Since this year is coming to a close, I thought, why not share 20 of my favorite things from 2012. I think that's random, don't you? I had a tough little time picking my 20 categories. I could have easily posted 100 things, but we all know that wouldn't have gotten read. So, I hope you stick around and peruse the ones that I thought would tickle your fancy most.
We will start with things from this outfit if that's okay with you.
Shall we begin?
1. Shoes: The ones in these pictures. Thank you Sole Society for bringing t-strap, heels and studs together. What a brilliant combination.
2. Jewelry: I am always down for a good party, so I have to go with arm parties. Spikes, bangles, leather, studs and paves...oh, my!
3. Accessory: Scarves, duh? This fur one is my new BFF.
4. Clothing Item: This Lauren Conrad top I am wearing. I have worn it more than anything in my closet.
5. FashionTrend: Pattern mixing, chambray and plaid. I couldn't just pick one. Gotta include my least faves too...Wedge Sneakers and Peplum. Go away!!!!!
6. Home Decor Trend: Antlers. Finally, after all these years deer horns are the shizz. Ross is one happy fella!
7. Place to shop: Forever 21, Old Navy and Target. Does this surprise you?
8. Cosmetic(s): Bare Minerals Foundation, Cover Girl Lash Blast 24 Hr., Urban Decay Naked Palettes, Sexy Mother Plucker Lip Gloss and all the "CHEAP-A" e.l.f. products at Tar-jay!!!!
9. Album: Florence and the Machine - Ceremonials
10. Concert: Taylor Swift
11. Trip: It was more like a stay-cation for Ross and I's anniversary. See what we did here.
12. Movie: Hunger Games and Brave
13. T.V. Show: X Factor and Wheel of Fortune. Being on the "Wheel" is my DREAM!!!!
14. Social Media: Instagram. Pictures say a 1,000 words.
15. iPhone App: Picfx because I love dazzlin' and sparklin' up my Instagram pics
16. Way to unwind: Pedicures, wine, hot baths, wine, shopping, wine, listening to music, wine and reading blogs.
19. Blog Faux Pas: WTH was I thinking???? Check this out.
20. Blog Memory: Watching Dusty open her Hunter Boots from the Evil 7. I have watched it two dozen times and cried every time.
So, there ya go. Anyone agree with me? Disagree? I would love to see a post of your 20 favorite things from 2012. I challenge you because, well, I am Nosy Nelly.

I'm LOVING the shoes with those jeans. So cuuute!
Oh my gosh, I don't even know Dusty but I feel like I want to... and then I cried at my desk just now watching her love those boots. That is the coolest thing. Shanna, I always knew you were such a fantastic person but that was just the sweetest thing ever. <3
Also, love that outfit! I feel like I need those jeans.
Those shoes are rocking my world!! I think they're Valentino inspired!
I am so in love with those shoes. The simple fabulousness of the outfit is amazing and those shoes just bring something extra. LOVE. Now I really want them... darn it!

Love this outfit - you look gorgeous! I have to agree that the Bozo look was not your best moment. As for music, Ceremonials was one of my faves for 2011 AND 2012! x
what a great idea for a post - would love to do something similar for end of the year... i love the fur scarf too! and thanks for hosting this party!!
LOVE this outfit!! That top is super pretty! And I'd have to agree on favorite places to shop. Seriously, will I ever NOT shop at Forever 21?... I think the answer is no. That place has my heart. haha
Happy Wednesday!

In LOVE with your shoes!!!!!!

I love the outfit! I was a little scared of the scarf at first but since I know it's faux I love it hehe!
I never know if I can link up with ya. What exactly does the subject have to be? Like whatever I post on Wednesdays or a bunch of random stuff only?
ANTLERS! Love. And Florence! And the Hunter Boots video! I should watch it today to remind me how good people can be.
I actually linked up this week but if my post wasn't appropriate for the linkup let me know!
Shanna, seriously, I just love reading your blog. Your outfit fav posts were totally some of my favorites, especially that chevron dress, swooon!! and I think the "He loves me even though" is one of my favorite posts of yours ever.
Cheers to 2012!! It's been a good year!
Eek! Always so beautiful and adorable at the same time! I must get myself one of those blazers!!
Completely agree with all of your faves! Love the naked palettes :)
Love what you did with the scarf, so cute!
Love your Picture & this Link Up.
Newest Follower, Hope to learn more about you.
Happy Holidays
Ok, this outfit = perfection. I'm gonna have to make my way to Kohls, every Lauren Conrad item I've seen I've loved!
Bahaha, why ever would you not like wedge sneakers?! ;) Love this list, I might have to "borrow" from you, I want to do it too! :)
I totes would have done a favorites list has I known! you look fabulous as always, I love those heels LOVE THEM.
xx
so i just watched that video of your friend opening the hunter boots and i seriously cried! that is amazing!!!! holy moly!! i love it!! how have i not seen that before?! also, you are beautiful, inside and out.
I love your outfit! I bought the same heels in pink and was not in love with them and returned them. Debating if I should pick them up in the black. Love the Valentino vibe of these heels.

Obsessed with this outfit!!!! Your fur scarf and shoes are beyond amazing. You look gorgeous lady! Love you!!
xo,

This is a fave (once again, ha!:) Classy and sassy!
Gosh, this scarf is fab!!
Oh my...so glad I stopped over from the Pleated Poppy. You're rockin' that scarf, I love Lauren Conrad, Hunger Games...and a lot of other things you shared. Just read your Howdy Y'all and saw your love for Jesus Christ...yup, join your site. Glad to have stopped by! =)
I just went and watched that video - omg. she is adorable. and you guys are so sweet to have done that for her!
now back to this outfit. I think it may just be my favorite one of yours of all time. I wasn't sure how I felt about that fur bow wrap thing but now...i want it around my neck. I love the classic look of this but with edgy pieces.
Plus your new hair: amazing.
I'm sad that I didn't get to link up this week, but I love this post! The blog faux pas made me laugh (and I still love that you were able to graciously accept my comment on that one!) and your favorite outfits are all excellence picks!
