Whoever is happy will make others happy, too.

- Anne Frank

These are some of my bestest girlfriends.

They make me VERY, VERY happy.

Lovies, you know wh0 you are! ;)

You're Looking Fabulous Today!

Lately, I've been thinking about how there are so many different types of pretty.
If you look, you can find something beautiful in everyone.
I'm a big people watcher, it is one of my favorite things to do.
I also LOVE to compliment, i never feel stupid approaching a stranger and telling them i like their dress/ they have gorgeous hair or i just LOVE those shoes!
I was at Yankee stadium a few weeks ago and the girl in front of me was wearing a gorgeous lacy dress. Might sound fancy but it was casual enough for daytime.
I didn't think twice before asking where she bought it and telling her she looked great in it.
She smiled, I'm sure it made her day (or at least her hour).
I smiled, because i love seeing the joy that even a little, if superficial, compliment can give.

Men prefer brief praise, pitched high; women are satisfied with praise in a lower key, just so it goes on and on. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook

I'm going to make it my goal to give at least 3 genuine compliments a day.

Who's with me? ;)

Does Everybody Know What Time It Is?

No, it's not tool time.


It's GIVEAWAY time. Woot Woot!


I promised a giveaway upon reaching 50 followers; you have no idea how excited i get about a new follower, Rob gets a text update every time a new lovely lady is sweet enough to read my little blog! (i can't help it, i want people to like me! hehe)


To show how much i appreciate the few moments you spend each day reading about lilmissfina's life, here is my present to you :

Any single thing you want from any etsy shop!! ($25 & under please!)

I figured letting you choose your own gift is much more fun than getting whatever random item i choose. This way if you win, you can get that lil item you've had your eye on but haven't treated yourself too, I'll treat ya. Ya know i love to be nice ;).

Okie dokie so here's the deal yo (hehe)

- Blog about this giveaway & leave a comment w/ the link. This will get you 5 entries. I know it's annoying, but you'll have to leave 5 separate comments for this one. Perhaps you can write something silly & make me laugh with each one?

This giveaway is open until midnight (EST) of September 30th.

What are you waiting for?

GET ON IT! :)

This quote make's me think of another; "If you want to have a good friend, be a good friend."
