every other woman on the subway.  It’s normally pretty tough to find Lancel bags in the US, so I immediately pounced when I saw this lovely caramel tote deeply discounted at Century 21 (my second home).

Ahhh… if I could spend my days draped in diamonds and pearls, I’d be a happy camper. Until that happens, I’ll stay contented with my new freshwater pearl ring given to me by the gracious folks over at Berricle.com. I love how it’s delicate and refined, but still makes a statement.

My co-worker hipped me to Seche Vite, and it’s hands-down the BEST topcoat ever. I rarely have time to polish my nails these days, but this stuff helps dry my nails to hard, smooth, glossy finish in not time flat! Ok… more like 10-15 minutes, but still!

I’ve been seriously slacking on my thrift store pimpin’, but I ducked into No Relation Vintage recently and emerged victorious. This mink-trimmed beauty only set me back $40, and I can’t wait to wear it to holiday parties. I’m planning to swap out the buttons for something more blingy, but for now I’ve covered it in festive crystal brooches.

My husband teases me, but I cannot get enough of cheesy 80s nighttime soap operas. I spent all summer finishing up Dynasty, and have now moved on to Falcon Crest. Unfortunately, I’ve only been able to find the first three seasons online. I’m dying to know what happens after the plane crash!

After some serious wind gusts over the weekend, these leaves are all pretty much gone. But it was SO BEAUTIFUL while it lasted.
