Lots of Lilly Lovin'


It's official.




Lilly is making individual state prints for all of my VA, FL, MD, NC, SC and GA girls! Originally they were going to pick only five prints, but they chose six! Yippee! Naturally, I am super excited about the Virginia one.
They announced on their Facebook page (and probably elsewhere) that they will start with Murfees and will start selling as soon as they're ready!
I gotta start saving my moula for that!


I also decided to incorporate Lilly into this week's Friday's Fancies!
This week's theme, Flower Power, is perfect timing with all of the spring-like weather we've been having!


Flower Power




When I think Flower Power, I think Lilly! Almost all of my favorite prints incorporate some sort of flower.
The Ricci shift in the bottom right is in a new print called Fresh Cut. I love it!
Here is another one of the newer flowery prints called Dot Dot Hop that I am in love with:




Which is your favorite?
 How do you rock flower power?!


Speaking of Lilly, it's down to the last hour and a half of their time on Rue La La! Click here for an invite and quick, shop!

Cherry on Top Blog Shoppe & LP on Rue La La

Hi friends!

First thing's first. Lilly is on Rue La La today :) Amazing prices!
Here is an invite! Happy spring shopping!


Now, today I bring you an adorable blog shoppe!

Cherry on Top Blog Shoppe

The designer, Melissa - who also blogs over at 20 Going On 80 - just started a blog design business and I'd say she's off to a great start! She offered a freebie signature design and I jumped on that opportunity! Below you will see my new signature :)
 
All of her designs are completely custom - your blog won't look like ANY other blog out there. How awesome is that? She uses beautiful colors, fonts and layouts to make it completely YOU!
You can purchase "the ultimate sundae", have "just a taste" or "build your own sundae" by purchasing blog aspects a la carte!
 
**Through April 31st, she is having a "Sidebar Spring Cleaning" special! Check it out here :)
 
If you're in the need for a blog boost, I would definitely recommend heading over to the Cherry on Top Blog Shoppe!
You can see her portfolio here!

Ten on Tuesday

A late post, I know, but I wanted to link up with Ten on Tuesday!
Share your answers over at Roots and Rings :)


1. How do you feel about April Fool’s Day?
I think it's strange. I don't like being tricked so a whole day where it's okay to trick me? What the heck?

2. Do you like birds?
NO! Or rather, I like them, but hate flocks of them. When they fly overhead of me I freak out...it's gross! I'm okay with having birds as pets (Steven's family has one) but in town they scare me. Seagulls are also terrifying in a whole other category.

3. How often do you wear your hair in a ponytail?
Not very often. Always if I'm working out, but every day it starts down. Sometimes by the end of the day (especially after work) it will end up in a ponytail but I never put it up like that to start the day.

4. Do you believe in love at first sight?
Not love. Attraction/lust/feelings, yes. I just don't know how you can "love" someone without knowing anything about them!

5. What is your favorite appetizer?
Spinach artichoke dip with pita! NOM.

6. What is your favorite brand of heels?
Uhhh, n/a? I hardly ever wear heels, to be honest! I will for formal occasions but since that is somewhat rare, I don't spend a lot of money on heels. I usually get them from a regular store.

7. Are you a picky eater?
Not particularly! I know what foods I like and don't like...the 'likes' outweigh the 'don't likes' for sure. However, I will say that I prefer my foods not to touch...unless it's spaghetti & peas, then I mix it all together.

8. Is there a tv show you like that nobody ever talks about?
The Little Couple. Bill & Jen are so sweet and such a great couple! Also, Secret Millionaire - I think that's what it was called? I watched it online and I cried every episode. Basically, a millionaire goes to a town/business that is struggling and helps them out and then confesses they're a millionaire and hands them a big, honkin' check. Tears.

9. Do you prefer hot tea or cold tea?
Cold!

10. Gayle or Peeta? (If you don’t know how to answer, read The Hunger Games.)
Peeta. However, I will say Liam Hemsworth is way more attractive.



I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday tomorrow!
xoxo,
