5, 4, 3, 2, 1

It is only appropriate to ring in the New Year in style. Yes, I am a little early in thinking of what to wear. I have to keep my eye out for that killer dress to say hello to 2010 with. Sequins are always fun!

All dresses via Asos.

SNL

I love some Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Jason Mraz. And of course Dave as Ozzy Osbourne. The Mellow Show. Enjoy.

Carol-Hannah

A wedding dress from Project Runway's Carol-Hannah's wedding Etsy shop! So stinkin' adorable. Her main Etsy shop here.

Can you see my thoughts?

HELLO LOVE!!!! Bryan, I think I just fell in love with your apartment! Yep, I did. No, seriously, this studio is amazing. I want to live in it...well, preferably not in LA though.

Pick your side

Sometimes I like to act like I am still a 13 year old girl. Meaning....I love my Twilight books and movies. I saw New Moon last night and it was a major improvement from Twilight (not hard to do though). So now it is time for a poll. Yippee!

So whose team are you on? Team Edward? or Team Jacob?

(I am Team Jacob. I have been on his team since I read the books a long while back. Edward is dull to me.)

I'd rather be with you

Windows

I just love theis open and light filled room. I really want floor to ceiling windows! But seriously, this room is all kinds of wonderful....and do you see the Boston Terrier? Awesome. I can't really remember where this came from...I belive the Seattle Times though.

Remember Me Trailer

So I am relieved that R Patz isn't a vampire and this movie actually looks rather good.

Review: 'New Moon' better than 'Twilight' in part because it's in on the joke

You should read this review on "New Moon". It's so funny. "

(Thanks to my roommate for finding this article).

oh my gosh, Shoes.

Hello, fabulous pop-up shoe store right in time for the holidays. Solestruck.

The things that are so close...

I feel silly sometimes (and yes, I tend to cause this all on my own). But seriously, Elements Glass shares the same parking lot as my work and I have yet to go into their gallery. Embarrassing. So my new goal, is to go check out this Hot Glass event they have going on starting next week. I am very intrigued. I really want to blow my own Christmas ornament too. Fun. I love blown glass. I went to the Museum of Glass and loved it.

The Burberry House

They really love their Burberry...

anyone out there?

I would like to meet a guy (a straight guy) who will rock a velvet blazer. Well, maybe I should just aim at meeting straight guys in general. I seem to have a problem with that. haha. Oh, but I do love my my wonderful gay friends!

I know you are all so sick of hearing about John Mayer but this will be it for a while (hopefully). I got my cd in the mail today.

Leap Year-Trailer

I love chick flicks. Amy Adams is adorable. Matthew Goode is dreamy. Looks like a fabulous movie.

Carry it.

I would love a new purse for Christmas. I just have to narrow it down to just one purse that I want. ahh.

So sad

You never think it will happen to you. I woke up yesterday morning to learn that my Uncle's restaurant, Emory's On Silverlake, had burnt down. Seriously, unbelievable. I have had so many good memories there and can't believe that it is actually gone. There is still no word on the cause of the fire. Emory's has been a local Everett, WA restaurant for 15 years. At least we will always have the memories.

My Uncle, Emory, drinking wine that was salvaged from the fire. Check out the news article here. And more devastating pictures here.

Clyde Common

I went to happy hour yesterday with my good friend and his dad (they have wonderful taste in food and alcohol). We went to Clyde Common. I highly recommend it! Its vibe is very Portland. The bartender, Jeff, has also been named one of the best bartenders in the US. His drinks were very good indeed!
