pantone 179

I just got a new wallet NO WORRIES, it was part of the deal on my spending list. There were things I could buy on this spending freeze besides new mascara and carrots.

I really needed a new wallet so i'm excited. I got it on friday & I just started using it monday AND IM IN LOVE, its more like a mans wallet than a cute silly girl wallet with all forum and no function ( frank lloyd wright gently weeps) I suppose its because its unisex. The colour is super SICK it label said brick so its not quite orange and not quite red. The stitching detail is to die for, because its so mixed matched and fun like yours truly. Plus, did i mention that is marc by marc jacobs?

I also just got this orange orange lippy by cover girl (needed mascara it was buy one get one :P) It's supposed to be silk infused and makes you lips nicer. I think ive noticed a difference especially with this winter skin. Although I always put carmex on before lipstick so it could be that. Its such a fun and on trend colour, I saw this piece in the feb issue of SOUP and I immediately wanted orange lipstick. Its a surprising colour but, it works!

it's beginning to look a lot like....

(a skim white mocha and zipper mag, of course!)

CHRISTMAS!

Looks like us kids in Chicago got our first snow, yesterday, here's a pic of the damage so far. Not too bad eh? I'm glad, I'm scared how bad it's going to get especially when you commute via public transit.-_-"

Therefore, I felt the need to get new boots. The ones I have are trusty, but they are also dusty and sad. I love them to bits but people frown when I wear them around! So with some of the commission I made through my mom's showcase (which I'll post more about that later, but btw it was a GREAT SUCCESS) I made a little trip to the Belmont Army Surplus and Marc by Marc Jacobs....needless to say I got these little numbers

I really like them and they weren't to pricey. Just enough PIZAZZ without looking decora..heh. The shoes at Belmont Army were a FORTUNE and I KNEW they wouldn't protect me through the snow. I really wanted galoshes too because the suede and leather boots get TORN UP in chicago, I see girls kicking around in some suede shoes or ugg that look like they came out of a refuge camp. No thanks! I wanted something that would just wipe clean! I'm also going to invest in some rain boot socks, so my feet stay cozy and warm through below temps. :D I was so excited to get them that I walked out the store with them on! Hee hee! It was so hard though to go to go to Marc Jacobs and only leave with the boots! XD

So with my new boots I am super set on winter stuff! I have my new coat from last year. Its an army green wool trench with a fur trim, similar to this...but it has a fur trim and it's like a wool tweed. This one is from yesstyle's style berry

and I also have THESE

PAAAAAAAANDAAAAA MUUUUUUFFFFSSSSSSSSSS

Cute right?! They were a gift from my panda--whom I miss dearly! I have talked to him in weeks because of his finals kicking his butt because he graduates this month! YAY! And he also didn't pay his phone bill soooo he can't call me either. siiiigh, I miss him so much, but I can wear the panda muffs and think of him!❤


Other than that all things are cool here in Chi-town! I finished my finals today (weeeeee!) And the test was totally easy I know I got an A or a B at least and I only studied for like and hour. Oh and here's a funny side note, before the test began the professor showed the cutest little panda picture on the projector! It was like panda was cheering me on! I know he's always around, even if I don't see him


Soooo, that's it really, I promise to blog almost everyday now that I have free time, I'm going to make a list of "to dos" over break, but for the rest of tonight I'm going to rest! What are your plans? (btw like the new layout? I felt like being festive, maybe it's my roomie's christmas music and Jenny's inspiration!)
