You too @ksuromax
Thank you

 

[Miss_Dawn]

Mr Dawn gave me one Valentine’s present on the day itself as well as my Valentine’s box at the spa on the preceding weekend. He always takes Valentines very seriously

He said he would have given it to me earlier but it didn’t arrive in time. Apparently there’s a shortage and it took a while for this SLG to be ordered in. A LV cosmetic pouch to add to the DE SLG collection he gave me for my promotion He picked this himself as well. Well done Mr Dawn

I don’t think it will fit much of my makeup though

Also for @Kendie26, I’ve taken a picture of the Chanel pump heels that live in my office. I brought them home especially to photograph them that's how much I love my TPF friends

This was my first Chanel fashion item (besides glasses, makeup, fragrance etc.) and it was a complete surprise for a wedding anniversary from Mr Dawn some years ago. They’re very well-loved and worn very frequently for the past 6 months while I've been trying to keep up my confidence around work with a spot of power dressing

Well done indeed Mr Dawn. Congrats on this lovely piece Miss Dawn — I love this. Yes, there is indeed a crazy shortage of canvas bags and SLGs (you would think LV is giving them away, lol).

I also love those pumps (again good job Mr Dawn — you are the best) — so classy and elegant. Thanks for bringing them home to share with us (they are almost too pretty to wear only at work to be seen by limited number of people).

LOVE!!On my screen they look to be navy/black combo -yes? If so, I totally LOVE Navy & black togetherNo doubt you have an extra “spring in your step” along w/ perfect hair when you’re wearing these babies!

Thank you sweetie Iamminda
I have had these shoes for 5 years, and I've been worried about wearing them out, but I've become less precious about using them, and I do really love them. Thanks also for the compliments on my cosmetic pouch. I can't wait to organise one of my tote bags with all my DE accessories inside one of these days. Maybe my Pinky Pie

Yes, navy and black.
The blue looks less dark in real life. Indeed, I love wearing them. I feel all "power dressed" so it gives me confidence

Lots of love to you both

It's been a long week and I'm absolutely exhausted. I need to do some more work this weekend but we took a break today. Mr Dawn says I'm working too hard so as a fun little treat he bought me "procrastination pens" with funny slogans:
- But First...A Nap
- Deadline, shmeadline
- Later, I promise
- Tomorrow is practically today...

I'm very strait laced, I wear high heels, I am driven and efficient, I carry montblanc pens and leather agendas in the office... It seems hilarious that I'd carry a pen into a serious client meeting with a slogan "deadline shmeadline". I love the idea

Also a golden Leuchtturm 1917 notebook. I thought it would fit into my A5 agenda at work (much more me )

Sorry my friends, I'm off topic as usual but I know some of my stationery friends (@vanilla_addict @tealocean @More bags @BigCherry) will enjoy and the rest of you will indulge me

Thank you for tagging me! What a beautiful sight! I love candles too. That is so funny of your husband! I hope it gives coworkers a laugh too!

Love your new pens Miss Dawn — those are just perfect for adding a little fun/humor to the work day, don’t you think? Pretty colors too. I swear, that Mr Dawn is the biggest sweetheart (always so thoughtful, all his sweet and romantic gestures over the years make him a gem of a husband!!!). Beautiful notebook too. I hope you can take short breaks here and there during this working weekend.

- Later, I promise

Yup I would totally rock that one!!!
Thank you for sharing

Hahaha OMG these pens are SOOOOO AWESOME!! Mr. Dawn rules....please tell him (again-?) that he has a huge fan club here on tPF!! Too funny on your comment to @BigCherry (lurking & liking...hey, aren’t we all “guilty” of that at times?!)

Thank you for tagging me! What a beautiful sight! I love candles too. That is so funny of your husband! I hope it gives coworkers a laugh too!

I love this candle! I just started burning it. It's a Paddywax Library collection Jane Austen candle. It's soothing, with white floral notes (gardenia, jasmine etc.).

Because Mr Dawn and I went on a little perfume making course in Grasse, before we blended our first batch of my perfumes, I'm very attuned to what scents I like and I love this one. It was an impulse buy

Yesterday I repurchased Diptyque Roses. I've been through a few of those. I have a number of new Diptyques waiting that Mr Dawn picked for me: Rose Delight (limited edition), Vanille and Magdalen cake (limited edition). I also have new ones I bought myself- Mimosa, Baies and Violette. So many candles, so little time!!

My kindest Iamminda, thank you for sharing all my little pleasures so whole heartedly.

I must admit I haven't carried those pens to work!! They are just too incongruent with my self-image. I feel that a new Director, with a big team to manage shouldn't carry around pens saying "deadline, shmeadline"!!!

Yup I would totally rock that one!!!

Mr Dawn sends his thanks and regards to his "fan club" dearest Kendie

Those candles sound delicious! Especially the jasmine and vanilla notes! I've thought if I made my own perfume, it would include those two. Having your own perfume sounds like such a perfect treat!
