  27. fun tag :)
    1) YSL Parisienne
    2) I don't think I have one, I'd have to think about it some more.
    3) Paris, of course!
    4) I'd say my 16th. I just had a few friends over and we hung out, and since it wasn't such a big production it was so much easier to enjoy.
    5) I'm not much of a cook. I'm know in my family for being the best at microwaving popcorn, talented, I know.
