C: Hey dudes. Sorry about the slow posting! It was our first study-free weekend in a LONG time. Here's just a few outfits we threw together while at my house recently! I've been waiting for the perfect chance to bust out these brown wedges... Anyways, i've been watching lots of movies lately: Up (which was so cute), The Orphan (creepy, but a good movie), and Raising Hellen (just simply a good movie). Any others you enjoyed for next weekend? :) Well off to paint my nails with some new polish! +++i'm out.

PS. i just got my cartilage pierced (even though i haven't worn earings in ages), but photos coming soon with that!!

C: So i was mostly up at my grandmas house this weekend, pretty much inside studying.. THE WHOLE TIME! Midterms this week, 1 down. 4 to go :/ Anyways i managed to snap a few shops in the bedroom i slept in.. it was nice and vintage just the way i like it. I was hoping to get down to the avenue to stop by: Free People, LF, Michael Kors, and a few more favorite stops. Unfortunetly i had to get back early because it was SLEETING outside. Although i did see "The Lovely Bones" with my friend, it definitely kept me entertained although it was someone strange. hahaha. but i would recommend it.. i think. Anyways, off to have some yummy dinner and do more studying (blech). +++i'm out.

Ps. I thought i would let you know that my grandma (whose house these photos are from), her name is Hellen Keller! She's not the real one though, just happened to fall in love with Norman Keller. :)

Who doesn't love some accessorizing?

“If we develop a passion for something when we are young, chances are we will still feel passionate about the same thing well into adulthood. The beauty of jewellery is that it holds our memories; a love for jewellery can be inspired at any age and hopefully indulged for a lifetime.” We recently found out about this cute site which sells children's jewellery called "Molly Brown Designer Girls Jewellery." They have earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and you can even design jewellery using many of their charms from her various collections. It was started in May 2006 by a women who was inspired by her daughter to create Molly Brown. It is described by Vogue to be the "Tiffany's for girls," and is now the UK's leading children's jewellery brand. Everything is made using precious metals and they are easily recognizable through the Molly Brown sterling silver logo tag. They're great gifts for kids, I know my sister would love the Red Christmas Fairy Charm. The jewellery is designed to be worn forever, and is very simple yet sophisticated for young girls. Their new hit thing is the Initial Necklace, so don't forget to check that out! Everything is fairly cheap and can easily be ordered off their site. When you order off of the site you get free luxurious gift wrapping from the comfort of your house, and if your purchase isn't right for you it can easily be returned/exchanged. Everything is wrapped in sumptuous brand packaging which is created to reflect the core values of the Molly Brown gift, something to treasure.If you ever need help finding the perfect gift, they have gift guides which will help you find exactly what you're looking for. We have never purchased anything from this site, but we sure will be when one of our siblings birthdays role around. Make sure to check it out!

Just for a laugh:)

M: Hahahahaha.... is all I have to say.

Found this video of us from the summer, oh I miss those days.

Roman Originals

M&C:

Hey everyone!

We have recently heard about this new clothing website called ‘Roman Originals’. It’s more for older women, but there’s certainly some great buys for us as well. But let your moms know about it, because they might enjoy it too! There’s also a lot of different ideas for evening wear. And you know those nights when you just need a nice sweater to put on over a fancy dress.. well we are thinking this may be the place to get it. Their pieces are very purchasable. You can order it online, or just call them and order over the phone. There’s all kinds of sales: dresses, knitwear, tops, blouses, jackets, skirts... and more! And you can sign up for their newsletter and get discounts! We have never bought/ordered something from there, but we’ll certainly be looking around their site for the next time we need a specific piece or even a gift for someone. They also have a blog writer! They write about the newest pieces, currently it’s a fur coat/jacket that looks extremely warm and comfy. And they’ve also written about some great evening gowns and other accessories. So everyone should go check it out, and tell us what you think!

M: Now I know you may not want to read this, too much writing, too many words, I understand. This post is for me, to reflect on 2009, and look back on the good and the bad. Those 365 days consisted of so much, there were moments and memories that changed my life. I think about the time when we would run, without a care in the world, laugh until we clenched our stomachs, cried until no more tears could be shed, and screamed in both joy and anger. I think about the day this blog was started, how excited we were to hear from you guys! And now and then I sometimes think about how many things I could have changed about that year. Now that time is behind us, oh 2009, so much happened within you, but hopefully there is much more to continue. I will be happier, only think of the positive, and only cry of excitement... goodbye 2009, and HELLO 2010!

P.S Happy new year! 2010 BABY
