20 Things

First, THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH to all those who left me warm and supportive words re: my "go eat something" fiasco. You guys are amazing, your words don't go unnoticed and are very much appreciated. Thank you for understanding and being so wonderful :)
I recently got tagged by the lovely Little Rus at Fashion Titbits and lovely Jennnn at Cup of Teaa! to share 20 Things About Me...
1. What is your favourite item of clothing?

I never bare my shoulders so I love cardis and blazers.

2. What are your biggest obsessions?

Over the years I've amassed quite a collection of shoes and handbags...it really does feel like a collection as 90% of them almost never leave their spot on my shelves.

3. Who inspires you?

Moms. I'll never tire of seeing children look at their moms with such awe and love.

4. Who is your favourite designer and why?

I'd have to meld Karl Lagerfeld, Rudolph Valentino and Zac Posen. And of course throw in Marc Jacob's whimsy. They're amazingly talented and know how to dress a woman.

5. What is your favourite song ever?

It wasn't always this song but S sang it to me at our wedding, it was totally unexpected and he totally ruined my makeup doing so, so I'd have to say "Always" by Atlantic Starr.

6. What is your favourite song right now?

Knock You Down (Keri Hilson feat. Kanye West & Ne-Yo)

7. If you were a sweetie, what would you be?

A RED Gummie Bear! They're so good and squishy :)

8. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet - what words would you use to describe your rainbow?

Kind words, warm hugs, soft kisses, fresh flowers, chocolate, smiles & sunny skies. 7 things that cheer me up after a rough or emotionally stormy day.

9. What are your favorite films?

Miracle on 34th Street, Big Fish, 13 Going on 30, Finding Nemo, Up, The Notebook...

10. Who is your favourite actor?

Her performances may not be deemed Oscar worthy[yet], but I love Lauren Graham. She just seems like soooo much fun. I think if I spent a day with her, I'd surely pee my pants from laughing...at least once.

11. If you could be anywhere in the world, where would you be?

S could really use a vacation, "workaholic" doesn't even begin to describe it. I'd love to just be on a beach...anywhere so long as his computer stays behind...or could be thrown in the water.

12. What are your 3 favorite smells?

I love the smell of home when you've been away, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and S with or without cologne...preferably with, LOL.

13. What are your 3 favorite tastes?

Chocolate, Sushi & Steak.

14. What is your most treasured possession?

Other than irreplaceable photos, my grandmother's wedding ring.

15. What did you always want to be/do when you grew up?

Strangely, I've always wanted to be a dentist. Unfortunately, I don't have a steady hand.

16. If you were an ice-cream what flavour would you be?

Mint Chocolate Chip.
You either love it or hate it ;)

17. If someone made a short film about your life, who would play you?

Minnie Mouse?
We pretty much sound the same I think...

18. What would your perfect afternoon consist of?

PJs + comfy couch + a movie or two + some munchies of course!

19. If you were a flower what would you be?

An orchid or a lily, both of which will forever remind me of my grandmother.

20. Tell me one random thing... be it your favourite line from a song, scene from a movie or quote from a book.....or tell me about something that you love.

I love so many scenes from The Notebook.

Oh and I know Ryan Gosling's uncle.
No, I never asked if he could get me an autograph :)

I do hope that wasn't too much of a *snorefest* for you.
