New Year's Eve is probably one of my favorite celebrations because of all the crazy things I do to prepare for it. Being a native from Spain, it's a big deal for us!
If you want to celebrate with YRose, here are some must-do's:
*Wear red undergarments
*Eat 12 grapes when the clock starts to chime at midnight (1 for each chime)
*Have your right foot lifted while eating the grapes and step on it after you eat your last grape
*Toast!
Cheers, hope your year starts wonderful!
I can't wait to see what 2010 has prepared for us...

happy holidays!

Dee (gal on the right) is coming over this weekend to do some holiday shopping with me...and of course go to Martha Stewart on Tuesday yayy. We're going to hit up the Gifted Holiday Market on Sunday. If you live in NYC, I definitely recommend checking it out! It's all local vendors with very neat stuff. I've also been looking on etsy for gifts and found some really cute items I wanted to share.
*MarciG's pottery is beautiful! I love the text birds and poppy tea bag/trinkets holder

*I'm going to be buy my brother one of these covers for his first ipod. Also, please check out their sheep clutch (how cute is it???)

best bracelet EVER
I saw this bracelet a few weeks ago in a blog and had been thinking about it everyday until I finally made the decision to purchase it. I got it in the mail today and I don't think it is going to leave my wrist anytime soon. So cute! I like items that inspire and this bracelet is going to remind me everyday of my favorite quote by Eleanor Roosevelt:
Anywho, have you bought something recently you LOVE?
"Do something everyday that scares you"

giving thanks...
This Thanksgiving weekend we decided to do a special promotion on etsy, offering free shipping with the purchase of two items or more. (something for yourself and for a friend!) Also, if you read our blog, please write "givingthanks09" during checkout for a free holiday hair clip as seen above. :)
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and get a chance to reflect on what you're thankful for. I am very thankful I went on this accessories venture with my mom!
Dinner-wise, my family and I are not very traditional...we are having:
*Spinach stuffed beef cutlets
*Mashed sweet potatoes
*Mesclun salad with oranges, apples and craisins
*Pumpkin whoopie pies with chai latte ice cream
What special dish are you making this year?

FALL 09 ~ Mademoiselle Bolo Tie
I love menswear inspired clothing... blazers, jeans, ties, you name it. Well this weekend I was watching Brokeback Mountain with mom and got interested in Western styles. Fringes, bead work, and cowboy boots are definitely in for fall, so I merged my love for knitting and menswear to create this modern knit bolo tie. It's the perfect guy meets gal accessory, if you ask me :)

Thinking about Spring...
With these sudden changes of weather it's hard to let go of warm winter accessories yet. I think these cute and cozy knit necklaces are a nice transition into Spring. ^_^
What do you think of our new necklaces?

They will be offering "fabulous indie products, indie artist interviews, a comprehensive indie shop directory and much more."
I'm excited! It's important to support independent artists.

Very Short List
For all you intellectuals:
I just came across this really great site that posts daily must see finds. They feature entertainment and media that haven't really made it mainstream...but are quite gems.
Can't wait to get my hands on some of their recommendations!
