props

i've purchased more than i care to admit on etsy and have pretty much loved every single thing. but here are 3 i am particularly fond of right now.

1. the best hat EVER!!!! i get a ton of compliments on it. one night at the grocery store i overheard a drunk girl say, "i gotta get me a hat like that." um, good luck because it's one of a kind!
but there is a downside to wearing it. everyone thinks i made it. it gets worse. you can actually see the disappointment on their face when i tell them i didn't. it's very annoying. so, maybe some day i'll applique as awesome as unordinary, who made it.


2. if i could have a crush on a smell, it would be that of fresh peaches. so i got some perfume samples from oui marie and immediately had to buy the bigger bottles. everything i tried was great, but the peach...oh, the peach... every time i put it on i take a giant whiff of myself and grin. really, i do- i'm a big dork. and i'm always asked where i got it- at which time i whip out my bottle and make that person put some on. first they giggle at the name (in a good way) then they take a giant whiff of themselves and grin.
sadly, her shop is closed right now. hopefully only temporarily. i was just about to buy a ton of stuff from her for my mom, my 3 sisters, my fathers wife, a few friends...


3. i own a lot (A LOT) of jewelry, but this necklace from (the oft imitated but unbeatable) t8designs is a staple. the only way it could better suit me is if it were spelled the other way. but isn't that a bit wry in itself?


now that i've gotten all testimonial on you, some fun facts: i photoshopped the heck outta my face on that last picture- i was pretty blotchy that day. and the dress i was wearing didn't even fit me by about 4 sizes. it was skin tight and unzipped in the back. i like giving unnecessary details.
