Valz Summer Jamz 2012

The ladies, Magic Mike (yes, male strippers), foods, drinks and fun. What else do we need? The Jamz. That's right. Download the playlist here.

One for One v.2

So this is the second time I've posted about wanting these Tom's shoes because with every pair purchased a child in need recieves a pair of their very own. I think two posts warrants an actually purchase. I like this grey and yellow Portsmouth plaid pair. Available at Nordstrom in a size 10.

It's Official

I am old. I actually kind of like these Clarks (YIKES! Did I just say that???) sandals. Since I'm all casual all the time these days, I really want a pair of sandals that allow me to wear my nicer, longer legged jeans. These should work and they won't ruin my feet for fashion. I guess as you get older your priorities really do change. Dammit. Available at Zappos.com.

Queen of the World

This lovely Omorovicza Queen of Hungary hydrating mist (read: fancy water) has two of my favorite scents; orange blossom and rosewater. Allegedly it re-calibrates the skin's pH and keeps make-up looking fresh all day. I just need it to smell fancy and be refreshing. The combination is 14th century inspired. Hmmm. What does that say about me? Available at in the Bliss Catalog or at blissworld.com.

Rawr!

Since Miles has broken all of my necklaces I'm in dire need of a new one. This one is big and sturdy and fun and I think Miles will totally dig it. I will too! Available on Candance Ang's own website.

I've got Tiger Blood*

Since I am the Year of the Tiger on the Chinese Lunar Calendar, I've always had an affinity for Tiger imagery. I've also always had an affinity for well-designed, responsibly produced, stylish footwear. Especially when it is well-designed by an acquaintance of mine who many of my good friends consider a good friend. I've got to get me a pair of these Freewater sandals before summer comes along. Apparently they also help provide clean drinking water to needy communities around the world. Rawr! Available online at www.freewaters.com.

*I picked these up in Santa Cruz and they truly are INCREDIBLY comfortable, fit great and look really cute. I mean, as cute as a size 10 can possibly look.

Traveling in Style

I'm about to board a plane with a baby and no help for the very first time and I'm pretty sure I would feel a whole lot better about it if my luggage was this cute and stylish! I've always wanted a matched set and just haven't found the right one. That is until now. Available at Garnet Hill. I'm willing the universe to bring it to me.
