Welcome to my Polyvore!

This is my current most inspirational outfit. If only my boyfriend would take me out on a date, and then I would have a place to wear it too. ;)

Hello everyone! I'm here to inform you of an awesome give away. Erika Marie, the fashion blogger behind Fashion Chalet, has announced on her blog that she'll be giving away a Balenciaga Arena Giant City bag! This bag itself is amazing and any girls dream to own. Here's the link to her blog post explaining the rules, etc:

This bag is perfect. It's not too big, not too small. It really would be a dream come true to own! In this set I have created an outfit that I think would look awesome with the bag. It's very simple, yes, but I think that way the bag stands out more, 'ya know? I've also included a collection of random items to put in the bag.
Hurry and enter, the giveaway ends January 12th! And while you're at it, check out her blog! It's one of my favorite fashion blogs. It's a great place for fashion inspiration! Good luck to all that choose to enter!!

Hello everyone! I haven't been on in years it feels like. I've been very busy and uninspired this past week, thus my lack of posts. But the weekend is near and I'm feeling myself get a little more inspired everyday!
Anywho, here are a few random things going on in my world...
 
About the set: I love this outfit. Yes, it's all black. But at least I have a gray cardigan to go with it! The boots are my favorite. And that bag... ohhh that bag... I have recently been on the look out for a new bag. I've searched everywhere from H&M to Net-A-Porter. After giving up, I recently stumbled across this little guy. The bag itself is perfect. Classic design, fantastic quality, and it's the perfect size to fit my daily essentials (i.e. the Naked2 palette from Urban Decay, my iPhone (well, future iPhone. One month to go!), my most favorite lip product: Fresh's Sugar Lip Treatment, and some sunnies!). The bag is perfect in every possible way, except the price tag.. *sigh* Oh and I've been really liking the look of gold & black jewelry! Does anyone now a good place to get jewelry? Today I lost my favorite ring. No idea how or where it might be, but I think it's time I get some more jewelry. And also, I love both the photos. A gorgeous, unknown model with perfect makeup; and a favorite photo from fashiontoast.com.

My 2012 New Year's Resolutions:
Drink more water
Add more accessories to my outfits
Expand my music collection
Clean my makeup brushes once a week
Make more Polyvore sets
Find the perfect, inexpensive bag
Get a job at the little coffee shop that smells delightful
 
Well, that's my ramble of the day! I thank you to all who actually read all this and I hope you all have a good day/night/morning and your weekend be filled with fun things and amazing people!

I love this outfit, it might be my favorite one I've done! How is everyone's holiday break going? That is if you're still having one..
 
A couple questions for you guys! I'm thinking about buying a few fashion, style, and makeup books for myself. Do you know of any good ones? I'm thinking about getting these:
Style by Lauren Conrad
From A to Zoe by Rachel Zoe
Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty
The Fashion Book by Editors of Phaidon Press
Face Forward by Kevyn Aucoin
Fashion: 150 Years of Couturiers, Designers, Labels by Charlotte Seeling
 
Do you guys know if these are any good? If not, what are some of your favorite fashion, style, or makeup books?

Merry Christmas my Polyvore friends! (even though it's technically still Christmas eve...) I hope your day is everything you hoped it to be! And if you don't celebrate Christmas, then I hope you have a great day! :)

Black on black outfits are my favorite.
 
Christmas is in two days! WOOHOO! I hope you're as excited as me! What are you hoping to get for Christmas this year?

I desperately need to upgrade my wardrobe. Since I'm on a tight budget, I think I'll do so by adding lots of accessories to my outfits! That way, I can wear simple things but amp them up a bit with a fun necklace or even heels! It's the cheapest and chicest way to transform my look without spending all the money in my piggy bank. :) What are some of your style resolutions for the new year?

It's a New Years Eve party with Armani Exchange! If you're attending a party this New Year's, remember to bring a gift for the hostess like a nice smelling candle! If you're the one throwing the party, treat yourself to a little something something. ;)

Hello everyone! :) I'm sorry I haven't been on Polyvore in forever, I have been super busy all week with school and family get together's and what not. But it's one week till Christmas! Are you excited?! If you haven't already, it's about time to rip out those ugly Christmas sweaters, hot chocolate, and Chirstmas movies!

Good morning everyone! Well, the weekend is over, and I myself think it went by way too fast. Sigh. I hope every one of you has an awesome start of the week filled with holiday music, hot chocolate, and everything else that's good in this world!
