champagne friday!!

Happy Friday Everyone! It's no secret that leather is everywhere, and I love it!  Here you have your Champagne Friday item of the week!  The Muubaa Draped Leather Jacket found in the Savvy section at Nordstrom (you know, that section where you can look but don't touch).  I have a feeling this $398 leather awesomeness will be on my mind for awhile. But in the mean time, I will still wear my faux leather bomber from XXI (Fancy for Forever 21).





Oh and if you need any help getting through today, this has been helping me the past few days.  GirlTalk All Day-Mashup Breakdown.  Number 3 and 11 are my favorites!

champagne friday- holiday edition

It only seems appropriate to have a holiday edition of Champagne Friday!  Not to freak anyone out, but we only have 3 Fridays, (including Christmas Eve) until Christmas is here!  I am in love with these Christmas items...not all of them are super expensive but oh so wonderful, it is that time of year you know.

It's Champagne Friday Everyone!

Since I am one of the few Americans working today, I spent some extra time working on this week's Champagne Friday items (don't tell my boss).  Ever been to Polyvore.com? No? Well, you should.

My thoughts this morning started with looking for that "it" holiday cocktail dress and since I was having no luck, I remembered I had made a few outfits for a contest on Polyvore.  I rekindled my love and ended up making a fabulous outfit, although I don't know if holiday party is the right place for it?  I was thinking more Vegas.  Either way I LOVE everything about it, and when I muster up $1,554 (shoes were on sale) I will buy it, and wear it, whether I go to Vegas or not.

Also, I don't have a holiday party that requires a cocktail dress, nor have I ever.

its champagne friday

"I want one of these bracelets really bad...I'm so thankful that my impulsive thoughts don't lead to impulsive actions...instead I just blog about them- its good therapy"  
-myself, after seeing such a fabulous bracelet that is depressingly out of my price range

Who just quoted herself? This girl.

After a quick analysis of my blog, I have decided to start Champagne Friday.  A weekly update of my findings that I want, and find it painful that they are just out of range of my bud light (sometimes Stella Atrois) budget.

As noted above, these are often impulses and there is a good chance that by next Friday I may not want them anymore, but just in case I do I can see them on my blog, save up some milk money and purchase one of these items!  And of course, so can you.  And if you do, do you think I could borrow it?

It only seems appropriate to start Champagne Friday with the item that created it...below you have the this gem(s) that spoke to me in an Esty email blast yesterday.  This item oozes fabulous and for only $350 buckaroos (thank you Sarah Gilstrap for such a great word) it could be yours.
