Wednesday, December 9, 2009

Wednesday became my favorite day for a few reasons. First, it was the day that Project Runway was on (before the switch to Lifetime), and LOST (January 2010!!! WOO!), then I got interested in American comic books and it became NEW COMIC BOOK DAY! In general, Wednesday has always been a day that I look forward to, so I decided to start a Neighborhood Stories tradition by blogging about things that I'm IN LOVE WITH on Wednesdays! I might even share my comic purchases with you!
Let's begin...

Puts an alluring shadow over the windows to the soul...

Faux Eyelashes. I recently decided that I am going to wear fake eyelashes whenever I leave the house. Not only are they glamorous and make you feel pretty, but they instantly draw attention to your eyes. CAN'T GET ENOUGH.

Fresh and tangy, varieties with chopped cabbage get my vote.
Pico de Gallo. This is one of those foods that I actually CRAVE on a semi-regular basis. It's also one of the foods I don't think I would mind eating EVERY SINGLE DAY. So good. I had some last night and Phi and I are already planning a fish taco party for tomorrow. Guess what I'm bringing?

Dear Asia: Why do you hate me?
These Boots. I'm aware I'm a little late jumping on this bootie train, but I have good reason. THESE are the booties I want. And guess what? I CAN'T HAVE THEM! T_T They're all from YesStyle.com, and they're all made by Korean manufacturers that think a size 9 is TOO BIG, and therefore only make up to a US size 8. The tragedy of this is compounded by the fact that I have NO MONEY. WHEN'S GON' BE MY TIME!?!

Pastels at Rachel Roy, Pre-Fall 2010
Hope for Fall 2010. Now, I know that Pre-Fall collections aren't necessarily indicative of what the designer has planned for Fall/Winter, BUT I'm hoping for just a little hint. Don't get me wrong, there were a lot of stellar Fall '09 collections, but the color palette was decidedly dismal. CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR BRIGHTER COLORS, FALL 2010!!!

Supernatch!
Supernatural. Specifically: Dean Winchester. Ok before anyone decides to ruin anything about Season 5 for me, DON'T. I just finished Season 4 on DVD and I'm waiting very, very impatiently for Season 5 to be released on DVD as well. But HOLY CRAP. My friend Jenn introduced me to this show like a week before I left California, and a steadfast addiction was born. Thinking about Dean makes my eyes water with sheer delight. *drools* I've been trying to get everyone I know to watch it, but I haven't been very successful so far. I'M TELLING YOU, THIS SHOW. SO GOOD.
That's all I've been obsessing over this Wednesday, thanks for reading!
