Weekend Signoff :)

(Hello! So happy to be back home. Thank you so much for your lovely comments wishing me a good trip. Looking forward to tonight's Alicia Keys concert and getting caught up on visiting your blogs & reconnecting with you (readers and followers of this blog), in addition to preparing posts to resume on Monday. Have a great, great weekend! Source, Fashion Gone Rogue. {p.s. present count is now an amazing 441 followers, up from 419 since February 15. Thank you and welcome to Simply Seductive!}

{Good Monday morning! I hope everyone spent a lovely weekend and Saint Valentine's Day... As I mentioned briefly last week, I will likely not be posting this week or next as I am on a work-related trip. I promise to come back with lots of inspiration to make up for my absence. Take care {p.s. welcome NEW followers... Wow! 419, up from 394 on February 5, 2010. Thank you!}

I should advise you that I will be on a two week work-related trip as of next week, so blogging may be put on hold... will you wait for me?}
