the first cut is the deepest

Rae and I are both having cut or not to cut hair moments. The grow out phase is a confusing time in every woman's life. But Rae, if we're being honest with ourselves, we both have really good hair. Really good RED hair at that. So suck it blondes. Here's to haircuts. Or not. Damnit! What to do?!

don't call me...



Dear Modcloth,

You won me over with your charming vintage inspired styles, vegan shoes, and lovely but not warm winter coasts. But this Millicent Dress has officially made me doubt you. What kind of deranged Alice in Wonderland frock is this? Seriously, what? This is horrible. Giant lace collar, unexplainable extra side boob roominess, and flared bracelet length sleeves? Make it stop.

P.S. Deliver my shoes by this weekend. And they better fit.

Love, Lou

YouTube collaborative music project

Here's a fun little toy to spice up your Tuesday.

Since I possess zero musical knowledge or talent, this seems like a little bit of magic.

Lush Crush



November is National Blog Posting Month! We are already 2 days behind. Rae, let's get our act together! I'll start.

I am officially obsessed with Lush cosmetics.

Snowcake Soap makes my not only me, but my entire apartment smell almondy and delicious. Fresh Farmacy cleanser has cleared my skin up in two days.

Next stop: toner, moisturizer, and lip balm.

Being a girl is fun.

calendar swap!

I am super excited to participate in the 2010 Calendar Swap (brought to you by Design Crush and Greedy Girl)

Participants are paired up and spend $20-$30 on a pretty 2010 calendar and send it to their partner.

I swooned over my 2008 Snow and Graham calendar and few years ago and was never able to commit on a 2009 calendar. This calendar swap is perfect! I get a surprise calendar and I get to send a stranger a surprise! I <3 blog community fun! There are so many fun options!







Flapper Doodles?! In calendar form!

If I had access to chocolate cookies, I'd be eating them all day.

is it that easy?

I found this Martha Stewart image via Bliss and I am totally intrigued.

























Can I really just tie a ribbon around my foot before I put my flats on and have it look this cute? Will the ribbon actually stay as neat and tidy as it looks? It's so pretty and easy! But will it work in real life?

virtual housewarming
























Happy Housewarming Rae! I had grand plans to send you these flowers and then I looked at my bank statement and came crashing back to reality. So, until my reality is more than a question mark, here are some virtual flowers to celebrate your new home. Yay fall!

simple pleasures

I'm REALLY excited about the baked potato I'm eating for dinner tonight.

Really. Excited.
























(thank you Flickr for making me even more excited with this photo)

Hope your dinner is yummy tonight!

Humor me.

I'm in an unusually chipper mood this morning, so you'll have to forgive the hokey song lyric quote. But isn't it a nice reminder, really?
