Hit or Miss Monday & the giveaway winner!

Well, I am sad to say we are back from the beach.  It was a great vacation and we arrived home in Charlotte just in time for record breaking temperatures like much of the rest of the country.  So if you're in one of those areas - or even if you're not - kick back, relax, grab a cup of iced coffee and check out this week's Hit or Miss Monday.

But before we dive into that - we need to announce the winner of our Embracing Life Love Art giveaway:




Congratulations Kelly!  Please email us at [email protected] with your contact information!

Ok now on to the show...

Jamie's Hit:

you have no idea how much i love these pillow cases. i am about to tell you something pretty embarrassing about my life. my husband and i fight over space in a king size bed. he said that space is proportional to size of the person. this worked fine for him until i got pregnant and became a whale.... then not as much. the "fights" got to the point that he put a piece of tape on the center of our headboad. yes. tape. we are that weird. go ahead and point and laugh. it made me laugh so hard the night he did it that i left it there. so now you know ---- i LOVE these pillowcases.



And her Miss:

people, we all know that louis vuitton doesn't sell trash cans. who are you trying to impress? and -- i thought people got all mad when their trash cans got stolen, why would you want to make it look like the most expensive trash can on the block??? you are asking for it to get jacked (or for me to make fun of you) 


And my Hit:

I know I am not the only one who experiences the hypnotic powers of Target.  I am starting to think they blow something through the air conditioning vents - some kind of invisible hypnotizing powder that FORCES you to wander aisle by aisle, just tossing things in your cart because you cannot live without it.  I used to think a one stop shop like Target was amazing - now I just think it's amazingly dangerous.


And my Miss:

Not only are these shoes just repulsive to look at, I can't help but wonder how contorted the foot inside of this shoe looks...what is this?  What is the point?  And HOW do you actually walk or stand in these shoes without killing yourself?  I, for one, adore red shoes and have several pair in my shoe collection - but there has to be a limit.  Even the pretty red color cannot save these shoes from being downright creepy.


So what did everyone else see this week?
