Permanent Vacation

Get your fall fashion fix with the new autumn/winter 08 collection from Permanent Vacation. Right away I love the name - Permanent Vacation (yes please!) - and those lovely photographs in the background.

Their fashion statement is brilliant too - "Tired of all impractical pretensions in fashion today, Permanent Vacation is inspired by the classic gentleman's way of dressing; dapper, shapely, comfortable and useful, garments aimed to love, wear out and repair." I'm sold!

On a side note, thanks for your mascara recommendations. Yesterday I went to the dangerous Ulta, and since I needed something quick I went for the "pink and green." I'm also excited to try out some of the luxurious ones. I used to hate mascara - it would always rub or flake all over my face. But, when I became "corporate professional" I felt it was time to apply. Months of eye poking and smeared clumps...I'm finally getting the hang of it.

I also picked up some Badger Stress Soothing Balm, which was recommended by Holly for stress relief. I like the idea of it, and the smell is very subtle for everyday use. What can I say...I'm a sucker for products, especially pretty ones.

  1. we talk about having permanency - for immigration of course and jobs as there are so many contractors - Luckily I have a permanent job. Permanent Vacation sounds like just the thing most of us need. I really want to take time off so that I can just lounge around at home and read as many blogs as I want. very modest wish I think.
