Happy Almost-Friday! Also, happy International Country Music Day and Constitution Day. Birthdays today: Billy the Kid, William Carlos Williams, Hank Williams, Ken Kesey. RIP Stanley Crouch, and thanks for the education. What fragrance are you wearing?
I have a serious soft spot for today's fragrance, vintage Old Spice. It reminds me of junior high, plus, I was rather surprised to discover, much later, that it's an excellent carnation perfume.
Reminder: on 9/18 the topic is Soft spot...wear a perfume that you may or may not wear often, and may or may not really love, but that remains dear to you for some other reason. Suggested by Kanuka.
And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2020, where I'll try (but frequently fail) to always have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

In Masque Milano L’Atessa. How much I love, adore this gorgeous iris!
I had a very good night sleep and I feel very rested!
It is going to be warm today, so I want to take advantage of a nice long walk and go to the bakery to get some fresh italian bread and then to the post office to mail the swapmeet packages.
I am glad is almost Friday! Looking forward to the weekend!
Happy Thursday!
You smell wonderful and sounds like a good day ahead, enjoy!
Thank you, Cazaubon! ?
I hope you have a great day..
Thank you, Sistine! Hope everything goes fine with your move!
Glad you had a better night’s sleep, it makes all the difference. Enjoy your long walk!?
Thank you! Sleeping well made a huge difference indeed! Glad to hear all your family is safe and fine! Enjoy your day!
L’Attessa is so, so gorgeous! You smell great!
Thank you! ?
Hooray for a good night’s sleep. And you smell great!
Thank you, Hajusuuri!
Tempted to Cal L’Attesa “Best in Show” in the Iris category
I agree! It is absolutely gorgeous!
Happy Thursday! Visiting the bakery and a long walk sounds wonderful!
I did get the chance to go outside at lunch time. I got busy with work, so I postponed it for tonight! Looking forward to it!
Happy you are rested, and wearing one of your favorites ?
Thank you, Lillyjo! ?
Your sleep, bread, walk, all sound amazing!
?
Love L’Atessa as well. You smell great!
Thank you, Undina!
Hope that you got all your errands done today!
Unfortunately, I had to postpone my errands until tomorrow because work came in the middle. But I had a nice, long walk early in the evening.
Today is baking day: apple pie and chocolate chip cookies. Wearing 4160 Tuesdays Clouds edp.
I am planning to make apple and peach pie on Saturday! The season is calling for it! ??
I will be right over .. ?
Me too!?
Yay for a baking day! I made chocolate chip cookie dough last week and froze most of it. I find it very comforting to think I COULD have a fresh chocolate chip cookie (or three) whenever I want one! Enjoy playing in the kitchen! (And sorry to hear we’ve been sharing our smoke with you. They say “sharing is caring,” but I’m not so sure about that.)
Yay for baking! I shall check out reviews for Clouds. I just ordered some 4160 samples from Indiescents and am working my way through them.
It has been reformulated and renamed Both Sides of Clouds (the original formula was mostly naturals and $$$$). I haven’t smelled the current version yet but will when I get back to SD next month. They have it at Perfumology.
Baking and perfume smells – ???
I’ll bring coffee!
Yummm
Is there any pie left? 😉
Yes, come on over! 🙂
Hi friends! I recently received a perfume package gift from a lovely fairy and am working from home today so I can play with it a bit. I’m sampling two iris fragrances: Iris Perle (Les Indemodables) and Iris Lumiere (Shalini). My original plan was to not peek and spray blind, but one turned out to be truly terrible on my skin, and I HAD to look up what on earth could be in it that would make me squirm. That’s Iris Lumiere, which smells kinda like dirt, but I like dirt! Apparently I’m picky about my dirt. From the notes listed, I should like this but it’s a scrubber. I think I like Iris Perle, which at the moment smells like lemon meringue pie.
I hope you all have some moments of peace today.
Thank you for the mini review, lemming happily killed for Iris Lumière. I’ve smelled Iris Perle and liked it but not enough to buy. Wishing you peace as well.
I figured out that it must be an overdose of galbanum in Iris Lumiere that bothers me. Although I’m usually a big fan, it’s very dense and murky here – similar to the stale vase water syndrome some people are familiar with. Iris Perle was pleasant enough but that’s about it.
Thank you for the kind words. 🙂
Hi all, my SOTD is Shalimar Souffle Intense. Pillowy soft Incense and vanilla, if only the opening would last a tad bit longer. That’s my favorite part of the scent.
The hubby is working from home today in a day-long Zoom meeting.
Headed out for a four mile walk. 🙂
I’ve got that Shalimar comimg in a swap and am excited to try it. And I’m so jealous of your walk! Can’t wait until the air quality allows me to go on walks again.
Oh, I love Shalimar Souffle! I think you’ll love it. 😀
To me, it’s literally a hug in a bottle. It does wear close to the skin, but lasts for about eight hours. Much like Kate Walsh’s Boyfriend, it’s very cozy and cashmere-sweater worthy.
It reminds me a little bit of Dior’s Addict, though a tad less floral. I may do a side by side comparison at some point.
Any Shalimar version is great in my eyes lol!
It truly is! What version do you prefer?
I need to dig around for my Shalimar Bath Oil. It makes for a nice bed time bath ritual.
Ditto
In Lagerfeld’s Chloe for the CP
Beautiful!
Grazie
Ohhhh, you smell wonderful!
May I come sit next to you?? I’ll bring coffee and cookies. 🙂
Did someone say cookies ? ?
Yes, please
I’m wearing New Musk Man for the first time in a while. I don’t know if I oversprayed or what, but today I’m just not feeling it and it is bothering me. Strange, because it is one of my desert island scents. Yesterday’s Dzonghka was much better. I may have to scrub it off.
I hope your next choice works better for you!
Almost twins haha. I’m in Dzongkha today.
Miss Dior Originale
Heading to dentist for filling shortly 🙁
Good luck! Hope everything goes smoothly!?
Good luck!
Urk. Good luck at the dentist!
Yeeep! Hope that your dentist visit went well!
Thanks for the well wishes. I am doing better now than I was earlier. I am such a wimp when it comes to the dentist.
I’m in Coromandel. I’ve got a soft spot for Chanel I guess.
Thank you again to everyone for your kind words yesterday. I got busy in the afternoon and didn’t have a chance to get back to NST and comment back to everyone, but I read all your comments and appreciate them all!? My son arrived safely at his destination last night after two very long days on the road. Now I can fully breathe a sigh of relief, and start planning my trip out there.?
It’s a gorgeous morning here. Went for an early run along the lake and fall is definitely in the air.
Belated congrats on the new job!!! didn’t have time to read all the comments in yesterday’s thread but that one jumped out…how exciting. 🙂
Thanks She-ra!?
Yay on the new job! And the son making it across country!
Thanks KellyC!
Whew!.. glad your son is safe and sound. If it’s not too nosy, why Utah?
Also in my head now I’m calling him Johnny Utah ? I can’t help it.
Ha! That’s awesome.? My husband would love that, it’s one of his favorite movies. We meant to watch it with our college daughter this summer before she left, but didn’t get around to it.
Well, he went out west a few years ago on spring break with some buddies and fell in love with it. He’s had the itch to move out there ever since. He’s young, now is the time to do it. My hope is he comes back “home” in a few years.
Good for him! I wish him all the best!
Congratulations on the new job! And glad to hear your son made it safely to his destination.
Thanks SmokeyToes!?
Briefly dropping in to say I’m CP compliant for the first time this week. I’m wearing Orris Noir, which is lovely, spicey, and not very complicated. I don’t see comments about it from others, and I always liked it from way back my first niche sample set. Finally bought a bottle on discount a few weeks ago, and I’m so glad I can enjoy it when I want to!
Yay! That is a nice one! I only have a sample but it’s great!
Santal Massoia today. The movers are here and I have no idea what to do except stay out of the way. I hope everyone has a peaceful day.
Stay out of the way, and smell good.
Hope all goes well! We are psyching ourselves up for our move 10/14. Santal Massoia is soothing.
Good luck!
Hope that your moving is smooth and painless!
Trying Iris Torréfié today from Omega’s split. 🙂
Lovely, powdery orris w/ bergamot so far.
You smell great. This was an instant buy for me.
It’s really great, isn’t it?
CP-compliant today in Zoologist Camel. Today is the one-year anniversary of my father’s passing, and Camel is the scent I wore almost every day when I visited him in the hospital during weeks leading up to his death.
Oh Koyel…..I would imagine today will be a difficult one for you. Sending big hugs!
I know how you must be feeling today! Sending hugs and peace!
I am sorry this is a hard anniversary for you, and glad to know that your perfume can offer comfort.
I hope you find some comfort today remembering your father. Big hugs to you. Also hope your air quality has improved…my brother is in SF and his is much better in the past two days. Here is San Diego the quality has turned worse for some reason 🙁 phone is saying 155 right now but I am hopeful when the heat clears out in a few days it will improve.
I’m sorry to hear about the poor air in San Diego. I hear the poor air may be returning over the weekend. My face has been glued to my i-Phone app AirVisual.
Thankfully, the air quality in SF is much better yesterday and today! I’ve been on three walks just to roaming about – trying to make hay while the sun is shining. 🙂
Happy discovery, another nest of owls by my apartment. Life is good.
I’m so very sorry you lost your father last year. I know how hard these anniversaries can be. Sending love and support!
Thinking of you on this hard anniversary. Big hugs.
Big hugs to you on this sad anniversary. The first one is the hardest I think.
Sending you hugs, Koyel. It will be a tough day but I hope you can find some comfort in your scent.
Big hugs to you, Koyel. May Camel give you comfort.
Hugs, friend.
hugs to you Koyel.
Lot’s of love to you, Koyel.
Comforting thoughts on this sad day.
I am so sorry Koyel, big hugs (Shalimar hugs, no less) to you on a difficult anniversary. Be gentle to yourself.
My sympathies Koyel. These kinds of anniversaries are painful. Hugs. Be kind to yourself.
Adding my hugs and sympathies to you, Koyel.
Hello all!
Poll compliant today in Brin de Reglisse, the first Hermessence I bought. And this was back when they were a full $100 cheaper than they are more. I went through my full bottle and finally got a replacement. Smells just like I like it.
Stay safe all!
Good to hear that your new bottle smelled just like the old one!
It was out of stock for awhile maybe 5 years ago so I was a bit nervous…
Wow, have the prices gone up that much? That’s crazy.
Truly! I remember distinctly paying $185 for my bottle. They’re up to $272 now! ?
Wow.
Full day in Amouage Enclave today.
What I can tell from smelling all 4 new fragrances is that the brand might be going in a new direction, abandoning their heavy character and going a lighter route that probably appeals more to Western audience. Who knows?
I’m really dying to try these new ones!! I do like their old ones a lot though, but am open to their new investigations.
Thanks for the birthday wishes. This morning was pretty eventful. My aunt left this morning and I had to say something to her when she was brushing her teeth. My bathroom sink, no matter what has been slow and she doesn’t need to have the facet running while she is brushing her teeth because of it. Well, you don’t need to have th facet running full blast the whole time no matter what. Don’t know why she needs to do that and waste water, so I have to clean the sink. Was on hold for a half an hour to complain to Panera. Don’t know what happened but Sunday’s French Onion was way too salty and they were way too skimpy with the croutons and cheese. It almost seemed like the workers thought that the croutons and cheese were worth more than gold. About to get into the shower and wash off the LADDM and switch over to Lyric since it’s chilly out.
Happy belated birthday! I read your comment on Coromandel and would be happy to send you some EDT to tide you over…I am sherainsocal at gmail if interested.??
Hope your day gets better!
Running sink water makes me crazy! Especially by people who don’t pay the water bill.
Happy belated birthday! LADDM is the perfect scent to wear when things aren’t going quite right.
I hope things improve!
Robin, the mention of Old Spice makes me think of my father. It was his aftershave, and it brings back such happy memories. I need to find a vintage bottle.
My mother was a Chanel No. 5 person, if she wore scent at all. For some reason No. 5 smells awful on me, although it’s great on my sister.
Commando today. Allergies acting up and I’m coughing a lot, decided not to add another layer of potential irritant.
Praying for everyone suffering from wildfires, smoke and flooding. I’m waiting for the swarms of locusts to appear.
I initially read Commando as Coromandel 😉 and had to go back b/c it didn’t make sense.
Hope your allergies get better. And it does seem time to cue the locusts.?
I hear you about the plague of locusts. We are having the plague of darkness with the fires. This year has been quite a humdinger so far.
there have been locusts all over Kenya this year.
My son’s allergies just went into full swing today!
Ideally what you want is an old bottle of Old Spice that’s been gathering dust in somebody’s medicine cabinet….vintage is better but seems crazy to pay much for it.
Robin,
I need to go sniff my father’s old bottle and the newer ones to see if there is a change. I’ll report back. Assuming I can open his old bottle. ?
Ha, that would be funny!
anngd,
You summed up my parents. Old Spice and #5. I’m fortunate to have Dad’s bottle and a bunch of my mother’s. They are like gold to me.
Before my father passed, I stocked him up on about 6 bottles of Old Spice. I still have those ones.
I’m non-CP-compliant in Traversée du Bosphore. Another day of breatheable air (so far) and it feels like a gift. Yesterday evening my son and I stayed up past his bedtime, shucking rainbow popcorn in the backyard, chasing dragonflies, and delighting in the chance to be outside. I’m finding that I’ve become weirdly wary of social interaction after spending so much time in isolation, and am struggling with some work plans that will put me in group interactions in unfamiliar places this afternoon and tomorrow. Not sure whether to hide in my den or force myself to go forth…
So glad to hear you were outside and could breathe, yay!
Good luck with the rest of it, I have no advice at all.
Robin, I love that picture!
I’m in Dzongkha today. This is only my second time wearing it, but I’m enjoying more than the first. I think I was perplexed the first time LOL. But I can’t stop sniffing at the moment.
Oooh, you smell so good. I adore Dzongkha.
That was how I felt when I first tried Dzongkha too. I eventually fell in love.
I love that picture too…something about it looks edible.
Had a bit of a perfume fail this morning when I discovered upon spraying one of my arms and my neck that my Bond No 9 Brooklyn travel spray had gone off. I scrubbed myself with rubbing alcohol to get it off and applied the very strong and perfumey West Side by Bond instead. Bond No 9 is a brand that was really popular when I got into niche, so I do have a soft spot for a few of them. In particular, I have a soft spot for Brooklyn because it’s the perfume that comes closest to smelling like my beloved Crabtree & Evelyn Gardener’s Hand Cream. Sad I had to throw away a 90% full travel spray, but I’ve had it since it first came out in 2008.
It was sad how much I looked forward to my mid week grocery trip after work yesterday. Since I’ve been WFH since March and can’t go out for walks with the unhealthy air, the only time I’ve been getting out is for groceries (and taking down the trash, recycling, and compost). I enjoyed sitting in the a/c in my car and took my time while at the store. It was definitely a much more pleasant experience than I usually have there. I even brought home a cheap little skeleton with a jack o’lantern head for a little early Halloween decor. Please, please let the rain clear up our air tomorrow!
I’m sorry your travel spray expired! I hope your air quality improves soon.
Fingers crossed for you therabbitsflower.
Uh oh. Maybe I should start checking up on my perfume rollerballs and travel sprays.
I’m wearing Ecstasy, by Tiziana Terenzi, from my blind buy package. It’s pretty, has good strength (it’s an extrait) and sillage, but doesn’t strike me as being unusually beautiful or otherwise really compelling. I’m hoping the dry down makes me more ecstatic.
I hope that you are happy with it. Maybe it requires a 2nd wear to really showcase itself?
I have a couple of TT’s arriving in small decants. Please tell me what you think of the line.
I am sampling: Maremma and Orion both of which I have soft soft spots for – mostly because of their names and my heritage. I am quite curious.
So far, still no ecstasy. 🙂 I don’t dislike it at all, and it has a sort of “grand perfume” vibe going, but I don’t think I’m going to need to wear it a lot. This is the first of the line that I’ve sniffed. Be happy to send this along to you, AngelaB, so that you can round out your sampling of the line. Give me a holler at lisadarty in the land of the haute mayle if you’d like it (it’s a Fragrancenet travel spray).
Lisa D that is very very kind of you! I am hitting you up on the hawt mail now. Sorry it didn’t work for you.
I have mostly a non-compliant stash with me so I veered off again today in Nightingale by Zoologist.
It’s a funky fun crazy first wear. I am getting some floral that’s sweet and fruity then green underneath but it’s GOOD. Now there’s smoke too. It’s an extrait. Here’s the note list below. It appears it was atleast a finalist in a competition or two recently also.
Top notes are bergamot, lemon and saffron; middle notes are plum blossom, red rose and violet; base notes are agarwood (oud), patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss, olibanum, white musk, labdanum and ambergris. I am feeling the lemon, saffron, plum blossom and violet with the rose, some patch too already. It’s taking me on an adventure for sure.
Happy Thursday all. My heart goes out to all those in flood areas and fires too.
Happy Thursday AngelaB!
Thank you Robin,
I’m in Dior Belle de Jour, a very pretty and fruity rose. Not pretty enough to buy, however. It’s too sweet for me. Aaaaand the price is too steep for me.
The SA’s at Dior as a rule don’t give samples, so I brought my own atomizer a la the intrepid hajusuuri. They were reluctant, but agreed to share some juice. This was from an outing pre-Covid.
Picked up groceries via Curbside this morning. The neighbors are putting in a pool, and the noise is obnoxious. The pupster is a little high strung and does NOT want to use her back yard restroom. I may have to leash walk her in the front yard for the next few days. ?
Need to get on the stick and package up my swaps! Y’all have a good day and stay safe!
LOL. The Dior store did not even want to decant for me but said I can do it. I brought with me a 5mL metallic travel spray and proceeded to help myself to Mitzah. I got to about 2mLs before another SA came out and said I was not allowed to do that. I told her (as my fingers kept pressing) that another SA said it was fine for me to do. I managed to eke out another 2mLs before the original SA said sorry but I can keep my travel spray – of course I can, it’s mine. I did not have any drop fall anywhere obvious in the pristine boutique.
Hahaaaa! You rock! It’s funny that one of them had the temerity to give you permission to keep YOUR travel spray.
Funny story for you: I was chatting with a Dior SA about difficult notes. She said lavender was difficult for her. I asked how she felt about tuberose, as it’s a challenging note for me. She stated there “wasn’t enough rose” in tuberose for her. I clarified that I was talking about tuberose, not rose! She immediately began to praise Dior because “their roses are so well blended.” At that point, I backed away and booked on down the road. ?
??
??
LOL!
??!
Oh my, SAs should know when to shut up!
You could say that about alot of people! Sometimes even me, LOL.
SOTD is my dear old friend, Gucci EDP. It’s true that I haven’t been wearing it much lately – in part because it’s been summer, and in part because so many new discoveries since last fall/winter have distracted me. But it doesn’t truly qualify for the CP because (despite the recent inattention on my part) it’s less “I keep you around for sentimental reasons” and more “I never want to be without you”. Happy Friday Eve, everyone!
So many perfumes and so little (skin) time.
So true … so true.
SOTD = Guerlain Iris Torréfié
It was just a matter of time … took advantage of the Bergdorf Gift Card event. Love it, on me, and your experience could have been different: spicy, leathery, ambery iris with traces of citrus and vanilla❣️

I’m having a lazy Thursday and it’s just about right for the beginning of staycation. I will share an NYT article in a reply to this comment.
Interesting read from The NY Times. I expected the disparity, including what the companies offered or didn’t.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/17/upshot/pandemic-workers-benefits-disparity.html
Note: I’m not looking for any debate. It is a follow-up to a question I raised a week or two back.
???! Why am I not surprised that you grabbed that iris?
? … otherwise, I would have gone in on Omega’s split!
I would have been disappointed if she had’nt!
My wee decant of Arquiste Boutonnière is almost at an end. Might have to buy a bottle, and since the only size is 100 ml, well, so be it.
Wishing everyone well,
I’ve been lucky to sample a few Arquiste scents, they all were very appealing. I’m imaging you smell wonderful. 🙂
Quick pop in, and then I’ll come back to read others….
Soft spot scent that ended up being quite the love. Allure EdP. I had never considered it until I was handed a partial bottle by my sister. It was either hers or my late mother’s. I love the soft peach and vintage feel of this.
That’s my soft spot too- my mother’s “signature scent” for a long time now. I always associate it with her. Unfortunately I don’t have any, so I’ll come up with something else for tomorrow! You smell wonderful.
A past lover wore Old Spice and although he smelled wonderful in it I can not stand to smell it any more due to some very bad associations with it. Too bad.
My SOTD is not particularly on project but is Agonist Arctic Jade. I was puttering around in my little perfume cabinet and saw it and thought maybe it would be nice for today. It has an unusual combination of some fruits + jasmine + patchouli + vanilla and is an upbeat scent that seems fitting for a rather gray overcast day with rain in the forecast. I have a good one planned for tomorrow and the CP.
Jade is one of my favorite stones, the perfume version sounds lovely!
I can’t bear to smell Halston Z-14 anymore, same reason. I used to smell it in the wild from time to time. Thankfully it’s no longer popular. 😉
Old Spice on the other hand, is for me a fabulous carnation, just like Robin said. I have a spray decant, I swiped some from my dad’s decades old splash bottle. He rarely wore it when it was new, or any scent for that matter, and never wears it now. I should liberate it from it’s dark cupboard some day soon.
Yes! That Old Spice is yearning to be free!
😀 😀 😀
Vol de Nuit extrait
https://youtu.be/njafUNH7O98
goodness, I love Vol de Nuit. Beautiful 🙂
Wearing Mary Greenwell Plum, sadly discontinued. It’s not my top favorite, but it was so highly praised and loved by Mals, that when I saw it being discontinued, I grabbed a travel spray on sale.
Our air completely cleared up, so I was able to enjoy my regular evening walk last night, and I’m airing my house for the first time in a week.
I love the first 20 minutes of Plum!
Surprisingly, today I enjoyed it more than I remember from previous times. Go figure…
Cristalle Eau Verte today, because it is still late summer here
Did some cooking and a bit harvesting in the garden, and tomorrow we will finally go to Burgundy, if it is still no area of risk tomorrow morning.
Good luck tomorrow tannina!
Horrible wet and cold day here, winter is back for another few days, so I’ll adapt by wearing Chambre Noir 🙂
Oh boo!
I’m really concerned about the maple tree in the front yard. The leaves are dropping all at once and the fallen ones don’t look healthy. I am hoping the ten days of smoke didn’t permanently harm the tree. It’s at least a hundred years old and I’d hate to lose it. I think I may call an arborist. Wearing Stash because I find it calming.
Hopefully it decided to go into a fight mode and will be good as new come spring!
Oh no. I don’t know a thing about it…can smoke kill trees that quickly?
SotD = Une Amourette by EldO for Roland Mouret
From a manufacturer sample sent to me by a loverly NSTer some time back.
Iris and vanilla+woods, I like it a lot, but mostly keep it around for the name. I like the way designer Roland Mouret’s last name is at the center of Une Amourette.
And the name means “a love affair”, so there’s that. 😀
Sounds like it’s a winner for you!
Feeling a lot more like myself today. A decent (but not stellar) night’s sleep, plus plenty of tea has done wonders. I was even able to get an errand off my never-ending “To Do” list.
SOTD = Jean Patou Chaldee, from the sample stash. This has a great, “just snuffed out candle” note to it in the top notes. At least, that is what I smell.
I love the just sniffed out candle smell! Glad you had better sleep and checked off a To Do today!
Thanks! I’ve been poking around the discounters to see what they have for various Patou offerings, keeping in mind that their bottles might not smell like my samples.
I’m the opposite. I can not stand snuffed out candle smell. This is why I don’t by candles. Except for birthdays, which I only use one.
Just for grins I checked out the notes list on Frangrantica. No snuffed out candles or beeswax listed, of course. So I think it’s just me.
Jeeze Louise *buy not by.
Glad to hear you are feeling much better today!
Thanks! I guess that yesterday was just a really “off” day for me.
Wearing Teazzurra and proud of it!! Since it arrived in a package last Saturday in the middle of a tropical storm (wow USPS!!!) I had been enjoying it so much. It is now just after 6pm here and my Dad had me order him a bottle of Dior Homme Intense that is out for delivery as I’m writing this. Should be dropped off here within an hour and I am very curious what is it going to smell like!! Tomorrow my Sticky Cake should be arriving, can’t cannot CANNOT wait!! Yay!!
Enjoy your deliveries!
Now is your dad ordering unsniffed?
I did not sleep a wink last night. Literally every hour and a half I would wake up.
Funny kid story- last Friday I let my daughter have my phone because she likes to do a beauty wish list at various beauty stores. After a bit, she hands me the phone and says “I did my first ever order mom” very proud like. Wth!? I checked my phone and she had placed an order with Amazon for a blond wig for 18 dollars. Apparently my card number was stored with them, which is now fixed. Thank goodness it was only 18 dollars and payday! The wig arrived and is actually pretty cute. You might wonder why a wig? Because a couple weeks ago, she cut her hair very short AGAIN. I decided it’s her hair, she can do what she wants.
Sotd is TM Miroir des Majesties because I have a soft spot for Mugler ?
Yay you for letting your daughter do what she wants with her hair. I remember that my mom cried when I came home from college with a pixie cut. No blonde wigs for me, though. ?
Hope you have a good night sleep tonight! ?
