You are a very lucky girl :) Big fan of the belt in the first picture, and the nerd glasses! I think you and Ted should get matching pairs :)

I love Christmas shopping, too! I love it so much that I've already got it done! How's that for a Christmas nerd? Now all that's left is buying my decorations, which is the best part.

This post isn't really conducive to comments from males... but I'll try anyway.

Heffalump said...

Lovely!

Curtis and Dani Welton said...

How fun! I'm excited to do some Christmas shopping this year.

Mikaela said...

ooh I like them all!
Especially the B&W one.

Jocelyn said...

How fun to be able to "pick" your own gifts! Now you just have to perfect the "oh my goodness...it's just what I wanted" look for christmas morning:-)

Samantha said...

I LOVE Christmas shopping, too! I just got a little excited thinking of it coming so soon. I like picking my own gifts, but I also like a little element of surprise, which my husband always gives me! He usually surprises me with diamond jewelry, and you can never go wrong with that. I love the dresses you picked out - I definitely need some cute, new additions to my wardrobe this holiday!

Annie said...

So here's my sekrit... I'm not a dress person. At all. I'm more of a jeans and cardi or slacks and blouse kinda girl. Which is why I love Katharine Hepburn's style.

With that being said, those are still some cute-cute dresses. And I love the nerd glasses!

megan said...

P.S. Why cant I get on to laurens bite?
