In my life pretty much everybody is a huge dog lover, and that doesn’t stop with my business partners. Dana has two dogs and Maya has a two as well. Recently Maya’s super-sweet boyfriend got her a gift certificate to have her dogs groomed, so we took them up there last week. They came back looking like different dogs!
When we were on our way home from picking them up I realized we were going to pass another Cincinnati institution, Putz’s Creamy Whip. We had a few minutes so we decided to stop for ice cream. I love Putz’s so much. :)
Last week the boy and I drove out to the suburbs to visit the wondrous Gabriel Brothers. Gabe’s is kind of like a TJ Maxx in that they get in overstock designer-y stuff, but I love them infinitely more. Their stuff is really cheap and you can get Urban Outfitters, The Limited, BCBG, and a bunch more! This skirt is one of my UO finds- nice light chiffon, pockets, and only $5! It’s fantastic. Even their tights and belts and other accessories are like $2 and $3. I’ve been pretty much living in this skirt since I bought it. 
The other new piece that I’ve been really obsessed with are my Ann Taylor tuxedo shoes. I came so close to not buying them because the inner lining of them is completely crumbling and makes your feet all gross. However, I love them and if I hadn’t bought them I know I’d be totally kicking myself in the ass. Only $7!
Here it is- my beautiful little Fancypack!! I wore it out to the bar for the first time this last Friday and as I was walking there someone spotted and recognized it as a Fancypack! It made me so happy that she’s really gaining notoriety, she totally deserves it.

Sine mine is a mini it only has two pockets, but it’s perfect for just the essentials. Lately I haven’t been carrying a purse at all, I just take my wallet and go so this is great for me.
I’ve hardly ever worn it but I really love this paisley top, especially the satin lapels. Supercool.
