Hi lovelies, this is the last post that I am writing from my apartment before I leave for San Diego! I know in my last post I mentioned that I was going to attempt writing/posting a new blog post everyday whilst I am there. This is mainly because I wanted to get back into writing. I miss it. Normally it was pen to paper but now that I have a new laptop ( refurbished not brand new ) I love the way my fingers feel grazing across the keys. Honestly sometimes...it's like something takes control and I cannot stop the words from pouring out.

I think it has been awhile since I have created a wishlist post....please feel free to correct me if I am wrong but I wanted to get a head start on a slight Fall wardrobe revamp. As some of you guys know ( who follow me on instagram ) I went through a whole wardrobe purge and I don't mean the ones I normally do when I want to make room for new things. I created a slightly larger "Capsule Wardrobe" which is basically things that I can wear all year around without them going out of style.

I wanted to share some items from a few different places. From Missguided, to H&M, Urban Outfitters and I even threw in some Forever 21 for you guys! Happy shopping and see you beautiful people in California! I also added some items that I have been crushing on for my home revamp as well.

Am I the only one waiting for Spring?! Don't get me wrong. I love wearing Chunky Knits, Oversized Sweaters with OTK Boots ( Over the Knee ) but at this point I am over it! Bring me warmer weather and maybe just maybe a tropical paradise. I am not a fan of Summer because I mean who likes to sweat in places they didn't know they can sweat & wearing skimpy barely there clothing isn't my cup of tea either.

I have been messing around with my personal style again and coming up with looks that works for me and I think you guys will love them as much as I do.

Spring means...light layers and denim skirts. So, I will be styling some of my favourite denim skirts for you guys! I normally stray away from the skirts but I decided to live for myself this year and dressing out of my comfort zone is something on my list.

Since we're still currently suffering in this harsh bipolar Winter I wanted to show you guys this quick look that I threw together when I went to brunch this past Saturday. We visited this Irish-esque restaurant and they had a buffet style option ( which I didn't go for ) and the option of ordering from the main menu. I ordered this very delicious Vegetarian omelette and a side of fresh fruit! The portions were so big that I knew that I wasn't able to finish. Nonetheless the food was delicious and I was able to catch part of a Chelsea match. The score was 2-0 before we left!

How are you guys liking these impromptu photos? I love the idea of not having to scout for locations and you just shoot wherever!

Keeping up with trends can be kind of hard. The constant money being spent is annoying and sometimes half of the time it's not really worth keeping with the trends. Besides, fashion comes back around all the time so you are better off putting all of your trendy items away in storage and waiting until they come back in style. I wish that this was something I did because literally everything I donated in the past year has come back around full throttle and I am here like '

OMG WHY!?


I had a beautiful Checkered Coat that I got from Forever 21 and because le boyfriend didn't like it he made me get rid of it. I know it'e being put to use by another woman or child who needed it so I am not really upset about that. It was mainly just an example.

I also had tons of Cabbie Hats , Berets etc and I got rid of them all because I thought they would NEVER come back in style! I wore them often during my first year in college and I loved them. Alas, I did outgrow them and I decided to give them to goodwill BUT now they are back and I am full of regrets! I don't want to buy a new one but man oh man are they tempting me.

Although, for this Checkered Blazer it was a done deal. Not only is it super cute, it's pretty thick as well. I didn't want to dish out $60 for it so I did what I normally do when I want something. I wait and I was happy that I did! Because I got this beauty for a whopping $30! That is HALF of the regular price! I contemplating waiting a bit longer to snag it but my size was the first to go. I did size up because I wanted it to be a little bigger so I could wear sweaters and hoodies underneath.

Overall, I think that this is the perfect investment/staple piece for your wardrobe. This is one item that will be around forever! Get on that! I have linked a few down below! Shop till you lovelies drop!

If I am not able to write another post before Christmas then I will just say Merry Christmas and spend it with your families and loved ones!

There are days when I am uninspired to write from home and I end up witting in a Starbucks somewhere and people watch until something comes to me. Inspiration too write hits me at random moments and when it does you cannot get me to put my pen down. I don't know how some bloggers stare at a screen...my eyes would hurt and I would get distracted ( stupid awesome YouTube ). I do get inspired by some YouTube bloggers when they post their look-books. Even though out styles are different I am always inspired.


This is another typical Monochrome Look with a splash iced coffee and my newly re-dyed lavender and platinum hair. I didn't really like the fact that after 1 bloody wash my hair faded dramatically. The lavender completely faded and I could see my blonde hair! Talk about pain in the ass! All that work to be wasted like that. Thank goodness I did it myself. Never buying that brand of colour again. LOL.


I think I have become an iced coffee addict. Are there coffee anon meetings? I think I need to attend one. I am trying to figure out when iced coffee replaced my tea. Weening myself off the addicting drug is my best option since I am switching over to a healthier lifestyle.

Okay, switching it up on you lovelies and trying something new.


________


I have gotten great feedback about showing you lovelies what's new in my wardrobe that I wanted to try it as a flat-lay. Just to see how it was going to take. I might also make it into a photoshop look as well I am not sure yet.


I kinda wanted to practice my flat-lay skills as well. Like I said I have some new an exciting things that I want to bring to my blog. Also, I did get some emails asking about what makeup products and hair products that I am currently using.


I read the emails and I write everything down. I am just trying to come up with eye catching content just for you lovelies.


So, this flat-lay doesn't include some items that I am still waiting for. You know me. I had to hit up the Zara sale a few more times. They have actually lowered the prices on alot more of their items and I couldn't resist! I got these amazing booties that I have been eyeing so hard that have been lowered from $50 to $30! I cannot wait to show them to you guys.


 By the way everything from H&M was on sale and they were having an extra 30% off sale prices!


I will also be linking similar Zara and H&M items to what I got since some of them are no longer online!
