It's time for my five favorite's of the week!
1.-Miranda Lambert's new album Four the Record
I bet you knew this was coming! Of course I love it! I won't try to summarize, I'll just say it's amazing. The best review that most accurately covers what I would say can be read here.
Buy her new album at Amazon or iTunes. (I recommend getting the deluxe version hard copy because it comes with a bonus song and DVD! And she's wearing Stella & Dot on the DVD, FYI!)
2.-Twitter
Okay, it has been a crazy few weeks for me on Twitter. In the past few weeks I have been tweeted by HGTV (more than once), HGTV staffers, Rachel Ashwell, Junk Gypsy (regularly), Target, DirecTV, Josh Abbott (twice), Rich O'Toole, Hillary Kerr, the editor of my favorite fashion website WHO WHAT WEAR, (aka my morning newspaper,) and then by the site director of Marie Claire magazine! Oh and while I'm looking these up to refresh my memory I see that someone who works for Pinterest tweeted me after I complained about the iPhone app. (Didn't even notice that one!)
The crazy thing is, sometimes I just mention their name or company, and they somehow find my tweet and respond, even though I didn't @ direct it to their account. (For those who don't know twitter, you get a message when someone puts @ before your account name.) The funniest example was Rich O'Toole, one of my favorite Texas Country artists. I was telling my friend Courtney via Twitter about how I finally "unfollowed" Rich O'Toole's tweets because they were so annoying. I didn't @ link to him, just typed his name. Within five minutes, Rich tweets to his 3,078 follows that "Everyone should follow these two beautiful ladies" with me and Courtney's twitter accounts on there! I was so mortified that he saw the rude thing I said about him! So crazy. So if you are on Twitter, don't think that people don't see your @ mentions, or even just plain ole mentions!
3.-My Erin Condren Life Planner
This is the mother of all planners, and it's going to keep me super organized all the way through 2012! I got the ZTA version because I had a coupon code for the sorority collection, but it has all sorts of adorable customizing options. Check it out!
4.-Cooler Weather
Thank goodness it's finally cooling off! And I bought this adorable coat for 50% off on asos.com this weekend! I'm obsessed!
5.-Spotify
I don't know how I'm just finding out about this, but it's awesome. It's like Pandora, except you can pick specific songs or even albums to play. I'm busting out all my old school favorites from when I was a kid like Mariah Carey, No Doubt, and Everclear. The best part was that Miranda's new album with the bonus track was on there the day it came out! Thankfully because the stupid Wal-Mart here didn't have it out when I went that morning. Spotify saved me from having a crappy day. Love it! If you don't have this on your desktop yet, get it! It's free with just a few commercial breaks, but I think you have to pay to use it on your iPhone.
