{See what happened there? Little different from Monday, ya’ll}

Hello Friday,

Thank God.
Hello Extra Strength Aleve Cold and Sinus,
I love you. When I buy you, I feel like such a criminal and like I’m thisclose from being arrested. My life is clearly not that exciting…

Hello Balmain Spring 2010,
I was hoping the new collection would weaken my obsession with you. Nope. I personally, love where Christophe Decarnin has gone and I know some might not share my views, but hi, my blog. :)
{Rawrr. Mama likey the Balmain.}
Hello Movies and TV,
I am sooo going to abuse you all weekend. No sangria. Just me and you baby…and textapalooza with my badgers. Textie-a-bestie!
Hello Eyes le Liz,
You’ll be getting a break from contacts from time to time now! In discussing our plan to take over the world, Mandi of Mandizzle showed me THESE frames…and I die. Finding glasses I love has been such a challenge! Must. HAVE. We’re gonna be twins, lady.
{Ray-Ban Love}
Speaking of….
Hello Mandi,
CONGRATULATIONS MY LOVE!! One year ago Mandi opened Mandizzle, and she is blowing UP! Dreams do come true! She is a complete inspiration, fabulous friend and I freaking love her. BIG things in store lady! And yes, she’s so pretty I want to hate her but I just can’t! :) Go to her blog and congratulate her! :)

You are the winner of my Perricone MD Giveaway!! Um, just want to note that Tay’s blog addy is hellotaylor…so I was trying to tie this all together and be totes witty and cool…and yeah. Cold med-head. Anyways! YAY! Congrats doll! May you never look a day over 19! Let us coordinate…
Happy Weekend loooovers!! I’m sick and my head is foggy. But you have yourselves a good time…and bring me lots of stories on Monday! K? K.

XOXO,
Liz
So glad you guys love Mandizzle!! If you haven’t entered the giveaway yet, do it do it! To all my new friends and commenters, I’m making my way to your place!

And girl, I am so blind without my glasses/contacts it's not even funny!!! My eye doctor is always shocked that my prescription belongs to me and not some eighty tear old lady! Lol. But those funky babies, le Ray bans, they make it all worth it!

21 Sher October 2, 2009 at 5:20 am

Whew hew It's Friday! Planning the weekend ;)

22 Aritza, Goddess of .. October 2, 2009 at 5:25 am

Haha, I love how you tied monday and friday together ! And plus, friday feels SO MUCH BETTER than monday, for reals. Long and painful week, well, aren't they all?
Anywho, love the Balmain myself and I always think of you when I hear the "B" word (Balmain Badass) !
Hmmmm a weekend of movies, sounds so GOOD ! Why no sangria, though ??? Are you feeling okay ?! LOL
We're living opposite lives now, I wanna trade frames for contacts .. except my frames were never THIS cool. Wouldn't trade these babies, no Sir !
Have a splendid weekend, XOXO !!
P.S. You gotta show me the booties you were talking about !!

23 Kristen October 2, 2009 at 5:29 am

well, it is friday & i hope to see you soon!! please email me with details. i love the textapalooza info. those glasses kick ass. can't even think of 2010 even though it is so close. and i adore the glasses. most of all – i hope you get better soon. it's so funny the druggies use that advil for their mix of drugs and you have to sign and show your lisence (here anyway) when you buy it. lol. love you and how you bout it bout it.

24 freeteyme October 2, 2009 at 5:31 am

Yay for Friday! I woke up smiling today ;-) . But I feel awful for you for being sick. I hope you feel better soon Liz!

25 Erika October 2, 2009 at 5:39 am

Congratulations Taylor! :)

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you're sick, darling. I have been fighting the flu myself for the last week, but luckily it has begun to dissipate. You, being at the beginning stages, must feel miserable. Sending you loads of warm Starbucks drinks topped with whipped cream and drizzled with chocolate to make you feel better!

And please…no more showing me Balmain. I'm already obsessed, but you've just made me more so. Don't be evil! :)

26 KLaw October 2, 2009 at 5:45 am

I'm officially in LOVE with those glasses! Ferosh my darling!

Hope you feel better soon. Colds are whack :)

27 Ela October 2, 2009 at 5:48 am

LOL, how do you feel about being triplets? I've been contemplating Ray-ban frames or new Chanels or just doing contacts full time. I always go for the torqouise shell look…contemplating these as well – haven't tried either yet though…
http://www.framesdirect.com/framesfp/Ray-Ban_RX-tdnisi/r.html

Hope your cold/sinus congestion gets better, babe.

Oh and RYC, hello…not crazy at all. I will never forget what you did (still do) for me, if that's not "real" I don't know what is. Heart you something bad :)
xx

28 terriberri506 October 2, 2009 at 5:52 am

Have you ever checked out zennioptical.com? They have a ton of styles for cheeeaps. They're like $8-$30 for a complete pair. I bought 4 pairs, hated 2 (but who cares, at that price) and loved the other 2.

29 learnxtoxfly October 2, 2009 at 6:12 am

Hope you feel better soon!

30 drollgirl October 2, 2009 at 6:27 am

31 Brown Girl October 2, 2009 at 6:27 am

42 Ela October 2, 2009 at 8:50 am

Hi love, me again forgot to answer your question….
The windows thing…S set it up for me. Basically you can set it to hook up to blogger or whatever blog you're using and just post from there…it'll still appear on your blogger posts, not sure what other fancy things it does, but I was stoked about the bigger pics…now not sure if that was wise, LOL. Or just creepy for readers…

43 Heather October 2, 2009 at 8:52 am

I have RayBan sunglasses and they are permanently attached to me, or at least in my purse. I got some fake me out non prescription clear ones and I love them but all my friends think I'm crazy. They are just fashion-challenged. :)

44 Love&Marriage October 2, 2009 at 9:00 am

Hope you feel better girl? Did you ever e-mail me? If so I never got it! I know your probably super busy so no pressure!

45 Couture Carrie October 2, 2009 at 9:26 am

Fab post, darling!
I love it when you write to inanimate objects and coin terms like flashdance-esque!

Balmain = LOVE!

48 Hanako66 October 2, 2009 at 12:19 pm

I am so glad that it is Friday….SO glad! You need to rest it up and get better because it is October and YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!!

49 Allison October 2, 2009 at 12:19 pm

You are too cute for words. Uhm, hello, I just love Balmain. I don't know if anything can cease my love of Decarnin and how fabulous everything is. That first dress, I die.
Seriously, thank God for Friday. And yay, yay for a weekend filled with movies and TV…sometimes, that's all a girl needs, ya know?
I've missed you so much and I'm so sorry for neglecting your fabulous blog lately. You're still my fave <3 xoxo
Omg, and those Ray Bans?! I die. You're fabulous and I just adore you. I hope you feel better SOON!

Go away gloggy head so Miss Liz can get back to all her great posts!

56 Pen Pen October 2, 2009 at 2:14 pm

Those specs are top shelf! I HATE my glasses right now-THey're rimless, and I miss my old pair. BUT- My prescription got stronger, so I can't even go around with the old pair!
I need new ones!!!
I was thinking about movies earlier today-I always want to watch 'The Shining' around Halloween, but it's checked out if u don't get there like years ahead of time–I'm thinking maybe I should go buy it…hmmm…

U should watch some Willy WOnka(old version) and sing along while eating tootsie roll pops! THat's like-my favorite thing! OR- I make hot air popcorn, put salt, a little bit of butter, AND sprinkle some powdered sugar on there-It's CRAZY GOOD! THo-It may be safer to just inject sugar right into ur veins. :)

57 lauren October 2, 2009 at 2:48 pm

i effing LOVE those ray ban glasses. OH MY! also, i have a really bad cold too so too bad you live so far away we could sink into the couch and watch a million movies! <3

58 Sam October 2, 2009 at 3:08 pm

Sorry to hear you're unwell! No good at all. It seems like the entire blogging community has one at the moment….love that Balmain – love the waists!! Sexy stuff!

59 Gabbi October 2, 2009 at 3:41 pm

Congratulations to Taylor and to the very talented Mandi… also, love the glasses! Good frames are so hard to find.

69 Tori October 3, 2009 at 8:38 am

70 Jill Pilgrim October 3, 2009 at 10:22 am

Oh! LOVE those frames!!

And, I have yet to get off the couch. I have been watching Lifetime movies all.day. Couldn't be happier.

71 Dream Sequins October 3, 2009 at 4:38 pm

Balmain is breaking me down in the most unbelievable way. Grrr. Damn you!

72 Carissa October 3, 2009 at 4:40 pm

sorry to hear you are not feeling well! I did not feel good at all last weekend and last week and am just feeling better as of yesterday so I totally feel you. being sick sucks! just drink lots of fluids and relax… do I sound like a mom? :)

and sorry I have been a bad blog friend and haven't stopped by in awhile! tisk tisk on me, I have missed so many posts! eek. but I browsed through and those pics of you and brooke are so fun and adorable! you guys are just too freakin' gorgeous!

anyhoo, hope you have a good weekend and feel better soon!

73 Carissa October 3, 2009 at 4:44 pm

oh, I forgot to say, I do like those Balmain dresses, interesting cuts, and I love finding new glasses that look great! it really is tough. even though I wear my contacts most of the time, I have purple glasses and I am pretty sure they are ray-ban. but I love that they are not a normal color. I think they dress up my face, haha.

ok, I'm done commenting now :)

74 Fashion Court October 3, 2009 at 8:57 pm

Heck yes to the tortoiseshell Wayfarers!! They were my last pair, I'm on navy blue wayfarers now :) Oooh and the Balmain collection was insanely amazing. Hope you're having a beautiful weekend dear :)

78 clarewbrown October 4, 2009 at 12:16 pm

Oh yes yes! these frames are awesome! The tortoiseshell ones are spectacular. I hope you feel better soon!

79 Kellie October 4, 2009 at 12:17 pm

Balmain = so super sexy! Love it!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend and are over your cold! You'll look super hot in those Ray Bans!

80 Michelle October 4, 2009 at 5:38 pm

I really love weekends with just a couch, movies and my glasses. Sometimes contacts just need to stay in their case for a few days!

81 AndreaLeigh October 4, 2009 at 7:06 pm

i hope you feel better soon, liz! hope your weekend of vegging and watching television healed you right up. sounds like fun to me.
