It Was Fast and Dirty!

Dear Monday,

I’m willing to forgive what you and your mean muggin friend Tuesday did to me last week (You both had bad hair, btw). I almost had to get the badgers and take you down (throw beer in your face.) But, let’s start fresh, ok? Play nice, Monday!

Dear Leggings/Yoga Pants/Wife Beaters, and suprisingly soft F21 T shirts,

Thank you for being the only items of clothing in my closet that did not make me want to burst in tears and rock back and forth in the fetal postion this weekend. It’s not that my other clothes are mean. They just don’t understand pms and aren’t as…flexible as you are.

Dear Hair,

I want my bangs back and this is the picture I will be taking to our stylist. Bangs, since it will be cooling off you have no reason to get all hot and sweaty and weird. Act right ok? I know OOFA isn’t here to “roll my bangs?” but we are just going to have to be big girls and work as a team.

{Extensions MIGHT be coming out ya’ll, but then I’d just be…”UN”, and that’s so sad}

Dear Fiance of one of my favorite blogger buddies,

I’m so excited about my blog’s re-design! I hope all the mumbo jumbo I sent you this weekend made sense, and I promise not to be too much of a pain in the ass. My baby’s gettin a makeover!

Dear Kelly,

This means I won’t be harassing you to change things for me at 2am anymore. I know you are probably very sad about this. Don’t worry, you are not off le hook. I have endless things to harass you about. Yay!

Dear Sangria in a bottle,

You’re really good. I like where our relationship is going. Combined with the yoga pants and your yummyness, I just might never leave my house again. Keep up the good work.

Dear Fall TV Schedule,

I can’t effing deal with you, dude. There are just too many shows I HAVE to watch, and I can’t prioritize, I am overwhelmed and confused. My little OCD heart can’t take it. On that note, Fall TV, you’re also making me feel like a TV junkie. The Hills this week, right peeps?

Dear Burberry Prorsum Spring 2010,

Holy gawd. You blew my mind. Well played, Christopher Bailey, well played.

Dear Friends,

Yes, that is YOU! Sorry for the randomness. I have nothing too exciting to report from this weekend and I am just fine with it! I hope this week is FABULOUS for us all. Also, if Monday has you feeling a little…hostile…today, head over to Kelly’s blog for a fabulous way to vent! AND my best friend Brooke is guest posting here today, it’s HILARIOUS, so ch-ch-check it! Kthxbai!

Big fat bloggy hugs to you all!

XOXO,

Liz

I spent an amazing 3 months in the Philippines and I am deeply saddened by the news that a typhoon has hit Manila, with the death toll rising. My prayers are with a nation and people who stole my heart. If you’d like to help out, please visit the Philippine Red Cross

(These lil letters were inspired by The Rockstar Diaries, The Wild and Wily Ways of a Brunette Bombshell and I’m sure many others. I didn’t create this idea, and I don’t claim to!)

Friday already…all I have to say is “yay!” Pretty much sums it up, no?

Last night was Fashion’s Night Out in NYC…and I’m not gonna lie, I had to pull myself away from the every-3- second- fabulous Twitter updates to have a pity party. With some Sangria from a bottle I did manage to grab this photo of MK and Ashley handing out lemonade. WERQUE. I read a “tweet” that someone tried to tip MK…because I’m totes sure she needs that extra $2. I die.

All snarkyness and bitter Betty-ness aside, this was a phenomenal evening for the industry that I work in, am obsessed with and love. If you are unfamiliar with what FNO is-

“In a global initiative to promote retail, restore consumer confidence, and celebrate fashion, U.S. and international editions of Vogue are coordinating evening extravaganzas in their respective world fashion capitals.”

BADASS. FTMFW!…thanks Lilu, for coining a “term” I will most def play out in no time.

You know what makes me a non-bitter Betty? YOU. Just sayin…

Ok. Focus. Kristin…I got my mail today and let’s just say, my pumpkin spice latte’s will be on her for awhile. But the card is really what brought the smiles and “awwws“! We’ll be back in a hot minute with a shoe post similar to our LBD post…often imitated never duplicated ha! LOVE HER and treasure her!!

And, as always, The Badger Colony. I don’t know how 3 girls who have yet to meet (soon!) can just hold it down for each other day in and day out, but we do. So to Brooke and Mayra…thank you. Love you. Friday means textapaloooooza!

Ok le mush…I’m getting teary…thank you SO much PMS, really, it’s been like a week. Throw me a bone jeez..But I digress!

{Random car pic of me cuz B likes it and the girl gets what she wants}

{Hmm…bloggy buddies becomin real lifers on the reg. I dig.}

This weekend is full of new bloggy friend FUN!!

I was asked by Sephora to attend an invite only event this Sat, bring friends, (preferably bloggers-we clearly rule) have our makeup done, a yummy lunch-basically be little diva’s for a few hours, and leave with some free goodies…in exchange for a write up on the event…um, didn’t take me long to say yes! I’m bringing with me some FABULOUS L.A girls you may be familiar with…

Jasmine at An Experiment in Poverty-I already met her not too long ago! She’s as fabulous as her blog and I’m super excited to hang out again!

Happy and Sad face all in one sentence…so super excited about meeting her FINALLY!!! We’re going to the nutella crepe place I met Jasmine, Kathleen and Carina at. I don’t care what else they have there. I only have eyes for Nutella.

Longest post ever…Winner winner time! Stay with me dolls…

Big virtual hug to the amazing, gorgeous, sweet, etc, etc Leigh at Jkldesigns and Create for partnering with me on this giveaway. The response was phenomenal! I am still lusting after every single one of her pieces, so if you didn’t win, I say, we should totally buy out her shop anyway! Who’s with me?

I decided to have John, our new roommate, pick a name…here he is…he’s the bomb, he brings me coffee everyday and is always down for an impromptu “PYT” dance party in the living room!

{as these are the two ways to my heart ya’ll}

{Say hi to John! What up John.}
