Favorites of the Moment

Image
You would think that because I have a job I would have money to afford certain things, but the truth is student loans and car payments keep me from going on shopping sprees. So just like when I was a poor college student, the trend of internet browsing continues. Here are my favorites of the moment: 1. Dorothy Perkins Stone Embellished Trim Tee 2. ASOS Full Skirt 3. Chloe Marcie Satchel 4. Gap Suede Loafers 5. Patricia Nash Handbag, Londra Tote

DIY Idea: Black Keith Haring Cuff Bracelet

Image
Have you ever seen something at the store or online and thought, I could totally make one for a fraction of the cost?  And then you start breaking it down in your head on how you would make that happen? No? Well, I do.  So here is me breaking down a Black Keith Haring Cuff Bracelet bracelet like I would in my head:   ASOS Modern Armour Cuff Bracelet$26.86 Hive & Honey Cuff Bracelet, $22     Sharpie's Markers Scribbles 3-Dimensional Paint           Keith Haring Cuff Bracelet, $165 The great thing about this project is you can custom make the design to whatever you want.

What happened to our lovely sunny weather? No need for jackets and sandal wearing weather streak? My feet have been freezing this weekend and it has become Southern California cold ( meaning not as cold and freezing as other areas of the world, but cold for someone who just experienced awesome sunny weather). Come back sun...you left too soon! As a result, I have created a collage of pieces I will be dreaming over until my sun returns to me. 1. ASOS Duffle Coat With Hood 2. J.Crew Lattice Peacoat 3. Patterson J. Kincaid Angela Fur Trim Parka 4. ASOS Collarless Quilted Leather Jacket 5. Top Shop Faux Leather Panel Legging 6. Whistles Sorrelle Wide Stripe Knitted Dress 7.

Gift Ideas for Around $50 or Under!

Michael Buble - Christmas I was recently on Refinery 29 reading a post about Gift Ideas. One of the comments was something along the lines of 'I don't know what world I would be living in where I would have $350 to spend on one friend.' I laughed because I am pretty much in the same boat and so I decided to create a list of gift ideas that were a little more budget friendly! I also thought it was time for a collage... I mean I haven't collaged for what, 2 posts? 1. Confetti Scarf , $8.90 - Such a great deal and something you can wear with almost anything. I think you can't go wrong with a scarf as a gift! 2. Les Petits Macarons , $18 - For the person who likes to bake/cook, cook books are a great gift idea...or books in general! I know that I have attempted to make macarons at least 3 times, and only once did them come out resembling macarons...and they still didn't look as good as the ones on this front cover.  3. Tocca Perfume , $48 - I love the smell of

Procrastinating away.

So I found a new way to procrastinate: going on ASOS and creating outfits. It's actually better than shopping because 1) I don't have to try anything on and 2) I don't spend any money; therefore, no feelings of guilt are felt afterward. I love every piece of this outfit..especially the knit top!

Craving Structured Bags

Image
There is something amazing about a structured bag. So I decided to compile a list of my favorites. The bags I chose have clean lines and are minimal (design wise); there aren't crazy amounts of pockets or too many design details. What makes them stand out is its structure and maybe even its color. 1. Rigby Saddle Bag | JCrew $148 2. 3.1 Phillip Lim KC Satchel | Neiman Marcus $569 3. Mysuelly Color Block Bag | ASOS $831.10 4. Mulberry Polly Push Lock Tote | Mulberry $1,400 5. 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashili Top Handel Satchel | Nordstrom $895 6. Edie Purse | JCrew $238
