OK, just so you guys know, my birthday was a few months back. But, not unlike our favorite Miss Sword, I, too, received a wirthday gift! I had been lusting after this particular pair of somethings for what felt like FOREVER, and my dear, sweet Mr. A somehow picked up on it. Needless to say, when I opened up my present from him on my birthday, I was elated with what was inside!!! Need me to give you a hint?
ZOMG!
Still don’t have a guess? OK, I’ll cave!
That’s right!!!! Mr. A got us (me) the Darling Point champagne saucers by Kate Spade!
Although we won’t be having champagne at the reception, I seriously can’t wait to drink sangria out of these saucers and toast with Mr. A as “Mr. and Mrs.”! I think they’ll make for some awesome photo-ops at the reception, and I can totally foresee breaking these babies out every year on our anniversary and reliving the magic! And plus, Kate Spade stuff is just totally adorable.
And just because I’m a crazy Kate Spade internet stalker, look at this hilarious gem I found a few days ago! I feel like I should just get it for kicks and giggles:

Did anyone else out there lust after a totally unnecessary wedding-related item? (And is anyone else oddly fascinated by Kate Spade’s creepy, bleeding armadillo purse?)
Cute champagne flutes! And as for the armadillo purse … dooooo ittttt!
ooh pretty! (and because I’m nosy, I have to know what’s inside the tiffany box! you can’t hold out on us like this!)
We have those same coupes! They were our first wedding gift– and Andrew picked them :0)
bahaha the armadillo! she has some wacky stuff…i almost bought the “emma” book purse (my real name) – http://www.katespade.com/emma-book-clutch/PXRU2420-1,default,pd.html – even though it was totally absurd. but i LOVE your glasses! that’s my fave silhouette and even though you dont have cham for the wedding, you’ll be able to use them for anniversaries and stuff too!
Yay! I love those saucers! I could not find them anywhere when we registered! We got the toasting flutes, which I LOVE, but I love yours too!! What a great gift!
Those saucers are so fab, Mr. A did a great job! Also, please, please buy that armadillo bag, that is just too perfect.
love those! we had ks toasting flutes as well, and i adore them!
EEEK, another wirthday gift!! Yay, I love Kate Spade. And that armadillo bag is a must. 
朋友给我一首诗，说是从一个刊物上抄下来的，让我欣赏。作为一名文学爱好者，我对诗歌还是情有独钟，便拿来细细品读。读了一遍，未解其意，再读，仍不知所云。我揉揉眼睛，又读数遍，还是欣赏不了。我说，我的欣赏水平有限，能否给我点拨一
What a great gift…and loooooove the purse! That would be a hit in Dallas!
Haha I actually have an armadillo purse! It’s stuffed, not real, but it was an awesome find at Goodwill last year.
Get outta here. Who thinks to make an armadillo purse?! You have to get it! Love the glasses btw.
OMG, you need to get the armadillo!!!
And I love the glasses XD
I feel like the purse is slightly odd but it’s almost like you have to have it!
Oh my gosh that armadillo purse is adorable! A great birthday present for you with those glasses!
Mrs. Armadillo, Houston, Texas Age and Occupation: 23, Graduate Student Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Armed Security Officer Engagement Date: September 28, 2011 Wedding Date: March 2013 Venue: First Presbyterian Church/Bay City Civic Center About Me: I’m an oldies-loving, board game-playing, coffee addicted fine arts junkie from Southeast Texas in pursuit of her master’s degree in communication studies who met the goofy, strong, artistic, and unexpected love of her life in the beautiful piney woods of East Texas. Serendipity threw us together again and again (and again) on our college campus before we eventually stuck, but when we finally did submit to destiny, we hit the ground running and never looked back! We’re planning a religious, small town, budget-friendly, DIY-infused “winter becomes springtime” ceremony and reception to celebrate the beginning of our lives together with the people we love the most, and are pouring our hearts and souls into making sure our wedding represents us as a couple down to the nitty gritty details and balances tradition with the quirky individuality that is uniquely and unequivocally “us”!
