Marc Jacobs has done it again.


I was browsing ebay for a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag.. no luck. But then, BAM! Great color, great quality.. Sigh. But how would I ever afford such a bag? Lots of work work work.
This looks like the perfect bag for the Fall/Wintertime. The color is pretty versatile and chic. Let's hope that the auction on ebay for it doesn't go past my bank borderline.
Best wishes,
Francesca

Is Summer over yet?


Besides the beginning of school, the fall is pretty exciting. Fall Fashion Week, the comeback of scarves and hats, and eating delicious hot foods without sweating up a storm. Ah, the pleasures of autumn. It's probably my favorite season. In the summer, you can't really do much with your tshirt and jeans, since it's about 80F everyday, with sprinkles of rain around the Boston area. Fascinating isn't it?





Well, I just got this great black peacoat at H&M the other day. The fit is great, and it was $60. Not too shabby if I have to say. I love having more fashion "staples", because they are so versatile. All I need now is a new bag. I'm not sure if I should stick to classic black or go a bit brighter. As much as I would like to go designer, I don't really want anything that will break the bank.


These Steven Madden boots are pretty awesome. I can't wait to wear them tucked into my jeans. They were on sale at Macy's for $70, so I had to snag them. Unfortunately, I am a little low on cash now. Although these suede beauties are cute, the calves area is a bit loose, which shouldn't be as much of a problem with the jeans.



Also, there are these fantastic boots I saw at Payless. They were so comfortable and I needed to have them. Only $45. Being a half size is sometimes really annoying. I tried on the 9, too small. I tried on the 10, too huge. Why can't there be more in stock for 9.5?? [yes I have big feet, big whoop] Just because our feet are slightly bigger than others doesn't mean we don't want cute shoes!

So, before I headed off the neighborhood's Italian festival today, I decided to get off my lazy butt and document my wardrobe for the day. [this is when you applaud. hehe.]


I was standing in front of my mirror earlier, wondering what to wear. After rummaging my wardrobe, something hit me. It was like one of those lightbulb over your head moments. I ran over to my mom's closet and grabbed her "I've only be worn once" blouse. Yes.


I also wanted to show you my lastest finds. I got this nice star pendant necklace and bracelet too at the festival for one dollar each! The green wayfarers was $8 including shipping off ebay. I love ebay.

like Woah.





Hey guys, so this is my first post! kind of.. Well I don't have time to document my wardrobe choice today, so I'm just going to show some cool photos of inspiration today.


I am loving the second picture's fringe bag. I want it. Her name is actually Wendy Chak, and I found the picture on the teen vogue snapshot blog. She has a blog, here it is: http://www.handitover.blogspot.com/ [i love it!]




I absolutely love Karla's look. [Karla's closet] I love the feminine pieces and proportions she uses. I really need to get myself a nice blazer.
