Leave it to a Pro…
Hello Darlings,
Today was spent in the library killing my head with French, honestly all that I can say is do not start a language in a university. It really does take too much time from the rest of the work. Anyways, moving on.... following my grueling study session and an exam, it was all about Halloween costume hunt! And yep, I found myself a costume! So excited 
I love dressing up, I am such a kid at heart.
Getting to the point...because I can ramble for hours 
I always receive a lot of e-mails about two of my Mackage jackets which I am always happy to answer each individually. However, I decided to make a general post just in case others are curious or do not feel comfortable e-mailing ( although I really do love getting e-mails from you!)
From Las Vegas With Love, part 2…
Hello Darlings,
Thank you for your sweet words! I adore my blog and more so I adore the new friends ( all of you darlings) that I have made because of it
This is the last part of my Las Vegas posts!
In the place of sunshine, hotness and dryness... the only thing that is left for a girl to do is stock up on sunscreen, purchase a floppy hat, consume ridiculous amounts of water and most importantly enjoy the beautiful weather
Lounging by the pool was probably the best way to beat the heat...and of course, finally have a chance to wear my new Brette Sandler silk cover up.
Lesson learned,blisters happen after few hours of walking and dancing.... and those fabulous shoes you love so much become a torture device!!! ( Outchy) After experiencing my first blisters in many years after the first night of fun, I resorted to wearing my trusty flats up until the point of going to clubs.
I am wearing: Alexander Wang Chiffon Dress; Juicy Couture Flats;Coach Wristlet;Luc Kieffer Ring
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE high heels... but being a student it is not very comfortable or practical. I do spoil myself by wearing heels to lecture only when I drive.
- Heels are not worth wearing if you're going to cripple your feet!
- Wearing a floppy hat is a smart choice, not only to shield your face from the harmful rays but also to avoid heat stroke!
I am wearing: Maggie Ward Dress; Juicy Couture Flat; Gustto Cokera Purse; A.V. Max Cuff; Floppy Hat from a random store.
To top of almost every outfit I wore my floppy hat, religiously. I get heat strokes within minutes of being out in the hot weather. I never thought that I could pull it off or feel comfortable wearing it, but I fell in love. I know that fedora is a hat of the moment, but it made me feel like a teenage boy and really did not suit my style. Soooooo many people make it look a-m-a-z-i-n-g, I just felt awkward unfortunately. In comparison to the fedora, the floppy hat made me feel like a lady
Honestly, they are sooo stunning (click on the video belong and turn on the speakers). Also check out the Eiffel Tower, the views from there is beyond AMAZING!I wish you all a stunning day!!!

Variation of Stripes…
Hello Darlings,
Why am I talking about shoes, when this post is about my obsession with stripes....lol.
I'm one of those people who doesn't have much color in the wardrobe, but one thing that I do have is variety of stripes... really I have at least a dozen pieces with variations of stripes. I find stripes to be very effortless and chic.
You will definately see a lot of it. Another session is the leather jacket - I think that it was the best splurge, I wear it all the time.
Yup, I still wear gloves. I just really love my hands to be toasty.
And since spring is in the air - I decided to brighten up my day. By painting my nails bright pink and to my surprise it complimented the blacks and grays of my outfit perfectly.
P.S. Although I get low lights every few month just to add shine and dimension to my natural hair color... I was thinking of getting a bit of highlights, maybe honey brow?
Can't wait for the warm weather....
P.S. I am definately looking forward to this weekend and to have a chance to catch up with your lovely blogs !!!!
With Love...

Gifts and latex….:S
The moment I laid my eye on these latex babies, I knew that my world is about to change.....Well,I always though that I would be the last person to wear latex anything ... but here I am, desperately looking for a pair of latex tights...
<------ so scandalous, and oh so alluring!!! If anyone knows where I can find a similar pair... please let me know, I will be grateful forever. THANK YOU
While looking for a gift for my boyfriend, I found a new coat for myself by a chance. It is yet another Soia & Kyo ( i love their jackets and they are Canadian) coat and it is slightly similar to my black one but also very different ...Every time I look for a gift, I end up buying something for myself. Although this is my 8-9th winter jacket, I still have yet to find a perfect gift for Andrew. Yes, I suck at buying gift for men... I feel like I have already given him all the classic manly gifts that a girlfriend can get. HELP!
Soia &Kyo Wool Coat in White
Hayden Cashmere Dress
Moschino Suede Gloves
Michael Kors booties
Gap Leather Purse
Calvin Klein Opaque Tights in Black
Can you believe it, the winter 08 hasn't started and the designer are already showing Pre-Fall 2009 Collections... I am the only one who feels like fashion is getting way tooooo far ahead of itself. I haven't had the time to look at all of the Spring 09 collections and the fall is already out ... Are you serious? :S
Anyways, back I go to studying ... I have a final exam on Monday. UGGGH
I wish you all a fabulous weekend.

♥ Getting Glam with Alexander Wang…♥
" Anyone can get all dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their off days, that are most intriguing." - Alexander Wang
The dressed I purchased is from his first, full ready-to-wear Spring 2007 collection.'Till this day, it's my favorite collection by him and I fell in love with it the first I saw it ... the sheer fabrics, the gentle colors, and the girly look was and still is PERFECTION to me. When I saw this dress, I had to have it ..... and I will admit, it's perfect .Although I love all of his designs, I will always prefer the girly chic over grungy chic....but it is only my personal preference.
<------ There it is ( click to enlarge)
Although the dress is totally "me", I decided to experiment with my make up ... which was inspired Burberry Prorsum from the Spring 08 show. Since my dress, was very girly, light, and pastel color... I decided to wear light make up but with a touch of purple.
My Take

When the weather gets nasty, like today,I don't care what I wear as long as I am cozy and comfortable... haha .... well that's a little over exaggerated.
What+ What= COZY
Here's my formula:
Chuncky Knit + Thin Cashmere + Fav. Pair of Jeans + Comfy Waterproof Boots + Gloves + An Umbrella

Cover’em up …. :)
Hello Darlings,
Not since 50s, when fashion was all about prim and proper, have women embraced gloves as part of their wardrobe, along with the pump, the structured handbag, and the hat. Instead, gloves have been considered just a winter necessity only in the winter, as a last resort to prevent frostbite.
Well, that is NOT the case for me .....
I LOVE GLOVES.
Not because my mommy said that every lady needs a pair of gloves but because I love them. Like most of the " can't live without" accessories ( shoes, bags, belts) they can change the feel of the entire outfit and nothing says classic elegance and chic like wearing a pair of beautiful gloves.
Here's a little guide that I find very useful
My Moschino Beauties
I can't wait for it to get a little colder ...
Lately, I've been loving the preppy look but with a a touch of personality
I decided to bring back my Abercrombie shirts from back when I used to work there.... ( it was my first "real" job" and I quit in two month because the Abercrombie clones began to scare me,lol).
So, here's what I wore for yesterdays class
I am wearing:
Abercrombie & Fitch Shirt - $89.56
Talula Wool Blazer - $148
Corpus Altha in Cracked - $230
Coach Lather Swingbag - a gift from Andrew
Minnetonka's - $44
