eBay Holiday Collective

I buy Christmas gifts all year 'round (literally, starting in January), because if I don't I get completely overwhelmed and crazy and very un-celebratory-like once the holidays officially arrive.

If you'd like to get started a little early as well, eBay's Holiday Collective - which has men's and women's apparel, jewelry, travel and electronics accessories and home décor from Billy Reid, Chris Benz, Jonathan Adler, Ruffian, and Tibi, among others - is a great place to start. All the items are under $100, and are available exclusively on ebay.com/fashionvault beginning Monday, November 12. (If you have an iPhone, you can pick up the items one day early - today, November 11 - using the eBay Fashion iPhone app.)

Affordable, unique, adorable, yes and yes and yes.

Two of my favorite collections:

For Better Or For Worse

An email I recently received:

I randomly found your blog several weeks back and enjoyed it...well that's until I recently read that quote about voting for Romney. I am a 30-something mom voting for him and was quite insulted not only by the person who wrote it but by you posting it.

I am not going to go on about it - just know I think it is sad that you lost a reader by putting your politics on what I thought was a lifestyle blog. If I wanted to read a racist liberal blog I would've looked for one.

Argo: Go Immediately

Definitely my favorite movie this year.

Also, I can't get over how fun it must be to be John Goodman. Literally all he has to do is pop up on the screen (with his entrance usually accompanied by amazing, porn-ish music), and you know you're in for a good time.
