{4} orlando blogger meetup so i’m like light years behind on posting this, but a few months ago, michabella and songdesigns and i had a blogger meetup! we chatted it up, traded gifts, and gained a new real life friend in each other! but, i forgot to post the pic… so here it is!
and hopefully we’ll be meeting up again next week when i go back to orlando (it’s been wayyyy too long since i’ve been on a business trip)!
{5} black boots i’ve been on the hunt for the LONGEST time for a pair of black boots. a pair of boots to wear with tights, skinny jeans, and knee high socks. and at the most recent macy’s one day sale, i found my match. it’s black, it’s equestrian like, it’s comfy, it’s got a great button on the side, and it’s perfection. say hello to calantha by anne klein!
{6} headbands i’m trying to grow my bow business and i want to make headbands. i’ve been looking high and low for structured comfy fabric headbands but haven’t found the perfect one yet, won’t you help me out so i can make you a bow headband? 🙂
have a wonderful holiday (for those in the U.S.) week!!
I love these!!
Hadn’t heard about the Michael’s challenge, that is neat though! Too bad I’m crazy busy making Christmas presents otherwise I’d be all over it!
I love your bows. They are so so so cute. Ohmy.
Love your “monday” post. I can’t wait to be one of the first to buy your fabulous headbands. I wish I could help you with wear to buy the starters 🙁

Well its about time that picture got put up!!! 😛 I love it! Makes me miss my long hair actually…. Tear. I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!!! Good luck on the Michael’s challenge! So cool. AND Love that pearl/black hair pin! <333
You are so sweet and your comment on my site was lovely, thank you! I really enjoyed your interview with Diana at One Crafty Fox and simply love your page too!

I will go on the headband hunt because I am SO excited for your bow headbands! Anything with bows in fact
Congrats on finding your black boots! I know what you mean. It took me a couple years to find mine! Haha.
Maybe try headbands that aren’t the stretchy elastic kind, too? Those kind never stay on my apparently-oddly-shaped head, & there are too few cute structured headbands out there!
Oh, wait. Rereading, I think maybe those are the kind you meant?
so fun! i love your bows-they are darling:)
