Keep calm, carry on, and be cool

Okay, so I am having massive doubts about being Lady Gaga for Halloween (the jig is up)...

My goal was hilarity, but I am afraid it will be a big flop and no one will understand the depth of hot mess I set out to portray. A bad sign was when one of my most up-to-date fashionista friends could not recall THE bubble outfit until I showed her the above.

I think I will just be a chic bunny, instead? I mean, rabbit ears are in vogue too right now!

Also, speaking of les Parisienes ...
I am bursting at the seams wanting to recap the following story about my cousin who is studying abroad there ...
Because of her desired anonymity, I will share the bare minimum, yet still enough to make us all swoon and sigh.

Basically, a really cute boy (who is in lurrrve with her) flew to Paris for the weekend...

because he missed her.


They aren't even "dating" (yet...no pressure!) but had a magical time.

Je suis jaloux.

I Skyped with her for 45 minutes today for the details when I maybe should have been studying, and for the rest of the day, I was grinning.

Sometimes I really don't know why I'm so cool! Je nais se qois, anyone? ;)
