Finally the Hampster Box is in the Christmas Spirit...

I am a Christmas season fanatic... so it's kind of outrageous that I JUST put up my tree and decorations.  {My favorite song in the world, not just Christmas song, is Mariah Carey "All I Want For Christmas is You"... really, ask my friends.} This is my first REAL tree I've ever had by myself.  My parents just started getting real tree's since my oldest sister was allergic to them and the last few years I have used a fake tree.  Guess what color my ornaments are? Silver, white, and pink! Mixed in with a few glittery pink ones too... shocking huh?  Here are some pictures of the little bit of other decorating I've been doing tonight as well.  All while watching Love Actually in the background... duh!

 And the grand finale!! {Oh how I wish you could see the little owl that is my tree topper....}



Merry Christmas everyone!!! I hope you love my wonderful tree as much as I do!! I am sitting as close to it as I can just keep gazing.  I can't believe Christmas is right around the corner... if we are being honest with each other {which I think we should} I have done ZERO Christmas shopping.  Oops! Better get to it...

Love for Lauren



I am sure by now most you have heard about the horrific accident that happened last weekend to fashion editor, Dallasite, and friend Lauren Scruggs.  If you have not heard, go here to read the story. For everyone out there that is interested in helping please go to The Lauren Scruggs Hope Fund. The money raised will go to paying for her medical bills.



I have had the privilege of meeting Lauren a couple times through the Dallas blogging world and am incredibly grateful for it. Her and the other girls have been nothing but welcoming, helpful, and sweet every single time.  If you haven't seen Laurens newest venture Lolo Magazine then you should.

For those of you that will be in the Dallas area this weekend I ask you to come to Shops at Legacy in Plano, more specifically Gameday Cloth, on Saturday at 4pm.  There will be a rally and we need as many people as possible for KTXA to run the story on their 6pm news. They will tell everyone watching where to donate so this could help an enormous amount.  There will also be stores participating by donating a portion of their sales on Saturday to the fund.  We are still trying to get as many stores as possible but as of right now the stores you can shop at are; Gameday Cloth {both locations; Mockingbird Station and Shops at Legacy}, Spa Habitat, Drybar, and Ella Bleu. Most of these stores will also have a donation can on the counter so you don't even have to feel obligated to buy anything {although these are amazing places so you won't have a problem finding something}. 



If you are a store that would like to participate please email either me at MollyMeetz@gmail.com or Jana at Jana@gamedaycloth.com.  If you are a blog that would like to do a post about this you can also email us for the full size pictures to use {or PLEASE send me a copy of the post, I would love to pass along on twitter/facebook}.  Of course feel free to contact us for general inquiries as well.

Thank you all in advance for your care and help!

Christmas list? Yep. Top of the list is 1 and 3.. you remember 3 from my Nordstrom Annual Sale list. It's still there. Ugh....

Happy Friday!! :: Hoot Hoot!

Good morning everyone!!  As I mentioned yesterday I am SO ready for the weekend! Mine is packed full with; girls night out tonight, last regular season KState football game Saturday, followed by putting up my Christmas tree, followed by a fabulous Christmas party, and then watching Southern Boy run his first marathon Sunday morning! I could not be more excited for the weekends festivities and in my excitement did not get a real post ready.  However, I was flipping through the pages of the new Anthropologie catalog this morning and found this guy...


He instantly made me smile so big I had to share him with you!!! He's a cookie jar and just couldn't be any cuter if he tried... I hope he has the same effect on your day that he did on mine!

Don't forget tomorrow my gift guide will be on Modern-Eve for the 12 Days of Christmas!! {Don't worry... I will remind you :)}.  Until then... have a WONDERFUL day!

xoxo,
Molly

Beauty Obsession :: Chanel

I went with my sister the other day to Neiman Marcus to get some shoes for a big Christmas party this Saturday night.  After we found the perfect nude heel for her gold sequin dress we headed to the makeup counters.  She basically gave the lady at the Chanel counter free reign since she has not really bought real makeup for while.  So she started from the beginning.  Everything went well but once my sister told her the dress was gold she used something that finally, with it's tiny little stroke made such a big difference!


She swiped this magic gold eyeliner just on the inside corners of the eyes and it instantly brightened her eyes and made them look just a bit more dramatic. She literally got the last one of these at Neiman Marcus in Northpark so if you're a Dallasite try somewhere else, maybe downtown or just buy online to avoid the stress of running all over town to find it.  Chanel.com still has some! If $32 was in my budget for a gold eyeliner I would have already bought it! I will just have to borrow hers for the party Saturday night instead.

Is anyone else as excited for the weekend as I am?!

Molly
