Since my birthday is Thursday, I am making a wish list. A “things I would buy if money fell into my lap or I found a sugar daddy list”. We all know I have expensive taste – wonderful taste, but expensive. You can tell from my first list, which can be found here.

Duh. Apple iPhone.

Since I can’t have one of those yet, I will have to buy one of these to dress up my year old (I’m out of date, people! Out of touch with phone technology!), scraped up Blackberry Pearl. In pink, because I’m obvious like that.

I’m desperately needing a black nice bag. I’m kind of loving the Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Hillier Hobo.

My newest favorite movie. Enchanted.

A pretty dress. This dress also comes in shades of blue, which is gorgeous but I couldn’t find a picture of. I’d be happy with either though. MbyMJ Meredith dress.

And finally, my number one (which is also on my previous wish list). I seen this bag in Neiman’s right before I went to La Vegas and was practically drooling and had to be dragged away.

Miu Miu Large Bow Tote

It’s only $1200.

*dies*

It will be mine though. One day. I don’t care if I have to eat crackers for months.

What is on your wish list?

It’s all about Cupcake Crawls. Seriously. That is what a bunch of us Chicago bloggy people will be doing April 12th. Well, a bunch, if you all decide to come. If not, more cupcakes for Jenn and I!

Five places of yummy cupcakey goodness with some fabulous company. What more can you ask for?

You in?

Anyway, check out Jenn’s blog for more details!

I’ve been a sucky blogger. I haven’t commented, read or written. I’m still on the verge of something exciting! No one knows but Jenn! (shh!) I’m very excited and hopefully, I can share the news later today! If not today, for sure tomorrow!

In other news,  I seen Charlie Barlett. Anton Yelchin, played Charlie, was great, in my opinion. His character was all over the place and he didn’t miss a beat. He was fantastic. Definitely something I’d recommend.

I wish the world for you today. Happy birthday, baby.

I love you.

I had a bad day at work yesterday and was exhausted, so I didn’t go to the boy’s to watch Project Runway. Since I don’t have Bravo at home, I don’t have a recap today. I promise it will be up tomorrow or later tonight, because the second I can, I am rushing to his house to watch it on DVR!

Also, regarding my last post: If Rihanna and Prince Valiant had a baby that watched way too much Dora the Explorer, it would be Saleisha. That is basically what I concluded from all the comments!

On to the good stuff now. I’m totally copying Michelle with this next thing.

This is my bag. Not the best picture but still. Lovely, isn’t he? Yes, he is a boy and his name is Marc, because he is my first Marc Jacobs bag.

Here are Marc’s guts:

from left to right:
- my life (my planner)
- mirror
- keys
- 2 pens
- Little Fatboye (my iPod)
- my little pink notebook to write thoughts, notes and lists

Next row:
- a ton of change that fell out of my wallet yesterday
- ticket stubs from American Gangster, Enchanted, We Own the Night, the Chicago Film Festival where the boy and I saw Lars and the Real Girl
- gum
- bandaids (sometimes cute shoes hurt!)
- cream of chicken Cup a Soup (only 60 calories!)

also from left to right, everything in my makeup pouch -

- Stussy wallet, which I will use until I get my matching Turnlock wallet (not in my makeup bag, of course)
- CO Bigelow Mentha Lipshine
-CO Bigelow Lip Buffer
-Bare Minerals (which I hate and only use for concealer)
- Carmex
- eye drops
- Philosophy Supernatural Airbrush Canvas foundation
next row:
- Bluefly 10% off coupon that expires tomorrow!
- fold up brush
- Rosebud salve
- Bare Minerals mini kabuki brush
- Motrin

- Full and Soft Mascara

Not pictured: my camera (which I was using to take pictures), my Blackberry Pearl (charging) and all my girly products no one probably wants to see!

What’s in your bag, ladies?

Seriously, I’ve been lazy. A SURVEY (not meme) and a picture that I drew with crayons? LAZY. I’m so happy NaBloPoMoFo is almost over. 2 more days! My writing felt almost forced sometimes, I think that once this is over, ideas and words will come easier.

<cheese> I am glad that I decided to do it though, I’ve found so many good sites to read and “met” so many great people. </cheese> Sorry, had to get that in there!

Tomorrow I have a day off! Yay! I’m going to do exciting things, such as change the oil on my car! and pay bills! and run erands! Oh, the fun that will be had. It doesn’t even matter that I have a 10 hour workday today because ANTM and Project Runway are on and I get to see my boy.

Speaking of amazing things to watch, Sunday I went to go see Enchanted.

Can I just say how great it was? It was so funny and cute and I just loved it. Part of this may be because I’m 23 years old and still want to be a princess when I grow up! Amy Adams was fantastic. Adorable and if you could bring a Disney princess to life, she would be it and, well, she was! Seriously, I really don’t think they could have cast this movie any better. Prince Edward was played by James Marsden and even though I will always think of him as Cyclops forever, he was a great prince! They played their characters perfectly. McDreamy was in there too. I’m not one of those women who swoon at the thought of him, but I liked him in this. It was hilarious and definitely not just a childrens’ movie. Go see it!

On scarier note, do you recognize this lovely mug?

It is the SheSpencer, douchebag Spencer’s sister. Arrested for shoplifting and drug charges last year! Read more about that nonsense here.

I’m working like 37 million hours this week so I decided to treat myself to something nice. At first I was thinking an iPhone, but I already have a Blackberry Pearl. The Pearl is a really nice phone but since the iPhone came out, I’m feeling kind of out of date. Yeah, I know, I’m completely ridiculous. I like being on top of my shit though, man, so whatever! Anyway, I decided that my using my Pearl, isn’t like living in the technological Stone Age and I need to just shut up.

But…but…that $400 can go a long way, especially if you’ve been thinking about a nice bag.

I love handbags. A lot. I’m also very picky so it takes me forever to decide what I want. My first designer handbag was a Marc Jacobs by Marc Jacobs Totally Turnlock Faridah. It’s a gorgeous color, roomy and just the perfect everyday bag. I’ve been contemplating my next handbag for awhile. Yes, it takes me forever to decide but I know it’s right once I get it.

Currently, I am loving the Dr. Q Groovee in Chocolate. Do I really want a brown handbag though? I kind of wanted my next one to be in black. Oooh! But wait…Barney’s has it exclusively in black!

And then there is Louis Vuitton. I’ve never been a fan of the Louis Vuitton monogram. Never been a fan of print all over a bag…period. Then sometime last year, I came across the Damier Azur line, specifically the Speedy 25. I have never wanted a bag so bad. The color is great, nice and clean looking. It’s perfect.

So do I get the black bag I’ve been wanting? Since winter is coming up, it would be nice to have a darker handbag. Or do I get the bag I’ve wanted for the longest time? LV is classic. It will never go out of style.

Well, my dear blog, in a 2 weeks, maybe 3, I will be taking a stroll down the Magnificent Mile, into Louis Vuitton, throwing down a ridiculous amount of money and walking out with a gorgeous handbag.

Love it.

Last year around Christmas time, I was putting together a box of loveliness for a friend who lives on the east coast. I was scouring the internet for cute, fun things I would want myself to give this person. I can’t even remember where I found Pink Loves Brown but I’m glad I did. I have yet to buy some items for myself but I plan on it eventually, probably some book plates for my ever growing library. Pink Loves Brown is also Chicago girl!
