I didn't plan for this coincidence, it just sort of happened that way....anyways, I'm sure that no one's been too heartsick over it, since no one reads my blog anyways :)<br /><br />So here we go again. I'm going to try to stay on top of things and keep this blog going this time (and hopefully get some readers...) and I'm actually going to post those reviews I had promised forever ago, plus some new etsy finds and other obsessions of mine!<br /><br />So goodbye for now and I'll be back soon!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/752091945751403388-8295227006595328837?l=theredcrayonaristocrat.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Red Crayon Aristocrathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03534793689001618299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-752091945751403388.post-26836972741741840812010-02-24T13:26:00.000-08:002011-02-24T18:10:52.774-08:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XNaIO9eyoW8/S4Wa_huIPWI/AAAAAAAAACo/wbj374KBR_k/s1600-h/front.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 202px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441926140921396578" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_XNaIO9eyoW8/S4Wa_huIPWI/AAAAAAAAACo/wbj374KBR_k/s320/front.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XNaIO9eyoW8/S4Wa3BKgl0I/AAAAAAAAACg/mDU1H95mm0Y/s1600-h/back.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 290px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441925994743109442" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XNaIO9eyoW8/S4Wa3BKgl0I/AAAAAAAAACg/mDU1H95mm0Y/s320/back.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Check this out at <a href="http://www.happyseamstress.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">www.happyseamstress.com</span></a>.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> Isn't this the cutest vest you could EVER hope to wear whilst pounding away on the old SNES? haha, just kidding...

I'm looking back over previous entries in the AL forum and Kristen's blog and there is a lot of DRAMA. Not necessarily Kristen's fault (or anyone's for that matter!) or even anything more than a bunch of misunderstanding between people who are very passionate about their opinions....<br /><br /><br />But FUCK ME, this is some entertaining reading! My money's on Kristen, she's (unintentionally)amassed an online army of women who <3 her makeup, blogs, personality, etck. etck who will search you out and give you a piece of their mind if they don't like what you're saying about Kristen or Aromaleigh (bwahahahaha!)<br /><br />So I'm going to sit back and relax, waiting for the next bout of drama to fall into the lap of Ms. Bell and see what happens. This is what happens when you get a bunch of females together, hehe.<br /><br />P.S. Go try out the makeup at Aromaleigh.com. Super awesome. And if you're in the mood for some spicy controversy, just search for 'bad aromaleigh reviews' and read the heated 'discussions' (yeah, that's generous, I know!) between the pro-AL and anti-AL ladies!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/752091945751403388-6949463490840073409?l=theredcrayonaristocrat.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Red Crayon Aristocrathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03534793689001618299noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-752091945751403388.post-20903690731888929102010-02-18T10:40:00.000-08:002010-02-18T11:09:38.440-08:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XNaIO9eyoW8/S32Mtb7UXdI/AAAAAAAAACY/MLLJJ_uCNtM/s1600-h/il_430xN_115585799.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;
