A Quick Update

(aka a list of things to do/make).

Almost Like Soft-Core Porn

(of the shoe variety).

It may be summer but apparently I want some pre-fall shoes already.

In all fairness, if not in the summer... when can a Vancouverite wear suede?

A Touch of Whimsy

Sometimes I think I have some sort of hoarding complex. There are times when I want to own something in multiples, even when there are no reason to own more than one. Example? There's this one copy of Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk and somehow, I found myself wanting to own multiple copies... Why? I don't know.

So, upon stumbling across this duck necklace at Forever 21, I felt a familiar sensation rush over me. Don't be alarmed when you see 15 of these babies dangling from my neck. Just kidding. Kind of.

March Favourites


(No particular order... I'm sure it's easy to figure out what is what).

a. Fresh Soy Face Cream
I was using the Josie Maran Argan Oil for a while, mixing it with my Clinique Moisture Surge but I ran out and bought the Fresh Soy Face Cream instead. It's alright - has a scent but doesn't last that long before it's undetectable. I just use the face cream alone without mixing the argan oil in because I find it a little too heavy.

Will I buy it again? Hmm. No. Okay. So maybe it's not a "favourite."

b. Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
I love deluxe samples because well... they're adorable. This is a great primer. Hands down.

c. Caudalie Foaming Cleanser
My favourite cleanser now. And 2 months ago. Probably for forever.

d. Essie in Silken Cord
Best red.

e. Shu Uemura Nobara Cream Cover Stick Foundation 764
So this foundation stick gives me medium coverage at best but I still really love it. Unfortunately, I didn't realize I was 764 and somehow got convinced to get 774. When I try to put it on... it gets very geisha like.

f. Daisy by Marc Jacobs
No matter how many scents, this is always the one I return to <3

Oh! Let's talk about Spring

via arabella ramsay

It's sunny today so I don't think I can really think about FW11 right now. I'm sorry. I just can't do it.

Let's think semi-summery.

You can't really see it but the outfit with the black maxi.. the shirt is amazing. Animal prints <3
