Ode to consumerism

Today on WINOW, a list of things I am loving recently:

  • Bath and Body Works' new Cherry Blossom collection. Smells so good, so light and so different than other stuff, and it reminds me of cherry blossom trees, which are seriously one of my favorite things of all time. I am particularly enamored with the whipped body cream and the bath bubbles. Enamored enough, actually, that I am saddened to see they will only be available for a limited time. I may even go back and buy some more to stockpile.
  • The Clarks Eliot. I love these so much I have them in both black and brown, and if I could find them in my size in ketchup or purple, I'd have those too. They look cute, they go with everything, and they are so comfortable.
  • Jockey bra style 4701. Best. bra. ever. No wire, incredibly comfortable, and still reasonably attractive. Love it.
  • Mix and match bridal seperates. No, I am not having a wedding, or even going to be in one, but I love this concept, plus I think it is fun to play with.
  • Loretta Lynn's Jack White-produced album, Van Leer Rose. I can't stop listening to it.
  • Lane Bryant's Lafayette sateen cropped pants. They come in awesome colors (even though the black ones are the only ones I actually like on me) and they have an awesome pseudo-50's style, plus they don't make me feel like a walrus.
  • The Austin Goodwill. I could so go here every day. And sometimes I do.
  • Bitch magazine. I read the last issue cover to cover, and damn it was good! Gotta remember to renew that subscription.
  • The Behr paint website. I am so close to deciding on the colors for our new house. Really. I swear.

For better or for worse after just having bought a house, I found you some Clarks Eliot in Ketchup here. Be sure to post the colors you decide on for the house. I chose Behr paints last summer as the brand that I wanted to go with, but I'm not any closer to having picked out the colors than having a particular hue in mind for each room (we must have 30 Behr paint cards hanging up around the house). Is this for inside or outside?

This is for inside. I think I am going to go back to Home Depot today, after having looked at the house again this morning. I have a pretty clear idea of what I want, just have to narrow it down to exacts.
