Obsessions of the Week

I decided, per Chassity‘s advice, that I’m only going to post my “obsessions of the week” when I have some serious obsessing to do. And today, I really do, so here they are:

1. The most perfectly gorgeous bag. The material. The color. The style. The ribbon. The gold chain. NOT the price.

2. Gorgeous vanity designed by fellow blogger, Amber

3. Wanting a puppy, desperately. This one in particular. I found the exact one I want and the boyfriend will not allow it. I am very upset. I have already named her Ollie. So come on boyfriend, say yes.

4. Dallas Shaw‘s gorgeous illustrations. Pretty much perfection. And to make it even better… she has a blog!

5. Love these unexpected combinations, especially my Bengal Bazaar mixed in.

I have a cavalier and they are the worlds BEST pups! If your bf says yes, he’ll be happy he did. Nate wants a second one!

And now I am officially obsessed with Dallas’ illustrations!

Aw, I kinda feel like an old mother hen giving advice

I see why you’re obsessing over that pink purse. It’s gorgeous.

That puppy looks adorable! Is it a King Charles Cavalier? I am also in a desperately-wanting-puppy phase, but I want a Cavachon.
As for that pink bag–I will just dream and not ask about the price!

My fiance is of the opinion we don’t need a pup until we move into a house, which I kind of agree with. But, hello!!! I want a dog really bad, so I feel your pain!

Who designed that room? It is fabulous!

Do you know how many times I’ve named a pet before actually adopting it?! It makes the Husband think I have a deep emotional bond and he can’t deny me
