Secret Santa Shopping!

Visited my friend at work and went Secret Santa shopping! :) 

She got me a Chai Latte with Soy :) Sorry for the bad photo quality, I took it on my phone! D:
I'll post the gifts when the 3rd item arrives in the mail! I'm so excited for my Secret Santa to receive their gift!    I feel proud of myself for choosing his gift :)

Black Friday in NYC

Our room at the Hudson Hotel.

Popped into Magnolia Bakery for some cupcakes :)

We found a Tim Hortons off of Broadway! No Starbucks for us this trip!

Gorgeous Victoria's Secret Store Decor

Had our first dinner in the city at Del Frisco's. Nice ambiance

Partial to Black

I was recently on a shopping trip and ended up in Little Burgundy. The Hello Kitty laptop cases were so adorable but I couldn't justify spending $45 on one. Regardless, I was later helping a friend search online for a bag she was looking for . I saw an "emo" Hello Kitty laptop case on sale! I just got a netbook and needed a case. The angry face was too adorable to pass up on and Little Burgundy is currently offering FREE SHIPPING on orders of ANY amount (no promo code necessary). I'll post a picture when I get it. I can't wait to use it :)

I'm trying to take more pictures of the clothing items I buy without body shots. But I think I might need to start doing OOTDs to show them. I haven't thought of a way yet to photograph them nicely yet. Will get to that during my "reading week."

Velvet bodycon midsleeve dress; Simons. Silver Necklace; H&M. Maxi Chiffon Side Slit Skirt; Dynamite.

Here are just 3 items that I've recently bought and thought would look nice together. I had an urge to own a velvet dress and was on a hunt for it for a while. There were skater dresses in velvet from Top Shop. But the velvet had no dimension to it and was "flat" (like those from American Apparel) so I didn't end up buying it. I saw this dress on a mannequin in Simons and thought it was perfect! Sleeves and "patterned"! I absolutely adore the necklace! I saw it on Jen from "ClothesEncounters" and decided that I had to have it. It's a great accessory to wear underneath a collared shirt. I've been really liking that look lately. The chiffon maxi skirt is amazing! The side slits allow you to wear it in multiple ways, making it worth every penny I spent (even if I did get it on sale :P) I'll post pictures up in a week or so. I have midterms this week before my spring break. Wish me luck!

hmmm... I think I buy too much black....

A little shopping

I finished my exams and decided to do a bit of long overdue shopping.



I won't be showing what I bought at Lasenza,whats so exciting about bras?



Something that I've been eying for a while now at American Apparel is this Silky Collar Tee in Cream. (I know it's a lil wrinkly) Since I was conveniently downtown for school and I thought I would buy it at a downtown AA. I walked to 2 American Apparel stores downtown and they didn't have it. The first store took atleast 15 minutes to locate a black one. And the second store didn't even know where it was. I then went to the one in Fairview, they didn't have it but it was the ONLY American Apparel store that offered to order it for me.
Since I needed to spend a minimum of $50 to use my TeamBuy ticket, I grabbed a Glitter Nail polish in Super Nova. It's a pretty glitter polish but it's super hard to remove (like all other glitter polishes) so I think I might stay away from glitter polishes from now on.

Shopping + Song Ji Eung - Going Crazy

I just found this song today and I'm listening to it nonstop! Reminds me of a Korean version of those Eminem duets that's been playing all the time on radio stations everywhere. The MV features Min Hyorin. Her facial features are so unique and delicate. Her outfit here is amazing! The dark and eerie concept of the MV reminds me a bit of GaIn's "Irreversible."


My dad took a day off work so we went shopping today. I adore buying lingerie at La Vie en Rose. They tend to have great deals on night wear. I just love buying sheer, frilly, lacy slips!

I didn't bother trying it out at the store, I didn't have the patience today and bought this in a size small. Fit me perfectly at home. The double straps give the back a little cute detail. The lace front and bottom lined lace are just adorable. I'd probably wear this out with a tank or tube top underneath with a cardigan of some sort. I love finding wearable lingerie pieces to wear out!
