A combined haul post.. I haven't done one in a while! That's a good thing though because it means I didn't shop that much ;D
[Items aren't listed in the order I received them & all prices are in USD]
Elle (
Fast Food and Fast Fashion) was kind enough to send me an early birthday present a few weeks ago when I asked if I could buy the follow ASOS dress from her since it wasn't the right size. I was so surprised that she sent me more than I had originally thought! A few Urban Decay pigments and the ever-so-popular Rock & Republic blush. Thank you, Elle <3 Your kindness and generosity will not be forgotten! Trust me :P
Above are the gifted goods. : ) Rock & Republic Pressed Blush in X-Rated (only "Shameless" is left
here) and
Urban Decay pigments. It will be fun experimenting with the pigments as I'm not makeup-savvy. The colours are
Rockstar (purple),
Smog (brown), and
Protest (green). Thanks so much, Elle!!

I already own an ASOS dress in petite UK 4 (US 1), so I wasn't surprised that this dress fits me so well. I suck at tying bows so that part's gonna be a slight struggle for me. No worries! Practice makes perfect : ) The length is great on me and I have no complaints about this dress!
Seen on
Elle and
Jean.
ASOS really needs to make more apparel for their petite line! There are so many pieces I love from their regular line, but
I've learned my lesson. Their regular UK 6 will always be big on me. :(
Cooperative Lattice Tunic $59.00 $19.99
To be honest, I was actually disappointed when I took this out of its package. It didn't look like it would go past my bum and it looked sort of boxy. My mind was blown when I put it on and it actually looked like how it looks on the model. Never judge a book by its cover? haha It's actually a
little big on me, but I like the slouchy sweater look. : ) Good thing I tried it on! I wore it out within an hour of receiving the package! ^_^
I wore this with black leggings and leather boots the first time, but in the spring/summer, I'm so copying the way the model styled it. LOL Nobody's original these days and I'm not gonna try and be the first! :P
Sweet Heart Sunglasses $14.00
These weren't on sale, but I couldn't resist them for only $14. I've been wanting a red pair for a while. Plus, it had over 100 reviews! Most of which were great. ^_^ I already own a black pair, which I
think is from Aldo.
I wasn't sure how this would look on me, as I've always been a "simple patterns" sort of person when it came to clothing & accessories. When I saw sale price vs. the original, I thought to myself, "Why not give it a shot?" All four reviews were positive anyway. You'll be seeing more animal print clothing & accessories on me in the future. : )
I do have photos of me wearing it, but you'll see it in an outfit post shortly!
KORS Michael Kors Stormy Rainboot
This is so weird. On Michael Kors's official site, it's listed as $125 USD. On the
Browns site (where I purchased them, but in store), it's listed as
$99.98 CAD, but $160 ORIGINAL. wtf? I mean, the US/CAN currencies aren't THAT different... lol
If you're looking for these boots in Toronto (& have small feet), you'll probably have no luck because I bought them about a month ago and even
then I had a hard time looking for my size. The Yorkdale location had no sizes and I randomly went in the Scarborough Town Centre location one day and purchased the last pair. They even helped me locate it in other stores and only a handful had it!
There is about a 2" gap at the calf, but this really doesn't bother me
because it's not noticeable since it spreads out to 1" in front and 1"
behind. With jeans tucked in, this really isn't noticeable. You've seen me wear this MANY times, so I won't bore you with another photo.
WARNING: These boots will hurt like a b*tch for the first few weeks. TRUST ME. It was so painful to break in. More so for my right foot than my left. (I SWEAR my right foot is bigger...)
Cheap Monday TIGHT Original Unwashed Jeans $75.00 CAD $52.00 CAD
