carmenmariah: I WANT! Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue… it smells like heaven. Seriously. But I’m too poor. Argggg! funny story about this perfume (which is lovely, by the by): my boyfriend matthew bought this for me for my birthday last year.  i am a staunch wearer of romance by ralph lauren, and am very picky about perfumes, so he was taking a big risk.  i opened the tester and smelled it, and it *did* smell good—but something was off. figuring i just needed to get used to it, i splashed a little on my wrists and on my neck.  the feeling of wrongness kept growing.  i sipped some wine and tried to ignore it—i did want perfume!  it does smell good!  what is wrong with me?? NOTHING, as it turned out a few moments later when i had a horrifying realization: THIS IS HIS MOTHER’S PERFUME.  yep, my boyfriend had gone to lord & taylor, smelled like 4,000 perfumes, and chose the one his mother wears.  on the reg.  i still haven’t decided if that sweet or creepy. needless to say, it went back to the store that saturday.
