"We turn not older with years, but newer every day." - Emily Dickinson

My birthday is less than a month away, thus the planning of celebrations shall commence.

I am not one to have an excessively long birthday list, but this year seems to be different. Perhaps it is the massive amount of time I spent surfing the web over the past two months, but I can name about 50 million things I am dying to have. So in case you're dying to get me something, here are a few ideas...

Lillly Pulitzer Take Note Mouse Pad in Cabanarama

It's a giant sticky pad that serves as a mouse pad... I can't think of anything better. My current one is getting low and rather dingy, a replacement is in order.

The Hip Hostess Demi Apron in Pink Sorbet

As if I really needed another apron but I just couldn't resist this little gem. (Even if you don't buy one for me, you have to check out her stuff. The owner/designer is ridiculously talented and the aprons would make great bridal or girlfriend gifts!)

Tory Burch Classic Cat Eye Sunglasses

I have needed a new pair of shares for months, it's about time I break down and replace my old and practically broken Dior ones.

The Junior League of Denver 2010 Cookbook Colorado Classique

As a happy and hardcore Junior Leaguer, I think it is a necessity to own as many JL cookbooks as possible. While I am just getting started here in Denver, I know that the Washington, D.C. one was always amazing and I have heard rave reviews of Colorado Classique!

Lilly Pulitzer A Day in the Life Journal in Lillywood

Part of my "30 before 30" list is to keep a journal every day for at least a year. I hope to start on my birthday this year and this adorable journal will keep me writing all year long.

Sonicare FlexCare Rechargeable Toothbrush

Is it lame that I am asking for a toothbrush for my birthday? Probably... Who cares, I want it!!
