LOL!! i typed in hermes kelly and guess what popped up!!?? a bunch of kellys, of course! but one stood out from the rest. i had always wanted a red hermes bag...preferrably a birkin with gold hardware, but tonight a vintage rouge VIF courcheval gold hardware kelly caught my eye. OH MY!!! at that same moment, DH's friends were making fun of him for being "p-whipped" by me for spending so much money buying me (in their words) "an overpriced polkadotted pepto bismal colored bag".....they were referring to my fuschia ostrich birkin that i had with me! of course, DH wasn't going to allow them to bash him like that, so he just said "whatever dudes, don't be jealous bc you're not married yet!" so then i said, "yea honey, you show them how it's done! i'm about to hit BUY IT NOW on a bag and you're not even going to flinch!" LOL!!!

so then i hit BUY IT NOW and a few days later, this bag arrived.....

THIS WAS HILARIOUS!!! I love your sense of humor, and the relationship you and your DH have.

PBC, I just went through 81 pages in one sitting, as I was truly mesmerized by your thread. I have never been so enthralled while reading a thread.

You are truly my fashion guru and style icon. I love how you mix and match your higher end pieces with your bargains! That is what true fashion is all about. Your handbags are stunning and your collection is awe-inspiring!

Your home is beyond gorgeous. I love your decor and the unique details in fixtures and the treatments you used.

I am only 22, but I swear after I am done with medical school and have time and money to build a home, I am using your pictures as inspiration. I loved all of your style elements throughout your home. I was truly blown away by your closet and the breathtaking mother of pearl sink. I have never seen such a unique and amazing sink before. Your bathrooms and kitchen are beautiful. That little toy room you had built is simply precious. I am sure your future children will enjoy it for years. Your entire home is fantastic and you are a talented designer. Your home needs to be featured in Architectural Digest. You took your French castle theme and made it remarkable and extraordinary.

I hope you will continue to post more pictures of your home! I absolutely love looking at them and was so inspired today. What is the square footage of your home? I want to see it all in pics HAHA! You should post some pictures of the outside of your home. I imagine it to be as equally exquisite as the inside and is wonderfully landscaped.

Your wedding pictures were beautiful and you made a stunning bride. Your cake looked so lovely with its fine detailed piping. Was it as delicious as it looked?

I lived in LA for a while and could never get enough of Pinkberry and Sprinkles! I have been to the BH store many times and the lines are insane, but so worth it! The red velvet cupcake is my absolute favorite! They sell the mixes at Williams-Sonoma and I actually have used it to make some red velvet cupcakes. They are not as good as the bakery ones, but they were still delicious! Pinkberry fro yo is so unique and I love the fresh fruit toppings. I can probably never get enough of the tart flavor and going to Pinkberry is probably one of parts of LA I miss the most.

Anywhoo, there is my long post in response to your fantastic thread! I can't wait to check in for updates! This is by far my new favorite thread on tPF. I hope you are having a wonderful vacation in Paris and I can't wait to see all the wonderful goodies and hear the delightful stories about the adventures that go with them!

I just have to say I love your closet, home, and style! I love the way how you do not discriminate and buy F21 and Hermes! You are truly my idol...=) and your DH is SOOOO sweet and thoughtful!

ILOVEMYLIFE: you're such a doll as always!!!

185$$ for Loubs?! *ugh so jealous

[gjaneco]

I Love Your Life!

[abilicious]

Oh my PBC! You got me at Hello (err, first post..) Can I give you a hug? You're such a doll. After some 81 pages (I didn't skip a page! OMG!) and maybe total of 4 maybe 5 hours, now I need to let you know how much I enjoy your generosity in sharing your blessings with us. Love everything, from the purses, style, home (especially!), and just the consistent impeccable taste you have. Your loving relationship with your DH and family (plus 2 cute dogs!) and the person that you are -- So Glorious! You will have no idea how much you have inspired me. I hope you'll be blessed with beautiful children just as kind as you are. You deserve it.

If I don't ever meet you in this lifetime, maybe next!

Hey, this feels like its own sub-forum! Cheers darlin!

OK, this is now officialy my favorite thread of the whole PF. Can't wait to see more fantastic pictures. Can't even begin to tell what my favorites are. I love it all! But the mother-of-pearl-sink is my absolute n° 1! So gorgeous and original! And not only do you have superbe taste, you're such a sweetheart too. I adore all the lovely stories about your supersweet DH!
