Jo Malone...

Anyone else a huge fan of Jo Malone?


My favorite scent combination is Wild Bluebell. I also like English Pear & Freesia and a few months ago I bought Lemon Tart, which was is Limited Edition scent.

At first I didn't understand the concept of mixing scents, but it works. I thought it was just a way to sell more perfume! In reality it is, but it works!

Do you have a favorite Jo Malone scent combination? If so, what is it?

I'm interested in checking out new combinations!

Shopping finds....

Hopefully you had a fabulous weekend! I did!

Tonight I made a fabulous alcohol concoction. I forgot to pick up Mint, so I couldn't make a Watermelon Mojito! :(

Instead, I mixed some Pink Lemonade, Malibu Rum, Simple Syrup and Watermelon together over ice.....YUMMMM!!!!!  Very tasty, I might add!


Any Mojito fans out there?  Curious, what's your favorite Mojito?

Oh well, tonight we had BBQ chicken. Has anyone tried the Spiced Honey-Citrus BBQ Sauce from Williams-Sonoma? It's pretty pricey in my mind (for BBQ sauce), even on SALE I paid $11.99 for a bottle...LOL!

In any case, this BBQ sauce is AMAZING!!! Not sure if they still have it in stock, if they do you should definitely try it! YUMMMMMM!!!!


Also, over the past 24 hours I went to Talbot's on 4 different occasions, LOL! They had an additional 50% off SALE prices! Needless to say, I stocked up! ;)

I bought 4 pairs of signature twill capri pants, 4 pairs of Twill shorts, 2 3/4 length t-shirts and a blouse.


Of course, when I took the original photo I only showed 3 pairs of shorts. Forgot about the Green pair until I went to put them away, LOL!


 
The Fashion Outlet Mall of Chicago or whatever the name is, opened this weekend! I SO was tempted to make it out there, but didn't want to deal with the crowds! Ummmm, no thanks!

They have lots of great stores.... Tory Burch, Gucci, Prada, Longchamp, Original Penguin, AllSaints, Burberry (opening soon), Calypso St. Barth, and the usual outlet stores. Can't wait to check it out, but I am definitely going to wait! After all, it's not going anywhere and it's not a far drive from our house. LOL!

Oh well, hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
