I hope your 2007 is joyful and filled with lots of love and laughter.
I just wanted to thank my friends and readers for all the kind words and support this year. You have no idea how much it has warmed my heart.

This was what was on my list for Santa this year…

Sunday while I was poking around at a indie craft fair at Union Station, I came across these local designers and I fell in love with their jewelry. Check out their stuff here.

I guess I should tell you guys about my celebrity encounter, while I was in San Diego I interacted with super blogger Gregg O’Connell. Who is this Greg character I speak of? Well over a year ago one of my friends sent me a link to a video, which I found extremely hilarious, as did everyone I sent it too. We watched his video so much we knew his dance routine down to the hand motions. Then for the next year we proceeded to perform that dance anywhere and anytime the song girls just want to have fun came on. Then one fine day I was surfing the world wide web looking for fun blogs to add to my blog roll and came across his again. I decided to leave him a comment confessing my infatuation with his dance moves. A minute later he emailed me back telling me he grew up in MA also and instantaneously we were blogging BFF’S…True story!

You can read about our encounter here…Gregg was very modest and left out the fact that our dinner got interrupted every five minutes from crazed fans wanting his autograph.

And already swamped with things to do. I have a million things to post about, but I got my Moo business cards in the mail today and it made me want to work on my mini business. So off I go to make price tags, signs and displays.

Merry X-mas everyone. Yes that’s Punky on the left in the “I’m a Toys R Us Kid” sweatshirt, and that’s me next to her. She always was better at doing her hair…

While I was browsing around Lincoln Road on Sunday we decided to stop in at 810 Lincoln, otherwise known as one of the ArtCenter/South Florida locations. I highly recommend checking this out if you’re in the area. My favorite pieces were done by a local artist, Lazaro Amaral, go to his site and check some of it out.

There is nothing better than coming back from vacation with a whole new arsenal of style ideas and inspiration. I just flew back from Miami this morning and I’m still giddy about all my great finds while I was there. Not only are the women beautiful, but so are their clothes, and I love how they mix new with vintage and casual with dressy for a perfectly unique look.

I love the shops on Lincoln Road, and the stores on Collins and Washington, and unfortunately my friend put me on shopping groundation after that. My favorite store of all had to be Sasparilla Vintage at 1630 Pennsylvania Ave, right off of Lincoln Road. Check out Refinery 29 for more information on Sasparilla as well as some other fun things to do while down South. I’ll get some pictures up soon so you can see exactly what I’m talking about, but in the meantime, here’s a picture of the ocean to really inspire you.

Some quick news before I head to cali, this weekend is the Open Market in New Bedford. I’m heartbroken because I will miss it, But you should check it out there are a bunch of cute stores in that area.

Lily Allen is in this months Nylon and will be on the Jimmy Kimmel show December 5th which is beyond awesome.

My cousin Linnea from Linnea Dates is going to be filling in for me this week, I told her she could write about whatever she likes (although posting bad pictures of me is out of the question) She’s a terrific writer so your in for a treat.

One more thing…while I’m in California I’ll be visiting the infamous Gregg O’Connell We have big plans to make a kick ass music video, So you should be watching for that. Have a great week everyone

Peace, Love And Punks
