*~Chanel Sunglasses~*

I just started to drive regularly and needs some sunglasses!! I don't wear contacts and have pretty bad eyes so I just pre-ordered my new pair of sunglasses n_n they're super cute from Chanel - I picked the white bow for now but the black one is also nice too...ah can't decide! Only the black one is available at Holt Renfrew (they sold out of the white one...but I was able to get the white bow pair from the Owl at First Markham Place since they will be getting some in stock) What do you girls think (black bow or white bow)?

Chanel: 5170 Sunglasses - CAD$365


*~Flats, Flats, Flats~*

*sigh* so my obsession for shoes (especially flats) continues to grow... so much for spending freeze!!

Bought a pair of Sam Edelman Calypso Ballet Flats last week at Capezio (Vaughan Mills mall location) - I've been eyeing them since they came out a few years back and finally pulled the trigger since they were on sale for CAD$95!! Not that good of a deal BUT it seems like this style is discontinuing and is on clearance in stores and online so this seems like my last chance to grab them (in my size too~~I had to settle for size 5.5 but luckily the flats run small and I was able to work it with an insole) I had been searching for a better deal online but the white colour is very popular and sold out everywhere~~and the other few stores that still carry this style (prob out of size) were still at regular price.
The price difference between these flats in US & in Canada is pretty huge (regularly price CAD$125 in Canada but only around USD$90 in U.S. and plus sales happen much more frequent in the U.S.) and that's why I've been delaying the purchase hoping to find a better deal online~

AND oh so ironic...right after I bought these...there is a Winners location at Vaughan Mills (i used to shop at winners a few years back but now they never have anything good...), I saw the exact same flats for only CAD$60 *sigh* but in a size 6...just can't catch a break LOL but I was so surprised they were there and no one had snapped them up!


When I went to Buffalo, I saw them in other colours (and other sizes...oh if I only I was a size 6 + up) for only USD$50 in Saks outlet!! *sigh*...the black looks very nice as well (BUT I bought a pair for my younger sister during boxing day sale for only CAD$45...haha great day for her!)


These are very stylish and elegant and perfect for jeans & leggings~~they're on sale in various colours & sizes on on endless.cm and amazon.com~~highly recommend you girls grab a pair when they're still available!


I used to love juicy couture a few years back but now they're getting a little tacky...BUT I was pleasantly surprised when I saw these at Capezio at Bayview Village shopping centre...on sale for CAD$65 (40% off from original price of CAD$115)~~so sad that they only had size 6 when I needed a size 5...the size 6 did run a little small but was still too loose for me...although these are jelly flats, they look surprisingly classy and elegant (the picture does not do these justice) and definitely office appropriate~~I suggest you girls to check it out!!

*~My Love for Paul's Boutique~*

I love everything English n_n and Paul's Boutique is a brand that I've been loving for awhile now...but don't have anything from it yet~~since their bags are not readily available in Toronto...and it's quite trendy (a little too trendy for my everyday style now that I'm working...)~~luckily Asos.com does carry the line (although the styles are a little past season) but still have a good selection n_n here are some of my top picks!


While this is very similar to a longchamp bag, i like it that it's got a lil bit more personality with the signature "I love PB" logo and the adorable charms~

Very nautical...and this trend is always in style and perfect for the summer season! The bag seems roomy which is perfect for a girl like me who carries a lot of stuff around~~plus I really like how structured the shape is :) goes with the stripes very well~~there is also a matching wallet available for USD$53.44~~

I've been eyeing this one for awhile now!! I love the preppy look and this is it~~plus with a twist of very adorable bright colours which I love. I'm seriously contemplating getting this but I'm trying to move into a more sophisticated style...but I'm just not ready to grow up yet!! Matching wallet available for USD$53.44 as well~~

Paul's Boutique 'I Love Paul's Boutique' Twister Bag - USD$113.78
This one has also been on my list but I realize...with my height at 5 feet tall...the bag looks pretty big but I would consider this one of the signature styles of the brand and you know how I love my big bags!!

This was seen on Paris Hilton (not that I'm a fan of her at all) but I do like diamond and bling patterns and most of all, the english flag pin that is so glammed up!! The price is the same as the regular pattern which is a great deal~~no price premium for limited edition n_n

All so tempting...I'm definitely struggling with putting myself on a spending FREEZE until September when I go to Hong Kong for 3 weeks!!
