This morning I awoke to Danielle’s text “be there in 10.” My alarm never went off, and if it did, I obviously didn’t hear it. I’ve never gotten ready so fast in my life. Today was my last Nordie Trend show. WAHHHHH. I’m still in denial. Do you think The Galleria or Northpark Center in Dallas has trend shows? Oh God I hope so. We had a blasty as usual. This year the trend show was in the actual mall. I think the center court. It was MUCHO better. It didn’t feel as cramped. It actually felt as if we were sitting front row at fashion week or something. Fancy. I told Danielle that she must carry on the Trend show tradition and keep going. I’ll be there in spirit…haha.

As soon as the show ended, I met these two cuties, Samantha and Meg. They came right up to me and introduced themselves. Sam and Meg drove up from DE to attend their very first trend show and to meet me. I am so flattered. I made them pinky swear to keep coming to these shows. They are so much fun and the perfect excuse for “girl time.”
hey hey hey!
I was on the air at Q102 for seven years. It’s been almost three years since I left and went to 923NOW. It blows my mind that I sometimes get recognized when I’m out. It’s sort of a mix of people that used to listen to me on the radio, or people that read my blog. Whatever the case may be, I really truly appreciate you so much for following me throughout the years. I’m sending you virtual hugs and kisses. MWAH!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Oh, and of course I will still blog from Dallas. Absolutely.
Sorry for getting off track…
Okay, so after the trend show, we mocked 8 over to the Laura Mercier counter. I was determined to get my hands on the Bare Peach lip gloss. I’m a bitch and bought the last two tubes. Sorry, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, ya know? I was also sold on Lancome’s newest mascara, Hypnose Doll lashes. I like the new wand so clearly that was reason enough to buy a tube.
As Dan and I were walking towards the doors (we were almost outta there, ) what caught my eye but these MUST HAVE UGG BRIENNE booties.
Ahhh Haaaaah!! These boots are exactly what I’ve been looking for. Just because I’m a mom, doesn’t mean I have to wear flats for the rest of my life. Yes, there are certainly days where I miss wearing my 4″ clogs and wedges. I have to be realistic about it though. I can’t tote around my 9 week old in those clunkers. I’m bound to trip and fall. That would definitely not be cool (or safe.) What I love about these Uggs is that the heel is thick and soft. The shoe itself is heavy and feels super sturdy, not to mention they’re ultra comfy. Sold. This is fab news, because now I can wear my long jeans again. Hooray!! These boots should seriously be marketed to moms who don’t want to wear flats for the rest of eternity everywhere. Go me!
Stu’s aunt and cousin arrived at our house shortly after I got home from the trend show. They’re here until tomorrow (Sunday.) We had lunch at Cosi (they had never been,) and dinner at Seasons 52 (big surprise there.) It’s been a long-ass day and now I’m completely $pent.
Going to bed! Hope you’re having a great weekend-
