Lately...I've been going ga-ga over Givenchy. From the auburn lipstick to their chain necklaces, I've seriously become entranced. I think I've found a new favorite designer :O
-red cardigan, Target
-System of a Down band tee, Hot Topic gift from Greek Oracle (I cut the collar off because it was hella ugly)
-black skirt, Ann Taylor (I pulled it up to make it a mini skirt =3 how convenient)
-plum-colored stockings, Gap
-gold flats, TargetNote: I'm getting tired of flats...I mean, my gold ones are very comfortable and can go with practically any outfit, but it really lacks "oomph" most of the time. I totally imagine this outfit would be full of win if I had those Nine West Sulliban sandals (<3!)
-bowtie neckalce, gift from Bagel
-gold cross, Symone's Reconciliation gift :P
-Pirates of the Carribean skull, Disneyland
-tear drop necklace, Forever 21 (I think...)
-stud cuff
-wooden bead bracelet, DIY
-Our Lady of Guadalupe bracelet, some random Catholic churchNotes: I've been really feelin' the stud cuff lately. Before, I thought it was a real juvenile thing to wear...but I actually think it's a nice addition to a girly outfit if worn not so...kiddish-ly? I can't even think of the right word, but I've been wearing my cuff a lot lately (even to work).
Notes: Crappy picture...but with red lips! I've been more open to lipstick lately, thanks to my mom =3 Oh yeah, and sporting the glasses (which I never do, much to Dii's dismay). I really do like these frames, but I'd like a change since I've had them for a couple of years (all of high school for sure.) But...even though I'll get new frames, I'll probably still put new prescriptions in these haha.
My bag from my Ninong that I got a couple Christmas' ago...I don't know why I never liked it until now :D It used to have all of these beads attached to the bottom, but I cut them off, tied the end and made a bracelet out of the beads! (see picture above!)
What I carry in my bag...Woah, I just noticed that my phone's not in this picture. :P
-Wet Ones hand wipes (you can never be too clean!)
-Hello Kitty wallet (I really want a new hinge wallet...)
-planner that I can't live without and Dii wants to burn to pieces
-white DS and Poke'mon Emerald game (remember...this is still the purse of a gamer :D)
-Cherry Blossom hand lotion (my hands get dry so easily...)
-Lip Boxom by Benefit=love (I really like the tingly feeling I get right after I put it on ^_^)
-crap load of quarters that just get thrown in my bag
Oh, and next Friday I'm getting my haircut before the Breaking Dawn party and the BISF Tourney...
Uhhh. Yeah. I'm going Victoria Beckham =3

I am dying to have the Nine West shoes...Not only are they on sale, but they'd look sooooo oishii with skinny jeans. I'm tired of flats...UGH. Normally I'm not really for the gladiator-ish style, but these are just...something else. Everything in the outfit above, aside from the shoes, are things that I'd like to have, but I don't care much for.
I would also really like some leopard print tights and a faux leather jacket. Le sigh... I know that I want those things, but I can't seem to find the style that I really want. Oh! And I finally found my ankle boots! YAY! I'll take a picture of those later...
CUTIE-KUN can't end a post without it being nerdy so...
My Poke'mon Emerald game is pissing me the fuck off! I can't find this goddamn Nosepass in the Granite Cave! ARG!
I want to catch them all (hahaha)...so I can't give up!
I wish I had batteries for my camera...I want to take a picture of my outfit and all of the cute bento stuff I got today at Japantown ^_^
I guess I'll describe these things as best as I can...as lame as it is.
My outfit today:
black fedora, Lids $20
cargo pants, Target $20
plain light blue tank, Old Navy
black vest with wavy trimming, DIY (originally a cropped jacket from Target...I just cut the sleeves off =3)
skull necklace, Disneyland (Pirates of the Caribbean!)
gold tear drop necklace, Forever 21
bow necklace, gift from friend
brown beaded bracelet, DIY (cut off breads from my Stamp 10 bag)
Chinese charm bracelet, Pampanga, Philippines
Our Lady of Guadalupe bracelet, random church
Stamp 10 bag, gift from uncle
I wore a lot more jewelry than usual...I guess it's an inspiration by Lulu (gah! love her!) To be honest...she's really been influencing the way I dress lately. Actually, just the chictopians of Chictopia in general. (Thanks a lot Tea-chan for getting me obsessed with that website! >:[ ) I've been wearing my tights a lot more, craving for some oxfords (actually I always have been thanks to Hanadan), tucking in my shirts more and being more accepting of loose clothes. I can't understand why I've always worn my clothes so tight now...I honestly want to raid a man's closet :X No joke. I am seriously lusting over Lulu's Marni heels and a beige colored fedora. Le sigh...Thank goodness I have a job now. XD
Okay! So as for bento, I bought two more pink straps, silicon-heart shaped containers, food sticks and egg molds. I definitely need to take a picture of my new egg molds! I got a bear, bunny, car and fish. I honestly think the fish is the cutest, but Dii is (of course) very partial towards the bunny XD I can't wait to use them!
Didn't really Smash today. Got raped by Dii. Of course. Fuck his agro-Marth and his fucking chain grabs and fairs...UGH! Ah well...I'm still omghellamuthafukkin' in love with him<3
...outfit for today
I just wanted an excuse to wear my new Ray-Bans I got for my graduation =3
-Puma tank, Hong Kong market
-ROXY Skinny jeans, Tilly's (there originally wasn't a rip...it just wore out =3)
-Pink converse with Monchichi shoelaces, no idea
-Vans cuff, no idea
-Chinese charm bracelet, Pampanga, Philippines
-green star bracelet, gift from friend
-black heart necklace, Wet Seal (I think)
-Pink Ray-Bans, gift for graduation
Goddamit. I lost to Afro for the Level 1 tryouts of Cult of Chaos. I'm such a NUB! I know I can do better than what I did...ugh. Now I have to wait five days to play again.
I noticed that I'm very good at figuring out patterns when I see people play...Too bad my hands have a mind of their own and constantly attack with not startegy. -_-* Stupid hands...I'm a bit discouraged, but I shouldn't be! This is the only way I can get better!!!!!
*Determined face*
And for something not Smash related (for once)...I REALLY want oxford heels...or just oxfords...I want my "Rui" shoes! UGH!
SO SEXY X3 (And these are on sale...damn the fact that I have no credit cards!!!!!!!!!!!)
I
FREAK OUT. Milktea showed me a picture of this online model named Lulu Chang. Holy crap, I LOVE how she dresses...kind of androgenous. I especially love her lace-up heels, boots and thick glasses. :D My idol....
Time for a new prescription...and new frames! I really like these ones:
I don't want to get my frames at Costco again. The last time I got a new prescription, I didn't change my frames because I didn't like anything that I saw. I want to try Lens Crafters next. I found these Versace glasses on their website.
I didn't do much this weekend except play Disgaea. It took me after "Episode 1" to get into this game, but I'm hooked now! (If anyone's looking for a good strategy game check it out!)
In other news, I can't stop thinking about that Dolce Vita Kyoto dress I saw on the Urban Outfitters wesbite...ugh. Me want money. Want money now. *grunt grunt* My grandma did get me another puma tank just like the one she got for me in Hong Kong. She also gave me $25 because she won at the casino again haha. (I love my grandma.) Oh! And my mom actually bought me lingerie...that fits well! That's a first! It's hard to find lingerie to contain my small ass =3
I know I should be working at that stupid Pride and Prejudice essay, but screw it. I'll get on it...soon :P Anyways...I want to talk about Fashion Week! (I know it's from February 1-8, but hey! Never too late!)
At first, I thought that 3.1 Phillip Lim was pretty bland and boring...but looking more closely at the outfits, I actually really like his clothes. The subtle things he does to his jackets and the accessories he uses are really interesting...and classy in my opinion. I know that Calvin Klein is the "definition" of classy and sophisticated, but I prefer Lim over Calvin any day.
While I'm all for creativity, Araks's last outfit was...interesting. =3
BCBGMaxzaria is quite into the waist belts. Personally? I hate those. Especially on girls who wear them and it looks completely unflattering. But seriously, one time I saw in Teen Vogue a picture of a celebrity wearing a Libertine dress I got at Target (the green and blue striped one) with a brown waist belt...Ew! I honestly think it ruined the outfit. But meh, it's just a trend I just don't like.
Betsey Johnson must I say more? You're friggin' awesome :D (I really want that Betseyviille purse that Rachel has...) Oh! And Custo Barcelona is pretty awesome too! I've honestly never heard of this designer before (>_<). Cynthia Steffe, Diane Von Furstenberg, Herve Leger by Max Azria, Miss Sixty, Sass and Bide, Temperley London, Tuleh... = love
...not buying those white oxfords from Urban Outfitters for only $25...what the fuck. I don't want oxford heels and I don't have the money to splurge $80. I'm so stupid! I should've bought them!!!!!! I want my "Rui" shoes!
