(revised from the previous where i was deliriously tired and reaching for what i could possibly WANT, because i have everything i need and i am very thankful for that.)

++++++++++

1. MASSAGE AT GREAT JONES SPA – ($140)

2. TOM SHOES – ($44) – THANKS ELLE!

i love business like TOMS SHOES. for every pair you buy, a pair is donated to a child in need. i’ve love this style, despite my inner hood self knowing i would be called “BRUCE LEROY” if i wore them in the wrong area.

3. FACIAL AT MAMIES – ($150)

getting a facial at MAMIES is like getting the best facial by a funny auntie that tells you good stories and advice while extracting dirt from your pores. what could be better than that? i’ve been seeing MAMIE for about 5 years now. when i first came to her i was using bar soap on my face like a dude and had no idea that people of color needed to wear sunblock – she put me in check!

MAMIE is the woman that big celebrities go to for skincare, like super model IMAN…watch the video!

4. TOM FORD “BLACK ORCHID” FRAGRANCE – ($60)

5. APPLE WIRELESS KEYBOARD

my kitty likes to chew on anything that looks important and dangerous.

6. VINTAGE SMITHS TEE ($$$)

vintage and not brand new “made to look vintage” – me no likey that style.

7. CHANEL DENIM FLATS ($650)

need i explain? just look at these beauties!

8. HANDMADE CARD (priceless)

i LOVE a handmade card. whenever i give gifts to friends and loved ones i always make a card…it’s more personalized that way. if any of you would like to make me a card (be it on a post it or napkin or even a video) i would love that 🙂 i would also post them to the blog. if you guys are bored enough to make your old pal a card: send it to INFO@VASHTIE.COM
