Early Birthday Present!

If there is one thing to know about me, its that I'm extremely impatient. Thats why when my hubby had wrapped my birthday presents almost two weeks early, I begged him everyday to let me open them. Finally he gave in reluctantly, and I'm so glad he did, because these babies need to be on display, not wrapped up suffocated in their tiny little shoe box.



Gosh, their pretty. I can't wait to wear them! Thanks Hubby!



Cheers,
Mara

All dressed up and nowhere to go outfit post.

Ahhhh....Spring is in the air, can you feel it? Its also my favourite month of the year, March (my birthday is around the corner) so it was a no brainer today when I finally ventured outside into the warmth and into Forever 21 and saw these shoes that spoke to me, uttering the words "Hello, lover" a la Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City... 
(oh why do all the good shows have to end?)





Shoes~ Forever 21 ($35)
Blazer~ Thrift ($12)
Dress~ H&M ($10)
Belt~Thrift ($2)

Spring time is for lovers and outfits that show your legs.

Cheers,

I'd like you to meet my new love...

Like I said in the previous post, I gots myself a motorcycle jacket. And I'm in love. No matter what I'm wearing, I put that shit on and I feel cooler. 
Its inevitable. 




H&M Motorcycle Jacket~39.99


There is something to be said about an article of clothing that has the ability to change your mood. 


Cheers,

Totally diggin' this look right now


I've searched far and wide (within reason) for a flowery print dress, reminiscent of what I would have worn for my grade 6 class picture underneath a long crocheted vest and a velvet choker of course . I've looked everywhere for chunky heeled lace up boots of which I had a plethora of back in the day. Oh, if only my grade 6 self would have known how much I would have wanted these babies in the future I wouldn't have to resort to making collages through polyvore. Whoa is me.
look I want



I do have the motorcycle jacket and the aviator glasses, the tights and a ring sort of similar...so really I'm almost halfway there to successfully owning my dream outfit!! (of the moment) but like many things that seem unattainable I will lose interest soon enough. In the meantime, a girl can dream can't she?

By the by, I truly appreciate those who are following along and leaving messages, its great to be part of a community that accepts you with open arms for expressing your thoughts on this old thingy called the internet.  Thanks a bunch!
