what lauren wants.

What Lauren Wants….
Someone to DIY me a bib necklace as cute as this.  
I guess it’s not really DIY if someone else does it though. 
 No matter.

The guts to wear this.  
Not just in my room.
In public.

Craig to take me to see Cirque de Soleil.
It’s in town.
Pleeeease Craig?

A pedicure.

These shoes to show it off.
Too bad they’re sold out of this color.
Everywhere :(.
I’ve never wanted any shoe this badly.


Hair like this
(slash)
to just look like Zooey in general.

A styling job.
Where I could put together 
lovely little vignettes like this all day.
And I’d actually like to do it 
with the lovely ladies of 
&
who shot  and styled this.
They’re pretty fabulous.

An entire pan of little
 chocolate banana bread puddings….
all to myself.
(here’s the recipe!)

To be as hot as Eva…. 
(*side note: total girl crush)
and still be able to eat that entire pan of sweets.

Oh….and also for this week to hurry up and be over already!
Hope Thursday flies by 
for you guys….and me!

  20. Ah Zooey…she’s so cute and quirky. Love her.

    I like your list…I was thinking of doing a “wants” list myself of things I need (want) to update my summer wardrobe.

  21. You can get the job, if you go out and search for one!

  22. Lauren! Thank you so much for the incredible shout out!! You are so lovely! 🙂

    I TOTALLY have girl crushes on Zooey & Eva! I met Zooey a few months ago & it was such an exciting day! hehe 😉

    That bib necklace is SO very cute!! xo

  23. :: sigh ::
    Me too, sista, me too.

  24. This is a great list. I’ve been wanting to make a bib necklace, maybe I’ll make you one. What are your favorite colors?

  25. I loved the last one! 🙂

  26. *wistful sigh* @ the Eva Mendes shot. She makes it look soooo easy. With one exception (it’s tough 4 most any woman to eat sweets galore & look like Eva) you have a great shot at getting all the things you want. Make it Happen!

  27. i want all of zooey’s clothes. and i want them to look as good on me as they do on her.

  28. those shoes are fabulous, and they have a bib necklace like that connected to a tank top that you can easily take it out of over at target. check it out. you’re beautiful. xoxox

  29. I may take a stab at making that necklace…I’m guessing all it takes are buttons, hot glue, ribbon and a piece of fabric.

    I’m totally making those puddings…they look amazing!

    PS:Girls trip to Seattle. Lets do it! For real.

  30. Decline all other offers, I’m going to make you a bib necklace!

    I LOVE that outfit. I get sort of shy about wearing different styles because this town of mine is UBER conservative, but I’ve really been wanting to pull off the shorts and tights look!

    Oh, and by the way, you’re so much prettier than Zoey. Seriously.

    I hope you have a good rest of the day! XOXOXO

  31. What a great list!! And, I pretty much smiled ear to ear when I saw the banana bread pudding… oh my. DELICIOUS. Sweet hugs to you Lauren. XO

  32. oh zooey is beyond beautiful! i love that nail colour and those shoes 🙂

  33. dear lauren.

    I came across your blog after melanie linked it from you are my fave.

    You had me at “what lauren wants”.

    THANK YOU FOR BLOGGING. 😀

  34. so i just want to say THANK YOU for the awesome shout out you gave erin and i! we totally love this! 🙂 it means so much to us! you totally rock girl!

  35. Very interesting post and.. nothing wrong with wearing such outfits out in public. Well being in NY, it is something i see on a daily basis.

  36. Love this post! That bib necklace is gorgeous, as are the shoes. Hope you find them! And Eva’s my girl — she’s Cuban-American, just like me. 🙂

  37. i hope craig takes you to cirque. i’ve been to a few, it’s really great! totally worth the $$$.

  38. i love this list! seriously need zooey’s wardrobe and hair! plus that banana pudding recipe looks wonderful!

    i hope your day went by quickly!

  39. ooh, love that bib and the table setting!

  40. I wouldn’t mind having Zooey’s hair for at least one week. 😀

  41. ohhhh! I have that nail color! I love it – it just sings spring and summer to me!
    Thanks for the recipe – totally making those this weekend…even though I’m supposed to be off sugar in preparation for 5 days of bikini-wearin…

  42. The title made the song “what a girl wants” start running through my head! haha I want to try that recipe.. yum! Super cute shoes!!

  43. I am on the fence in regards to bib necklaces…a little too handmade for me. Maybe it’s because they’re called bib necklaces. On the other hand, I do love that outfit in the second picture, especially the boots!

    I think I’ll have a go at making those chocolate and banana bread puddings – our house seems to be teeming with bananas and there is many months old bread in the freezer!
