So, my 24th birthday is this Wednesday (6/12) and I thought it would be fun to put together a wish list of some items that have caught my eye lately. Most of these items I'd never be able to afford, but hey a girl can dream right? I've been coveting most of these items for awhile, I do hope that maybe I can purchase one of them for myself. Which one would you buy?!
(Items: 1. J.Crew Crystal Color Mix necklace | 2. Paperfashion iPhone Case | 3. DV by Dolce Vita Sandals | 4. Kate Spade NY Tote | 5. London Pillow | 6. Sugar Paper Happy Birthday To You Card | 7. Jack Willis Laptop Case | 8. 'The Other Typist' by Susan Rindell | 9. Poppy by Coach Fragrance | 10. Paisley Bed Collection | 11. A Good Read Print by A Thing Created | 12. Beatrice Dress by Poppy London | 13. Peonies | 14. Black Patent MaryJane Flats)
It feels weird to say I'm going to be 24. I guess everyone kind-of hits that point where they realize they are almost a half a decade old. Just think, you've been on this planet for almost 25 years. Where did the time go?! Then you start asking yourself (or at least I have) what have you done with your life? Have you accomplished what you thought you were going to? I guess I have one more year to really try and succeed at what I want to do, and I have to look back and just be grateful of everything I already have done. It's pretty crazy at all the opportunities that I've been able to be apart of, and I just hope that I can be apart of more in the future. I just want to be happy and be content with life. That's all I can ask for.
Always,
Mostly Lisa

Lisa, I totally understand all the feelings/thoughts you're experiencing! I celebrated my quarter century birthday last year and I'll be turning 26 in a few months (scary thought). I think you have the right attitude...be proud of yourself for all that you've accomplished and set those goals because you can reach them:)! Wishing you a very happy birthday darlin:)! Hope all your dreams and wishes come true!
ReplyDeleteRita, thanks so much! I'm glad you understand and I'm not the only one. I mean, I know I'm not but it's nice to hear that someone can relate. It's crazy at how fast life can happen. To be honest, I sometimes didn't think I would make this far. I am hoping to celebrate my 25th though in New York, time to go big or go home! I have to try and be proud of the little things or else I'll go crazy. But I have done some pretty amazing things and I can't wait to see what is next.
DeleteThank you so much for your kind words. It really means a lot to me, and I will definitely try and have a good birthday. :D

It's kind-of crazy but I've had my original iPhone case since I purchased it. I desperately need a new one. Maybe you can get an upgrade soon? ;D

Great picks, I adore the pillow!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Hoping to get a few off this list, eventually. The pillow is definitely at the top of the list.

It is crazy at how fast it does fly by. I don't even feel 24, haha.
DeleteThanks for following! Appreciate it.

Ahhh entering a new era is awfully scary, I remember when I turned 25 and said the exact same thing. You start to appreciate life more and it only gets better as time progress. I am only 27 and I am still trying to "get it together" but I don't regret one moment.. maybe once or twice lol
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!

I think it's definitely a scary feeling, for me I didn't even think I would make it this far. Just with past issues and dealing with depression. It's a great feeling to make it this far, but it's also very nerve racking. Constantly wondering what is going to be around the corner. I'm glad I'm not alone in this feeling though. I am right there with you on those once or twice regrets. ;)
DeleteThanks so much!

The necklace is great. Classy with just the right amount of bling!

I completely agree! I love that it's not too overwhelming, and can still be considered a statement. Hoping I can purchase it soon!
