dip dip dippin dot....

my crazy wonderful friends that i met in college gave me that wonderful nickname...dippin dot. i have no idea where it came from, or what started it, but to this day, those friends still call me that.  i think it went something like:
tiffany >> tippany >> dippany >> dip dip >> dipps >> dippin dot  [[um,we like ice cream??!?!!]]

yeah, my friends are definitely interesting, and i am truly blessed to have such great ones in my life...love you guys :]


anyway, if you have ever seen me in person, you know that i love to wear patterns...particularly stripes and polka dots.  i honestly did a load of laundry once of just things with stripes, and it almost filled the washing machine.  i don't know what it is, but i'm just drawn to stripes.  i feel the same way about polka dots.  i have at least 10 things in my closet with dots on them.  accessories, too.  so, i guess what i am trying to say is that my nickname is fitting. get it? ok, good.
sorry.
anyway, i was reading my blog list today and i saw the most amazing thing in the whole wide world....POLKA DOTS WERE FEATURED AS A NEW TREND!  now, mind you, i don't really care what VOGUE has to say about fashion, because i kind of just wear what i want to anyway, but i do look there for advice sometimes (i mean, honestly, what girl doesn't?).  well i just wanted to share that...here is the article and some other little ditties that i found while shopping online that i think that i must have.
