Off to The Big Apple!
If my flight takes off tomorrow...I will be in NYC from 30th until 5th.
This means little internet access so see you all when I get back!
The song in my head at the moment:
"Paper Airplanes"- M.I.A.
See you when I get back!
Heading to NYC 30th-5th.
I am a bit uncertain of how the trip will go. Hopefully smoothly and without any stress that I cannot handle.
I will do a little shopping while there and with the huge sales everywhere it's the perfect time of year.
So, any suggestions for places to shop in NYC that has funky, classy, not too steep priced (under $100) clothing/accessories?
Hook a gal up!

Christmas Goodies!
"Supermassive Black Hole"- Muse
This song has become one of my ringtones on my cell as well as often listened to by me...and now I decide just how badly I want the Jeffrey Campbell heels in my last post.
OMG! They are on sale!!!!!
Above: lynden combo python heel by Jeffrey CampbellHow can a shoe loving girl like myself NOT love these shoes?
I know I wear size 7 1/2 in Jeffrey Campbell flats but am not sure how his heels run in sizing. So I would not know if I wore size 7 1/2 or 8.
Anyone familar with the sizing on Jeffrey Campbell heels? Help!
Merry Christmas Everyone!
So, let the most famous local-born singer sing to you this holiday!
"White Christmas- Bing Crosby
Yep, the Binger was born in the town I live in at the moment.

Long, Pretty, and Dangly.
This one:
Above: Shimmering Glass Pendant Necklace by Aris Geldis
Has a very 1920s/30s feel to it. I love the multi-colour stripes in the glass fans and how it is tri-leveled. I would so buy it but I am not into paying $304.00 (before tax) for a necklace.
Maybe if I was rich I would splurge and buy it for myself because I can think of so many outfits I could wear it with.
This one:
Above: Pico & Salsa Ball Necklace at shoprobertson.com
Is exactly like a necklace I almost bought when I was in Old Town, San Diego the last time I was in Southern California. I KNEW I should have bought it.
You can wear it long like in the above photo or double it up:
And it also comes in many colours:

Above: Turquoise, Natural, Green, Yellow
As well as Black which they don't seem to have shown in the photos.
I love the Multicolour the best:
It is many shades of brown and really looks great against black clothing. I just love how the necklace is made up of beads and knotted to make the bigger "balls" on the necklace. It's so pretty.
I have actually asked for this necklace for my birthday because $20.00 is not a bad price and I really want it...and should have gotten the one I saw in Old Town.
Now Way...No Way In Hell.
My mum decided that she MUST have this for Christmas yesterday:
Above: The Tale of Despereaux Plush Mouse at F.A.O. Swartz"Aww how cute!", you say.
"It's only $26.25?", you say.
"Oh no it's sold out everywhere!", you say after a bit of searching.
"I will try Ebay!", you say.
Then you see people are selling them for $120 plus on Ebay. $120+ for a 8 inch plush mouse! No f-ing way I am paying that much for a 8 inch stuffed mouse!
Turns out that this plushie is one of the hot, "must have", items of this Christmas and they didn't produce a lot of them so it is rare, rare, rare .
Looks like mum won't be getting what she wants this Christmas because there in no way in hell I am paying a high price for a plushie mouse that was originally $26.25!
