"Ho Ho Ho..... Heres some chocolate." Lily Dawson Wrap Bracelet

So I'm sitting reading my new book.. (that I'm mildly obsessed with) at Starbucks this morning and literally a man who looked exactly like Santa (dressed in the suit and all) came in, ringing bells saying "Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas!" and he had 3 elves with him, that were also dressed in costume.. going around handing out Hershey Chocolate bars.  Very random. I have decided that he really might be Santa, due to the fact that he gave me one of my favorite things on planet earth: chocolate.  Although, he could have given me a caramello or a whatchamacallit bar. 

I need Christmas eve to be here so I can get my black boots from my grandma, so I can use my new Ann Taylor Loft super duper tights, and one of the many new dresses I've treated myself to..  Yes.

Also, my black Uggs, the black fur keeps bleeding onto my feet... not a fan of this.  So I'm wearing my camel pair today.. as well as sitting here with my Monsanto blanket trying to stay warm.

In the best mood today, life is good =)

Fact of the day:

I didnt become a coffee drinker until my last semester of college, and now I drink it every single day- until about noon. I go to Starbucks every morning and read (or listen) to my book of the week, for about 40 minutes, and relax before I head to work. 

Product of the day:

Lily Dawson Bracelet

I am obsessed with this bracelet, it is so cute. Lily Dawson is a desginer based out of Columbia Missouri, and went (or still attends? Im not sure) Mizzou.  Her stuff is awesome, I get her email blasts and she is always offering discount to enter at the check out.  Plus... I have a 50 percent off code from her, if anyone is interested.. let me know, $30 dollars for that bracelet isnt bad!  Plus, it isnt main stream... thats what I've been going for lately.  Designers that not everyone and their brother has.  Plus, supporting independent designers always makes me feel good.  There are so many different creative designers out there who have such awesome stuff.  Its just you usually pay the price for that! I think its totally worth it. I love to have stuff that other people dont have.  Which is dumb, because I tend to buy a lot of stuff at Victorias Secret, J Crew, Ann Taylor Loft, Forever21.... yeah.  Who doesnt shop at those places.. I mean, really.

It is 15 degrees in St. Louis.  Dear God.
