preposterous packaging

have you noticed that perfume bottles are getting really obnoxious looking??







sure they can be pretty, but my yearly christmas tree has less decoration than a 1.7 oz perfume bottle these days..


*all images from sephora.com
**i have not tried any of the perfumes above, so don't ask me how they smell

on having tattoos

last week, danielle from sometimes sweet wrote a very insightful article on hello giggles about what it's like to be a heavily tattooed mother.

although i'm not a mother *yet*, i do have some visible tattoos. i love my tattoos, and i am definitely not done getting them, much to the horror of my parents. i've been lucky thus far in the sense that my tattoos have not inhibited me from any opportunities or successes in my life and i have not encountered any scary strangers or their negative perceptions of my tattoos. however, getting tattoos is like becoming a celebrity, in my opinion. you know how celebrities always complain about the paparazzi and how they have no privacy..? if you get tattoos, especially large or visible ones, you need to be prepared for others to express their opinions about them, whether good or bad.


speaking of tattoos, i have a new piece in mind that i'm hoping to get started @ the end of the month, so stay tuned! <3

why i love awards shows..

fashion fashion fashion!





of course i had to beg randy to flip between the emmy's and some random football game, but i got to catch some pretty good moments from the awards show.

let me just say.. the lonely island and michael bolton? amazing.

i want i want!

well, first i'd need an iphone 4 (i'm still with a 3gs for about another year), but...

i want this:


it's an iphone case that you can cross-stitch on to create your own case!


it comes with a book of suggested patterns, but you could really put anything on it. i think it's so awesome!!

seen on hanasaurusrex.

vegas recap

i got back from vegas on thursday, and wanted to share some fun photos with you guys!

i was there for an industry trade show - here's what our booth looked like:




a little smaller than the new york booths.. haha!

since it was a pet industry show, there were some interesting things to see..





v and i strolled the strip after the show..











v and i each got one of those really big drinks you see all over the strip! i had never had one before, so i was very excited!





some boobies @ the monte carlo..
