1. Who is your style icon?

I love Audrey Hepburn! Her classic style is truly iconic!

I also love Sarah Jessica Parker...although I wonder if I love the Carrie Bradshaw style more? :)

2. What is your favorite socialite lit book?

I don't know if I have a true favorite socialite book. I do like Swell...that's kinda preppy!

Other than that I'm loving chick lit, especially any books published by Red Dress Ink. They are the best!

3. Favorite party theme?

I'm always in for any theme party!! I most recently went to a flapper murder mystery party. So fun! In college there were always exchanges and dances and parties to dress-up for. My personal favorite is toga!

4. Go to Halloween costume?

It's not a "go to", but I do like just a little glitter, sparkle, curl kinda fun outfit!

5. Extravagance you cannot live without?

I cannot live without my cell phone, or laptop, or camera!

Although I also can't live without my Starbucks!

6. Living person you admire?

I'd have to say my brother. He's a United States Marine. Completely fighting for freedom, so self-less and courageous. I love him.

7. Greatest Fear?

Greatest? The unknown...especially that whole end of life, now what part. But even so there's also the unknown of like...next school year! It's a little scary.

8. Trait you deplore in yourself?

I don't know that I deplore it too much, but I know it can get in the way of everything else. I try to control everything. Even if I don't really realize it. I just want it all to go my way! :)

9. Which talent would you most like to have?

I'd love to be able to dance, without the stress and extra practice. I can dance out at a bar or a wedding, but I mean dancing, with steps, onstage. I'd love to be a more "natural" dancer.

10. Greatest Achievement?

I'd say my greatest achievement so far is completing my first year of teaching, well almost! It's been a rewarding and fun experience, but one of the most stressful of my life!! I'd do it all again though...

And now to pass on this little game of fun!! If you're reading and you want to join in the fun...go for it! I tag...you! :)
