In Anticipation of Spring...

I cannot WAIT for spring to hit. I anticipate doing alot of travel - Vancouver and NYC respectively. I am also anticipating my official move to Seattle. I have been looking at places - alot of places, lol - and I am settled on two buildings, both new. Anyway, my dream has been to have a perfume bar in my new pad, and these scents are a few I really want to add to my collection (I'm obsessed with perfume - I get it from my mother - elegant).

#1) CHANEL No. 5 Eau Premiere


Okay, I was downtown Seattle last Saturday and a woman at Nordstrom pretty much bumrushed me with a sample of this perfume...My reaction went from surprised to scared to annoyed to grateful! This perfume smells AMAZING!

#2: Trish McEvoy Sexy #9


Okay, for whatever reason I am loving numbered scents right now...I am in love with the simplicity of the idea. Okay, get ready for what I am about to say. If you haven't already smelled this perfume, get into your car immediately and drive to the closest Nordstroms. Someone got me stuck on this scent - I have been thinking about it non-stop since the moment I first smelled it - It was love at first sniff, lol.

#3: John Paul Gaultier Classique


This ones for you Andrew: My brother, being the chic fashion boy that he is ( I did well, lol) loves the JPG perfume series. He is always talking about them, when we are discussing perfume/cologne. He is going to make some girl exceptionally happy one day - he is beyond male supermodel material. Love him to absolute pieces. This will be my next purchase after Sexy #9.

Currently Obsessed With...

Lola by Marc Jacobs. Me and my girl Julie (SHOUTOUT!) were browsing the perfume section of Nordstoms the other day, and came across this little gem. One sniff (lol) and I'm obsessed. I think I want to have a "perfume bar" in my house...when I finally settle down and buy one. Not right now though...there's still too much to see.

Dolce & Gabbana - The Anthology

I absolutely adore Dominico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana. I feel like they owe it to the female population to continue doing what they do, which is making women all over the world feel extremely glamourous, sexy, desired, and loved.

I was out shopping with my mom this afternoon, and came across their new Anthology collection, and feel inlove, completely. Each scent is distinct and defined, and beautiful. I want each and every one of the female scents. I have also decided that my perfect man would be posession of the male fragrances. When I first saw the ad for this collection a few months ago, I didn't really know what to expect from the individual scents. Quite honestly, it didn't make a whole lot of sense to me, initially. It wasn't until I smelled the scents in person - the samples in the ads do nothing for them - that I understood, and in turned loved, the genius of this collection. Needless to say, I invested a beautiful chunk of change on my first of the five, #18, La Lune. But I need them all, so I am barely satisfied. I feel remarkably attractive while wearing this...it's amazing.

From left to Right:

Le Bateleur (#1)

The Personality: The Seducer. Provacative and playful - ragingly passionate, yet inevitably cool - this is a man who gets what he wants. Dominant and distinctive, resolutely direct, Le Bateleur is an accomplished Mediterranean seducer.

L'Imperatrice (#3)

The Personality: The Star. Flamboyant and energetic, for L'Imperatrice life is a movie and she is its heroine. All heads turn when she enters a room. Vibrant, magnetic she exudes charisma and force of character.

L'Amoureux (#6)

The Personality: The Charmer. An incurable romantic in posession of an inherent nobility, dashing L'Amoureux melts the most cynical of hearts. Desired by all he meets, this charmer is all about intensity.

La Roue De La Fortune (#10)

The Personality: The Player. Adventurous and creative - the epitome of surprise - La Roue De La Fortune is governed by the roll of the dice. It's wearers are intrepid, experimental, players of life's game.

La Lune (#18)

The Personality: The Dreamer. La Lune is a perfect enigma: fresh yet sensual, dazzling yet forever retaining her secrets. She enthralls everyone she encounters with her radiant and ethereal beauty.

Trust me, go buy one for yourself, and one for your loved one. It changes things. Verrrrry Sexy.
