What I Wore: I Didn’t Steal Your Boyfriend…Jeans

Adore these new jeans…le boyfriend – not so much. I do, however, think that he feels slightly relieved that for now, my boyfriend-dressing will slow down just a tad, and I won’t be stealing his jeans any time soon. But I, I just love my new jeans…so comfy, and not at all tight. How it should be. I also love my new Forever 21 crop top. Except, I have to tone up that belly before venturing out in public with my belly button showing. Strongbody class, here I go.

I Wore: Boyfriend Jeans – Urban Outfitters; Crop Top, Cardigan – Forever21; Bag – Zara; Boots, Belt – Aldo

Wishlist: Floral Shorts

Ahh, spring! Well, not in Toronto. Not yet. But definitely, definitely in stores all over the place! Am drooling over so many pieces of clothing/accessories, that I think I’ll need another job just to be able to afford everything. Le sigh.

Well, enough of sadness. Because who could ever feel sad if they had these babies? I don’t know if it’s the floral print, or the fullness of these shorts, but the moment I saw these Forever 21 shorts, I could not stop thinking about them. And since they aren’t yet available for purchase (not online, at least), I am doomed to keep drooling.

My friend Jo also pointed me to this other pair of floral shorts from Urban Outfitters. These are quite cute as well. Perhaps a tad too long for my taste (I’m no hoochie, but I do like to show off my legs in the summer), but I’ll consider them if the Forever 21 pair doesn’t quite pan out.

What do you think about these? Fun or fugly?

A Little Damage

A little bit of Urban Outfitters and a little bit of Yorkdale. Thank goodness it’s Friday!

What I’m Wearing: Check Yourself

 Ok, so my love for all things striped is still going on…and on…and on. Went to Yorkdale the other day, and almost bought two more striped things (a dress and a top). When will this madness stop? But the truth of the matter is…I feel comfortable and chic wearing Breton stripes…and that’s that. Stole my mom’s Ralph Lauren scarf…it is just soo comfy and warm! She won’t let me keep it, so I have to “borrow” it occasionally when she doesn’t wear it. Still loving my Aldo boots. Yeah, the heels are super high, but these are still the comfiest boots I own. 

Oh, and I am also wearing my new Urban Outfitters “Texas” necklace!!! First spotted it at Buffalo’s Walden Galleria, regretted not buying it…tried to find it in Houston (without much luck), and finally got my paws on it in Toronto! You can’t see it here…but I’ll post a pic soon! Love it so much!

 I am Wearing: Boots – Aldo; Top, Jeans, Ring – H&M; Blazer – Zara; Scarf – Ralph Lauren; Bag – Louis Vuitton; Necklace – Urban Outfitters

Holidays 2009: Cute Gift Ideas

gift ideas

I know I’ve been MIA lately, and it’s prime blogging season, what with the shopping frenzy, amazing pre-fall collections, and sales happening practically everywhere! But since blogging is not my main job, and is more of a hobby or a passion, other passions of mine took center stage as of late. Things such as baking and gluttonous devouring of cookies, lusting over Chanel purses and other goodies while Christmas shopping,  slothing on the couch wrapped in a blanket watching my favorite holiday movies…What’s that you say? Those are sins, not passions? Tomayto-Tomahto. So with that in mind, posting will continue at this slowed down eggnoggy rate until the holidays are behind our expanded behinds (I am not the only one eating all those sugar cookies, am I?).

I’m sure most of you are still smack dab in the middle of Christmas shopping, and if you haven’t checked out Urban Outfitters and www.FredFlare.com, then you really should! So many cute, weird, quirky items! From adorable earrings to Russian Doll measuring cups – you can find a perfect gift or a stocking stuffer for that special person on your list! Happy Shopping, lovelies!

Shoulder to Cry On

urban outfitters

Or not? Those babies are so sharp, that no one in their right mind would ever want to lean on one of those! So, I’ll call it body armour! For when I’m feeling particularly fierce and unapologetic, this dress would convey everything that I refuse to say. Almost like performance art, right? Or not.

Ok, the reason this might not make much sense is because it’s Monday and I had to work on Saturday, and I didn’t get much rest this weekend, so there. No rest for the wicked. Never any rest. At least my year-end is finished, and I don’t have much to dread in the coming months. Hooray. Damn, forgot about Christmas shopping. Nevermind then.

I am looking for a transitional pair of black heels. Something versatile that I could wear with my skinny jeans, but also to the office, during those early Fall days. But also, something different…I don’t want yet another pair of peep toe pumps (I got a bajillion already!)

So far I love the Deena and Ozzy line at Urban Outfitters! Inexpensive and so very chic! These are my faves. Now, if only I could narrow it down to one pair!
