Skype offers free airport WiFi for the holidays | TG Daily
I absolutely LOVE free wi-fi deals around the holidays so this is very cool for me, especially since part of my holiday will be spent in an airport! Last year, Google made a similar (but even better) offer for free wi-fi that included in-flight connections. on AirTran, Delta and Virgin American. That was the greatest!

2011 Christmas Wish List
This year has been such a rough year, my Christmas spirit has been less than “cheery”. My parents have been asking for my list for weeks and I just couldn’t seem to come up with anything good. Recently, I looked through the Nordstrom Holiday catalogs and came across the awesome items listed below. Most of them won’t fit in my parent’s ideal shopping budget for me (LOL) but they’re fun items to dream about…
Yves Saint Laurent Large Satchel
Prada 'Baroque' Round Sunglasses
Valentino 'Rockstud' Open Toe Pump
MICHELE 'Cloette Fleur' Diamond & Mother-of-Pearl Watch Case
Michael Kors 'Gia' Ostrich Embossed Clutch
Vera Wang Lavender 'Sammy' Peep Toe Pump
Lagos Diamond & Caviar™ Station Bracelet
MARC JACOBS Zip Clutch Wallet
MARC BY MARC JACOBS 'Petal to the Metal' Zip Clutch Wallet
Echo 'Touch' Tech Gloves
Burberry Brit Trench Coat
UGG® Australia 'Ansley' Slipper (Women)
…and last but not least…. this Gilt/Jetsetter week long cooking excursion in Italy would totally make my year!
That’s about all I can come up with… It’s a sad day when a fashionista isn’t moved by shiny dresses and sparkly heels. I gotta get outta this funk soon! But enough about me… So what’s on your designer Christmas wish list???

The Usual ComeUp – Nordstrom Rack
Well, my luck has struck again…
Found this beauty in Nordstrom Rack – Oak Brook, IL. A beautiful Diane von Furstenberg Kipling dress (my first by the illustrious designed whom I’ve admired for so long). The dress is on sale for only $269.50 at her website… but the “slightly altered” version I got from the Rack cost me only $89 (plus Chicago’s crazy high tax, but even still…) I tried it on with a belt and my black Burberry pumps and it looks amazing!
I can’t wait to wear it… I just need to find a cool place to go!
