Don’t usually feel this way, but I felt decidedly girlie the other day. Hence the floral skirt, pearl earrings, and bow necklace. I love playing dress-up in my closet once in a while. It used to be way more often (like a few times a day), but now…with all work and no play, dress-up takes a back seat. Which is kinda sad.
Oh, and I bought yet another Breton-striped shirt. I think this is officially a full-blown obsession…I have over 10 very similar striped tops (cropped, tank, tee, long sleeve, long sleeve dress, 3/4 sleeve, and a few others)…and I still have an eye on one more at H&M. Do I need an intervention?
I’m Wearing: Top, Rings, Belt, Tights - H&M; Skirt, Necklace – Forever 21; Cardigan – Zara; Purse – Marc Jacobs; Shoes – Winners

It’s a slow day today. As in I am slow today. I think it’s the Monday blahs, which means I’ll be eating Reese’s cereal out of a box, while doodling on my Christmas shopping list. Yeah, not very productive. Was reading my new book this weekend – “Nightlight”, a “Twilight” parody. So far, it feels like my brain is slowly melting with every word I read. Not good. Is this how the real “Twilight” books are? Can’t imagine ever finishing all of those thick volumes, if they too have such crap writing. Will pick up the “Lovely Bones” after this one. Though might chicken out again, I’ve heard it’s oh-so very sad. Don’t want sad, want inspirational.
Speaking of publishing, Forever21 is getting its own magazine! In about a week or so, we’ll be able to read our first Forever21 publication – a seasonal magazine, focusing on trends, styling tips, and of course Forever21’s clothes and collaborations. The issue will be free with a $40 purchase, and will also be available online. Can’t wait to see what they cook up!

Today is the launch of Cirque 21 collection from Forever 21′s new in-house designed line TWIST! I wonder how good this new collection is. The lookbook is definitely cute, but really does not look all that special and kinda reminds me of other Forever 21 items they have in stores already. The only item that I think of getting is the Miu Miu inspired dress (above). Other than that, will have to wait and see.
Read the TWIST press release after the jump!

No, I’m not planning to crash someone’s wedding, although that’s on my list of “before 30” to-dos. The wedding I’m planning to attend this Saturday is of two people that I had never met (friends of the b/f), hence the “strangers” bit. And since I’m not quite sure how dressy the event will be, I’m thinking something classic and safe. I don’t want to stand out, nor look overly sexy. The plan is to wear a black lace overlay tube dress with beige/nude lining underneath. My inspiration for the outfit will be Erin Wasson at Teen Vogue event earlier in the year (minus the showing panties), and A/W 2009 Balmain/Dior runway shows.

Large necklaces have been big for a few seasons now, from Marni to YSL to H&M, it seems that they are everywhere. I, too, have been looking for a “perfect” one at a decent price and finally have found it at…Forever 21! If you haven’t checked out their jewelry selection as of late, you might just be surprised as their necklaces and earrings are looking more grown up and bold this season. And for prices ranging from $10 to $25 – me likey!
Check out more neck-bling after the jump!

Going to Europe for the third time in a row! This time my itinerary includes London, Paris, Krakow, Zakopane, and Almaty! It’s coming up so soon and I am way too excited! And for a shopoholic such as myself, one of the most exciting things about going away is…packing and deciding what to bring!
This year’s trip will definitely be a test of my packing skills. Thing is…I am going for 3 weeks, and all I am allowed to bring is a carry-on size luggage (20 kg) and a large shoulder bag. Some (Al and Mar) would say that it’s an impossible task, others (myself) would call it a challenge! I’ve been able to make ends meet with such a modest luggage allowance for the past 2 years, but that was only for 2 week-long trips…not 3! One extra week of clothes might break this proverbial camel’s back. Let’s see, shall we?
So this WIW (What I’m Wearing) features items that I am planning to bring to Krakow, Poland. I’ve never been to Poland, but for some reason, I keep thinking florals, wavy/braidy/hippy hair and red lips. Thus, the set below, which features all of the above. I wonder how the old cobblestone streets of Krakow would feel under these naughty YSL cage shoes?
Items featured in this set
Dress: Forever 21
Shoes: YSL
Bag: Miu Miu
Make up: Clinique
