Thanksgiving Holidays & Victoria’s Secret Addiction
Monday November 29, 2010
Guten Abend~~ :moon: :)
It feels so strange when I go offline. :;_;: Like my world stops. :facepalmcry: Well, not that dramatic, but you know, I feel like there’s this gap in time I miss out on. That sounds pathetic, let’s carry on…
So 4 turkey dinners later here I am. :smallcry: Settling back into work and still unpacking. :madmark: Hit up Florida then Mississippi. Postcards all sent! :bigheart:
Did some shopping including finally snagging a GPS with traffic updates. My current one is about, hum, 4 years old, if not 5! :smallcry: And it didn’t do traffic which is just… tragic with living in DC. :dizzy: So YAY LIFETIME TRAFFIC NOW! :rainbowtwinkle: It’s all spiffy and new and I got to play with it driving back from Mississippi :kyaaface:
SO SHOPPING! :rose2: I stopped by the Victoria’s Secret Outlet store while there! Then later on my trip I went to VS again for a sale… THEN AGAIN for another sale!
I’m officially unhinged in my addiction to their fragrance line… :rubeyes:
I blame Japan, the magazines, and my friend for causing this “sickness”
I want to smell like flowers & fruits when I walk by~
Momo commented previously that I seem like I “would be one of those girls that smells REALLY good XD” Haaaahahaha omg BEST COMPLIMENT because I really WANT to be THAT girl!!! :rose2:
I have been told I smell good.. it’s an unexpected/weird compliment than I’m never prepared for though. :;_;:
I just.. when girls pass me on the train & the scent of sweet perfume follows close behind them I feel so envious! :supercry: I want/hope to be like that too! (not in an obnoxious way though, lulz, not over-powering, no, no) :iiface:
I actually really already love their SO SEXY hair product lines especially for volume.
Lost in Fantasy is my new favorite scent!!! First ever favorite scent was Love Spell, then Delicate Petals, and now Lost in Fantasy! It’s sweet passionfruit, wild Brazilian orchid and warm musk! :bow:
A flier advertising their Fashion Show that airs tomorrow! (Tuesday)
:kissyheart:I bought the same Limited Edition Holiday Scent (Naughty & Nice) too because this one’s a gift for a friend :good:
The lotion in the Naughty & Nice scent is so pretty! It’s a glitter lotion but instead of the typical silver it has the sort of red, incandescent glitter.
Betsey Johnson! Went to this outlet too and got some cute socks :rose3: :star:
I also picked up a few new accessories. :kissyfaceheart: most are from Forever21 except the multi-colored metal necklace + earring set! I got those on sale at a boutique in Sarasota called Persnickity Cat. I almost always go there for gifts & cards. It’s an entire cat-themed shopped plus more~ *calling all crazy cat ladies!* There’s a big ole kitty there named Harry who hangs around and you can pet him and there’s a drawing table where kids draw him and post their art on the wall. IT’S. SO. CUTE! He was even hanging out there when I went, waiting for kids to come & draw him *d’aaaaaaw*
Mike had his birthday over Thanksgiving too so we found a bunch of “presents” at the Calvin Klein outlet store. But it wasn’t only Mike’s birthday~ it was our 10 year “dating” anniversary! :ladeeda: But after you get married the dating number seems less significant. Well, I guess it’s more of a “togetherness” number. No breaking up & making up, just 10 straight years of putting up with each others bullshit :D
Also did some online shopping on Black Friday and ordered something for Mike’s Xmas gift from Sephora and got this big-ass tote bag that looks like a Sephora shopping bag!! OK, I know, it’s stupid & boring :;_;: but there’s something I got all grabby-hands about having a permanent Sephora Shopping Bag to use! And I freaking love it! I used a hairdryer to get the creases out of it (thanks to everyone who helped me on twitter with that!)
Also, also, I got in a Yesstyle Sweater right before I left on my trip! Perfect timing! :blushingcute: It’s a open-knit type sweater so it’s med-light and was great for “southern” winter weather. :ohyeslovely: It’s incredibly soft and I just… I dunno, I LOVE IT. :twinklepink: I want to live in it nonstop! :supercry:
:mooon: Sweater: Yesstyle
:mooon: Pants: H&M
:mooon: Red Camisole: Forever21
:mooon: Boots: Shimamura
:mooon: Necklace: Forever21:laughingheart: Oh yeah, I chopped off like 6 inches worth of hair this week too! :orooro: Haahaa~ :kissyheart: more on that later~~~~
Oh, does the song “I want the World to Stop” remind anyone else of BOC’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper?” I looooove it. Can’t stop looping it in my ears :) reminds me of old stuff my Mom & I would listen to~

-
I was mentioned!!! :D Your little bob is adorable XD
-
nice love those boots!
i think i need some pointers on buying make up or i’ll just ask the sephora lady next time haha -
WHOA SUDDEN HAIR CHANGE!!! lol~ i saw the photo and thought ‘omg did she…? no it’s probably just a ‘fake bob’ or something…’ but you did! so cute~~
you have a HUGE scent collection hahaha i’m allergic to most flowery scents so i cannot ever be one of those ‘nice smelling girls’ T T though i do love it when someone smells nice and they sit next to meeee~
-
Ah!! I love your hair! It’s a cute bob that suits you. :) My hair is about the same length but I want to grow it out. I also love your VS haul…seems so flowery!
-
Oh, and thanks for the postcard!! ;)
-
-
omg you cut your hair!!!!! looks cute though, it’s just a little surprising! Hehe. Glad that you had so many new purchases. I didn’t buy anything over thanksgiving… i know this sounds crazy… but I just have to save $ on something more important at this point. Anyways, glad that you’re back on your blog! I missed you:)
-
Wow! Short hair suits you so well too~ I’m so jealous, I never have the guts to chop off my hair~ XD
I’ve always had long hair since… I grew out my hair at age 5? LOL
And *___* at your collection of fragrances! I so understand what you mean! When girls walk past me and there’s this lingering fragrant non-overpowering smell behind them I feel :) :) :)
OH OH and congrats on the 10 year mark! ^___^ -
Omg, I totally know what you mean about those girls that walk by and they smell so lovely!! I always wanted to be that girl too. xD Really cute new sweater, btw!! ♥
-
I feel like I haven’t talked to you in aagess :(
Your hair!! :D More pics pleaseee~~
and noone is stinky when Jenny’s around!
-
Oh oh and congrats on the 10 years and happy birthday to Mike!!
I pressed “add comment” too quickly DX (got too hyper :()

““I want the World to Stop” remind anyone else of BOC’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper?”” OMG IT DOOOOES…from like the first introduction of the guitar, its instant gratification! haha, but not like a “this song is a rip! or too similar baaalgh!”
anyways, I’ve always wanted to be a nice smelling woman, I always felt fond of the aristocratic world my mom would design for as a kid, hugging all those pearl clad women wearing trench coats and french tipped nails. I love love love coco madmoiselle and burberry!! NEED NEED NEED, its so expensive and chanel NEVER GOES ON SALE, and they do it on purpose, it makes u want it more. I makes you know that some girl on jr high wont buy it on her date with her 2 day bf and drown herself in it. It has a certain element of perstige, but thats just me in my fantasy world..
and excuse my language when i say HOLY SHIT YOUR HAIR, now this is NOT me being upset this is like WHOA let me slow clap for this right here…this is me slow clapping, i remember all those faux bobs, and now Jenny *sniff* you finally *sniff sniff* you did it!! and you look sooooooo cute! hee hee it suits u like the way short hair always does…
now when will you pixie it again hmmm?
-
I am in love with those Betsey tights! I’ve been meaning to make a trip to the Betsey outlet here in California. You look lovely in the last photo. Your hair is fab!
-
Your new hair cut is soo cute ^^..
-
Your hair looks super cute, and I love love that sweater on you :)
I love VS smells too, my favorite one is the acai berry one :PThanksgiving totally fattened me up and now I need to do some serious exersizes :(
Glad you had a good time! :D -
So many nice products! I’ve been using the same old perfume I’ve used since in junior high- Anna Sui Dream. Love your outfit too btw! Cute!
-
JENNY YOU LOOK FABULOUSSS!!! OMG! ♥ /capslock
But seriously! I remember you mentioning you might get a bob after Thanksgiving & I thought it would suit you perfectly, but you really rock that hairstyle! It looks so retro & cute on you! ♥ /exclamation points
Love all your new purchases & omggg the Sephora bag ♥___♥ I got the member email about it on Black Friday but unfortunately I was pretty much broke by then & didn’t feel like making the 45 min trek to our nearest Sephora store, haha *fail*
& you know where I’ll be tonight, haha~! ;Dyy -
First off: Harry is so cute! He could be Mouse’s brother! XD
Your hair is super cute!!
My obsession right now is Bath & Body Works. I hope they stop sending me coupons soon so I can end the obsession! XD
I did see the $15 lotion pack at Fair Oaks the other day. I might have to copy you & get it ;) I LOVE VS; my biggest problem is they rarely (if ever!) have my bra size! Every time I buy online, they send misshapen crap that I can’t return :(10 years WOW! Congrats on that! ^_^
-
love your hair and your outfit!
you always have the perfect bangs -
i understand the smelling good thing because i always wanted to be that girl too. no matter where i go or what im doing i always spray on perfume !! i mean.. who wants to b stinky xD
& the new hair is super cute! MOAR PIX PLZ :D! it must b a lot easier to manage too~~
-
oops i posted this >__>
-
-
You look too cute, darlin’!
Yay 10 years! You need to stay excited about your dating life! And I’m an expert because I’ve been married OVER A WHOLE MONTH. So, you know. XD
The bob is hot! I need a cut, my hair is so heavy and long! Like carrying around a damp towel! LOL
-
oh God I always wondering how those girls are doing it that they smell so intensive and beautiful! I think that I will never manage to be one of them BUT u Jenny suits them perfectly! I’m sure your smell is gorgeous *.*
and cute bob!
-
First up: four turkey dinners??? You done well! I’d love to have four meals cooked for me hehe. That’s the great thing about visiting family, isn’t it? Lots of food yum :)
That’s so great you and Mike have been together 10 years. I think it’s nice to remember the date when you first got together. Although, yeah, I agree, the marriage one does sort of mean more to everyone else ;)
I love all these animal-themed stores you keep finding! They sound like a great idea. Wonder if I could loan out my Sweepie to one… ;)
-
you look so cuuuteeeeee ahhhhh i can’t help myself from scrolling up and admiring you hahahaha~
10 years! WOW! that is quite a feat what with today’s youngsters breakin’ up and makin’ up forever and ever. congrats you guys!! ♥
lol you do look like one of those girls that smell nice all the time.. like fresh roses *_*
-
I LOVE that you are addicted to VS, just like me!! never stop hauling girl!!! I totally relate to wanting to be one of those fruity smelling gals that walk by you. Its soooo pleasant and just makes me curious about them. I wonder why we are fascinated by this, since a lot of my friends could care less about smelling like a VS fruit bomb…. hmmmm. Although I do hate a girl who smells TOO strongly of something (usually perfume) and it gets all up in your mouth and shit. Just gross. Love love love that yesstyle sweater! I know exactly what you mean about the perfect weight knit. It just makes life so much easier: not too hot and not too cold. Very impressed that you and Mike have been together for 10 years!! There really ought to be more recognition for individuals in successful relationships because that is HARD WORK. Wow this a megalong comment…sorry about that hahah.
-
Wonderful stuff~
I wish I had a little extra cash for shopping, too, but I can wait until Christmas :)
Your new haircut is adorable! It’s actually almost the same one I got as well. *still haven’t posted a picture …lols* -
I’m also soooo in love with VS’s beauty products – especially the scents!~ The best part is they’re fairly affordable and the packaging is nice~~ I love you sweater~! Love yesstyle – can’t wait to make my next order too! =D
-
i got a perfume addiction as well which drives the bf nuts as sometimes i over do it with too much body lotions & perfume – but i absolutely love it when i get compliments at work like “we knew you were here because you left a trail of vanilla perfume in the corridor =D” *happiness* – i MUST check out the VS lines :D i’ll shop my heart out in london next month i swear!
-
-
Jenny!! We are sporting the same hairstyle! The only difference is that my bangs are much shorter! Not that I want! HA! Maybe I will do a post on my new hair? You think? I haven’t been blogging! X(
Anyhow, you look KAWAII~Lost in Fantasy ’smells’ nice! I love warm scent! But sometimes it is overpowering in humid countries like where I am at.
-
I´m your new follower :D!
I´ve just watched the victoria secret fashion show, it was so pretty with all those wings :D
cute hairdo by the way hihi :D -
-
i want your shoes~
also Belle & Sebastian are love~ -
I feel the same if Im offline too long too hehehe
Ahh you got the Chinatsu Popsister! Do want!
and the code is lovely! I saw it on your Tumblr and was awaiting the blog XD -
We don’t have a Victoria Secret here in my country, unfortunately. Those fragrances look very interesting.
May I just spazz about your Betsey Johnson socks though?! OH MY GOD THEY’RE SO CUTE. I don’t think we have that store here either. Damn you USA, you have such cool stores!! (Second on the list next to Japan haha.) Europe is so boring haha, you can get nice things here sure but I wish there was even more variation haha. Ah, I was really happy when Forever 21 announced their opening of a store here in the Netherlands. (Idk I think F21 is cool lol) XD-
I just remembered that I comment a lot with “agh we don’t have that store here!” sorry if I fall into repetition hahaha.

-
this reminds me, i need to get myself a good winter scent!! agree with the missy on top, canada needs more stores too (a.k.a. VS). time to drive down to the states for christmas shoppingggggggg!!
-
So many wonderful goodies! I love looking at your outfits Jen, your look has really evolved over the years.
I am going shopping today!!! :DI haven’t commented here for a while b/c it never worked… I hope it works today *fingers crossed*
-
soooooooooooooo cuuuuuute! i LOVE your new haircut!
-
I love Victoria Secret!!!! the only thing that gets to me is that weight fluctuates, so the bras fit differently each time your weight goes up or down!
Did you watch the Victoria Secret Fashion Show?!?!? I thought it was great, but not the best from previous years.. :(
-
I have to agree with that comment! I really want to be the kind of girl who smells good as well, but it feels like such a pathetic “goal” ^__^”
I love your blog, just started reading it :) Curious though, how do I do to follow/subscribe? :o
-
That cat store sounds amazing! I wish that was closer to… me. It sounds so cute! :D
I love the way VS smells. It’s such a pretty store, but I have a hard time going in there (I feel like all the thin girls… stare at me o.O) Do you get the matching sets? Like the lotion and the body sprays match? It’s always neat when a light pleasant scent lingers with girls, as long as though don’t bathe in it! Haha!
-
Hehehe – a SMELLS GOOD GIRL – that sounds like a fantastic aim!
I too am really into the Victoria’s secrets mists – but they’re really rare in Australia – we bought ours when we visited Japan – so we added Sweet Daydream to our collection (Apple, Raspberry and Vanilla!) – it’s makes one smell incredibly tasty!Ohh, did you see the hair perfumes in Japan? I managed to sneak one home with me – so that my hair is super wiffy XD
-
I’m curious to try VS fragrances. I’m always tempted to buy some because of the cute packaging but I’m worry that the scent will only linger around for 10 minutes or so like Bath and Body Works Fragrance Mist, from what I remember a while ago. How long does VS fragrances usually last?
And the Betsey Johnson socks are cute. My local TJ Maxx sells them for like $10 but I never brought them. Sadly I’m cursed with thick legs :P Also your outfit and hair are so cute. -
Victoria’s Secret Outlet!!!!!! OMG, I never crossed my mind that there would be one! AHHHH now I’m super jealous since there are none nearby.
Haha, I agree. I feel like you would be someone who would smell so good since you take such great care of yourself.
AHHH I totally missed out on the free tote at Sephora! I didn’t know they were doing that. And I bought over $25. All I got was a free gift that included eyeliner and a 2-day trial of Clinique, which is nothing compared to the nice tote.
-
Your hair looks absolutely lovely. And that sweater from Yesstyle is so cute.
-
That Sephore tote bag looks so awesome! It’s not like one of those cheap tote bag made of cheap materials so it looks good to be used as big handbag for a casual outing I guess? :)
Besides that, I just realize that we have the same thoughts about girls who smell good. hahah
Anddd. OMG. DID U CUT YOUR HAIR? 0_0
-
it does feel like inet just went on without me … LIKE HOW YOU HAVE THE WORLD’S CUTEST HAIR CUT AND I MISSED IT.
-
OMG, you cut your hair! It looks very lovely on you *-*
