Harrods here I come...

If I needed a reason to visit Harrods while in London
(which I assure you I don't)
here it is -
The pair of giant red shoes which protrude from the store front
to celebrate their Wicked Witch Of The East display.

Must have item of the week: Over-the-knee boots.

I cant decide if i would love a pair of these or if they would look totally ridiculous on me?

Run This Town.

Fun Cardigan for nights out!

NYE Outfit!

All from J.Crew

I wish I was a little bit smaller...

Marshmallow World.

I LOVE Christmas music and if I could (without being judged)
I would listen to it all year round. So you can imagine my excitement when they
started playing it on the radio earlier this year!

This is one of my favorites, enjoy!

Happy November!

I had to pull my winter coat of of the closet for the first time this morning,

and sadly realized that my gloves were nowhere to be found!
I was a little sad because my hands were freezing walking into work,
but also a little happy to have an excuse to buy a new pair!

Halloween 2009!

Pete and I love to dress up for Halloween and have had some good couple costumes over the years. This year Pete was a box of Franzia, and I was a sorority girl -
