Good morning, loves! And happy December to you all! Thank you so much for the well wishes yesterday. I stayed home from work and rested up and I can happily report that I'm feeling much better. And just in time for the holiday rush to begin!
I'm so looking forward to all this season has to offer. The shopping, the shimmer & shine, the parties, the annual xmas cookie bake off, the look of pretty presents around the tree, and the overall festive holiday cheer. And now that the Rockefeller tree is lit up, the season has officially began! Can't wait to walk on over to check it out later on today.
Oh and before I go I wanted to share a funny little snippet. One day last month I ran out of work in a panic because J was being rushed to the ER with some pain, which we later found out was a cyst.
On my mad dash to find a taxi a woman stopped me on the street to see if I wanted to try out a lip plumper and be interviewed for a morning talk show. Normally I would have said no because I was in a rush and totally out of my mind with worry but the fact that she said lip plumper intrigued me. I developed the Lip Fusion lip plumper years ago and wouldn't you know it, that's the product she handed me to test! I couldn't say no. I mean what are the chances, right?
Well here is that interview...If you go to 3:06 of the tape you'll find me looking pretty intense in all my worry. But I have to say that my testimony is 100% true. The product definitely does work. I swear I'm not being biased. :)
Hope you all have a wonderful day and a wonderful December ahead :)
xoxo

Dawn, your famous! Fun hearing your voice. Only you, (or I), would stop to talk about cosmetics in the middle of an emergency. Some things can't be helped!! xo
Too funny Dawn, I love the story! So glad you are feeling much better lovely xx

It's so nice to hear your voice, Dawn. You made me laugh, stopping to talk about cosmetics in a moment like that, the kind of thing that would happen in a scene in Seinfeld. :) Happy December! xo
Good to hear you're feeling better but don't forget that you still have to take it easy. What a funny coincidence. You did look like you had other things on your mind but it was nice of you to still stop. Fab sunglasses!
Dawn, WHAT ARE THE CHANCES IS RIGHT!!!!

Hugs! and have a pretty day!

You developed the lip pumper? What?! And did you have cysts? Are they gone?
Oh that's just such a funny coincidence! I might have to try that one out, I've never really used plumpers before.
I'm glad you're feeling better now!

Totally right, that *is* a funny story! I love that you stopped for an interview on the way to the ER! Classic! But really, what are the chances of them stopping *you* in NYC??? (c:

loving the sparklies :) Oh and such a funny story :)
What a funny story! Little bright spot in an otherwise stressful time :)
Wow you developed the lip plumper? That is so cool! I was probably the first person who ever bought one - I remember when they first came out at Fred Segal and no one else had them! Anyway, glad you are feeling better and I think that lady was an angel sent to remind you how fab you are!

Pardon me? You developed the lip fusion?? Please tell me more!
That's hilarious! Did you tell her you developed it? I LOVED that stuff, but it kind of hurt.
Sweet, funny story and shows coincidences can happen.
happy december to you :)
I adore these photos...I love the look of shimmering whites and pastels for the holidays, so festive. How ironic that you'd be stopped to review a product you worked on!
That is a funny story...I'm so not ready for christmas though have started the countdown and in my minds eye am visualizing the day! Fingers crossed. Glad to hear you're feeling better.

DAWN, I loved watching the video, seeing and hearing your voice you little beauty was so fun.. How serendipitous and wonderful that you sampled your own product on the streets of NY. You looked fabulous and your sunglasses so chic...Mrs. Glamour do. Thank you for dropping by Dawn, loved hearing from you. Dawn Suitcase Vignettes xo
It is times like this we wonder if everything is predestined in some way! Loving these images you found, especially the gray chair with white gifts wrapped up so pretty . . .
Great story/interview! :)
