What I want to wear on Saturday.



Items in this set:
Isabel Marant Etoile One Shoulder Silk Dress - Women - Diverse
Signature tailored trouser, 110 GBP
Knotted leather sandals, $795
Loss sterling silver clutch, $1,925
Swarovski crystal rose ring, $495

I know that those prices are completely ridiculous, but look how pretty the items are! I wish I could sew well. I want sewing to be another extension of my body like painting and drawing is. (And to a degree, crocheting is too). But I would totally make that pink silk tunic/dress in a hearbeat. And I would make all of my pants actually fit me.

OK OK, i know that there are things called "Tailors" but...again, lack of money restricts visits to those :) Maybe soon :)

This is what I want to wear on Saturday at our birthday dinner at Kowloon :)

23

I'm turning 23 in 6 days. 23.Twenty Three. And in 11 days, my Joel is turning 31. Wow! That means we've been dating/married for over 5.5 years now! Crazy! Time flies when you're in love I guess. I know that some people are put off by our age difference, but others have just found it to be just as normal as any other marriage or relationship. I guess I never thought much about it earlier on because my parents are 9 years apart and they've only got a couple more to have been married for 30 years. Talk about awesome! I can't wait to be able to say that I've been with my husband Joel for 30 years. Such an honor!

Besides that. I'm turning 23 y'all! I have a fulltime real job. With benefits. And insurance. And taxes. And, waking up at 6am-ness. A whole new world for me.

So I've decided that birthdays are still okay as an adult and with that, I'm going to publish my extremely practical and frivolous birthday wish list. Here goes...

1. T.J. Maxx Gift Cards.
    a. This is so I can have monies to go toward the buying of All-Clad cookware. If one could lust after stainless steal pots and pans, then it would be over All-Clad. oh yeah.
2. These Shoes .

3. A new haircut.
4. My Own Kettle Bell
5. A food processor
6. A kitchenaid mixer
7. An oster blender
8. An artisan dessert made by my husband.
(I haven't started telling you guys about how he is so great at making desserts!)
9. Dinner at Kow-Loon
10. And also these shoes.


Life Changes...So What?

So I got a new banner! This will probably be the only time I announce something like this since it will happen very often. In the past when I would have blogs or profiles on websites, my profile picture and colors/themes would change with my mood. I expect that the banner on this blog will do the same.
----------------------------------------------------------------
In other news:I Deleted my facebook! Joel doesn't think I am going to survive without it longer than a couple of days. Well, if he is right, then I have a 14 day buffer between my account deactivation and the permanent baleetion of my page. My main concern is that my "The Moffin" fanpage will also die with my personal account. If this is the case, then I am going to have to start that one over from scratch. Uhg. Oh well?


Remember this?
