Reality Check

In my last post, I had my dream birthday wish list. This time around, everything on this list is more attainable. Meaning I would be able to get these myself.
Although it would be to have any of these items from this list and my dream list land on my front door. :P


I love the scene in this necklace. Reminds me of something you would see in Meet Me in St. Louis. Plus I like how it's set against the dark green. Not exactly emerald, May's birthstone, but it works. A really great find on Etsy.

With her blend of sarcasm and cynicism , Daria was one of those shows on MTV that was smart and funny; a rarity these days. I just want to spend the whole day reliving her days at Lawndale High with her best friend Jane, ditsy sister Quinn and airhead couple Jake and Britney. Plus, wasn't Trent, Jane's brother, a hot looking animated character? :P




Grey Gardens Documentary and Movie

Oh, Little and Big Edie Beal with their fascinating, eccentric life. You can say that they are free spirits, but there's a bit of sadness knowing that they still had dreams that never came in fruition. Especially for Little Edie. But this often referenced (in pop culture and in fashion) documentary is something that must be watched and the 2009 movie starring Drew Barrymore (Little Edie) and Jessica Lange (Big Edie) which chronicles their life before and during the filming of the documentary  is a great companion. 




Bacon and Cupcakes Tote

Original Artwork: Mini Watercolor "Cuppie and Gnome"

  
I discovered CakeSpy a few months ago and wondered why I didn't find it sooner! It's a great site about desserts. Also Jessie Oleson, The CakeSpy is a talented artist. I would love to carry around the bacon and cupcake (two of my favorite things!) tote. Plus wouldn't this Gnome and Cupcake watercolor look adorable in a kitchen?

Wow, that necklace is beautiful, I have never seen one like that. I wouldn't have posted it here because I'd be afraid someone would snatch it up before me, haha.

Oooo, Meet me In St. Louis! It's been WAAAAy too long since I've watched that! I will have to remedy that immediately. Thanks for the reminder! And yes, Gray Gardens! Yes yes yes!
