I hope no one thinks I'm "gloating" (refer to a particular style poll) but I wanted to share my bday loot. It was on Saturday and here's what I got...
-A mid-size Polo suitcase (I already have the XL and S sizes)
-This print... let me explain. It's a reproduction of a Delta travel poster from the 1960s advertising and flying to Atlanta and commerating the 30th anniversary of Gone with the Wind. I lost an auction for an authentic one off ebay but my mom tracked down an reproduction and had it framed. It's got significance because I'm from Atlanta, I have a collection of Gone With the Wind memorabillia, and my grandfather ran the metorology department at Delta so my family's pretty loyal.
-Turq Jewelry necklace
-Lots of monogrammed stuff... a passport holder, beach bag, and stationary and labels (not pictured)
Now what I bought my self... if anyone is in Atlanta, they need to go to Fox's. It's the cutest discount place (a lot like Loehmann's). But wear cute underwear because the dressing room is communal
You can't tell in the photo, but the turq top is a corset and the dress is super cute and fitted, corset-like at the top
I hope no one thinks I'm "gloating" (refer to a particular style poll) but I wanted to share my bday loot.

I totally agree about the Fox's in Chicago. Everyone raves about this one and I'm not impressed.
Great stuff sfclinevandy - I love that turquoise top!
Showing off your birthday loot isn't gloating. Oh boy, how I wish I never said anything about gloating! Anyways, I want your suitcase and necklace! What a good birthday!
Happy birthday and congratulations on your new goodies! I am in Atlanta and am definitely going to have to check out Fox's - love what you got from there!
