Oops!

So yesterday I for whatever reason left my make up bag sitting on the washer at work. I grabbed the towels from the washer to load into the dryer and pulled out my make up bag. Soaked. I must have knocked it inside while throwing the towels in. Oops. Opened the bag and all my make up was ruined. It absolutely needed to be replaced! Kind of sucks that I had to go to MAC right after work instead of going home for dinner 😦

Anyhow,

here’s what I purchased 🙂

1. MUST HAVE- MAC Studio Fix Power Foundation $32.00 (Wear this everyday no going with out!) NW 35 is my shade

2. MUST HAVE #2- MAC Studio Finish Concealer w/ SPF 35 $20.00 (Use for under eyes and the odd blemish) NW 30 is my shade

3. MAC Pink Swoon Blush $23.50 (The brighter the better on tanned skin or darker complexions)

and lastly 4. MAC  Blot Powder $27.50 (Medium/Dark is my shade, PERFECT for hot summer day touch ups. Blots the natural oils also great for setting your make up when finished applying)

What I Wear When I Work Out

Working out has become a bigger part of my every day life the past two months and I am sad to say it hasn’t always been that big on my list of priorities. BUT that’s all about to change as I feel a thousand times better since making the decision to get off my butt and exercise 🙂

Here are a few things I like to wear while I’m either running, doing yoga, or crunching it out. lol

1. I swear by wearing leggings while running or anything physical, probably because they are the most comfortable and that’s pretty much it. They stretch with you as well as make you look skinny at the same time lol About 85.00

2. I have a few work out bras by Nike, Reebok, and even Fila, but I think my favourite is Under Armour. They support the best and make the smartest styles I think. About 50.00

3. Tank Tops. I never wear t-shirts while working out, they just get too sweaty and feel restricting. I have tons of tanks from the Garage. They surprisingly last long, stretch, and come in great colours 🙂 Not to mention they’re normally pretty cheap!

4. Head band. I never work out without one. They soak up sweat, and most importantly, keep your hair out of your face. I like to buy mine from Lululemon. They seem to be pretty sterdy and they’re only about 12.00 each 🙂

5. Lastly. SHOES. I have several pairs all by NIKE, however a good running shoe I find are Asics. Very comfy and supportive. About 185.00 at Foot Locker.

It’s July!!

So it’s been a VERY long while since my last post.. and I shall try to continue as much as I possibly can. Life’s been crazy busy lately 😦

This post is basically about what’s going on right this minute in MY summer style. Just felt like posting something since it’s been so long..

Lately, Vancouver has been pretty cruel in giving us much of a summer on the West Coast this year. Booooo. I haven’t been to the beach ONCE, sat on the patio for drinks, or anything remotely “summer like” this summer. But I can share with you what I’ve been feeling lately when it comes to fashion . First off, I work at a tanning salon so there’s not much of a dress code which is fine by me. Working in a heated environment can be pretty warm there fore the temperature outside may not always be the greatest; however I get to dress like it’s summer at some point. lol

So I’ve been and always will stick to my denim shorts! Love em, gotta have em. The more the better. Wear them with ANYTHING and they are just so comfy 🙂

Another, over sized t’s. Again, where anytime of day and incredibly comfortable.

Laid back style winner. ANY t-shirt. I’m a big time jeans and t-shirt girl so on the days where I’m feelin blehhh, I just throw on any t-shirt I have 🙂

BATHING SUITS!! I honestly don’t know why I bought three new bathing suits this summer when I haven’t even had the chance to WEAR them. But I’ve been totally into neons this season, the colours look so good on my tanned skin I just had to!

FOOTWEAR- OK, I literally cannot get enough shoes. I have a serious problem with buying shoes I don’t know when to stop. Recently I bough a pair of wedges at Aldo, and reeeally comfy pair of flats. As well as flip flops, and another pair of flats that I haven’t even worn yet, but that’s not the point. lol

PICS!

WHO will she wear?

I am sitting in front of my tv this very moment watching the beginning of the Royal wedding as it is THE event of 2011 without a doubt. Although designers like British fashion house’s Alexander McQueens’ Sarah Burton has been rumoured to be the lucky winner to design Kate’s dress; we won’t know until the moment soon-to-be Mrs. Prince William steps out of that Rolls Royce!

Along with Burton are Sophie Cranston, and Bruce Oldfield who are also up in the air  as possible designers of the dress. Whoever the designer  is, it is the DRESS is what every woman in the world is beyond anxious to see!

I work in the morning so chances are I won’t be able to marvel at such a glorious day in London at 3 am here in Vancouver, however I will be glued to my phone on the skytrain to work blogging and youtubing that’s for sure!

If I were to guess or even begin to wonder what Kate’s dress will look like, here are a few images I see in my head =)

So I’ve decided..

The very first place that I would LOVE to travel to if I ever get the chance would be PARIS. Being in love with fashion, I think it’s probably every girls’ dream to visit the romantic city. Among the amazing couture, high fashion, and of course sight-seeing, food, and shopping.. one thing I would have to do is check out a Christian Louboutin store. Oo-La-La! I wrote a report on the famous shoe designer in school and I learned everything there is to know about Mr.Louboutin. Like any shoe lover (obsessed in love and totally ga-ga for shoes lady) would be, there just has to be homage paid to the prestigious shoe boutique!

The latest from Christian Louboutin are the Maggie pumps, which also come in different colours like black, blue, beige, and red..

Victoria works them well..

Speaking of closets..

I admit I have this weird thing for closets… Especially if they look like this….. !!

UNfortunately I’m not rich yet ,nor am I super famous but inspirations that I look to for ideas are….

I would post images of how I store my clothes and shoes however I recently moved so I’m sure no one wants to see that! Next time 🙂

My new shoes!!

So I don’t have a picture to post YET, but I will post the next time I put them on. I’m talking about the Brian Atwood Loca Studded pump. My mom took me shopping in the states for my birthday last month, and I found the cutest knock offs ever. Only $10.00!! Not too sure how long they will last but they will always sit nicely with the rest of my heel collection! I found them at the Charlotte Russe store (my favourite in America right now.)

Here’s  what I’m talking about. (These ones are lavender but mine are grey.) You might have seen them before on Sarah Jessica Parker in one of the Sex and the City episodes (or the movie, can’t remember).
