I Think I Look Pretty Foxy ... You Could Too!

I'm SO in L O V E with this hat, it's becoming ridiculous. I've even started to wear it for nights out on the town - case and point, I was at the Mighty (below). Does that make me a wook? Only @Grill_Meister can answer that...

Oh yea, and this bad boy is handmade, reversable and comes with a cute little button of your choice - now that's RAD!

Thanks Dax for cheering me up and for making me fall in love with Foxy Monster Hats!!!

Jewelry Heaven: Waxing Poetic

Oh. My. Gawd. I'm in jewelry heaven!!!! I've seen a lot of this brand in all the mags lately, and every single time I've drooled over each and every piece. I've always loved things with an old world, heirloom feel to them. Somehow it gets my imagination going and I start to wonder about the story behind them.

For the longest time, I've been thinking about making my own jewelry again. As I really haven't seen much of what I want in my price range, but at the same time I can't stand wearing little to no accessories. Back in the day, jewelry making was a passion of mine, I used to make gold dipped pendants and little fuzzy bear necklaces. I had quite a little jewelry business going on during my middle school days. But to be honest, I just don't have the time anymore. I'm swamped at work, I barely get the chance to blog - heeelllllooooo I definitely don't have time to fit in jewelry making!!!

Enter Waxing Poetic. They're combining so many loves of mine. First of all, I love how they let you customize and layer your own jewelry - "to build a story". And it's awesome how all the items on the site seem to work together, so you can't really mess things up when layering pieces. Plus, most of the items are super affordable, yet look like they're anything but. Did I mention there's even a section for men? I'm totally sold ... my wishlist is going to be loooong!

Just Like Pajamas

C of H Avedon Slick Skinny - Star (Black)

Just like pajama pants.

That's right, that's what the Citizens of Humanity Avedon Slick Skinny jeans feel like.

These super soft and comfortable, stretch denim leggings are my new addiction. They're flattering and uber versatile - I can wear them with anything. So after my boy bought a pair for my birthday 2 weeks ago, I knew I had to buy another. In fact, I would like 20 more pairs. Seriously, you have to try them on, you too will fall in love.

I've often wondered if I would see the day a piano played my favorite electronic tunes. Now I know it can be done. I'm gonna keep an eye on this guy.

He is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

here is the electronic version

What I would give to be a kid right now

Tara — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 19:06:00 +0000

WOW! I would love to be a kid right now. They have the best toys ever these days! If I could, I would ask Santa for Kota the Triceratops. Seriously. He makes all sorts of noises and moves his head and horns. Click here to see little Kota in action. Too bad I'm too big to play on it. *tears* Is it wrong to buy it for my cats?

Well, I guess I could settle for the smaller robotic dinosaur - Pleo. Although Pleo is not as soft as Kota (and I certainly can't ride him), he explores and reacts to environment, interacts, and even expresses emotion. See Pleo playing with people here. He's like a pet! Now that's a fun toy we all can live with!
