Wanted.

Aside from wanting every.single.thing from Bailey’s new bedding roll out (my bed is gearing up for some Jenny Shams and maybe some Katie Sheets in a new color-way?  The sheets are unbelievable, trust me, I’ve slept in them), I’ve got my eye on a whole lot of greatness this week.  A few of these things I have been thinking about alll week long after seeing them while out and about in Austin last weekend.  I came this close to making the Pucci coffee table book mine, and have definitely moved it to the top of my book list.  I try to purchase new coffee table books every so often in order to build a collection.  It has been so much fun to do.  We also saw these Givenchy Jelly Gladiators in Austin and they are beyond.  Ever since Molly told me about Coach’s handbags in the pale pink, I can’t get the thought of owning one out of my brain.  I think this is definitely my favorite style.  With a fun trip to Houston in a few weeks to go to a music festival, I have been pinning all of my favorite festie looks here.  Potpourri-printed All Stars (sidenote: the shoes can be personalized with initials – I see a sister purchase) are definitely a necessity for the occasion!  Those and a great neon, embroidered tunic like this one.  Molly, who is not one to appreciate anything monogrammed, even fell for this teeny tiny monogram necklace.  Definitely adding it to my birthday list for this summer:)  I honestly don’t do a whole lot of yoga and when I do, my gym provides the mats, but I feel completely compelled to buy this yoga mat just because I have never in my life seen anything quite so cool.  Have a yoga-loving friend with a birthday coming up?  You HAVE to get her this.  Done and done.

Words cannot describe how happy I am that tomorrow is Friday or how excited I am for this weekend.  Lots of fun things planned with the sister including our Makeup Forever event (favorite new obsession! dying to try this) and Bradley’s long-awaited wedding.  Eeeek!!

Some Sales + Steals

APoT_Sales+Steals_130509

Whew! What a day. What a day.  One of those long but good, really really good days.  So I will make this one short and sweet.  Lots of good finds this week and as always too many good sales to count.  They need to stop with these darn sales so that my bank account can have a rest.  That Anthro dress is amazing…I tried it on back in February when we had our event and it is so different and flattering on.  Obviously now that it is on sale, I will probably have to buy it?  Its one of those pieces that I know I will get lots of use in for both work and play.  Since the Great Gatsby movie comes out this weekend (so so excited!!), I had to include Kate Spade’s Gatsby Clutch.  I’m off to Chipotle for dinner – the tummy is growling and I literally have zero food.  Happy happy Thursday (night) chickens!  xx!

It’s here, it’s here! Friday that is:) And so is a whole new grouping of things I can’t seem to take my mind off of. Really wishing that I had come across this Topshop dress in time to order for our Cinco de Mayo celebration this weekend – would have been quite fitting. As would the Tory bag that is too cool for words. Talk about a conversation starter. Although the bag may seem a bit “out there” to some, it really could be worn with just about anything throughout the summer. A couple of weekends ago we were able to meet adorable Emily who works for Tuckernuck (a must visit if you haven’t yet!) and she was sporting a pair of Visconti and Du Reau Manila Sandals that I could not stop staring at. They’re kind of everything, no? So is Kate Spade’s new cork iPad case. I love the fact that its neutral, yet so far from boring. It would make a fun gift, too! Speaking of gifts, who wouldn’t want a Zoology workspace accessory like a flamingo tape dispenser or seahorse scissors. Not kidding, I think I need these – I actually don’t own a tape dispenser so it must be meant to be? When our new bff Amber was in town a few weekends ago she religiously used and raved about Josie Maran’s Bohemian Waves hair mist that manages to turn her “straight as an arrow” hair into the perfect beachy waves. Buying some of this keeps moving further and further down on my to do list, but tomorrow is ze day. A trip to Sephora is in order for that and a product were both excited to try, Makeup Forever’s new Aqua Lip Pencil.

Yay for Friday and the fun weekend we have planned down in Houston en la casa de McCarthy!
