struck!

Ive been eyeing the Balenciaga harness platform boots for such a long time now and when i visited solestruck's website i found out that the boots were sold out but after staring at them for god knows how long, i decided to enter the wait list. A few days later, i received an email. here's whats in it.

I got so excited cause now theyre gonna have it back and theyll have my size! But after reading those lines I remembered.. oh wait, i dont have 300 dollars.

The Black Bag.


A bag is defined as a flexible and portable container. To me, a bag is one of life’s essentials. You see, it’s not just a place where you can put your stuff in but rather a piece of investment that you use every day. The word “container” certainly doesn’t give it justice. We rely on bags for two simple reasons: first, we use it as a carrier of all the things we need; from money to gadgets to make-up. Second, we use it as an accessory - not only does it carry our things but it also complements and completes our ensemble. The black bag is only the most basic piece of investment (other than the black Louboutin pumps) one could make. Black is simple, versatile, and is the epitome of chic. How could you ever go wrong? So here are my current top 5 - Lust over the must.

51 ish days till Christmas!

The Countdown begins as Christmas draws nearer. Since Christmas is one of my favorite holidays, I think it’s never too early or late to be giving (or asking) gifts and making wish lists. Therefore here is the early edition of the Jingle bells & Sleigh Bells Wish list 09’. (Attention to my dearest sister in the windy city, this post is for you)


Un (1). Range Rover or a Mercedes Benz G500 (Black)

You can never dash into the snow or around the city streets or the SLEX without a wonderful shiny pimpy sleigh.



Deux (2). Sam Edelman Boot

Three years ago, Balenciaga launched its Winter Black Harness Boots in the Fall 06 collection. This chunky and quite huge looking platform boots seemed ridiculous at first glance, yet I’ve come to love them ever since MK trotted the streets with these at feet. So at number 2, is Sam Edelman’s Zoe boot which is a split-second Balenciaga.


Trois (3). The Wang Bag

Alexander Wang is one of my favorite designers. His ideas and collections molded my style today. In his Fall 09 ready to wear, he upgraded the model-off-duty look, including his bags which definitely appeared edgier. Here’s another Splurge vs. Save.


Quatre (4). Topshop amigo stirrup ankle boot

My original love is a Zara black studded ankle boot yet I haven’t found any picture of it so this Topshop ankle boot would suffice.



Cing (5). Sequins and blazers


Two wonderful things mixed together would create the trophy (sequined) blazer. This Topshop find is totally an investment due to its luxurious appeal (shiny & sparkling) and of course it’s a simple put-on that makes your look efficiently bearable. Plus, it’s a great piece for the holidays!



Six (6). Trustworthy jeans

Topshop seems to be prolific in this list. Anyway, I am an adorer of their skinnies. They always seem to have a perfect fit and a great look combined.



Sept (7). Nixon making its way to the mainstream


Seventh on my list is Nixon’s the time teller P. I kinda like the red looking orange piece but the rubine, light blue, white and purple seem cool too. I also like the Fluro Player and the Ceramic Player – but the ceramic’s a bit pricey.



Huit (8). Blingage

I must say my stocks lack in this department. I am in serious need of some blingage! Im on the lookout for some lion rings or any cool looking animal ring.




Neuf (9). Makeup!

I’m a girl; what more can I say.

From Revlon I would like the Super Lustrous Lip Stick in Black Cherry

And also the Colorstay Eyeliner – I tried this from a friend and it worked wonders.



From Chanel:

Chanel Nail Color – in Gondola, Blue Satin and Vendetta



Chanel Corrective Concealer




Dix (10). Ray ban New Wayfarer (optical)

I seriously need new glasses not because for fashion but for real optical needs. I am blind. (not really..kinda) So I found these ray ban wayfarer glasses and they look geek chic in some way.



I prefer the black, plum & white or the blue one.


Have an early merry christmas! :)
