i went to watch the tourist with a friend today and it was surprisingly good (funnier than i thought) given that the movie had been reviewing okay reviews... anyway i thought i had finished my holiday shopping BUT i found this super amazing dress (very nice fit and looks classy) at forever 21 (very banana republic style but at a fraction of the price!) - highly recommended!! i've been looking for a dress like that for awhile but didn't want to pay $200 at banana republic since their fit doesn't really look that good on me (even petite is too long and their sizes run big sometimes)...
also as i was browsing the site...i came across another dress that is very work frdly as well...i might be getting that one if i see it in stores (i don't really like ordering online since forever 21 ships with purolator which is a pain...bad service i've experienced *sigh*)

*~Boxing Day Finds~*
went to do my annual boxing day shopping yesterday...this year i went with my sister and got some pretty decent deals (spent less than i thought) i wanted to share some of my boxing day finds with you girls...so let's get started!
Sam Edelman: Calypso Flats
Originally CAD$125 - got them for CAD$45!
and still sold at regular price at some stores - they're actually my sister's...since i don't fit size 6 *sigh*

A&F: LUCY Jacket - Originally CAD$180 - got it at 40% off!!
totally was not expecting to buy this at A&F...A&F had 40% for everything in stores and i've been looking for a fall/winter jacket that is not like super thick (i.e. down jacket) and this is just perfect - similar to aritzia's tna jacket (but i didn't want that one since every high school girl has one...and my sis has the white one and the brown one made me look like a paper bag)

*~Black Patent Heels~*
so i've been looking for the perfect patent heels for like forever~~being a true size 5 that i am...it's quite hard for me the buy heels that actually fit since most stores either carry size 6 or up or runs big...or is just incredibly painful since i am totally not a heels kinda girl... finally today i found the perfect pair and for a super fab price too!! i love pointed toe and the shape of the shoes are just super cute and sexy and i need them to be of reasonable height~~ surprise~~they're from payless...i paid CAD$37.99+tax for them and they're super comfy and looks much more expensive than it is...and it's super hard for me to find comfy heels that actually FIT my true size.and has a lower than 3-inch heel.. a little *GRR* when i found out they're only USD$22.99 for u lucky lucky u.s. ppl - totally does not reflect the current exchange rate (almost double what i paid essentially)...but i still love them and think they're a great deal since options are quite limited in canada... i think all you girls should get a pair...esp if you don't already own a pair patent black heels!! perfect for work and just any casual or dressy outfit~~what more can u ask for right? again i've been looking for the perfect patent black heels for like forever and willing to pay over $100 for them...so i'm super glad i found these!!
btw they also come in patent red (on sale right now for only USD$11.00 OMG) and leopard (USD$24.99)...but i think patent black def. looks the best!

*~Earmuffs & Holiday Party Update~*
I did end up splurging on those pink burberry earmuffs and I'm super glad I did!! It's my new love...and keeps me super warm for the holiday season n_n I went to my company's xmas party yesterday and since my "dress" budget went out the window with the earmuffs...i just wore a black dress with a sparkly white bow belt instead~~
here are some cute coats I came across on ebay - each around $100...seems pretty cute but i don't know if they're warm enough for toronto winter!!

*~Holiday Parties~*
so my office holiday party is this Saturday but i still haven't decided on a dress *yikes* LOL it's too late for me to order online now BUT I did come across some decent deals (even some on sale!) if you girls need some ideas for your holiday parties!
Classic Short Dress W/ Bow - USD$24.80
cute and simple and the black and white classic colour works for an office party
cute and simple and the black and white classic colour works for an office party
again if you're looking for something simple...this adds a lil bit of style without embellishments which i personally don't really like
this is again very classy...and actually more suitable for just work as opposed to a party but u can definitely dazzle it up with a statement necklace
elegant and super cute...just makes you feel like a princess~~
bow! what more can i say LOL plus i like the colours!
