So...quick update here...I rushed to the mall after work to pick up the new mac x disney villains collection (can't believe all the nail polishes were SOLD OUT..YES all THREE colours were sold out by 7pm - the time I got there...) But anyway I am super happy that I did manage to grab the lipstick (in Innocence, Beware!) that i wanted as well as the powder (in Oh So Fair)...they were both feature in the last post (see below)
The lipstick is the perfect nude pink and i highly highly recommend this!!~~the price is very reasonable as well~~!! I even bought two since mac does not make this colour normally...and who knows if mac will be continuing it after this collection? Both the lipstick and powder I got are already sold out online...so better get to your local mac n_n!!

*~Mac x Disney Villains~*
OMG!! so excited for the mac x disney venomous villains collection coming out tmr in both the U.S. & Canada~~ahh haha...to be honest, i'm really not a big mac fan since their stuff is usually too dramatic for my taste...BUT hey i gotta support old school disney villains right?
They're featuring:
- Maleficient - "Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. Brought to life in 1959. Toxic green skin. A darkly diabolical horned beauty with Hepburn eyebrows. She's the self-proclaimed "Mistress of All Evil"."
- Dr. Facilier - "Dr. Facilier, the voodoo witchdoctor from The Princess and the Frog. Created in 2009. Nothing is sacred to this dandy who has stolen moves from the King of Pop and a hairdo from the Godfather of Soul."
- Evil Queen - "The vain Evil Queen from Snow White. Unleashed by Disney in 1937. Jean Harlow eyebrows. Joan Crawford's face. She set the standard for glamorous depravity and made us all glad we don't have a mirror that talks back."
- Cruella - "Cruella De Vil of 101 Dalmatians. Animated by Disney in 1961. A Dalmatian dominatrix. Famed for her cheekbones, dramatic entrances and trails of absinthe-coloured smoke"
...plus there are a few items that looks amazing (colours that i would normally pick) and prices are quite reasonably too!!
Here's the top 3 items on my list (sorry about the bad pic quality...but click on the link to check them out~~)

*~Possible Haul?~*
just started working again after my study leave...ah not really used to it or the early mornings :( anyway...also just started watching "castle" and it's actually pretty good! haha i'm quite into murder/detective/mystery shows/novels... anyway i was in a training session on thursday and saw my coworker with this amazing prada tote! i've been looking for a perfect bag and this is it!! and she has the colour that i really like - black - but pale grey looks pretty nice too...the bag is super classy and also timeless and perfect size for work since it can fit a binder and other documents (and i like to carry big bags anyway...) i wanted to make serious bag splurge and this might be it! only problem is that...well...someone i know has the bag and it's kinda like a pet peeve of mine...i don't like to buy something that i know someone else i know has...i guess i want to be unique/first dibs and don't want to be caught in the same thing! AHH...so what should i do? *SIGH*
autumn is definitely kicking in...and spotted a few items good for the fall that i'm considering :)
summer used to be my favourite season...but i've found that i actually really like fall weather...not too hot and not too cold~~
boots are definitely fall season n_n...altho not really suitable for my body type coz i'm super short...i really like these *my sister thinks otherwise...* but to me they're super cute!
on another note...spotted these look for less for uggs!! haha i actually think uggs are super cute...n super comfy~~
Charlotte Russe: Buttoned Fur Boots - USD$28.00
don't know if these are warm BUT dare i say they might look cuter than the ugg ones?

*~Longchamp Tote~*
alright girls...help me decide haha...i've rekindled my love for longchamp...but i can't decide between the 2 colours!!
*~Nude Bow Flats~*
so n_n spotted these really cute flats and hopefully they look good in person (might go check out my local forever 21...and pray that size 6 isn't too big for me since i'm a size 5 but they don't really carry any size 5) - taupe is by far my favourite...going with neutral tones is always classy and perfect for autumn!!
I've been looking for some killer nude pumps but these will have to do for now~~and i just adore the zipper detail~~

*~Heart Me~*
i just got this necklace from forever 21 and i absolutely love it!! it's not up on the canadian website yet but it is in stores because i just picked it up at the mall n_n it's actually quite classy and i love how it's just the perfect size...not too bad and goes very well with a casual t-shirt or dress it up with your LBD~~
did i mention that it's a perfect mock look for a swarvoski necklace i spotted awhilte ago... haha...seriously it totally made my day admist all my exam stress *in 3 days*
this is a great buy that i definitely recommend 100%!
P.S. the forever 21 version actually also comes in gold...but i just personally prefer silver more :)

*~Finally~*Zara Online!~*
so it's about time!! zara finally offers online shopping yay...*well not yet coz i don't think the site is fully functional*
many ppl don't realize BUT zara carries the most awesome winter coats that are really price friendly for their quality (wool is super warm and light-weight!)
this jacket is what I got a couple weeks ago and they had this style last year BUT it was sold out so I made sure this year...I grabbed one extra early!! the photo makes the collar looks weird but it's just a giant hat (heavy but not too overbearing) which is good for those cold cdn winter snowy days acoming...lol so push it back (not like the model) and it looks normal - trust me!
it's VERY slimming and way better than the black talula babaton virginia wool jacket that I bought for $300 from aritizia...while I still do love that one as well...zara definitely has way better value for ur money! it's just hard to find decent coats that are business appropriate while still keep you warm (cause there are some that look decent but are more for fall weather...which doesn't work for me living in toronto!)
seriously if you're looking for a WARM sophisticated winter coat for around CAD$150, zara is definitely the place to be (they do sell out FAST...)!

lol spotted this on the forever 21 u.s. site...apparently they already have it in Canadian stores according to my sister...looks super cute...it's on my to-get list!! totally reminds me of those cake challenges on food network~~
ahh so spending more time on the forever21 site isn't good for my wallet...LOL...i just spotted this super cute bag~~reminds me of a Betsey Johnson purse (not exactly the same) that's black and had a zipper detail bow~~i haven't had good experiences with f21 bags because they break down within like 2 months of wear...but this is tempting!!

ah exam date is closing in...x_x getting depressed *wahhh* so time for some retail therapy~~haha~~
A&F is having a super good sale right now especially on dresses *although I hate that they use purolator service...one time the guy claimed he KNOCKED and i missed my delivery...wtf...i live in a house...RING THE DOORBELL...so now I leave a note on the door so he rings...*...anyway lol went off on a rant tangent there~~
here's what I picked up~~btw A&F blocks their site depending your location so I can only view the Canadian site...probably due to the price differences~~
I limited my shopping craziness lol but there are a couple more that I wanted to get...but didn' :P
lol i just noticed the continuous blue theme...haha they're actually available in other colours~~just featured the ones I thought looked the best n_n
