The Liebster Award!

So apparently I'm not just talking to myself! 
This is the sweetest thing ever! 
Thank you to Chantal over at BeauLifestyle for nominating me, it was the highlight of my day. I though I was excited when I had my first comment, and BOOM- 
she hit me with this thoughtful award.


The rules are as follows:
1. Post 11 facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions your nominator asks and then create 11 questions for the bloggers you nominate.
3. Choose 11 people with under 200 followers to nominate and link to them.
4. Go to their pages and let them know. (no tag backs)

The 11 things about me:

1. My parents are Chilean; my mother being half German, also.

2. Spanish was my first language and I took German in Uni. (That was a two in one, folks) ;)

3. I loathe scary movies, but more so movies in which animals appear to be hurt or die. Rip my heart out, why don't you!?

4. I have an unhealthy obsession with furniture...treasure hunting in general, and with that comes craigslist stalking. 

5. My all time favorite ice cream in Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia. Pretty much the only flavor I eat... because it's THAT good. 

6. I use to have a Mohawk... that was PINK! 

7. I'm an Accountant in my day job.

8. I'm getting married in 2 1/3 weeks and I am so excited to have such a HOT HUSBAND!

9. My favorite movie is Pride and Prejudice with Keira Knightly. I've watched it over a thousand times and I wish I were kidding.

10. A big fat hen! 

11. Is my favorite number. Second to that is 7 and then 3... OCD much?


So, those were 11 facts about me, now I have to answer 11 questions from Chantal:

1. What is your preferred transportation? I used to live in Uptown Charlotte (NC) where I use to ride my vintage bike to work everyday. That is still my all-time-favorite, but since I live in Florida I prefer the temperature much better inside my air conditioned car. At least in the summer time, we'll see when "winter" comes. ;)


2. What do you do for exercise? Currently on day 7 of P90X and I couldn't move yesterday. Ouch. 


3. What is your most favorite shop in the world?-  In the world??! Gee, that's a loaded question? I guess I would have to go with Barney's NY. They have every luxury there. 


4. Who is your biggest inspiration? My mother. Hands down the toughest little spitfire woman you'll ever meet. 


5. What is your most favorite piece of furniture in your house? I haven't mentioned it yet, but I recently acquired a campaign chest on CL which I need to fix up, but it's slowly creeping to the top of my faves. Just Classic. 


6. What was given to you as a gift that you adore? And what is on top of your wish list? My engagement ring! It was Patrick's little French grandmother's ring and it's so beautiful. Wish list? I'll keep it short. I just want a Canon EOS Rebel T3i and a iMac desktop... and maybe a white parsons desk from West Elm ... and... and... ...


7. Which computer do you own? I own a MacBook, an old little 13" white one that's still running tough but I'm looking to upgrade to a iMac.


8. Favorite song? Right now? I guess it would have to be anything off of Marina and the Diamonds new Electric Heart album... probably Primadona. I fancy her very much.

9. Ballerinas or heels? - Heels.


10. Best party ever? Hasn't happened yet! Our wedding reception is on May, 23 2013! 


11. Why did you start to blog? 
I just started it as an outlet to write down thoughts, projects, ideas and fashion inspirations... basically just to have fun! :)

My 11 nominations are:











I highly recommend you pop over to their pages to say hello! :)

And lastly my questions:

1.  What does your morning routine look like? i.e. Do you make your bed and/or drink coffee?? 
2.  Do you cook or eat out most of the time?
3.  What's your favorite food?
4.  Who's your celebrity crush?
5.  What's your favorite room in your house and why?
6.  What have you been wanting to change up in your house lately?
7.  Where do you score most of your decor finds?
8.  How much time do you spend on Pinterest- if any at all? 
9.  Have you met any bloggers in real life?  If so, who?
