CSNstores.com Review

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Anybody score some awesome Black Friday deals today?

Last week I talked about shopping with CSNstores.com.  I was offered the chance to review the item of my choice from one of CSNstores.com's 200+ online shops~

I decided to shop from luxebycsn.com.  I picked this lovely cross-body organizer bag by Kathy Van Zeeland!
Where do I start?  From the beautiful peacock blue color, to Kathy's signature hardware, right down to the handbag-shaped zipper pulls...this bag is incredibly detailed!  And like all of Kathy's bags, it's very thoughtfully designed.  Although it is small, there's plenty of space & lots of pockets for storing all the essentials. 

It was shipped the day after placing my order, and it arrived the day after that.  Unbelievably fast!!

This bag retails for $80, but it's available from CSN for only $30!

Wow!

They say that giving is the best gift.  I am so tempted to keep this gorgeous bag to myself, but in the spirit of the holidays I think I'll pass this gift on to someone who I know loves Kathy Van Zeeland.  I think she's going to be very happy on Christmas morning!

(hence the reason why I didn't take a photo of it myself...the stock photo really doesn't do it justice, but it's packed so nicely & I want it to stay that way until Christmas!)

Thanks again to CSNstores.com!  Check them out this season for all of your holiday shopping needs!

A Girl's Night

One of my favorite things about Thanksgiving (besides all of the food!) is having time to relax & getting to see the friends that are home for the holiday.

One of my closest friends from high school (we've been friends ever since she lent me a pen on the first day of school!), Rachelle, was visiting NY~ She lives in California now & I miss her so much!  Whenever she's visiting we always make sure to see each other.

I picked her up after work yesterday and we went to Roosevelt Field mall.  My camera battery was dead, so these pictures taken on my Blackberry will have to do~

We lucked out & the purikura machine had been reinstalled, so we took some purikura together for the first time!  The deco pens were broken though, so we couldn't decorate them...


I've really been needing a girl's night lately, it was so fun!  Great seeing you Rachelle!  Until next time~
