Hey everyone, happy Friday. It's time for the second edition of monthly must-reads (you can read the first installment here in case you missed it). And, it's time for this month's question, courtesy of Andi. The question is: "If you could have one celebrity's wardrobe, whose would it be and why?"

This took some thought, as a few different starlets came to mind. Rachel Bilson, Bethenny Frankel, Jennifer Aniston, the Kardashian sisters, and Kyle Richards all have a great sense of style that closely resembles my ideal. However, the one girl who always stands out, the one whose wardrobe I'd love to own is Lauren Conrad. No analyzing her claim to fame please! For the record, I liked Lauren on Laguna and The Hills. While some were quick to point out her somewhat lackluster personality, she just seemed real to me. Hell, if I had cameras following me around all the time, I'm sure my personality would come off as less then exciting. Aside from her spats with friends over jerk boyfriends, Lauren stayed above the fray.

Of course, the main reason I think we all watched The Hills was to see what she was wearing each week. She is the epitome of California cool. Mixing casual pieces with fun and feminine frocks, her style is accessable and easy to emmulate without looking like you're trying. She's chic and glam, and yet she strikes a delicate balance by staying true to her beach girl sensibility. If Olivia Palermo is New York's It girl, then Lauren Conrad is Los Angeles.



So, can you tell why I would LOVE to own her wardrobe? Designer handbags but a penchant for Chanel, skinny jeans, pumps, lace, girly skirts and dresses, sandals...a girl after my own heart!


Now here are some great posts from my fellow blogger friends:

    Hi everyone, happy Friday! I hope you all have wonderful things planned for the weekend. Before I start mine, I wanted to post a new monthly feature. My friend Ella asked some of her fellow bloggers to partake in a monthly question to be answered on our blogs. Of course I will answer mine right here, and also post links so you can go read what they wrote. Make sense? I know it'll be a lot of fun to participate in each month, and it will give you a chance to discover other blogs. So...the first monthly question is: What's your most sentimental jewelry item. Share the story behind it.

    This was difficult for me to answer in some ways. My mother has given me Tiffany&Co jewelry for my past birthdays, and those of course mean a great deal to me. I have a beautiful opal ring from my great-great grandmother that is also sentimental, simply because it's a piece of my family's history. But, I have to be honest and say that the one piece that really means a lot to me is my engagement ring. Cue Beyonce - He liked it so much he put a ring on it :)


    The story is that he and I met a long, long time ago. I was 18, he was 21. A mutual friend set us up on a blind date. I remember being terrified! I was so young, and so scared! But I opened the front door when he picked me up for our first date, and he was such a gentleman. I knew there was something special about him. Long story short, we went our separate ways for a few years (I pined away for him the whole damn time). We both needed to grow up and experience life on our own. Six years ago, he called me out of the blue and asked me if I could accompany him to a wedding reception. We have been together ever since. 


    Anyway, I hope that didn't bore anyone. Listed below are some amazing girls who wrote great posts in the month of February.
