Bodagetta.. bahhhhh ha.

Toomer's corner in Auburn was demolished pretty much at the end of last year... to look better!  So you may ask, what happened to the OLD Toomer's corner?  Well.... it's for sale.  For $100, you can own a Toomer's brick.  The proceeds go to fund student scholarships, so I guess it's for a good cause.  It just be cool to have a brick from Toomer's corner in like 347 years, and be like "oh it's the brick great-great-great grandma Frannie invested in 347 years ago... we love great-great-great grandma Frannie"... and then they'll come give me a hug because medicine will have kept me alive that long.. and I'll still look good.  Ok, I'm done.

What A Great Idea!

Sometimes, it's hard to come up with creative birthday ideas.  Instead the Jelly of the Month club (Clark Griswold wasn't happy), how about a Year of Seeds ($69.95)?  Red Envelope has a great selection of creative gift ideas for women & men.  A year of seeds keeps on giving allllll year.  That way, every month, the person you give it to HAS to still like you.  You gave them a gift for every month...so basically if they ever get mad at you, you can be like, "No, no no.. I gave you 12 birthday gifts!"  They'll more than likely agree and forgive you.

Leathahhhh.

Leather comes and goes every few years, just like every other style known to man-kind.  Next year, flip flops will be out and everyone will be wearing Keds again... or maybe not.  I like leather/suede for this year.  It just depends on how you wear it.  I saw this little suede jacket from Anthropologie on sale the other day.  They only had extra smalls, so that was a bust.  The website has an abundance of them though.  It would be easy to dress up with a skirt... or dress down with jeans.  It's the Sleevescape Jacket for $129.95 , on sale, originally $248. 

Here's a different style that I've been eyeing for over a year.  It's the Mackage Lamb Leather 'Leane' Jacket ($415), from Bluefly.com. 




Moreover, let's cover one more thing.  If you're anti-leather/vegan/animal rights, that's great. I don't care.  They're not gonna stop making the jackets, so you might as well wear them and look good. Soo good... in your animal skin. 

Here's a baby lamb.
