Heart #107 goes to...Marc by Marc Jacobs Pretty Little Tate Lip-Dot Print Nylon Tote

Heart #107 goes to...Marc by Marc Jacobs Pretty Little Tate Lip-Dot Print Nylon Tote!  During my recent browse through Bloomingdale's I stumbled upon one of my favorite totes (I have the all black print pictured below) in a new Lip-Dot print.  I love the two outside long narrow pockets on either side, all the inside pockets and the magnetic closure.  It's roomy and looks great and sells for $158!  Check out the website for a whole bunch of other prints.  Oh, and the logo lining...love it!

Heart #106 goes to...Via Spiga "Tandy" Espadrilles

Heart #106 goes to...Via Spiga "Tandy" Espadrilles!  I found these really comfortable sandals at Bloomingdale's the other day.  They are originally $175, but with the sales and coupons that I had I got them for $50!  They come in fuchsia, walnut and white.  I can't stress enough how comfortable they are.  I had them on for about 5 hours the same day I bought them.  Love them!

Heart #105 goes to...Skinny Italian by Teresa Giudice

Heart #105 goes to...Skinny Italian by Teresa GiudiceLove, love, love this book.  And that is how Teresa Giudice signed my book this past Tuesday at her book signing at Limoncello Restaurant in Mamaroneck, NY.  She was fashionably late, not too much, but that gave me time to skim through most of the cookbook.  It's filled with color pictures and tons of stories told Teresa style.  She's funny.  And she also sets the record straight on how to pronounce her last name..."It's not Jew-Dice, as Andy Cohen of Bravo says, but more "JUDY-CHAY" said very fast with the emphasis on JUThanks Teresa, because I was pronouncing it wrong and so was everyone I spoke to at the signing.  Now, I can't wait to try out the recipes!
Love, love, love!
Here's a picture of Teresa right before she signed my book, wearing a Jay Godfrey 'Mercer' Liquid Jersey Minidress, which can be found here for $250.



and yes, that's her husband Joe with his back to the picture, right behind her.

Heart #104 goes to...Joby Gorillapod Flexible Tripod

Heart #104 goes to...Joby Gorillapod Flexible Tripod!  I ordered this last week and I love it.  I used it over the weekend at a friend's rehearsal dinner party and I'm glad I had it.  I didn't end up using it as a tripod, but as an extension to the camera that I was holding up in the air to get a better view of the speeches being given.  I used mine with my Flip Mino HD camera.  There are a few to choose from, I ordered the Gorillapod Magnetic.  It holds up to 11.5oz.  It sells for $24.95.  This is a must have!

Heart #103 goes to...Tea Carousel from Get Organized!

Heart #103 goes to...Tea Carousel from Get Organized!  Since I have stopped drinking coffee I drink a lot of tea.  I have boxes and boxes of different teas in my cabinet and I think this would keep it a little neater.  It fits 60 tea bags and only costs $2.99 (was $14.99).  I might get two because I really think it will give me more space.
