pretend to be outdoorsy

Well, of course I went shopping this weekend... I kinda really like Nau's Asylum jacket. You can't really tell from the photo, but it's actually very stylish compared to other rain/snow jackets.



It's on sale for 50% off but at $198, it still seems kinda pricey. (Though the quality of the jacket seems worth it..) I'm going to check on it in a couple weeks. Maybe it'll go down a little more.

What's interesting about the Nau store is that if you have them send it directly from the warehouse (rather than just taking it from the store), you get a 10% discount. Isn't that weird?

this is why i'm poor

I've been obsessed with this dress that I saw Kate Hudson wearing in a photo.


It's by 3.1 Phillip Lim and it's $675! Even if I were to find it at 50% off I still couldn't afford to buy it!

Banana Republic has a paisley top that's sorta reminiscent of this dress but I don't think I want to buy it cos I'd rather have a Phillip Lim.

*sigh*

beached whale

I don't know what I was thinking. I went to Target last night and picked up a couple bikinis. (I hate spending a ton of money on swimwear because it's not like I go to the beach all the time! Why do stores charge over $100 for that crap?)

Don't get me wrong, I really like the two I chose. And if I had a hot body, I'd probably buy a few more! But right now, my body is a hot mess. (This is all while I'm having a Starbucks coffee and a butter croissant!) I'm just hoping that I can tone up before Mexico. I have three months. I also have three months to return stuff at Target... It's win-win.. ish.

I bought the Jovovich-Hawk polka-dot one.



And I also bought this Xhilaration one. It was on sale for 50% off so the set cost only $15 total. My niece says she likes this one because it looks like a watermelon.



I need to do some squats now. Or maybe I'll go get lipo and have them suck out the juice in my gut and pump it into my boobs - just rearrange it all.

you glow girl

I've been using this foundation stick that I bought in France by by Terry. It goes on super light and blends in perfectly. I actually think it's improving my skin. It must be the skincare that's in the middle. All I know is that it's wonderful.



I did a quick search on this line and I guess Terry de Gunzburg actually used to work for the YSL cosmetics line and developed YSL's most desirable product - Touche Eclat! No wonder her stuff is fabulous!

It's pretty pricey but can you really put a price on perfection? I didn't think so.

Barney's carries it.

la cucaracha! ole! and grassy ass!

Uhh.. is that racist?

Cos we're going to MEXICO!! Hunny-bunny came through and bought our package to Cabo! We're going at the end of June so that means I have about three and a half months to stop eating.

soooo hungry....

no no no

For some reason, I really like this Loeffler Randal bag.. Not that I'm even thinking about getting it because I love my Chloe!

I think it's the color.



Maybe when it goes on sale at eluxury.

hurry!

Piperlime is having a one day additional 15% off their final sale!



Thanks Nicole!

ms. new bootie

You know how I just bought some bootie shorts at Target? I put them on after work today and my bf said I look like I should be in a rap video. I think it was a compliment.

Who would've guessed I'd be Hot Slut of the Day! I could be the next Coco or Shauna Sand!

(See dlisted if you don't get it.)

hits & misses

I woke up early yesterday and met my cousin at Target for the new Go International line by Jovovich-Hawk. (Yes, we're insane.)

They didn't even have the display out yet! But we asked and they brought the entire rack out for us to dig through. Some of the pieces were heinous, but we found a few that were quite cute!

I picked up this cute little terry dress. It's really comfortable and I think it'll be great for the summer.

I also bought this dress. I tried it on and it's not as long as it is on the model. I'll have to wear a tank underneath though. I don't have enough cleavage. Haha. D'oh.


I also bought some booty short that were only $15 and super cute.

I'm always tempted to buy a lot of stuff, but I tried to keep it to items that I know I'll actually wear - though I've been browsing online this morning too. Only because not everything was available at the store.

I should get back to work. That'll keep me from shopping.

where'd those come from?

I've been thinking about getting new jeans for a couple weeks. I've pretty much been rotating four pairs because I can't really fit the rest of them. *sigh*

Anyway, I decided to try them all on just to be sure. Well, I have this one drawer in my ghetto Ikea dresser that never really opens so I never really open it. But I opened it today and what do I find? A pair of seven jeans that I don't remember buying! Not only are they practically new but they FIT!

Its like the jean fairy paid me a visit! Yippee! New jeans! Its even better than finding your own money in the laundry!

Too bad most of the others don't fit. I just put them back in the mystery drawer. Some day I'll wear them again! (Picture Scarlet O'hare with her fist in the air...)
