Style Icon: Thank You, Thank You Very Much

I am a huge Elvis fan, if you ever go karaoking with me you better watch out, because I will be belting out some (very out of tune) Elvis. Not only is his music some of my favorite but he was handsome and stylish as well, and one of my all time favorites.







And Johnny And I rocking some Elvis karaoke in Beijing last year. We are serious about Elvis for sure. I'm sure Casey was hiding in shame during this rock out session.
I also wanted to say thank you to all my readers, new and old. Your comments and support is amazing, you all make me smile everyday. And for that, I thank you...very much. I only hope things like hosting giveaways, let you all know how much that means to me!

20+10: Tonight, I'm Cleaning out My Closet

I'm sorry mama, I never meant to hurt you, I never meant to make you cry, but tonight i'm
cleaning out my closet
20+10 #4. Become neater.
my husband out "neat"s me like crazy. I need to get with it, I used to be a neat freak! I just got used to someone else picking up after me and dong my laundry (I am one lucky girl!)

Umm yeah. My Mom and Husband aren't impressed right now. My room was so messy I couldn't even take look of the day pictures in it today. I am only documenting so I improve my habits...yikes!
I haven't done my hair or makeup since Saturday!
My room is JUST a mess! I had to clean so I could take outfits pics tomorrow.



And some lovey ladies that made me feel good during my closet clean out:
Kelly(Spice it Up) and Courtney over at KeepingupwithCourt (girl keeps it real!) nominated me for the Beautiful blogger award. I was already nominated by the Fabulous LC (who's chicken wing recipe should be award winning!) so check out my random {dork} facts here: Amber's Random Facts.

Blog Award: Confessions of a Shopaholic


LC from Let them Eat lentils (how CUTE is that blog name!?) nominated me for A Beautiful Blog Award over on her blog. THANK YOU LC! =) LC and I meet back in October at Kath's Kerf meetup, love that girl, we need to meetup again soon! I am so grateful to have meet so many great blog friends. Anyways I am supposed to list 7 random facts about me and then pass it on to 7 more amazing bloggers.

I could NOT think of anything but here it goes!

1.My Mom was born and raised in Prague but shamefully I have never been and can't speak a lick. But we plan to go this summer and I cannot wait!!Image from http://www.incoczech.com
2.I am not a "beauty" person. I can't do makeup or hair at all, headbands are my friend. Good thing my good friend Jen helps me out it in that department.

3.Most of the new friends I have made over the past 4 years have been online ones and I have become extremely close with them. #iknowsomeonelikethat

4.For a high school project my Parents arranged for me to fly down to the Roxy Quicksilver headquarters so I could meet their clothes designers and job shadow them. Pretty much awesome since 15 year old Amber was obsessed with Roxy at the time, case in point...WOW! ....Dad that was for you ;)

5.I love Seinfeld, HIMYM,The Big Bang Theory, SNL, Friends, and most recently Tosh.0. Basically I love comedies and comedians, and I feel like I kind of missed the boat on the whole Reality TV thing.

6. I am a complete and total Star Wars Geek. Definitely expect a Princess Leia and Senator Padmé Amidala/Queen of Naboo Style Icon post one of these days......seriously, they have LEGEN- wait for it -DARY style. Bigger Nerd could I be?

7. I am a huge baseball fan. And I mean HUGE! Go GIANTS! 102 days until Opening Day =)

Ok now my turn to pass the torch. I nominate some of my favorite ladies
*participation not required =)

1. Kara from Fashionably inspired, love this girl! One of my online friends turned real friends.

2. Chelsea, I meet Chelsea at Kath's KERF meetup and became fast blog friends, I*heart* her!

3. Nicole we have been online friends for awhile now, and face it that chick has STYLE!

4.Lynn who I need to meet-up with soon. She is my future best blog friend.

5.Brittany from It's Exhausting Being This Juicy! Such a sweetie, with a closet that I want to raid.

6. J from the Look for less because she is just straight up rad.

7. Andrea from Faded Plains. Because her store rocks and we share a love of ruffles.

May the Force be with you =)
