For the Love of Pink and Swap Reveal

As I was driving to work today, I realized something.  I must love pink.  My bracelet, my shirt, and my purse...all pink.  And I think it's absolutely fabulous!! 
Bracelet: Groopdealz - if you've never heard of them, you MUST go check them out!!
Shirt: NY&Company
Purse: Coach

And now for my swap reveal!!!  This was the "A Perfect Night In" swap hosted by Amber and Lin and it was so much fun!!



I was paired with the amazing Crystal at Thrify and Frugal Living.  Her blog is awesome - without it, I would've never gotten a year subscription to Cosmo...for FREE!  Thanks Crystal!!

Here are the goodies she sent me...it was like my bff went shopping for me!  Seriously, I loved everything!  She said she went off of this post to buy things for me....smart girl!  PLUS...she sent me bonus pictures of a mint watch and purse that she found at Target....her and I both want desperately need the watch! 

Admission by Jean Hanff Korelitz
Gold Earrings - to die for!
Merona Mint Socks - solid and stripe
Glade Candle - Garden Sunshine - smells oh so good and matches my kitchen perfectly!
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Golden-I (love) and Mint Green Sorbet (double love)

And I just loved her note on the inside of the card.  I already wore those fabulous earrings and painted my nails gold!  And those socks are sooo soft!!  I've never worn Merona socks...I am now a fan.

Thank you again, Crystal!!  I'm so glad I met you through this swap!!

Leaving you with this quote...and the mint background that matches all the mint in the swap!

    Ohh I love this post! :) I am so happy that you liked everything. I hope you like the book. I figured a newer book would be my best shot. I adore Tina Fey and thought that it would be a little funnier than it was (yup...saw the movie last Thursday. Funny, but not Tina Fey Funny. Damn. It was a good story though...hopefully the book fills in some of the questions the movie left me with). Anyways. I couldn't find Sex and The City 2 and then the day after I mailed it I found SATC & SATC2 in a combo dvd pack for $5 (Story of my life). Look for it at Walmart!

    It was great to meet you and I am happy we were partnered up together. I am off to bed soon, but I will link up later tonight or tomorrow with my goodies.

    ps>Love the pink striped (chevron?) shirt!

    Great package! Crystal really did a fantastic job. I love that there's a bit of a color theme going on, mostly cause I love green sorbet. Merona socks are the best, love love love them.

    Thanks so much for participating in the swap & linking up!

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

I was on this blog today and she was talking about how women spend so much money on wedding dresses.  It reminded me of my wedding and then I realized I've never blogged about it!!!  It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!!  Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress.  I knew exactly what I wanted.  I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress.  I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress.  (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!)  So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much.  I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH.  It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress.  You can't really tell fr...
