Sooo I've just come back from a really great concert! I promise to post pics of that tomorrow, since my camera's on the fritz and I have to wait for it to charge before I can import the pictures off my camera. Ugh. But yes, it was a really good concert! The kind that gives you a little adrenaline kick at the end, and you're all giddy afterwards lol. I'm not going to spoil the surprise but I'll give you a hint at who I saw...



"The how I can't recall
But I'm staring at what once was the wall
Separating east and west
Now they meet amidst the broad daylight"
Answers anyone?



Anyway, here's some things I'm really liking right now!

Stingray Baby Spike Bracelet
Skeleton Shell Spike Necklace
Twisted Snake Bracelet
Rose Gold Wide Retro Bracelet

Hopefully I can find something similar to those pieces in the near future, since I'm totally not up to spending around $600+ on one piece alone lol. Although I wish it were possible...

BTW, I'll be doing a little DIY in the near future.
Inspired by crazy shoe jewellery via Litter SF.

I am currently baking in my own personal oven right now. It's SOOO hot outside (and inside) that I think that I might actually resemble something towards a puddle. I also made it out to the last fireworks yesterday and it was literally a SAUNA on the bus. Thank god I booked it down to Davie & Seymour to actually get seats on the bus, but it was so humid in there that me and my friends had hands of cards to each of us, fanning ourselves with both hands. And the trek was sooo tiresome that I had sweatbangs :(



BTW, I can't wait for these baby to hit stores at Zara!
Balmain-esque anyone?

MOST INTENSE FIREWORK EVER!
South Africa performed and it was just amazing because we randomly had a lightning storm. It was raining and everything but definitely work sticking around just to see fireworks and lightning magic! ENJOY :)


(fast forward to 5:35 for craziness)


love jurassic park :)

It's that time of the year again. A yearly tradition that brings all sorts of people out onto the beach. What is it though? The Celebration of Lights (aka FIREWORKS)! Yay! Lol, basically it's a fireworks competition where countries put on a 30 MIN show of fireworks with music. I haven't been to them for two years, but I decided that it was finally time to endure the craziness. The only trouble about them is that it's always super crowded and you always get flustered from bringing a whole bunch of crap, and then packing up super quickly in order to leave the beach early enough before the mobs of people start. But in all, it's pretty fun depending on the groups of people you go with. It was Canada's turn and the theme was the Wizard Of Oz. I only took a few pictures cause someone's head was in the way (note that one head in the photos lol).




But anyway, here's what's on my buying list right now...



1. Grey Blazer
Love the black lapels and sleeve lining. I see imagine this being a very popular staple item once I get it!
2. Pocket Tee
Very Kain-esque. Love all the semi-sheer materials lately because it's just so damn hot.
3. Sequined Blazer
Great for the nightlife. I don't know if I'd actually follow through and rock this.
4. Dyed Grey Skinnys
I'm so into the whole black/white tie-dye effect right now.
5. Chain Studded Purse
Verrrrry Thomas Wylde inspired and this is the next best thing since I highly doubt I'd be able to afford a real one in the next two years haha.






So I just finished watching the few episodes of 10 Thing I Hate About You (the TV Show, not the movie) and it's actually pretty addicting. Plus, I love Lindsey Shaw (the girl who played Moze on Ned's Declassified - yes I watch the Family Channel) and Ethan Peck (the guy who plays Patrick Verona) is totally hot especially his voice *melts* which is so deep and alluring haha.

The most recent episode featured songs by this new artist, The Filthy Souls, a band from Manchester. This one song they played got me hooked :)



Listen HERE. I'm in love with California Save Me.

(Sorry guys my music uploader place isn't working with me :(
anybody have alternative websites?)

I'm also super in love with this song right now

Yeah soooo I've been super lazy and haven't really been posting anything in a while.
Blame it on the super crazy heat. Ugh it's sooo hot (mind you that outfit picture was from a few weeks back when it was raining lol, how I miss those days...) but I'm glad that my dad finally caved in and plans to put in air condition in the house next summer so we won't have to brave the hotness.

Right now these are on my want list.

Ughhhh I've been so busy lately. Plus it doesn't help going out til 3AM, then having to wake up 5 hours later to go to work the next day. The lack of sleep is not fun. But on a lighter note, I've successfully stretched out my shoes via this video that I found on youtube. And I got them on sale too which is a bonus!

So I will leave you guys with that little tidbit. Now excuse me while I pass out on my bed forever...

oooohh wee.

I love sale season.
All the deals, the amazing finds, everything! And did I find anything worth while you might ask? Why YES I DID! lol. I hopped across the border to Washington this Sunday and thought that I wouldn't really have that much time to shop, since I left quite late in the afternoon and the malls all closed early, but to my dismay, I found THREE pairs of shoes for only (get this) $60 in total! I was in such a high because the craziness, but sadly, one of the heels I got already broke (aka I was trying to break them in and addicently slipped a little down my carpeted stairs which ripped the side of one shoe) but I'm planning to go back on Saturday to see if they can do anything about that, since they didn't even step out of the house yet. Also stopped by F21 to grab to slub t-shirts and what not. Also got a pair of Brown's special Jeffrey Campbell sandals that are an awesome shade of blue earlier today. In all, I've realized that I need to find a job with more than just minimum wage, or else I'm in trouble...lol.



So first up are the amazing studded sandals that I adore. Super comfortable, so if anyone's at a Nine West Outlet store, definitely give these a try. Second up are the coveted Gladiator sandals that I've been scrounging for ever since I saw them online. I literally joyed for joy when I saw them, and was even more happy when I found out that I was holding the LAST pair on the black ones in my size :)



And the Jeffrey Campbell ones I got earlier on today. Don't you just love the colour?!
Oh and in lastest news, the tickets for Vans Warped Tour finally arrived at my doorstep. I will now guard these with my life and pray that I might get the chance to meet Dallas Green :)

So my camera's busted...
But I did get to see an awesome concert this weekend - Carny, Pretty Reckless and *drumroll* the Veronicas! It was probably one of the better concerts I've been to and Taylor Momsen was actually really good, and I love her style (grunge rock). Plus the drummer for Pretty Reckless was SUPER hot (if anyone know's his name, I'd like to know! lol). The Veronicas were really good too! They definitely brought tons of energy. A hardcore fan even gave them a present from the front lines, and they took it and serenaded her during a song. Definitely awesome. I can't wait til my next music outtings - aka The Fray (08/05) and Van's Warped Tour (08/14)!
