In other online shopping news this week, I purchased some fine literature. I saw it on the cheapy cheap here so I couldn’t resist. Don’t judge me. Has anyone read it? Wanna do a book club? :)
Without sounding obnoxious (too late!), I just want to thank you for all the love I received this week from the blogosphere. All the links, the interviews and guest posts have me blushing, honored and hoping you all don’t get sick of me! With that said, I have a lil somethin somethin for all of YOU…tryin to pay it forward as best I can, dolls!

Yay! I hope you guys get some good stuff!
Happy Weekend! I have a hot date…with a good girl friend! Nothing compares to our girls, right? Not even super hot, sweet, butterfly inducing drummers! OH and this time I have a functioning camera! LookBook! What are you guys up to? XOXO, Liz

That dress..Oh My! Talk about perfect summer night outfit.

LC wrote and book? I have to admit I didn't watch the MTV show(you know the one where they are in high school) and I have never seen The Hills, but my friends talk about it all the time. I feel so out of the loop! Is it a good show? I hope you enjoy it! That and the santa/mail carrier comes soon…=)

Kisses!

Wish me luck, I going to try to buy three tikets to The Killers concert in September @ the Hollywood Bowl…that is what I will be doing Friday and depending on how that goes the rest of my day will either be good or a real downer.

Have a fantastic time on your chick date!
=)

4 Brunch at Saks July 10, 2009 at 12:04 am

I loved all of your guest posts this week! And don't feel bad about buying LC's book- I was at Barnes over at The Grove and they had left over signed copies of it, so guess who picked up a copy?!?! I've yet to read it, so if you get to it first, let me know how it is! Have fun with your girlies- nothing better! :) xoxo

5 Victoria July 10, 2009 at 12:18 am

I think I might have to buy her book, although I doubt it's out in the UK yet! x

8 ♥Aubrey July 10, 2009 at 3:41 am

What a bag! I think if we ever met…i'd definately be rading your closet.
Bum for me…the dress from the link i want is SOLD OUT. It's a sign that i shouldn't spend money. Did i tell you my fortune from a cookie? "Watch your financial spending." Don't you just love how a little cookie message can make you think ♥

9 Brown Girl July 10, 2009 at 3:50 am

I love that bag and the color is awesome! Have a wonderful weekend!

10 josie(bean) July 10, 2009 at 4:49 am

11 Jill Pilgrim July 10, 2009 at 5:05 am

You are my hero! I'm totally going online shopping today!

13 Amanda K July 10, 2009 at 5:19 am

Love the Rebecca Minkoff bag!
I haven't read the book, is it good?

14 janettaylor July 10, 2009 at 5:52 am

Lovely dress!

XoXo

15 bananas. July 10, 2009 at 6:08 am

rebecca minkoff is my favorite! i have her neon rendezvous clutch and i get compliments everywhere i go with it. but your purple one is gorgeous! love it.

16 The Haute-Shopper July 10, 2009 at 6:22 am

Love Antik Batik! What a great dress… thanks for sharing the code. And I think every now and again, everyone needs a bit of easy breezy chick-lit… especially if they're being hounded by insecure drummer boys ;-) I tell you… I don't know what it is, but guys like these just constantly need approval (probably why they are on stage to begin with). I guess they rely too much on others to make them happy? In any case, I wish you a fabulous date with your friend and a terrific weekend! :) Ooh, and congrats on the great bag! I think having colorful bags to give a pop of color always works!

17 drollgirl July 10, 2009 at 6:23 am

that bag is so sassy and cute! and love the dress too.

HAPPY FRIDAY! countdown to some fun. :)

18 Cupcake Couture July 10, 2009 at 6:34 am

Yes! I read LA Candy… I read it within 2 days. I couldn't put the book down(unless forced by the boyfriend)! lol… But it was such a good book, but it does leave you hanging…

<3

19 freeteyme July 10, 2009 at 6:48 am

happy Friday girlie! I'm curious about LC's book too. It's in my summer read list. You'll have to get me feedback before i get it. Enjoy your date with your gal pal – paint the town red!

20 Patty Ann July 10, 2009 at 7:06 am

1. I'm dying to read LC's book, please review on your blog! For a small fee of course…
2. 25% off – SOLID. Patty Ann happy.
3. Um, you rock my socks – I'll always save vodka for you
4. I'm missing a follower! Hmm, I'll consider this a major technical malfunction…

Have a great girl date! Have a martini for me.

21 Shopn'Chomp July 10, 2009 at 7:07 am

Hiya! Thx for your comment and for stopping by :) Hope you were able to pick up some Korres goodies.

L.A Candy's on my to-read book list too. *blushes*

22 Pop Champagne July 10, 2009 at 7:32 am

Lauren Conrad's book is finally out?! Gosh I'm so out of the book loop!! heh I love Chick Downtown… But.. Must.. Save… Money!! sigh.. Have a great weeeknd :D

23 Dooder City July 10, 2009 at 7:37 am

Hey! I hope you have an amazing weekend. I've been so busy this week between working and class. Also, I have been kind of in a rut because I am trying to quit one of my jobs but I need to find another one. There is just some crap that is going on and dumb stuff there and I want to get out and plus I've been there for like three years too long. I actually read excepts of Lauren's book because I was curious and it is not too bad! I would love to start a book club if I didin't have so much shit to do.

24 E.K. July 10, 2009 at 7:42 am

Sounds like you have a nice weekend planned. I've been lazy lately because of work, but I hope I can be kind of productive (fingers crossed).

25 Sher July 10, 2009 at 7:42 am

I'll do a book club!!!!

Some fab finds you've listed :)

26 RCaitlin July 10, 2009 at 7:44 am

Sometimes girl dates are the best! You'll have to let us know how the book is!

27 Love&Marriage July 10, 2009 at 7:48 am

You have to tell me if the book is good! I'm a huge fan of Lauren Conrad and have been thinking about buying it!

28 Gabbi July 10, 2009 at 8:04 am

Gorgeous dress!♥

Wishing you much fun this weekend… :)

29 Kristin July 10, 2009 at 8:31 am

Ooooooooooo, that Antik Batik number is yummy! You know you deserve all the love. Have a fab weekend!

30 Drink aVinYo with this blog... July 10, 2009 at 8:35 am

The dress and bag are EXQUIS. We must meet and generally display our fabulousness together.

31 Allison July 10, 2009 at 8:37 am

That's so cool that you have your own coupon code. You're extra special! I'm going to go look at their stores. Have a good time with your girl tonight. I'm doing the same.

32 E July 10, 2009 at 8:43 am

33 Hanako66 July 10, 2009 at 8:45 am

35 K @ Blog Goggles July 10, 2009 at 8:46 am

You deserve it all!

Have a good one :)

36 lisa July 10, 2009 at 10:01 am

I am a tad curious about LC's book, but not curious enough to shell out good money for it lol.

37 OceanDreams July 10, 2009 at 10:14 am

Hot bag! I think my co-worker would love it – purple is her favorite color!

Don't feel bad reading LC – I have been curious about that book too! You will have let me know how it goes, k?

Thanks for the discount love! I am going to check out that site.

I hope you have fun with your girlfriend; those are the best times. I am actually driving to see my best friend – can't wait to see her tomorrow!

Remember to let me know if you need any online advice, k? But…it seems like you might have found a keeper.

Have a fantastic weekend doll! XOXO!

38 The Socialite July 10, 2009 at 11:16 am

I'm kind of shocked about all the great reviews I've been hearing for LA Candy – I thought it would get creamed (It kind of did by critics, but ehh – I usually don't follow them!). I think I may just pick it & read it next! :) ))

Love the color of your new bag btw! Have an amazing weekend! ;)

39 Shopaholic July 10, 2009 at 11:58 am

Nice things indeedy! I can't get the book yet here in UK… :-( , I'll have to wait.
Happy girls night out, they are the best!! x

I'm with you there. Girl dates really are the best. I feel like they recharge my joie de vivre like nothing else…except maybe shopping.

I had to cancel my Ideeli membership during my long stage of unemployment, but now it's starting to sound like a good idea again…I love that bag!

60 inkOBSESSIONdesigns July 10, 2009 at 9:52 pm

You'll have to do a review of LC's book on your blog…I have to say I'm a wee bit intrigued!

65 Meg Fee July 11, 2009 at 5:09 am

one of my fave things about growing up … getting to the age where i get to refer to my friends as my girlfriends. i think it sounds impossibly chic and important–and yes, nothing beats a hot date with a friend!!
