What is your favorite movie of all time?

Gosh this is such a hard question to answer!! If I had to choose one movie to take with me to a deserted island, that is if I had the capability of viewing a movie on a deserted island, it would be Enchanted April. To me, viewing that movie is like a drug, it's just so calming and reassuring. I love everything about it, the scenery, the actors, the costumes, and the storyline. Ironically, I don't even own a copy of it. For the longest time it wasn't available on DVD, but recently it's been released on DVD. I'm waiting to get a used copy at a good price but I might not be able to wait much longer!

Thanks so much for your question!!

Shades of Apricot, Blush and Coral

Pieces I love that fall into blush/coral color family. Click on the pics for more info. Nothing green I know, but I've always been an against the grain kinda girl ;)

Recent Library Additions

One of the things that my husband and I have in common is that we are both media hoarders. We can spend hours in movie and book stores and come out with piles of both and when we get home, we store most of them away. I think it's somewhat of a comfort knowing that they are there when we want to watch them or read them and that it doesn't have to be done right away. These are some of the recent books I've bought. These weren't all purchased at once, this is just like an accumulative haul post of the past few months. Click on the books to go to the Amazon page.

Liberty of London for Target Goodies!!

Mr. B. and I went out for breakfast this morning and and afterward he asked me if there was anywhere else I wanted to go. So we went to Marshalls, Old Navy and Ross but didn't see anything. Old Navy looks like a box of neon crayons vomited all over the store. 80's revival please go away!!!

So we went home, I plopped down in front of the computer, got onto Facebook and saw a little banner on the side about the Liberty of London for Target collection. I then screamed, "We have to go to Target, I forgot all about the Liberty collection!!" So as I'm running towards the door putting my clothes on at the same time, Mr. B asks, "We gotta go where for what and why?!" I said, "You'll understand when we get there, just drive!"

So glad I got there when I did, the women were going nuts in there!! It looked like the Saturday before Easter when everyone is dashing to get something new to wear to church and they always put it off till the last minute.

I was going to get the wellies, which are UBER cute, but I already have a pair of wellies that I hardly ever wear and I figured it would be pointless to have another pair so I was a good girl and left them there.

So I got this top, this was the only clothing item besides the maxi-dresses, which I know are about to be on their way out, that looked good on me.

Great little plant pot to kick off my spring gardening.


Love this pillow! The pillows are filled with feathers and the backs are done in coordinating velvet! This looks yellow but it's actually a lovely chartreuse!

So that's my little mini Liberty haul. I'm trying SO hard not to buy anything from the Liberty MAC collection but I rarely wear makeup as it's not too good for my face so it would be almost pointless for me to buy anything.

What did you get from the Liberty collection?

Fantasy Glamorous Bag Challenge

The lovely J. at My Closet My Life tagged me with the Fantasy Glamorous Bag Challenge and I thought it was such a fun and unique tag that I would actually do a tag for once! Ha!

So here is my dream handbag: The Yves Saint Laurent Obi in Stone. The perfect shape and color for me. It would go with anything in my wardrobe, I love neutral accessories!

Now for its contents, besides the basics like my keys and wallet, I would have:

Oliver Peoples sunglasses in the style Alina. I still yearn for these. They are the perfect pair of modern shades with an ever so slight retro cat eye shape. I prefer brown tinted shades over grey for some reason. Grey tint gives me a headache.
My phone, that I actually have, the Motorola Cliq in Winter White. It's my new best friend.
The next perfume that I would like to add to my ever growing collection, Chloe Intense. Notes include rose, pink pepper, sandalwood and tonka bean.
The perfect MLBB (my lips but better) shade, Black Honey from Clinique. I own both of these and they are the perfect compliment to each other. I wear the Almost Lipstick (below) first and layer the Superbalm Gloss (above) on top for a lovely shine. This is truly the best shade for my lips, holy grail stuff right here folks!

To keep my breath fresh, my handbag is not complete without my favorite flavor of gum, Orbit's Sweet Mint and my favorite mints, Violet Pastilles from Flavigny.
So there you have my ultimate handbag and its ultimate contents. I tag anyone and everyone who reads this and would like to do this as well. Let me know if you do, I'd love to read your post!

Neutrals I'm Loving

I succumbed to the temptation of this pretty thing at Haberdash Vintage, it was such a good deal, I couldn't pass it up! Be sure to check out some of the other things on her website and subscribe to her Twitter as well, she has a great little shop!! Check out her blog as well if you haven't already, I just learned about it yesterday and added it to my blog roll immediately!!

Here are some of the things that have been catching my eye. All of them fall into the warm neutral palette and would be great for a variety of seasons!!

Have you guys heard about the website faabric.com? I saw a mention of it in the April issue of Lucky and I must admit that I like using it as an item collecting website much better than Polyvore or the universal wish list button from Amazon. It has a much cleaner look and better functionality I think. It does have some issues grabbing images from a few websites like macys.com and llbean.com but overall I really enjoy it.

Have any of you thought of any other questions you want to ask me via Formspring? I thought it was most appropriate that my first question to answer was about shoes. My husband and I got a big kick out of that haha!! Go on and ask me something crazy!!

Accessories I'm Loving

How many pairs of shoes do you own?

My shoe collection is VERY unorganized right now but I just did a rough count and it's approximately 150 pairs. Shoes are my weakness.

New Purchases for Spring!!

Sorry for the lack of posting/commenting once again, I think February was just not a good month for me. I recently got back from spending almost a week in Indiana because of a sudden family death and I think that was probably the perfect hectic culmination to a very hectic month.

Anyway, I'm VERY happy to be back and I plan on visiting all of your lovely blogs from today forward and diving head forward back into the blogosphere!! YAY!

Also, I made a few purchases over the past few days. Along with the Delman lovelies I picked up from 6pm, I also pretty much stocked up on sandals for the upcoming season. All of you in the South know you can NEVER have too many sandals!!

Also, found this really great pin from a local seller here in Texas that was selling it cheaper than one of the same design that was on Etsy. Yay for supporting local businesses AND getting a great deal!

I hope all of you had a lovely weekend and Happy Monday!!
