Yesterday I won two awards, woohoo! And no, not the Nobel Prize if that's what you were thinking, but the Trendy Blog Award and the Stylish Blog Award which both came as a total surprise. To accept these kind awards I have to pass them on to other bloggers so this post will basically consist of big thank you's and two long lists of wonderful blogs.  Are you ready?! K. 

I'm going to start with the award Shalyn (from Laugh Until Your Cheeks Hurt) gave me which is the Trendy Blog Award. First of all, THANK YOU Shalyn, I'm so thrilled to have received this award but mostly to have gotten it from you! If you don't know Shalyn, well, you should. Second of all, she's an incredible person, she has amazing style AND she looks like Reese Witherspoon. For real. Thirdly, she is seriously funny, her posts always make me laugh out loud so go follow her blog here! Thanks again girl! This is so much fun.

To accept this award:
1. Post about the award
2. Pass it on to 10 other bloggers
3. Send the link for the button. You can find that here.

4. Make an acceptance speech (Shalyn's rule!)

Ladies and gentlemen, the award goes to... {drum roll}:

Hot dang that's a lot of blogs. Are you ready for more? You should 'cause here we go!After Shalyn gave me the Trendy award, I got a notification saying that Grace, over at Hello Again Vintage, bestowed me with the Stylish Blogger Award. Exciting? Oui oui.  So thanks so so much Grace. For those of you who don't know Grace, she owns a vintage shop and her blog is full of artsy little treasure so check out her blog and give her some love!

The conditions:

1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.

2. Share 7 things about yourself.

3. Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers.

4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about this award.

By the way, if I've given you this award you don't need to link back to me or say how much you love me, heck, I don't want to force you into doing something you don't wanna do! But then again, it might be better to follow protocol, just in case God's watching.

It's your call! Just please don't feel like you need to link back to me, makes me feel awkward.

7 things about myself. Arh. I think I've run out of fun facts. 

- I like my dog because he doesn't talk back. Actually he barks so that might be worse

- I watched the Dakar Rally yesterday

- I think broccoli smell like old socks

- I once painted my first dog blue 

- I once completely flooded my house 

- I used to use Vick's cream as hair gel for my barbies

- I ate ants off the floor when I was little (true, true. For more see my bio here)

YES I'm done.

Now onto the awards. Ladies and gentlemen... kidding.
