I discovered Hipstamatic.
I bought new shoes.
I co-hosted a bridal shower.
I got another year older.
My Brother got married!
I got to meet four wonderful Connecticut Bloggers, Amber, Nnenna, Courtney and Megan.
I discovered Instagram!
Tropical storm Irene brought flooding, downed trees and left me without power for a week!
I met Alex in New York and went to Central Park for the first time.
I bought a new wide angle lens and took it out for a spin.
I zipped around Washington D.C. on a Segway.
And I went back to NYC for a Be the Buyer Event at TJ Maxx!
November had some pretty nice sunsets and (aside from that one small nor'easter) stayed warm enough to not wear tights the whole month.
I got a new camera!
And that's a wrap!
I hope you all have a happy and safe New Years Eve!
I will probably be on my couch watching Midnight in Pairs and nodding off before midnight, becuase I'm practically 26 86 years old, and that's how I roll.
Girl that post must have taken you 4ever! Great recap. Your blog has been amazing this year, sorry I haven't commented as much but I do still read. Have a safe and happy couch New Years. :)

ReplyDeleteI love the cut-out effect that you got going on with the outfit photos! It's like a magazine spread. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI love how you presented your year in review- the wide angle lens shot is incredible! I watched "Midnight in Paris" a couple of days ago and just loved it- I hope you did too! Happy New year (if it's any consolation, I wanted to spend NYE doing just what you had planned!)
