Inspiration for "Opulence"

So I never thought I would be one to blog, although I did always see the appeal. You can create your own little world where you actually feel like people really give a damn about what you have to say. I can dig it. However, my true inspiration came from my friend who started a blog (this must be a cliche' by now) called "The Art of Frugality". We have talked in depth about her ideas to save money by creative means (many of which I brutally rebuffed, sorry...) but turns out, it quite an interesting read. This got me thinking, perhaps I should start a blog honoring those primal desires of ours (despite her new found appreciation for frugality, she too is an Opoholic) while paying homage to all the things we wish we could have, but can't while offering some tips on how to mimic the fabulosity, or find it for less. So, thank you Kari, for inspiring me to be proactive and not just shit on other people's ideas. Link to her blog to follow.
