*~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~~

Perfect Fall Cardigan - CAD $11.50
the name says its all~~haha really good price for a standard cardigan that you can mix and match :)

Ruffle Trim Sweater Cardigan - USD$15.80
i really like this too~~reminds me of j. crew's style actually...sad that i haven't spotted this on the Canadian website tho...

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~~

UGG: Baily Button Boots - USD$150.00
...i gotta say they look cuter in person...
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~~

*~Post-Exam Retail Therapy~*

lol my exam was done on thursday *sigh*...worse than i expected x_x...but post-exam retail therapy is always good LOL...but sadly i haven't had any items that really caught my eye...lol any suggestions?
i've been shopping around for a new wallet though...i've been a fan of the guccixheart combination but i don't feel that buying impulse for it...



*sigh* gotta rant about coach...not a fan of their poppy collection and seems to just get worse and worse...haha i think i'm just going to save my funds for xmas shopping...

*~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...)!





**UPDATE** just checked the link again...they don't have that old picture up anymore haha maybe zara read my blog and changed the picture? lol...anyway this is what i mean by the collar not looking weird!!

other coats/jackets that I also liked:
