Stylish Blogger Award

Velvet Palette was recently nominated by Chanelle Louwen, the author of the wonderful Creative Colourful Musings of Life blog, for the Stylish Blogger Award. It’s a great honor and it truly means a lot to know that my little blog has provided inspiration and made it to someone’s favorites list. Following the 4 rules to accept this award…

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

Chanelle, thanks so a million for your kind words.. I enjoyed your lighthearted and very real and down to earth blog. Keep it up!

2. Share seven things about yourself.

The seven things I can think of right now:

- I’m addicted to shoes… super high heels more specifically!

- My next on the list (more of a crush than addiction) are cowhide rugs, red 1950s convertible Cadillacs with white interiors, ruffled dresses, big rings, and funnel cakes to name a few..

- I dream of living in an ocean-front glass house.. if that’s even at all feasible..

- Skydived once.. and would love to do it more.. and perhaps get certified someday. you never know..

- I’m a little claustrophobic, not a big fan of tiny sport cars no matter how fancy, I hate car park buildings and I just can’t help but lower my head every time I drive under one of those maximum height clearance bars.. I know I kinda look funny when I do that!

- I have a HUGE crush on George Clooney but I totally wouldn’t mind Gerard Butler, Dermot Mulroney, Ryan Gosling, or Ryan Reynolds really… i’m just sayin’ =)

- I prefer winter over summer..

3. Pay it forward to 15 recently discovered great bloggers.
