Wishful Shopping on a Tuesday . . .

Today I am pining for so many things...

For some reason, I have had this incredible urge to buy something... just for the sake of having something "new" -- and maybe that wonderful anticipation of receiving something in the mail. 

These are the lovelies that I'm currently swooning over:

lovely 50's style bathing suit: JCrew

This adorable ring {I've been eyeing for months now}: Sundance

This beautiful print from Etsy {would look stunning in my living room}

Some slouchy brown {or black} boots: These are from Free People

And some bright new bedding... from Anthropologie 
{in a perfect world where everything is inexpensive}

just a few things... if only I were rich, right?

; )

enough already anthro . . .

anthropologie has a keen sense of how to get me to give them my money. not only do they have clothes, and decór, and books, and jewelry... now they're begging me to own one of their planter pots.
how absolutely adorable is this little thing? i must have one.

but alas, i have a black thumb, a VERY black thumb.
but these pots make me want to turn it green.

you win again, anthropologie.

monday wishes...

today i wish...
{photo taken saturday during a rainstorm out Mr. D's window}

...the rain would come back. 
i seriously sleep sooooooo much better at night when i can hear rain falling outside my window.

... monday were friday. 
i just wasn't ready to face another beginning of a week. i was still very attached to the weekend and wasn't ready to let go...

... plants would not die under my wrath.
water or no water, they seem to always die under my care.
the plants in the photo are Mr. D's plants.
he has a green thumb... and i do not.

... running today will be easy.
though i know it will be hard. i haven't run in 3 days.
it's going to hurt. but a girl can hope...

... i would find $100 on the ground.
it would seriously help a lot. the beginning of the 
month is always so stressful. right?

... for my friend's luck to turn around.
she's had some serious personal crisis' happen
and i wish i could just give her a hug.

... Macys will accept my return with no questions asked.
i'm always so bad at being firm and stubborn when it comes to that stuff.

... that this ring would magically appear in my mailbox.
again, sundance is tempting me 
with their gorgeous, expensive rings

... for monday, and the rest of the week, to fly by.
because weekends are just too far away on mondays.
and you know how much i love my weekends.

happy monday everyone!!
how was your weekend?

mine, in a word, was productive.

i ran errands.
i played poker with friends.
i lost at poker.
good thing Mr. D is good at poker.
i cooked.
i cleaned.
i did some dishes.
i paid rent. BOOOOOO
i stayed in PJ's until 1:00 pm - yeah!
i watched the US vs. Canada hockey game
i watched funny people - not a funny as you'd think
i went shopping with a bestie... always fun!
i got a very cute new shirt -- very summer!
i watched food network
i walked olive
i slept a ton

all in all -- it was a great weekend
here's to a great week!

little tidbits i'm loving today...

1} soreness from yesterday's workout
my legs hurt so good! -- darn those lunges

2} my new, and super awesome adidas watch!
i've been wanting a white digital watch for some time.
this one's perfect. i love this little baby!

3} a girls night turned dance party... laughter for hours!
if you have a Wii, go get the game just dance -- so fun!

4} my new cream colored ballet flats!
$12 and they're comfy - love when that happens!

5} oh, and this video...
{i still haven't figured the whole video on a blog thing. 
someone please save me -- hahaha}
i seriously have watched this like 10 times...
it's amazing. like UH-MAZING...
just beautiful.

happy thursday!!

the last wednesday...

well, it's finally here... almost.
tomorrow morning i will be moving into my new apartment.
and hopefully it won't be raining.

last night i made the "i'm moving" target shopping trip.
i got a new rug which was much needed {shown below}
some essentials, and some storage boxes.


i've been saving clips and pics for color inspiration
from websites and blogs... and i have so many ideas!


i can't wait to start decorating and making this place "me" -- ya know?
right now it just looks like a plain old apartment, but it's gonna be great.
right now i'm really loving earthy greens and bright accents,
deep purples and golds... oh i could go on for days...
wait, i've already done that! HA...

the BEST thing about moving?

getting organized!
and we all know how much i love being organized.
you might even call me a little OCD...
