Yay Summer Vacation!

(Kanye inspired? I was amazed when I saw these glasses today, what purpose do these serve? Horrid tan lines is my first though. I tryed them on, just for fun, and honestly I would have tripped if I tryed walking in these haha)


(Some Lovely Judith Leiber sunnys.. I want =( )

(Lovely spring weather right?)
(Camera shifted slightly, blue sky, whats up weather?)

It is amazingly hard to believe its officially summer vacation. Since this is my first year out of highschool, it seems very odd to join those college kids I was jealous of for getting out so much earlier. I breathe a huge sigh of relief now that Im done with exams, one I found fairly easy.. todays fairly hard.. But, they're over with so either way so it feels good!

To celebrate I went out for dinner. Next stop was the army and navy shoe sale, which had SO many shoes, I piled up a basket nicely, making my arm incredibly sore, is it not awkward to carry a super heavy basket? Not to mention bumping into those people who refuse to move. Sadly none of the shoe I chose fit, very dissapointing, and I felt pretty bad when the cute worker offered to put them all back, but he reassured me that he had seen much worse. After this fight through the shoes I realized how many people dont obey the obvious shopping rules. For me, these are a couple of thing that are on my list.
1. When someone is looking at a section of clothing, you do not go right beside them and push the items toward them. Seriously I hate when I have my little cleared space and someone comes right up and pushes it all together again, so rude!
2. If the aisles are tight, let people past who want by, do not just stand there like a blimp please. This happened to me today, A lady was trying on shoes right in the middle of this tingy aisle, and the store even had this nice little section of set up chairs for people to try stuff on!
Anyways... Next stop Walmart, I had to load up on a few essentials.. Shampoo, hangers, those awesome shavers that dont require shaving cream =D <333

Also this morning I tagged along with my mom to her eye appointment. Boredly waiting I decided to try on sunglasses, and Oh My did I find some amazinglyyyy lust worthy glasses. Too bad im not going to spend $1300 on them =( I wish I could find a picture of the ones I saw, but I can't find one, they were dark blue frames, with *amazing* side detail, as are most Judith Leiber sunnys. One last rant, the weather man was right; snow, wind, sleet, rain, freezing cold!? It looked like death today, We've been breaking records with this awful weather, I want summer!
I know this post was incredibly long, but lot's seemed to have happened today haha. So, what are some of your shopping rules, or pet peeves?

The Mansy

Normally, Im really open to different style ideas, and like to see people try new things. But in this case, all I did was have a good burst of inside laughter as I flipped through an unremembered magazine. I seriously hope I never see a man wearing this, Im afraid I could possibly be more scarred then when I saw a man with dangly nipple rings running with a thong pulled up much too high to be comfortable. I usually find lululemons items to be quite tasteful workout wear, however there is an exception for everything, seriously.. what where they thinking when they created this? Im afraid to see the back..
Oh yeah and the stupid weatherman is calling for snow this weekend.. seriously what is wrong with the weather!? I want springg!!
Anyways what are your guys thoughts on "the mansy," yes thats what its actually called haha

Joining the Army

The Army and Navy shoe sale that is =) It's one of those sales that gets pretty chaotic, shoes everywhere and people fighting to get the best ones first. Luckily I think they bring out new rounds of shoes every couple of hours or so. However, Im going to try not to buy unless theres something I really love, because lately Ive been going a little shoe crazy. Last year I got this really cute pair of bcbg heels, for only $30, and I think they were originially around $100 or more. Those are the kind of deals I just cant resist. I'll probably hit it this weekend, after Im free of having these exams looming over my head, making me feel too guilty to go shopping right now. If I buy anything I will try to post some piks, even if it is just with my cell phone camera. Back to studying now =(

Tie That Belt

(Alexander Wang, Spring.08)


(All 3, D&G Spring.08)
(Rumi of Fashion Toast)

It seems everywhere I look belts are getting tied instead of buckled, its really been growing on me, especially after I saw Fashion Toast's Rumi wear it so well, so I think one day soon I'll have to try it out. What really bothers me is I have these two belts I found on sale last year for under $5 and I cant find them! Nothing is worse than that, Oh well I'll try again soon. So what do you guys think of the belt tie?

The Closet.. dun dun dun!

Yeahh, I cleaned out my closet and room etc. I know I said I would do this like 3 weeks ago, but I finally got to it today. Im pretty much the worlds biggest procrastinator when it comes to this type of thing. I went through all my drawers and closet for a MUCH need cleanout/organization. It took me an approx exhausting 2 hours or so. Oh well now its done, the hardest part is going to be keeping it that way. My cat decided to help me out as well, after I went back to my drawer, I realized she had decided to take a nap on my nicely folded clothes, note to self not to leave the drawers open anymore. Now Im going to have to de-fur them all, but you cant stay mad when shes pulling that "puss-in-boots" look.
And yeah it rained today.. sadly the weather people are always right when it comes to predicting the bad things. I might be a little slow on blogging this coming week, because I really need to force myself into exam studying, but after this friday Im freeee, free, free =D

I encourage all you other fellow procrastinator's to fix up your closet as well, spring cleaning, yayy

Sunny, Sunny days!



(I look like Im really intently staring at something.. but Im not lol)
(Mm cotton candy.. even though I kinda look like Im kissing it, haha)

(I know these last two are like the same, but the bg's were just so pretty plus the yellow bag is displayed nicely =) )

Yay! for once in a million years the weather people were almost totally right, there was a bit of cloudy haze at some points of the day, but other than that it was nice and warm. So of course I had to hit as many outdoor places as possible, I spent most of the day at a couple lovely beaches. Had some fish and chips, starbucks caramel frapp, although they forgot the caramel on top? uh yeah. And of course icecreamm =) Mm, cotton candy, it was a tough decision between that and bubble gum, yes, I love the little kid flavours okay. So I did take some photos, but they are probably 1/10th the quality they should be, but I took them with my cell phone, because I still cant fix my other camera.

The debut of the summery yellow bag =D So yellow and buttery.. got it at Winners
Jacket:H&M (I absolutely loveee this jacket, the buttons and the exposed sleeve zippers <333)
Top:UO,Jeans:A&F(these are litterally my first destroyed anything, but Im really liking them this season, hence photo below)Flats:Old Navyy,Flip Flops: Havaianas(Had to switch cause I got blisters :( )Necklace:H&M,Rings:Aldo Acc and Little local boutique.
I had to paint my nails a summery color too haha, yes I got very excited for this sunny day, It's chanel in Splendeur.
Sadly it's supposed to go back to rain tommorow..v_v Also this is my first actual semi-decent photo post, yayy, so what do you guys think of my little outing?

Diet Officially Off


(Julia Dunstall)
Yes thats right, one store did me in today, and I spent, but up untill today my spending diet was going quite well. Took a quick peak into old navy and I bought these sandals, they look much better on than in the picture however. I also bought this brown necklace thing that ties, it was 50% off, Yayy! I couldnt find a picture of it though. I also got an additional 15% off from this code thing. Gotta love precents off =) The second photo I just love, it really puts me in the summer set of mind, going to be taking that into some inspirational account while shopping for more spring items. There was actually a ton of spring clothes I thought were cute from Alexander Wang S-08. But thats a whole other post.

Im also counting down things to do tommorow, the weather people are still sticking by the 21 celcius thing, so they better be right because they gotten me all excited!
More good news school classes are officially overr! Now I just have to make it through the exams. My fingers are crossed =D Im going to work hard on fixing the camera tonight too, because I reallly want to take pictures tommorow since its going to be so pretty. Also Im going to sleep super early tonight, even if it is a Friday, Im totally exhausted.

Sunnys





Well, I hear that we actually have a sunny day on the way, with an estimated whopping 21 celcius, I know shocking it really is. I find it funny how just another province away they got 26cm of snow today, hehe. No really, I do feel bad for them. Anyways this thought of sun has really made me think that I only have 2 pairs of scruffed up sunnys =O horrible I know, but my other pair broke on me! Originally I had been thinking I might buy a pair of nicer sunglasses, and then a couple more cheaper ones. So this is what I found, tell me what you think. Oh yeah and I decided soon to go check out some contacts, because its really hard to wear sunnys + glasses, yeah I was that dork last summer =( I just hope I can handle them, Ive never really been one for touching my eyes. Okay so I seem to have lost most of the cheap sunglasses, but help me out with the MbyMJ's =) (Im kinda "ify" on white) oh yeah and the first pair are from UO.

Blah Blah

I know I've been slacking on posts, but I really have nothing special to blog about. Ive been doing a lot of school work since the school year is almost done.. yayy.. and then work. Also Ive been doing well on my spending diet, which means no new purchases to share. I did find a thrift store advertised though that looks super promising, Im hoping to check that out within the next week or so. Still working on my stupid camera too, and then hopefully I can get some outfit posts happening.
So check back soon and I seriously hope for something more interesting =D

Inspiration photos of the week (again?)

(Just hoping that fur is faux)
(Pale people gotta stick together)
(Miranda Kerr, Just so simple and cute)

Sorry about lack of posts, I almost didnt make one again today. It's been a tiring weekend, including a trip to school on a saturday, yeah nothing gets much worse than that. But school IS almost done, so thats pretty much the only thing keeping me going. Anyways I dont have anything to special to blog about today, however I do have a more couple inspirational photos, even though I think I blogged with some other inspiration photos this week.. oh well haha. Oh yeah I also ended up returning two out of the three pairs of shoes I splurged on, the grey boots and first pair of heels down below. I just feel like I should save up a little since there like 50 other "to buy" items on my list.

Please feel free to comment too guys, I love getting to read your thoughts and opinions =D
Anyways Im off to sleep so night night =)

Overpriced Cravings of the Day


Since I search through so many different websites each night, I of course come across items which will only happen in my dreams, or if I perhaps win the lottery. These are my favorite of the day.. or maybe week. Ever since I saw those Derek Lam ankle boots featured on style.com Ive been in love, the color, the little buckles, oh so cute. This L.A.M.B bag Ive also been eyeing up for awhile now, this is definitely one of my fave colors for spring, Ive actually been looking for a similar colored bag but (cheaper) anyways after a couple months of no luck, I decided to go with a cute yellow bag I found instead.

Wearing Your Vitamins







Since it was kind of sunny today, it completely excited me for the hope that summer is on its way, even though it doesnt feel like it, the sun just makes me feel excited. It made me think of my favorite summer things, a lot of that includes food items, but I also love going to the beach and getting to wear cute bathing suits, or summery clothes. I definitely love Vitamin A suits, these were some of my favorites that I found recently. They are pretty pricey, but I bought one last year and got it on sale for only about $60 (both top and bottom) originally priced at $140, mine is a pretty tourqoisey color, slightly darker than the tourqoise in these ones. Now if only I could be as tanned as this model..haha =(

Guilty as Charged

Yeahh, that's me guilty of spending wayy to much when Im supposed to be on a "spending" diet. But what I found was just all too cute, I couldn't resist. I did however end up returning the grey boots and Im going to return the black heels tommorow, I do like them but I need to somewhat compensate for what I did today, because yeah Im feeling pretty guilty. So since I still can't take pictures Im just going to have to describe what I bought today. First stop was to Winners, my weakness, I needed some new gym/work-out clothes, so I bought:
-Dark grey Adidas athletic pants
-Brown Adida capris
-Navy blue with tourqoisey striped sided Adida shorts
-Two nike tops, one torqoisey(to match) and one bright pink, usually Im soo not a bright pink person, but this matched well with the brown and grey pants.
I just realized too that all the athletic bottoms I bought were adidas..
Anyways I also bought two bags, there was this darkish red bag with fringes on sale for only 16.00, it was such a good deal, and I cant resist good deals. I almost made it out the door but then I stumbled across a lovellyy yellow leather bag, my biggest splurge of the day. Ive been wanting a more seafoamy green purse for spring, but since I havent found one yet, yellow was my 2nd choice and it was just so amazing. Next stop H&M:
-Very dark (almost black) navy blue vest, with tiny, not very visible stripes
-Navy blue military style jacket, I guess you could call it military, anyways this was probably my most fave purchase of the day. Its navy blue with gold buttons on the front, and exposed gold zippers on the sleeves. Soo cute
-Pink/Yellow and white scarf, also a little bit of silvery sparkles mixed in.
-Black and gold, fairly simple long necklace

Id really love love to get some pictures happening on here but I still cant figure out how to fix my stupid camera, its saying Files errors if anyone knows how to fix that =( So for now I'll just have to stick to descriptions.
Off to study now, big test tommorow..dun dun dun..

Natural Beauty





I found these fabulous photos on supermodel.nl. The model is Elena Melnik and photographer Marcus Mam. I love how frogs and owls can look so amazingly awesome! I want them right now =) The flower necklace is also gorgeous, I imagine all of these pieces are beyond my spending reach but still, one can dream. The model plus her make-up also look amazing.

Tommorow Im finally going to H&M, Yayy, hopefully I can find some good purchases =D Anyways I posted earlier today because unfortunately I will be studying for a test the next few evenings. I really cannot wait for school to be done.. three more weeks, let the countdown begin! Oh yeah I "made" a new header as well, it's actually just a picture I took.. but I might still try to attempt making a more complex one haha. Please remember to check out my boot post from a few days ago, still trying to decide.
