New lemming list:

1. Digital camera: Tonight I am going to Best Buy to look at a Sony camera. It is called Cyber-shot 5.1 Megapixel digital camera. I hope to have a digital camera before my next NYC trip so I can post pictures of the beauty floors of Barneys and Bergdorf Goodman.
My promise to everyone: A picture of dear John Henry at SAKS.

2. Philosophy skin care:
I will cave either on the oxygen peel or the microdelivery peel. I am being inspired by Chattykathy. Her skin is beyond stunning.

3. I am going to take advantage of the Caron sale in december. I have no idea which one I will cave on. It might be Nuit de Noel. I also might cave on a Guerlain perfume. I have been threatening to whip out my bergdorf card on a guerlain parfum. The contenders for a place on my vanity are:
1. L'Heure Bleue
2. Mitsouko
3. Vol de Nuit
Please vote on a favorite to help with my decision process.

This will be my xmas/bday/surviving 2005 gift to myself.

4. A high tech makeup mirror

5. A shu palette

6. Hermes Ambre Narguile

7. low heeled boots

8. Hermes enamel bracelet(high end fantasy lemming)

9. electric blanket (I live in Ohio)

10. Interpol cds

Description from plumparty website:

"When the road to emotional stability seems full of speed bumps and potholes and you're longing for the wisdom of old Vienna, it's time to earn your own PhD degree in hydrotherapy. With each squeeze of the tube ask yourself: How do I feel about that? What can I do to change it? Infused with St. Johns Wart for an immediate mood lift and scented with magnolia this is a natural anti-depressant"
