10 Things I Can’t Live Without…

My inspiration for today’s post came from one of my new favorite blogs Sacramento Street. She did a post about the 10 things that make her happy, and I started thinking about all of the things that make me happy. I went for the material happy today as opposed to getting down to what really matters in life, maybe another day, but its Friday so I thought it we would have a little fun.  These aren’t in order of importance because I couldn’t possibly begin to rank my items of happy, so don’t get all feisty about the numbering! Now that we have that cleared up lets look shall we!





  
1. Mac Products. I have a relationship with my computer and phone. More addiction than relationship.
2. Bond No. 9. Nuits de Noho.  It is my stink. I love it. I believe all ladies should have one signature smell, and this is mine. 3. Martha Stewart Weddings. I have had a subscription since Jesus was a small child. I love weddings, and we all know this. Its been planned for years. I can tweak it if I must, but I won’t be a happy kitty. 4. Pearls. I had the nickname of “Pearls” in High School. I wear them all them time. My dad calls me “Barbara Bush.” I was striving for more of a Jackie Kennedy Onassis, but I will take any first lady I can get… besides the current one. Don’t really fit that profile, and Babs is great. 5. Ralph Lauren. If I have to explain this one, you’re new to Perpetual Perfection. Catch up. 6. Beautiful Shoes. I chose these Christian Louboutin to represent my love for shoes. Classic, yet sassy. I like to think of myself as just that. I hope y’all agree. 7. Graphic Image Planner. I get a new one every year. Its my absolute favorite organizer. I love technology, but I stick to paper for my events. 8.White Wine. I’ve never had a bad night with my friend white wine. Therefore, it made the list. 9. Artichokes. So stinkin’ good. When I was a wee-tot I called them “little trees with leaves.” 10. Steel Magnolias. The movie is a classic, and without it I would not be complete. I grew up on this movie and the principles in it. My best friend and I are a younger version of our best friend mothers who claim to be ‘Ouiser and Clairee. I am the ‘Ouiser. She is the Clairee. 


What are 10 things that make you smile? Give me some feedback! I will even feature your 10 things… if I like them. 

Happy Weekend!
