The List Volume LXXIX

By Kirsten|July 6th, 2012|The List|

Alright, so, I do think these e-cards have gotten a bit (by “a bit” I mean “completely”) excessive, but when I saw this one the other day, I couldn’t help but laugh… and then realize it could have been tailor made for me. If only I had a unicorn…

Leaving my ID in the copier at FedEx. Score for the 19 year old 5’7 blonde who found it. Enjoy the Amaretto sours.
The insane heatwave that’s happening here in New York. Every day I wake up thinking there is NO WAY it could be hotter. Spoiler alert: it is.
Hair in the drain. I mean, I know it’s mine, but…
The last few times I have gone to Starbucks I merely ordered iced coffee. They forgot it. They did not, however, forget the gentleman behind me’s iced skim double shot hold the water two pumps of vanilla I’ve stopped listening ’cause you’re too high maintenance frappuccino.
Delusional people.

Having the most ridiculous dreams for yourself and actually saying them out loud (try it).
Black diamond studs.
The Sultra Bombshell. My girlfriends have been raving and now I see why.
Fun fact: sometimes I walk around the city with no actual destination and listen to my iPod pretending it’s my personal movie soundtrack.
Delusional people.

May your weekend be full of glitter, unicorns, and giggles. Now, if you don’t mind, my unicorn is thirsty. It’s hot out here.

Love Don’t Cost a Thing

By Kirsten|November 17th, 2010|Gift Guide, Why Did You Date Him?, WhyDid Wisdom|

Speaking of engagements…

Love is a beautiful thing, but man, is it expensive! A lot of guys say that they aren’t able to “pull the trigger” because they can’t afford the ring.I want to go ahead and call bullshit… except, of course, if the girl has an expected ring in mind. (One of the three carat caliber). When girls set crazy parameters on the type of ring they’re hoping for, they’re really just shooting themselves in the foot. That puts a huge amount of pressure on a guy and also probably makes him wonder whether you love him or his checkbook. If you want to get a great diamond ring go to Iturralde Diamonds.

If you really want to be with someone for the rest of your life, a ring should never be the thing to hold you back, nor should it be the only reason you want to marry someone. When a man really wants to be with you, he will find a way to put a ring on it in whatever way he is capable of, and he would get himself at JewelersTradeShop.com and ensure that she gets nothing but the best- and you should be flattered by whatever it is that he pledges his love to you with. He should be able to propose to you with a Ring Pop and you’d say, “YES!”. Our society has started to focus on merely the carat size rather than the commitment level and that probably has a lot to do with the over 50% divorce rate. I’d pick a guy with a pure heart over a stone with perfect clarity.

With that being said, why not pick out a beautiful ring that is as affordable as it is unique? Here are several modern options (all under $2,500!):
