I love me some cashmere!
I found this fabulous deal today while Christmas shopping. These adorable Cashmere "Pop Top" Gloves come in three different colors: pink, yellow and green. They remind me of when I was a much MUCH younger when I anticipated the snow, missing school and making snowmen. They're quite the bargain at $21.98. Real cashmere for under $25! We're not putting you on - you'll be putting these on!

Add a little bling to your groove thing
It seems like just about everything nowadays is festooned with bling and I'm a huge fan - I, for one, love to sparkle. Reader Cindy just told me about this set of sparkly earbuds that you can use with any personal audio device, including MP3 players, CD players and personal computers. They include wind-up storage case and not only can you choose white or black earbuds to match your audio device, but you can also choose from while, blue, pink and purple rinestone colors. The best part? They're a steal! Originally $19.99, they're now 50% off at $9.99. Rush over and grab yours before they're gone!

Maybe its time to trade in the bottle opener?
While certainly handy, my current bottle-opener key chain (a relic of my former years) is an exact carbon-copy of my fiance's and I have, more than once, left the house with his instead of mine. In my search for a cuter and *eh-ehm* more mature keychain, I found this fancy one. I love it! The pink heart-shaped mother-of-pearl overlay goes perfectly with the silver key chain and hides a locket for your favorite (7/8" x 1") photo. This pretty little keychain is suitably must more mature and even has a round charm that can be monogrammed with up to three initials. Brilliant!

Pretty In The Most Delightful way!
Lately it's been a little rainy. Although it's been a light rain it's just enough to make my hair flat real quick! Pulling out my umbrella recently, it occurred to me that I had this big, old and very unattractive umbrella. Why hadn't I noticed this before? I was quite embarrassed when I took a good look at it. Yes, it's time for a new one. When was the last time I purchased one? Never! I think I was given the one I had and I don't even know by whom, that is how old it is!
So, the search began. Big ones, bright ones, striped ones, so many! I wanted something pretty and unique so I checked out one of my favorite shopping sites, Satinbox, and I found just what I was looking for. The Mary Poppins Umbrella! So pretty, so feminine and pink with little black dots! Although the price was a little more than what I wanted to spend I figured it was a good investment When would I purchase one again? So I might as well get what I want! Just in time for spring!

Don't Forget To Buckle Up!
Buckle up! That's right! Lucy's Sister has made it easy for us to fall in love with the perfect belt/buckle. Hand painted leather designs with multiple buckles to choose from, it's easy to find something you like. I think the daisy and mushroom combo is cute.

No More Homely Hydration!
Nope! I'm ridding my cabinets of all the ugly water bottles that I own. As I rummaged through, it occurred to me that what I had was a slew of mismatched, unattractive, and worn out plastic bottles. Some had lost their shape and their design. That's it! I want a nice water bottle that I would not be embarrassed to carry and one that was made well. Guess what? I found it! Not only is the Fantasy Lifestyle Bottle pretty but it is Eco-friendly, durable and you have the option of eleven different tops to choose from. Now my water bottle will look as good as I do! ;) Other designs include Hello Kitty, Love Potion, Heavy Metal, Yin Yang and many more. All available at My Sigg!

SUN Skin Worshipper!
Oh how I love the sun and how it feels on my face. BUT... the damage isn't worth it! I try to keep my sun exposure to a minimum (some is beneficial) or use a really good sunblock.
I still like to soak up the sun a little and I don't always have my sunblock handy, so when I discovered these cute bracelets I wanted one right away. Uv Sol Beads let you know when you've had enough. Just wear the bracelet and when the color of the beads changes from off-white to color-> Ding! Your done! Protect your skin! Yes, I can justify this little expenditure...after all it's for my health! Order one for only $4.95 + shipping ($0.74).

Pretty Passport Protection!
I am the proud new owner of my very own passport! I'm sure you've all heard about the passport dilemma that has been plaguing the nation. I was part of it and now that I finally have my passport in my hand I'm not letting go. The day it arrived was a big relief for me and it felt like gold in my hands. For those of you who have been waiting like me you know what I mean. To celebrate my long awaited arrival of this precious necessity? Hmmm... a passport cover for my little treasure? Definitely! At handigift.com I found two that I love- Fresh Bloom and Lime! Etsy also has these same covers!

Cool Cup Clothing
I have a confession to make: I am addicted to Starbucks! Of course I live in a town in the middle of nowhere that has six gazillion Dunkin' Donuts but not a single Starbucks. It's a sad state of affairs, I know.
I do make the best of it, though, and pick up my decaf-non-fat-no-whip-sugar-free-hazelnut-latte when I do find a Starbucks, whether I want one or not. I just bring it home, stick it in the fridge and reheat it the next morning. Brilliant!
The thing about Starbucks is that their drinks are so darn hot that I need to use one of those cup sleeves every time I'm there (and I'm there a lot!). It's just one more thing that I have to throw in the recycle bin when I get home, and I'm trying to help the environment by cutting down on my waste.
I'm super-glad that I found an excellent alternative: Cup Couture, fabric re-usable sleeves that help cut down on my waste, keeps my fingers from burning, and makes my latte look lovely.
They come in all kinds of designs including some designs for the fellas. Don'tcha wish you had invented it!?

Flowers that are always in bloom!
These Felt flower pins are a great way to dress up a sweater/jacket and come in all sorts of color combinations. Made in Lowell is where you'll find all the details about these cute flowers and their creator.
Liz was more than happy to create one up for A Girl Must Shop and we opted for white/pink petals with a brown button center. Soooo Pretty! I know just where to place it...on that plain black jacket, or maybe on my blue sweater!
It doesn't stop at the felt flowers; she also makes jewelry, ornaments, and note cards. Look around..you will not be disappointed! Ornaments? That reminds me, Christmas is a little over five months away and I going to start my shopping right here!

Why didn't I think of the Bosom Button!?
There are a myriad reasons why I need to pin the top of my blouse. But the biggest reason (besides my boobs) is that I am five feet tall, therefore my tops are cut too low. Cute if I am going out with my fiance; not cute if I am going to the office or a meeting. Normally I'd use a safety pin, a paper clip, elastics, or I'll wear a tank top under my blouse. I'm thankful that the bosom button was invented, unfortunately, i just wish it were me.

Wintery keychains from Coach
I am in love with this keychain from Coach!
They also have a snowman, a penguin and a snowflake...and for a non-winter theme...a skull and crossbones (it's my favorite!). You can find matching cell phone lanyards, as well!
