you know how when you enter a room and think..."mmm, it smells good in here"...if i'm there, trust me, it's me! i LOVE perfume...well, all things scented really...candles, linen sprays, those oil burner thingys you plug into outlets, anything! however, just because i have a "scent addiction" i'm still VERY particular about the fragrances i choose but once i fall in love with something i'll spray it on anything and everything...

i am CONSTANTLY getting sniffed down by passers by and told i smell "mmm, mmm good" and always hear people walk into rooms after me and comment "what's that lovely scent?"...some may say i spray too much but i believe i'm just helping the world become a more pleasant, aromatic place :)

when it comes to perfume i tend to love the feminine classics but from time to time i'll find something out of the ordinary that reminds me of a certain time, place or person that's a bit more trendy than what i'm normally attracted to...

for those of you out there who can't stand "fragrant" people like me because you have allergies or what-have-you...sorry, i can't help it, it's an addiction!!! i carry around full size bottles in my purse and even have a little "wiggle" dance that i do when i spray and everyone who knows me mocks and imitates it (in a NICE way, of course) ...what can i say? a spritz for me, a spritz for you, another spritz for me!


My all time favorite perfume is Crystal Noir by Versace...makes me think of...SEX, honestly. i have been wearing this perfume FOREVER and couldn't live without it! there have been rumors of it being discontinued in the US but i would swim over an ocean to get it so, i don't care!


A newer Go To fav of mine is L'IMPERATRICE by D&G...my best description is that it smells like an elegant, floral, sweet banana mash.



Falling In Love by Philosophy...i've started using this scent around Valentine's Day for about 3-4 yrs now and then carry it into summer because it is a very light, airy scent...i also ADORE this lotion which i'm aware alot of people don't care for but it mixes well with my body chemistry and gives me the SOFTEST skin on earth!
Unconditional Love by Philosophy...very similar to Falling In Love but a bit sweeter...i got this for Xmas and hate to say but i've been ignoring it's predecessor and reaching for this first.




Harajuku Lovers "G" & "Love" by Gwen Steffani...not only are these little lovelies great scents but they come in the most adorable packaging EVER!
G reminds me of laying on the beach, sipping on a pina colada...it has a fruity coconut, lime scent which makes it a summer Must Have for me.
Love is a heavier, elegant scent but still remains young and fresh.



i know, i know...i can't be serious, right?!?! Pink With A Splash? i can't help it! there is something about the Fresh and Clean by Victoria's Secret that reminds me of my youth and i can't get enough of it! extra bonus: because it's a cheapie i spray it in my car as an air freshener. plus the lotion is very rich and creamy!



My newest addiction is Parisienne by YSL...GORGEOUS! it has taken the place of my Miss Dior Cherie, CoCo Mademoiselle and Juicy Couture. when i wear it i walk around feeling like Audrey Hepburn, nuff said!


We step out of the car and into the street
You can hear it hit softly, like the patter of little feet

It’s such a magical time, like sunset on the ocean
We’re caught in its spell, and we move in slow motion

I move in close, with my hands on her waist
I take it slow, no rush, no haste

The rain slowly falls and the full moon shines
She slides her arms around my neck, and says “your mine”

The rain picks up and it soaks our hair
But our eyes are focused, we have no cares

I whisper in her ear, “I love you my dear
“You will always be smiling, you have no use for tears”

“I will love you forever, is my vow to you”
“You are my heavenly dove, may it always be true”

She smiles at me, with joy and bliss
My lips meet hers, and in the rain we kiss

The rain itself, dances all around
As I kiss my sweetheart, without a sound

The rain glides through the air and I hold her tight
It’s like the angels are crying, such a beautiful sight

Her tongue touches mine and its ecstasy
A kiss in the rain sets my emotions free

She pulls my lower lip and it takes its toll
My whole body tingles, like I’ve lost control

As the rain falls down I just can’t believe
That I need her to move, to think, to breathe

I take a step back and I look in her eyes
She tells me she loves me and my heart just flies

If you believe perfection simply isn’t real
Kiss your love in the rain, and I promise you’ll feel

Many things in this world can wash away pain
But none of them compare, to kiss in the rain

i'm redecorating and was looking around for some inspiration...i like mixing a classical style with modern pieces and after living for a few years in my boldly painted interiors, i'm loving the look of a softer color for the walls to give everything a light, airy feeling.
