If something can have an accessory, I feel it is my civil duty as a genuinely superficial person to give it that added extra touch of love.
No, I don't own a bedazzler.
Rhinestones make me vomit.
However, my iPhone is less than a year old & has been through five phone cases.
I just bought a Nook and had to buy it a cover and an adorable reading light...you know, in case I read in the dark (which SSB quickly pointed out....I'm never in the dark.) The light was necessary, though, just in case I find myself in the dark.....JUST in case, people!
I bought my keys small gems (posted in a photo here) just because having one key just didn't justify the cuteness of my new car. Yeah, I went there. That key couldn't be lonely, that's just rude!
So yes, it isn't a problem, so there's no need to recover from it. Here are some other things in the accessory depart that I am lahhh-ving right now...for accessorizing myself & the things around me that--you know--need love, too!
1. This is the cover I picked for my new Nook (and I'm currently reading Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children) -- love anything that looks like a notebook. It was this or a Kate Spade cover...but it was $60 and I just wasn't swinging that when the one I chose was half of that!
2. WHEN (not if) I get the next iPad (SSB's ears are burning somewhere), I will buy this case. I want a case that is more like a Nook cover. I like the sleeves and all that MBMJ & Michael Kors make, but I would much rather have a constant case covering the back, just like I like my iPhone. The patent blue is fierce in my opinion!
3. This watch. Love a dual-tone watch & also love rose gold. I also love that it is NOT a tortoise Michael Kors watch that is literally on everyone's wrists these days! I really must have this. (There goes that so-called "problem" talking again.....)
4. I love having little things here & there in my classroom and on my desk and I love what B&N has to offer in the way of office accessories. How cute are these bookends?! One can never have too many bookends simply because one can never have too many books! (Nerd alert.)
What do YOU love to accessorize? Please fill me in! Obviously I will not buy all of these as reality usually sinks in (or just SSB's voice) and tells me I do not need bookends in multiple amounts or an iPad case when the newest iPad hasn't even been (officially) announced yet..........
..........Fiiiiiiine. Maybe I do have a problem. The first step is admitting it. The second? Feeding it, keeping it ALIIIIVE (cue Frankenstein voice). Screw youuuuu, SSB, leave me and my well-accesorized life alone! (Just kidding, just kidding!!)
Until next time, I'm off to go and look for a new phone case (kidding...sort of)............
Loved this post :) I adore those office trinket things, so cute, I would love those bookends!
ReplyDeleteI may have just purchased a purple Kindle cover, that goes with my purple phone case, that goes with my purple bag... Oh dear and I didn't think I had a problem!
oh my GAWD those birdcage bookends are to die for. I can't stop accessorizing my makeup collection -- I'm currently working on my 3rd storage system this year. I haven't even documented any of them because...I don't want to admit how often I'm like, "OH that's a smart idea, it'll change my life!" I also accessorize my travel beauty kits (for both my purse AND my carryon. Yes, they're different.) to no end. I'm also getting into candles. The number I've accumulated since the beginning of this year (19 days ago) is terrifying.
ReplyDeleteThe Nook case is so cute!
ReplyDeleteOh! What do you think of the book so far? It sounded SO good and the first half was really good, but...I have yet to finish it because it got really weird and complicated to follow, I thought.
I need those bookends! SO cute.
