LAST WEEK(s)

 Just a quick update of some recent purchases:

1. Ecote Faux Fur Bag from UO

2. Monsen 97 Booties by Jeffrey Campbell

3. current ring obsessions, all from F21

I'll hopefully be able to update this post with some pictures of me actually wearing them, but it'll have to be after exams.

 Freja reminds me, and many others, of Mick Jagger. Anything resembling the Rolling Stones is a definite plus!

 How can you not love Liu Wen?

 This.is.breathtaking. And considering Karlie Kloss is the same age as me.....oohhhh, depressing thoughts!

I cannot begin to express how much I love Lanvin's 2011 S/S collection! Just THE most amazing designs, what with the audaciously flowing skirts outlining the model's silhouette, the asymetrical knot tied lazily yet gracefully across shoulders and I love the huge, thick multiple-tied belt trend going on!

I don't know what Alber Elbaz is doing over there, but he has arguably and single handedly given Lanvin a rebirth! Just can't wait for his collection with H&M to hit stores!!

P.S- is anybody else noticing that Freja, Karlie and Liu Wen are in EVERYTHING?! It's like, it's not a proper show without this Golden Trio (or at least that's what I'm calling it)

criminals, after tonight

Justin Nozuka concert last saturday; was freakin amazing, he sounds better live than on his tracks! Plus, I've found a new obsession, his second opening act, called Sweet Thing. Sooo good! They sound like a cross between The Killers and Mika (picture is the second one from the top). Will be cyber stalking their music and tour dates. 

And to all the readers that go to MAC, remember that there's the very first Fashion Club meeting afterschool this thursday in room 124. Shameless self-promotion

mixed signals

Trying to do quicker updates now that i don't have any legitimate excuses not to. Sorry for the blurry pictures though; it's extremely hard to aim and shoot in the pitch dark. By the way, I want to make a clarification about the ring in the pictures: it is not a knuckle ring and I certainly didn't buy it so I would have an upperhand in a bitch fight. It's simply a triple finger ring, kinda like a double finger ring but for 3 fingers instead of two. Just wanted to make that clear because people have been asking if I've been in any fights recently...

the place where they treat you like a princess (supposedly)

Talula blazer, F21 shirt, Levis jeans, vintage belt, Ecote gladiators & MARC by Marc Jacobs shoulder bag.

Finally got around to actually doing something productive for extracurricular activities! Met up with a friend at Cafe Princess, this Korean version of Starbucks place that has better chairs and cuter teddies. Spent a third of the time actually discussing and the rest of it gossiping haha!

And even more exciting news I finally purchased, with my own &hard earned money, my first designer bag. It's a MARC by Marc Jacobs shoulder bag and although it cost a pretty penny, it was totally worth it! Granted, it's not the biggest bag in the world; it's just big enough to stuff my wallet, keys,cell and camera in there, but it's big enough for now. You gotta start somewhere right?

suite 200 on forest hill

So what have I been doing the last week or so that prevented me from blogging? Well, frankly, extremely glamorous things like mopping around the house avoiding the heat, eating unimaginable amounts of carbs and sleeping in late causing permanent bedhead.

But between my obviously busy schedule, I've managed to make a couple of treks downtown and to my local mall to rummage through some vintage clothing stores (bought nothing), get some back to school clothes and wax my bushy brows (hurt like a b***ch!).

Did I mention that I've spent so much time working at the pool that my hair has been bleached a different colour? Old friends that I havn't seen in awhile have asked me whether I've dyed it or not. Gr, will have to dye it pitch black before school, which is quite ridiculous as I would only be dying it back to its original colour!

I'm also thinking of cutting my hair short. Like, BOY short. Think Agyness Deyn. I know I know, but I've painfully bored with long hair and maintaining it just takes up too much time. I've been with this short hair idea for a long time now, should I get it cut? Leave comments below!

Gonna go now before anyone realises that I'm only posting a crazy long post to hide the fact that I don't have any new pics to post.
