Raindrops on roses....

"whiskers on kittens" and "warm woolen mittens" are great and all, but they don't really top my list of
favorite things.
in fact, I think "snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes" are itchy and rather annoying
but LIKE Maria from the Sound of Music
{and Oprah duh}
I too have a list of favorite things...
and in no particular order, here they are!


1. Rockaholic Dry Shampoo by TGI
I have THIN hair.
thin hair that tends to get oily QUICK
I also have extensions
extensions that take FOREVER and a day to blow dry
therefore, this is one of my FAVORITE products
and much better than baby powder
{the BF got a little sick of my hair smelling like "a babys ass" so I had to find other options}

2. Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer
Lightweight, great coverage, SPF, oil free
what's not to like?!
{shout out to my sister Kirsten for this stellar recommendation}
Thanks KIRST

3. Stella and Dot jewelry
Often spotted on celebrities AND *L*Mo
this is one jewelry line I cannot live without

4. The Lululemon yoga pant
I've never met a lululemon piece I didn't like/love
but
the yoga pant is a must have!
I'm a fan of anything that can simultaneously make my BUTT and STOMACH look good
this baby does the trick!  

5. Michael Kors Watches
I have this watch in silver and gold
and i need it in every other color
{seriously I cannot get enough of these!!!!}
everyone and their mother happens to own one
*but I still loooooove them*

6. Gucci bags
Now I love Louis Vuitton as much as the next girl
but
Gucci is another one of my faves
{plus Lauren used Louis in her fave things blog and I gotta keep it fresh to entertain us both!}
I consider my Horsebit Hobo my first born
and my large travel duffel is perfect for traveling
{and always gets me a compliment or two so you can't hate that}

7. Restaurant James Randall
Started by my friends, {mom and son duo}
Brenda Hammond and Ross Hanson
this restaurant is like crack to me
if you go here, it is absolutely necessary to do it
"Ross'way"
he will pick his favorites and send them on out!
Some of my fave dishes include the foie gras
{I should have made foie gras a favorite thing standing alone...i love it that much}
chicken and waffles, fried sushi roll, and the gnocchi
BEST.RESTAURANT.EVER.

8. Tom Ford Charles Aviators

If ever there was one accessory
ONE accessory you feel like you can't live without
these would be mine
I loooove TOM FORD shades 
I already have the Whitney 
which is why it's hard to justify a second sunglass purchase upwards of $400
still
I promised myself these after my first sales commision check
turns out I don't really make as much as I thought and that $400 has continually gone to other things
one day...

9. Rombauer Chardo
Love it. Need it.
Romby can always take the blues away
period.
paragraph.

10. Erase Paste
My sister Whitney discovered this favorite makeup thing
{thanks WHIT}
we both have the unfortunate genetic curse of dark circles
this, ladies and gents, always does the trick!
just a dab of this miracle worker and I am
good to go!

SO there you have it
my top 10 favorite things
perhaps my gentleman readers will not find this blog post of any interest to them
but you SHOULD
chances are your girlfriend would love one of these things
{PJ should be paying attention to a few as well}
If you don't have a girlfriend, take a girl to James Randall and suprise her with the TF Charles aviators
*poof* instant GF!

Unfortunately
I do not have the kind of money that Oprah does.
If i did,
I would bless ALL of my blog readers with a gift bag full of these things.
Maybe one day...til then, KEEP READING!

xo,
*L*MoPRAH
