Wish List Wednesday


Wish List Wednesday
  
I'm wishing for...



2014 Paper Source Desk Calendar

J.Crew Ceramic Travel Coffee Cup

Bobbi Brown Extra Hand Cream

Smythson Bright Ideas Notebook

Rifle Paper Co. Note Cards


This week's wish list features a little bit of everything. I would really like one of each of the above items. One could say that the above items are all needs not wants. Since the New Year is almost here, I need a new desk calendar as well as a new notebook (like to start the year off properly). I drink coffee like it is going out of style so I'm always hunting for new coffee cups (they get stained inside so fast). Hand cream and note cards are must for me.
 I always need both on hand (no pun intended) for this time of year.

What's on your wish list??
Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Grateful

JenniSixx & Mree

The other day JenniSixx and I were discussing what we were grateful for. 
The first thing that came to my mind and hers was each other. 
We are both extremely grateful for each other. 

It's always been just us.
 Growing up, we had each other to play with, each other to get in trouble with.
We were the only twins at school (grade school) and the kids, well, they weren't always nice to us. 
All they saw were two little chubby girls dressed exactly alike who wouldn't leave each other's side. It was all we knew, each other. We didn't fit in with rest of the kids on the playground. 
We were the weirdos. But we had each other. We always had each other. 
We always say we are nothing without each other, we give each other strength, we give each other  courage.  It's hard to put into words the bond that we have but it runs deep, very deep. 
 Being a twin is unique and special. 
We are both grateful for each other. 


What are you grateful for??
Let us know, we love hearing from you!!
Best, Marie & Jenn

Friday's Fancies- Black Friday

Linking up with {av} for Friday's Fancies.



Black Friday


                      

This week's Friday's Fancies theme is Black Friday. I created an outfit similar to what I would actually be wearing if I was going shopping that day. Since I have to work on Black Friday, I will not be doing any shopping. 
To be honest, I'm not that disappointed, as I think Cyber Monday (Monday after Thanksgiving) has way better deals than Black Friday. 
Do you agree? 

HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEKEND!!

Much thanks to {av} for letting me link up for Friday's Fancies.
Check out her blog, Long Distance Loving, it’s one of my daily reads!!

Are you a going shopping on Black Friday?? 
Let me know, I love hearing from you!!

Beauty Crawl at Lynnfield Market Street

Recently, JenniSixx and I attended the Beauty Crawl at Lynnfield Marketplace.  
It was the opening night of Be Styled and MiniLuxe
 A fun night of pampering and pampered we were!! 

First up, we headed to Be Styled, a blow dry bar. 
While we were getting our hair done, we were lucky enough to have Nick Penna, Jr. Creative Director of BeStyled stop by and chat with us. What a sweet guy. And very stylish!
 He made a point to speak to every person at the event and was quite engaging. 
You do not always see that. Everyone at BeStyled was beyond sweet.
They are now also offering makeup services. We didn't have a chance to get our makeup down (we ran out of time) but it's totally something on our twin to-do list.
 We both loved the way our hair came out.
Seriously, we cannot say enough good things about BeStyled.
This place just rocks!!

Next up was manicures at  MiniLuxe
JenniSixx and I were both taken aback at how pretty this place was. It's quite fancy but without all that pomp that you would expect. As we were browsing around, MiniLuxe's CEO, Sue Thrilwall came over and introduced herself to us. She explained the concept behind MiniLuxe which is a relaxing CLEAN environment. We were both very impressed by her friendliness and knowledge. The place was so clean and did not smell like a normal nail salon. Our mani's were relaxing and came out quite well. We even got to keep the nail file and buffer. Love that!! If you don't want them, they throw them out.
 This place is all about being sterile. Also love that!!

We very much enjoyed getting our hair and nails done. Both are things we do often and are thrilled to have a new place to go. If we could, I think JenniSixx and I would be at BeStyled once a week. Seriously,  $35 for a blowout that lasts three to four days?? You cannot beat that.
As for MiniLuxe, it's not your average nail salon so it can get pricey. However, they do a fantastic job and you cannot beat how clean and sterile it is. Well worth it.

 It was such a fun night.
We chatted with some amazing people and were pampered all at the same time.
How great was that? Who doesn't love that?
JenniSixx and I both made future appointments at each place. 

Huge thank you to BeStyled and MiniLuxe for a fabulous night.

Have you been to Lynnfield Market Street Shops??
Let us know, we love hearing from you!!
Best, Mree & JenniSixx



Be Styled  and Miniluxe services were provided for free.

Motto for Monday

Pinterest


I'm the first to admit that I have an addiction, an addiction to handbags.  I have lost count of how many bags I have.  Last time I counted, it was well over 50.  50 plus handbags is not normal.  I know this. Handbags are my thing, I "collect" them. Really, I love all my handbags, they are my babies.  
However, now that I'm older I realize that I want to collect moments not things. In fact, having so many of handbags, there are days where I'm simply overwhelmed with which one I should use. 
I have lost hours debating what bag to bring out that day. Pathetic, I know. 

This year, I decided that I'm not going to be this person filled with things. I want moments, special moments, memories. I would rather go someplace than have another bag. Ok ok, I may debate whether or not I need that new bag but I'm trying very hard not to add anymore bags.
 (Thanks friends for talking me out of that Saint Laurent bag)

Collect moments not things. Memories last a lifetime, those handbags won't.
Well, my Chanels and Hermes could...lol

What's your motto for the day??
Let me know, I love hearing from you!!
Best, Mree

Friday's Fancies-Pretty in Plaid

Linking up with {av}for Friday's Fancies.




Pretty in Plaid



                                       

This week's Friday's Fancies theme is Pretty in Plaid. My outfit was inspired by an Alexander McQueen dress that I recently saw at Neiman Marcus. How great is this dress?? I added black knee high boots and a motorcycle jacket to make it look a bit edgy. Normally, I'm not that edgy but every now and then I add an edgy piece to my outfit to shake things up a bit. A motorcycle jacket is the perfect item to add some edge. 

Have a FANTASTIC weekend!!

Much thanks to {av} for letting me link up for Friday's Fancies.

Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere 30

Introducing my new purse...

Isn't she pretty? 
She was quite hard to photographed as she still has the indentations from when she was in the box. They should go away with wear, at least I hope they do. 
What drew me to her was that she can be carried both handheld and crossbody. 
To personalize her, I added my initials which were free of charge. 
In my eyes, one can never have too many monogrammed items. Ha! 

Thanks to Bmoney for the fantastic pictures!! 
If you are in the Boston area and are looking for a fantastic photographer, please check out Bmoney. She is wonderful to work with and makes anyone feel like a natural in front of the camera.
Check her out at Rebecca Murray Photography.

What do you think of my new purse??
