*~More Online Shopping*~

YAY~finally!! Gap, Old Navy & Banana Republic now have an online Canadian site~~finally we can take advantage of great deals...without paying ridiculous amount of duties and taxes x_x and minus the hassle too... In addition to the >$50 free shipping they're featuring right now - here are a few coupon codes floating around...
  • promo code LOULOU15 for 15% off all purchases until October 31
  • promo code BRTHANKSCA for 25% off (not sure if this only applies to banana republic purchases...)
I've picked out some favourites that are going in my shopping cart~~so here goes~~


Women's Ribbon-Trim Ballet Flats - CAD$9.99
simple flats...but i love the fall colours~~perfect for my wardrobe right now...

Women's Studded Faux-Leather Ballet Flats - CAD$9.99
my sister tried this on in stores awhile ago and looked decent...and now at $9.99...definitely a steal (black and grey also available but this colour is my favourite)
Women's Slub-Knit Cardigans - CAD$7.47
worth a feature just because it's under $10 - your typical cardigan at a great price...

Women's Cowl-Neck Jersey Dresses - CAD$16.00
i've always loved cowl neck...very classy and perfect with a necklace...not sure about the jersey material in person but definitely has potential

Women's Ankle-Zip Skinny "Citizen Surplus" Cargos - CAD$22.00
super in style right now...skinny cargo pants~~at $22, it's a great opportunity to try out this trend~~i know i am! let's turn this into a look for less n_n

Women's Tipped Cardigans - CAD$16.00
so...the preppiness continues...i absolutely adore two-toned cardigans and usually they don't really match it right~~so this was definitely a nice surprise...i'm always a sucker for the right shade of lemon yellow and grey just goes with anything! casual and work friendly...

*~Milk Tea Picks~*

Some milk tea picks of the day to share with you all...

very cute~~knowing me..how can i resist a perfectly good bow? i'm definitely picking this up if it looks as good in the pic as it does in person~~although the fuchsia is not really a colour that works for me...it's too cute not to be featured~~



kind of reminds me of hello kitty...haha maybe i'm in a semi-halloween mood~~but i kind of like it esp at only $13~~also available in black
i really like the black and white combo and it's just a great simple cardigan for work/school for a great price~

this colour combo totally reminds of glee~~totally perfect for fall n_n i've always had a thing for preppiness~
rmb those louboutin nude pumps that i wanted? forever 21 just came out with a pretty decent alternative as well~~although i'm super disappointed that they still haven't started carrying size 5 x_x i thought i'd share this find with you girls~~

*~Shopping Binge~*

so i guess i've ran into a lil bit of a shopping binge lately...haha...i've got my eyes on some new items again...and guess what~~bags again!!
i did go a lil overboard on my target purchase...depending on if they suit me...i might have to unload a few of them since i'm concerned that i won't be able to pull off the patent or the denim...but we'll see...n_n...just checked target site again...only bag left that is not sold out is the giant pink leopard baywater~~can't believe how fast that went...doesn't make sense that target doesn't have more stock for such a highly anticipated launch!
so girls~~what did you guys think of the target x mulberry collection? i've been reading blogs/forums/reviews and it's a love/hate situation...apparently there's an issue with quality or most people complain about the bags looking "cheap" or that the "for target" sign is too big~~
my two cent? while i haven't received the bags so i can't comment on quality...i think it's nice that the collection were able to use the classic baywater design and really wish they would've made that style in faux leather but instead they went with patent and denim...but at the end of the day...it was a good buy for target prices and cmon!! you bought the bag from target so of course the "for target" will be fairly visible and anyone paying that kind of attention to your bag would know that you bought it for $50 anyway...it's unrealistic to try to pass off a $50 bag for $1000 bag from mulberry's normal collection~~anyway enough of my mini-rant~~this whole collection actually made me seriously comtemplating getting an actual mulberry baywater (black or tan colour?) since i just love the english and it actually quite suits me (for those that rmb my prada bag dilemma...) haha...might've just found the perfect bag to splurge on for me~~

Front Pocket Camel Fashion Bag - USD$29.99
love this bag!! it's quite unique and not your typical quilted chained bag...i love the bigger squares of the quilt and the style just suits the camel colour so well~~seems roomy for my needs since i do prefer bigger bags~~


Lattice Korean Style Handbag - USD$18.99
they're available in a few colours...i just think it's a great price - the lock details is very similar to the bag above (same collection i suppose?) but i just love quilted bags and this one has a lil personality with the lock and chain details~i prefer it in black or camel~~but i believe red is also available as well~

*~Target x Mulberry Haul~*

OMG...stayed up til 3am Toronto time...to get my target x mulberry haul that i've been rambling about for a month now~~!! totally worth it...but i spent way too much haha like $400 so u can guess how many bags i got :P...i figured i can always give them as gifts since we don't have any target stores in canada!! i basically grabbed every bag in the collection except if it was in leopard pink or if it was sold out sadly :( because they released the patent shoulder bag a couple hours ealier and was sold out within 2 hrs...as i was being indecisive and waiting for the rest to come out...some styles have already sold out after 30 min being online 0_0 hope u girls got urs online or go visit ur local target asap~~

*mini update: target does seem to restock periodically...so i would keep checking for on the site if you see a style that is sold out right now - i've seen this happen with the $29.99 patent black and the faux leather black crossbody bags*








*mini update: the pic above just doesn't do this office-perfect bag justice...so i had to show the side view that made me fall in love with this bag~~kind of surprised that this bag isn't sold out...not in such high demand...but i guess most gals are going for the classic baywater style~~but i do recommend this one as well...a tad smaller than the baywater style but still roomy enough~~*
