MY WEEKLY JOURNAL UPDATE

As of today N8 and I are 34 days away from our special Wedding Day, and we are really excited. The wedding weekend is really coming together and I tear up every time I think about everything that's happening, going to happen, what other people are doing for us, it's a very special and emotional time in our lives :)


Since my surprise Bachlorette Party Weekend in Vegas, my work screensaver is of my fabulous girlfriends that have been with me from the start of my independent live to the day I married my best friend.


In other less emotional news, my nail polish addiction has reached an all-time high... The last couple of months have been really busy at work, to the point I don't leave my desk or office for hours... A great stress reliever and treat I gave to myself was a shopping spree on Nail Polish Canada.com! I bought the most amazing colours, and have been enjoying wearing each one since I got them. In order of pics; Mermaid by Deborah Lippmann, Macbeth by Butter London, and Ruby Red Slippers by Deborah Lippman. I would love to wear Mermaid with my Wedding Dress but I want to get shellac polish done before that weekend so I don't have to worry about chipping.





New additions...


Another "stress relieving" moment in my life was buying a beautiful new shirt before the Coldplay Concert my amazing boyfriend/fiance took me to recently. 





Yesterday I built a clothing rack we bought ages ago and used to help me clean out my closet! 



It may or may not look like it, but it's a thousand times better and more organized then before. I cleanse my closet at least twice a year, it feels so good after, and to donate my gently used clothes and accessories to Goodwill and Salvation Army.

This weekend N8 is out of town and it's just been my cute cat, Nigo and me cleaning house and chilling while watching the 2012 Olympics in London.

DREAM DESIGNER SHOPPING: A-D

Last post about my dream designer Summer/Spring 2012 right off the runway shopping. These posts are a great idea and I can't wait to do another one for Fall/Winter, but I get a little sad when I think about how far these beautiful clothes are from my reach. I have always said, and always will say, that when I feel 'I have made it,' I am going to buy myself a Chanel 2.55 Handbag. One of my ultimate fashion dreams.
