A Lil Bit of Therapy

So it's getting to the end of the quarter for school, and your girl's stressing out over so much school work. I mean, I can handle it. I work pretty well under pressure and all the assignments have been fun to do, buttt... a little stress relieving via retail therapy here and there never hurt.



Wedge boots from Target.
I have been eyeing these for over 2wks before I finally decided to buy. The reason it took so long was because I didn't wanna pay $28 LOL. So I was comparison shopping, but nothing else had all the elements that made me fall in love with this specific pair (suede, fur, laces, wedge, and comfortable). Either they had all the elements except wedge (which was a biggie for me) or it was wedge but not comfortable. So I took the plunge... I know it's still at a very affordable price, but when you're like me and you find crazy, great deals like this and this, then $28 becomes a real stretch.



Knitted beanies from F21
I love the colors on these! I've never been a big fan of yellow, but mustard yellow has always held a special place in my heart since my BF bought me that mustard bag from Cebu a few years back =) And this bright red-orange one I had to have. It's bright but not loud, so yea, loves! It's funny how these appeared on the sales receipt though, they were labeled as "mustard and tomato". LOL, for a second I felt like I was shopping for groceries.



Circle scarf from Express.
I didn't like how my face turned out in this pic but also didn't feel like taking a new one, so I did what any diva would. I put on some over-sized aviators and called it a day hahaha. But anyway, I really adore this scarf! It's so soft but so warm and I can pretty much wear it with everything I already own.



Faux-leather and stretch fabric skinny pants from H&M
If anyone follows me on twitter, you know that I'm looking for leather shorts. Well, I found them but they didn't really agree with me. So I got these instead which fit and look a hell of a lot better.




I'm not usually the first to go ga-ga for leather pants, but these were different because the seams are made of stretch fabric which makes them not only breathable, but also curve hugging!




Blazer from F21.
This is my favorite purchase recently. It fits like it was tailored specifically for me, which is very rare to find in an inexpensive item, when you're budget conscious like me. I think it was like $35 maybe? I forgot, don't quote me on it. But it wasn't just the fit that made me fall in love with this...



Notice the slight sheen to the fabric? OMG, these pics don't do it justice at all. It's very classy, very polished looking in person. I also love the little sharp detail to the collar on it.



And the other little detail that I adored was the pockets. First of all, they're real pockets. Not those sewn in pockets that don't hold anything that most inexpensive stores have. Plus, it's not your typical pocket. They're just slits on the side that won't add bulk to your waist, and it keeps your frame very streamlined.

So that's all for now,
Toodles!
