August Means One Thing... My Birthday Month!

Happy August friends! It's the most magical month of all... my birthday month!

Oh yes, my family, friends, and loved ones are well aware that August brings incessant chattering about my birthday and the excitement that consumes me throughout the whole month. I've already begun planning my own birthday party - more on that soon! - and of course... a little birthday "wishlist," if you will :)

Here are some things I have had my eye on lately... hint, hint, Mama: 

ONE:

I love artist Lulie Wallace's beautiful flower prints - I own one and it's just beautiful. I would love to keep this calendar in my office throughout 2014 and then frame the pages when the year is over!

TWO:

Tortoiseshell AND colored jewels... could I love this Baublebar necklace more? So interesting and perfect for fall!

THREE:

To know me is to know of my one true love - getting my hair blown out :) A Drybar gift certificate would put a smile on my face like nothing else!

FOUR:

As a lifelong lover of ballet flats AND polka dots, I can't think of any good reason why this shoe should not join me and live in happiness in my closet. I'm a size 9 if anyone is wondering! :)

FIVE:

I already own a Joie tote bag - this one to be exact - and I LOVE it - it's lightweight, well-made, and I get tons of compliments on it. I would definitely be happy with getting a different style to add to my collection, and I have my eye on this chic black/white number!

SIX:

Leopard Lanvin ballet flats. A girl can dream. 

SEVEN:

Such a unique and delicate little pendant! It comes in gold as well but I'm partial to silver. 

EIGHT:

I love the idea of buying a special piece of art on a special occasion - every time you look at it, you are reminded of a happy memory! My mom has given me Jennifer Sanchez art prints for past birthdays and this year, I have my eye on this little painting by Misha Blaise - so beautiful. 

I can tell ya'll one thing - I will be one happy 28 year old if I get to open any of these on my birthday :) Let the countdown begin!!!
