gloomy but...

oversized v-neck tee: h&m * bodycon skirt: topshop * fringe boots: f21 * chain necklace: pimkie

is it me or do you also think i look like i want to kill you with my face?
i also have 'not-smiley' days.

so as you know, i am the 'buy it now' ebayer.
i never win anything in auctions. too sad, i know.
so i decided to feature my newest favorite ebay store.
this might be like digging my own grave (lol) but as i am feeling extra generous to all my lovely readers, i will not be greedy about this.
Vintage Objects of my Desire.
Stefanie's store is full of pretty rad stuff.
and the best thing is, you don't have to bid as all the items are 'buy it now's (except for one or two items).
cool, no?

SOME OF MY PICKS:

rodarte-ish mohair sweater


petticoat dress (perfect summer dress)

leather romper, how amazing is this?

vintage YSL pumps (too bad not my size, GO GET THEM TIGERS!)

vintage cutout boots


vintage pierre cardin cutout sandals

vintage woven shopper

i bought two items and i can't wait to show it to you guys!

she's like the wind

i think i might have to drive two hours (or i don't care really if i need to take a flight) to buy this dress. fierce or what?

i need a crisp white (or cream) shirt. this one pretty fills up my expectations.

i know the obi belt is so last season but this one's RAD!

oversized shirt + high waist skirt = i like.

grungy just the way i like it.

and this is how i will look come autumn. nude is the new black, i mean it.
the peep toe boots are AMAZING. i don't think they're from h&m, but if they are, OMG!

so as these items are 100% from trend department (that's the pink tag for you guys), it will be a bit pricier than the normal h&m price range. that means, i need to stop buying stuff now so that i can save up for these babies. i seriously NEED these.
H&M DO YOU HEAR ME?

bestbuys

buying these tri blend raglans (i have them in grey, lavender and black) must be the smartest thing i have ever done in my life. lol. just kiddin.
but honestly, everytime i don't know what to wear, i just throw this on and couldn't care less.
PLUS these patent open toe booties might be something my 'daughter' would be proud of.
i wish my mom bought givenchy when she was young.
if these babies had hidden plateaus, i would never take them off.
sadly they don't, so it's just door-car-door for me.
1 hour = torture.
ahh, the things we do for fashion.

[insert title here]

blouse & skirt: H&M * shoes: 5th avenue

gosh, the heat is sucking up all the creativity God has given me.
i can't even make up a blog title. JEEZ.
anywayhighways, why do i never win anything in ebay?
i am the dork who always 'buy it now'.
i am bidding on three items now so if i win anything, i'll pop a champagne for everybody!
lol.

ta-ta!

goofing around

i miss being a kid.
i am excited to show/ give miguel everything.
everything i was deprived of.

;)

anyways, what does one wear in this heat?
i mean, aside from tanks and shorts?
it's always the same scenario everyday in front of my closet.
and i hate it.

minnie mouse me

top and shoes: bershka * lame leggings: aa * tube top and necklace: h&m

i have been wanting shoes in this style but never found anything near. in one of our trips to france, i had my luck. and it's pretty comfy too. definitely a good buy!

the wind totally ruined this shoot. too bad. but here's a gif for everybody!
edit: yes, i look like i am 3 months pregnant here. that's what you get for eating so much at a chinese buffet and forgetting to tuck in the belly before camwhoring. having a baby hasn't helped either. ;)

Swappy - Poo = CRAZY GOOD!!!

It has been more then amazing to watch what fabric's have come out of the woods on my new Flickr group! I have been more then lucky to sign on Kerri to help out with the Admin too... Always nice to bounce ideas off of a friend... we definitely want to keep our { fabric junkies } happy and returning!!! If you haven't seen this group... well... all I have to say is... sometimes I even cry a little!!! ;)

one sided mess

if you think flip flops are no-nos, i suggest you excuse yourself from this blog as you will see more of this.
i love high heels but when your feet start to sweat (ewww) or you can't walk straight anymore, you develop a love for flips. it's just the way the world goes round.
i decided to curl and sweep my hair to one side.
i know totally unfair to the other side (next time you're up!)..
how do we like this guys?

max it.

maxi dress: h&m * flip flops: havaianas * bangles: h&m * sunnies: d&g

this is the church we live next to. i can't imagine living anywhere without bells anymore. it totally gets to you. the ringing every 15 minutes, i mean.
