In Chicago

I've been shopping for two days. I went to two different malls and an Ulta. I just wanted to share some great pieces I've found. I've mainly been looking for spring/summer pieces, since winter is almost over with.

At Forever 21, I found a pair of high waisted lace shorts.

They're a great find. They were only $15.80 and are available online, if you're looking for them. These are actually very versatile, season wise. These would look so cute with tights and a band tee (the check out lady at F21 and I discussed this, haha)and some cute booties, or these would look good with bare legs and a white tee.

I wish I could found the amazing trousers online that I found at Charlotte Russe. They were on the $5 rack. They fit me perfectly and they are a light enough material to be worn in the winter or spring. I'll probably feature a whole video around them! A nice fitting pair of trousers is a staple item in every woman's closet. They make going from work to place a cinch! At Charlotte Russe, I also found a pair of brown heeled sandals for the whopping price of $5! I wasn't going to die without them, but I figured they're great sandals, especially for only $5. CR is also having a great deal. All you have to do is like them on Facebook, show them some code, and you receive a free piece of jewelery.
This is what I chose:

I've been meaning to find a bow ring, so I figured why not, it's free and I love rings.

I also went out on a limb and purchased a FUR VEST. I know I know, I'm a wild card! It was only $14.99 at Baker's Shoes, and I couldn't resist. I decided on the light camel-y color. It looked cute with my hair and would go amazingly with black.

So that's a little bit inside my Chicago trip. I'll film a video when I get home. Sorry I wasn't able to film WHILE I was here.

CHI TOWN

I'm leaving for Chicago tomorrow at 8 pm. I'm excited to shop! Chicago has so many more things than my town does. I can't wait to go to an Ulta for the first time. I'm looking forward to checking out some NYX products. I am lusting after Root Beer and a few other shades. Be expecting a haul as soon as I get back.

I'm thinking about filming a video packing for my weekend get away. That should be interesting.

I have a new video up! Check it out honeys!

2011

So this is a new year with new goals and aspirations. I really want to get more fashion videos up on Youtube and work on being more camera friendly, sometimes I'll admit I get a little awkward. I also want to work really hard on finding a job and making some money. I need to be able to support my nasty habit of retail therapy and spending money I know I don't have. I want to work on being more independent.

I have a new video in the works right now. I think I'm going to try to start a mini series on how to wear certain trends and things people think that they're not supposed to wear, but can! My first one is going to be on how to wear black and brown together because you can it looks surprisingly chic.

If you have any suggestions, send me a message on any of these social networking cites, Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Lookbook, Blogspot.
