The Happy Post

It's October!
My favorite month ever is here again!

I'm so happy that it's finally time for pumpkins and costumes and endless hours of watching Hocus Pocus.

We're also opening the tea house this month...which I will be blogging about soon.

Goodness, I love October!

It Boy Of The Month: Bradley Cooper

For no other reason...
except...

He's a flippin babe.

And...my heart completely skipped a beat when I saw him in that black shirt in The Hangover.

That's how foxy he is.

I confess

I've listened to Girls Aloud all week.

My love for Taylor Swift has only increased since the little VMA spectacle.

Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus.

Don't get me started.

I cried during the movie.

I totally blame Andrea for making my secret obsession worse.

And I definitely bought 3 different items from her Wal-Mart line.




Cooper chewed up my tan uggs.

And I feel lost without them.

I had no idea how much I loved and relied upon them.

Yes.

I admit it.

I love my uggs.

There is nothing better than to put poor, arthritic, over-danced feet into a pair of Uggs.


And I confesss...

This is what my dreams look like.

The Happy Post

1. My Hunter Wellies!

They've kept me dry throughout this wet week...

I want a pair in every color!

and the foxy Followill boys love 'em for Glastonbury.

2. Hot Chocolate

3. Lovely, magical snow flurries.

4. Having Jamie, Claire, Roger, and Brianna back in my life

(but having a heart wrenching longing for Scotland)

Which brings me to....

5. Just being happy that I've been to Scotland twice.

I'll get back one day...and I will be married at Eileen Donan

(but hopefully not for awhile, I have too many other weddings to go to!)

September 22

It's a good day, kids.

Today An Echo In The Bone was released!

I'm warning you now, after I finish this blog, you probably won't hear from me for a few days.

Too much reading to do!

Anyway, it's snowing like crazy, so it's a good time to snuggle up an read.

I love Colorado in September, you never know what's going to happen.

For example, this was Sunday's outfit...

It was 80 degrees.

This was the view out my window on Monday...
It was 30 degrees...

and this was Monday's outfit...

This was today...

And today's outfit

And next week it's supposed to be 70.

Good ole Colorado.

It keeps my closet on constant rotation.

Never a boring moment!

Back to Jamie and Claire...

and this amazing apple bread recipe I made yesterday!

(go on, make it! you'll thank me later!)

It Band Of The Month: The Plastiscines

I really became a fan of French Pop-Punk in 2007 when I was promoting over myspace to European music fans. Bands like Second Sex and BB Brunes became my soundtrack during that fall because I was targeting their fans everyday.

The band that really stuck out to me, though, were The Plastiscines.

They were so young and stylish, and how often do you find an all girl band?

No, The Donnas do not count.

I loved their hair, and their style, and their sunglasses.

I loved that the lead singer's name is Katty (represent).

I loved that Nylon loved them, too.

I have been able to keep up with them over the past two years thanks to Nylon.

Now that Nylon has signed them, and they hang out with Patrick Wolf all the time, they've just gotten so much cooler.

Admittedly, they're not a GREAT band, but they don't pretend to be.

They're just four girls who want to be glam rockers.

They pull it off quite well.

Barcelona is my new favorite party song.

Their bangs are what really sold me, though.

I dare you to find me a band with better bangs.

Basically Amazing!

I love these two so much, it's really kind of ridiculous.

Oh Sienna, one day we will be best friends.
