I first fell for the silhouette of this bag when I saw it on Ashley Olsen's arm a few years ago. Too bad Givenchy sold out faster than my eyes could even pause for a blink. Luckily, I was surprised with a lovely, nearly identical, twin. Talking about the blink of an eye, Christmas Eve is almost here. Thursday to be exact. How time flies! I spend the entire year just waiting for Thanksgiving and Christmas. My two very favorite Holidays!! What are your plans?
American Chic handbag. Juicy Couture coat. Barneys New York sweater dress. Forever 21 skinny jeans. Donni Charm scarf. Dirty Laundry boots.
First snow fall.. Dec. 18.

RIP. Brittany Murphy :(

i love your hair here! gorgeous coat and bag.
ooh great answer to the nightingale, and your hair is fabulous
I love your style so much. It's not forced at all and it makes me feel it's okay to stray from heels more often. [=
For Christmas, I'm spending it with the family and boy. Just having a good time.
I love your style so much. It's not forced and you still look fabulous. Makes me feel safe to stray away from heels every single day (ouch).
I love this look and your hair is gorgeous!

Fabulous look darling, biker chic at it's best
Heyyy I just mailed your present. As for the photos, so excited to finally see some of your new surroundings! And I totally love your boots. My present will fit with them :)
Those yellow buttons are a great pop of colour in the black-and-grey outfit. Did I mention I love your boots? What a shame we aren't the same shoe size... ;( haha.
On Christmas Eve I will probably just be at home with my family and my grandmother, and after that we'll go visit more family, and also spend New Year's Eve with them. But before that, I arranged to meet witrh a friend. She is getting the entire series of the Catherine Tate Show on DVD and we have arranged to meet and watch it. It's SOOO funny. You have to go look it up on YouTube sometime.
Here it's snowing as well. I love it!!!
Do you know how/why Brittany died?
P.S.: YAY so great you sent me a letter! It didn't arrive yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. Mail is a bit slow in the Christmas time :) I can't waitt o receive it!

I cant believe Brittany Murphy is gone...so sad...

When did you get the coat?
Your plait is fantastic. See: braid.
You probably didn't see much snow in Miami! But the wider range of seasons opens the door for even more fashion fun, and you look incredibly chic. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!
such a good find on the purse!
Massively jealous of your HAIRRRRRRR!

Yeah, they don't do refunds for anything. But I mean, if it doesn't fit, I doubt I'll have too much difficulty finding something else.
I love this bag as well. Oo snow! We got some here, too. Haha love Glee!
That damn braid. So damn perfect. Damn it!! LOLOL!!
LOVE how you look here and I too loved the Nightingale. Such a simple black bag. Glad you got a great copy. Why get the real deal when there are ALOT of great alternatives that look just like it?

Holy shit Erika. Here I am, sitting at my desk, freaking out because I thought you had a legit Givenchy bag JUST like Ash's.
Then I scroll down and I realized all that screaming was for nothing.
So the bags are identical to my eye, and I'm really quite jealous.
Long comment, oops.

OMG-that bag is awesome! I honestly though it was Givenchy until I read the post! I love where the straps connect to the body of the bag--that curvy shape.
Gorgeous.
