I usually don’t agree with the ‘lists’ that they come up with, but I have to say that I like, and agree with, this one!<br /><br />I’m 8 for 10.... what about you??<br /><br />1. <strong>Pumps</strong>. Whether they have pointy, round, or square toes, these classic heels look smart at work and sexy at night. Always have a black pair. </span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#ff0000;"><br />2. <strong>Flats</strong>. Simple ballet slippers or skimmers are a more comfortable answer to the all-purpose pump. They’re great for when you’re on the go.<br /><br />3. <strong>Diamonds</strong>. Rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets: No matter what form they come in, these sparkly stones will always shine — even if you are wearing jeans and a T-shirt.<br /><br />4. <strong>Pearls</strong>. A classic, ladylike staple, these lustrous beads, as tidy little earrings or a single or multistrand necklace, always add polish and elegance to your outfit.<br /><br />5. <strong>A structured bag</strong>. In a medium size, a sturdy, top-handle leather bag will serve you well every day.<br /><br />6. <strong>A clutch</strong>. For evening, it’s essential. A slim, sleek little bag that fits just the necessities is the piece to carry at night.<br /><br />7. <strong>A belt</strong>. This piece can turn an ensemble from sloppy to sleek in an instant. It’s a good idea to have multiple waist cinchers — thin, medium, and wide — in your closet.<br /><br />8. <strong>A cocktail ring</strong>. Give your evening style a glam punch with a big-stoned bauble. Try bold, colorful stones for added effect.<br /><br />9. <strong>A cuff</strong>. A thick bracelet in gold, silver, or enamel is a timeless accent and works day or night.<br /><br />10. <strong>A metal watch</strong>. A high-quality, classic timepiece, like a tank or a bracelet style — whether gold or stainless steel — will last you a lifetime.<br /><br /></span>Emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07915855533929027754noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474071206032421549.post-8049803311977399432010-01-21T19:32:00.000-08:002010-01-21T19:35:46.185-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__iod_vEcEIA/S1kclHEKhMI/AAAAAAAAAsE/Yx-9GmTnpJw/s1600-h/CIMG6521.JPG"><img style="display:block;

The diamond is the real thing, but there were some problems with the band, so this is just a temporary one. Matt just wanted to propose on the 19th, and I'm leaving on Friday, so the real thing will be finished when I get back. I promise to post pictures as soon as we get it! So just ignore the weird band for now!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__iod_vEcEIA/ShQ4AcmBXUI/AAAAAAAAAls/56zXV1gnQeQ/s1600-h/ring.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__iod_vEcEIA/ShQ4AcmBXUI/AAAAAAAAAls/56zXV1gnQeQ/s400/ring.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337953038667701570" border="0" /></a><br />The proposal story is nothing super exciting. It was sweet, simple, and meaningful - just like I've always wanted!! So when Matt came over to my place yesterday afternoon, I was watching Garden State [<a href="http://ekw9894.blogspot.com/2009/05/completly-unrelated.html">remember this post!</a> haha] - which is our favorite movie, for many reasons. I think we both see certain characteristics about ourselves and each other in the main characters. Honestly - I don't remember exactly how it happened, but it was at the end when it's playing one of our favorite songs, and we started talking. We were just sitting on my living room floor, and all the sudden, he got up on his knees and started reaching into his pocket. In my mind, I was thinking "Holy crap - is he really going to propose right now?!?!". And he DID!! He said all sorts of sweet and wonderful things, and then asked if I would marry him. And of course I said YES!!! Afterwards, he took me to dinner at my favorite place ever - Noodles & Co. On the way there, we got pulled over for Matt not wearing his seatbelt, but once we told the officer that he had just barley proposed and I flashed him my ring, he let us off with just a warning!
