Thrift Thrifty #2

Here are those Karl Lagerfield glasses I bought back at the thrift shop the other day. They're actually really large; I could never wear them because they're actual prescription, but someday I will pop those lenses right out and begin my initiation into hipster-dom.

They were $1.50 because I had a volunteers discount + extra 50% off the entire store + they have no brand-ladies pricing these things.

HURHUR for first dibs.

Svpply

I have finally discovered how to make screenshots YES so I can make screenshots of my awesome maplestory skills of the five years past. I have been utilizing this newfound skill of mine fully.
Anyway, here is a fantastical new website called Svpply, which I discovered while trolling Pascal Grob's fashion blog. It's essentially a website for gathering all the goodies you find on the internet in one place; no more annoying bookmarks and folder making for seperate websites (something I do very often). And you can make it public pour tout la famille (for all the family) to see. It is Christmas coming up, you know. Which I will not have time for because of Finals.

Thrifty Thrifty

The picture quality is horrible, je suis desole. But on the plus side, I have a new laptop with a webcam from which I took this picture! Last week was extra 50% off week at YSI Thrift & Gift, and I got a pretty new Dooney and Burke bag for $10 because I also have an extra 20% off volunteer's discount~ But anyway, it's sort of pretty and old, and I got to pick this thing up myself out of the pretty case it was resting in. DO I QUESTION IT'S AUTHENTICITY!? A bit; but it's not one of those extremely copied brands like Coach or Louis Vuitton. I will remain oblivious, mm hmm.

Lately I've been volunteer working at the YSI Thrift and Gift for volunteer hours and retail experience. I get a 20% discount, yeah! And today is the last day of their extra 50% off all clothes and shoes week.
I was on the search for these pair of shoes I was going to buy, and my brain was lead astray to those relatively new Jeffrey Campbells and my fingers decided to begin typing on my keyboard in a cross-internet search for them. Instead, I was lead to Jeffrey Campbell's website (of course) and his SS/2011 lookbook. I didn't find the ones I was looking for, but these are pretty too.  Chunky shoes <3


But yes, I like that hemp hem at the bottom of the shoe. What do you call that? What is this.. POW! Right in the face.

Fences




Phoenix - "Fences"

Ma Vie, enfin

I haven't posted in forever! Sorry, to whoever reads my little posts.

I wanted to make a personal post, but I didn't want all those folks at school seeing it, and this website is like a ghost town with those tumbleweeds that roll roll around on Scooby Doo.

This pretty little chandelier on Instructables is made out of a Tumbleweed. Useful little things.

Today I made myself feel bubbly by injecting thoughts into my brain about, you know, what do us filles think about? I was skipping down halls! But I made sure no one saw though, 'course. Je suis trop pathetique.
(QU'EST-CE QUE TU PENSE, QUE APRES TOUT CES ANNEES, IL VA ENFIN AIMER TOI? NON CE N'EST PAS POSSIBLE)
You're a little loser for even posting about this. And stop being a smeagle!
 I miss that movie.
And I admit I listen to asian music, ooh, such a naughty little fille.

Monki




(Top to bottom: Rafaela, Viviana, Emma, Isabella)
These pretty things are from Monki designs - I love the galaxy printed tunic the most (relatively priced, at 20 euros, or $35), because if I had a time machine, I would travel back to watch the Big Bang! Je suis une galaxy geek. Monki produces lots of offbeat designs and pretty printed t-shirts at an Urban Outfitter's price.

Homecoming is coming up, and mes amies are being asked left and right! (La soeur aussi!) And what about me? I have not! If you like it, you should put a ring on it. I'm going to buy a ring soon. Have you seen the kidding foxes ring at Forever?

Charles Anastase Spring/Summer 2011

Isn't it all pretty and garden-esque? Someone compared it to Marc Jacobs, and maybe it's a little similar. But long skirts are so pretty now! I remember in my not-so-smart 8th and 9th grade years, because future me always thinks I'm smarter than those past mes (Ha!) I was like, "I'm never going to where an over the knee skirt! EVER! (to my parents)" but, now I think I will. This is Charles Anastase's Spring/Summer 2011 collection, which I think is ever so pretty in shades of pastel, and that sheer flowered creation is so pretty! And collared shirts  <3

I used to have such a thing for Little House on the Praire.

Fall

Topshop's Lookbook for fall! When I stare at it, I get flashes (LIGHTNING!) of inspiration, but I can't ever do it, youknowwhatImean? I will remember! :
The layering is boo-tiful, especially the brown leather accents (knee pads, elbow pads). If you've seen H&M's commercials (MINDBLOWN! When I first saw it- did H&M make commercials before?) ma soeur et moi, we share the $14.95 men's cardigan with the elbow pads (suede, not leather, unfortunately). So les garcons.. if you ever get cold.. you know who to talk to~
And I like the cut and paste thing going on, with the mismatched sleeves - like knit sleeves with a leather vest. The warm colors make me want to drink hot chocolate!

Anyway, if any y'all were reading this blog for personal tasty tidbits..
Je suis un materialistic personne mal, non? The perils of fashion and the way it makes you seem like a stuck up ladybug. I assure you.. je ne suis pas ca! (I am not that!)
Do ya'll know how it feels to supposedly look like someone but feel like so much less than that certain personne qui you are supposed to look like? If you are part of the 3.2 percent of the world who has a twin, you do!

La Jumelle: That's exactly how I feel!
Moi: That's exactly how I feel!

Topshop Spring 2011

I REALLY loved Topshop's Spring 2011 show.  Why aren't they major designers? They are, aren't they?
 I'm going to go to sleep thinking about this. Goodnight. Click here to see the rest! I liked the white and red combination, the nudes, and the crazy poof-i-licious hair.

London Fashion Week Begins

Yay for fashion week? Oui, yay, for a bazillion new trends and combinations~ But I really don't have time to surf through ALL THE COLLECTIONS, that's 400+ pictures! Topshop is doing live streaming for a few of those shows too - I remember when Marc Jacobs went streaming. I tried to watch through all of it but couldn't because my mind starting wandering off to what my cat was licking.

But London Fashion week begins today! Maybe 4 years from now, I'll be in London instead of sitting in my spinny chair, at home.

Suno x Loeffler Raundall

I try super hard not to reblog from Refinery all the time - but these Suno x Loeffler Raundall shoes were just so. pretty. Tres jolies! I have such a thing for huge, wood chunks in shoes, and the prints make it look more pop-arty. They're actually popping up all over the internet, actually (like Nylon!). The two collaborated for Suno's Spring 11 collection.

Band of Outsiders Spring 2011

 
The 70's
It's fashion week! Here's Band of Outsider's Spring 2011 Women's wear. I chose this bit because they remind me of the 70's, with bold basic colors! I like the 70's, despite Lovely Bones. That put me down in the dumps.
Speaking of the 70's, I got myself Disco Duo nail polish from forever the other day, it comes with a sparkly grey and a pastel grey. I like the pastel grey.

How are you supposed to spell "grey"?

Grecian
The second part of their show contrasts,
It's sort of pretty and flowy, Grecian actually! (Look at them' sandals.) I like them both.

Basic Instinct, (Lookbook.nu)

Facehunter
I need to find a jacket comme ca. Phyllis says I need to calm-the-casual- down, but, I know I just can't. C'est impossible!  I try, I try. I bought a bowtie for a friend recently, but I'm not sure if he'll wear it. I want a bow tie! I like how she has an androgynous outfit, but looks girly-wirly too.

"Viktor&Rolf x H&M" (Lookbook.nu)
This girl, I love her looks. I also want her blouse, but it was expensive, pour un chemisier. I must continue my search.

Frank Tell Spring 2011 Shoes (Refinery29)
Wedges. I love wedges. I feel bad for not having heard of Frank Tell before. His wrap whit shoe is pretty.
It's Fashion Week!
