Toting Goods

One of the things that are definitely on my wishlist at the moment is a simple brown leather tote. I came a across a few since seeing the amazing With Love From Kat's show hers continuously in photos, but none of them have been the right colour. Since shopping in stores haven't turned out well I have turned to online shopping. Here's hoping I can find one by summers end.

1. Zara Leather Tote - $79

2. ASOS tote - $75

3. Kate Spade Tote - $264

4. Forever 21 - $33.80

5. JCREW Tote - $169

How perfect?

Five Monthly Favorites: June

Hello :)

Life has been catching up with me these past couple of weeks, I know I said I would be more consistent but to be honestly there was so much more I had to do and by the time I started to blog again I was dead tired. Trying to adjust to a new schedule at work and finding a new job has had me tied up most evening and days. Between, hunting, rewriting and writing resumes and cover letter, the application process took longer than I thought. But now that I got of the applications I wanted to get out I have more down time in the evenings. 

Now on to my favorites this month. 

1. Hourglass: Ambient Lighting Palette 

This palette just provides me with the best glow. I have dry skin and its usually pretty dull but this brighten it up in the best way possible. I know that each shade is meant to do a particular thing but I just use it as a powder and I love it.   

2. YSL: Rouge Volupté Shine in #15 Corail Intuitive

Best summer shade ever. 

Not to mention the beautiful packing and moisturizingness of it. Its amazing, I want more.

3. Revlon: Colorstay Moisture Stain in Cannes Crush

I bought this because in my head it would be like Dior Addict Fluid Stick would be like. No I haven't had the pleasure in trying that (I've bought too many lipsticks this month). But in my head this is a dupe. Even if its not, this is an amazing product, I love the initial application but I love the stain it leaves after the product is gone even more. 

4. Salvatore Ferragamo: Mini Bag in Red

Can I start with saying I can't believe this is in my possession? My amazing sister bought this for me as a graduation present. I am still in aw of it. I use it whenever I can and it surprisingly fits more than I thought it could. Not to mention it was beautiful and perfect.

5. Fujifilm Instax Stack Mini 8 in Yellow

I love this baby in Europe it like a instant souvenir. I trying to make more of an effort take more pictures and this camera helps with that, alot. 

Those are my favourites of June!

Cheers, Jennifer

Sunday Steals - Work Edition

I started my "new" job (moving from part time to full time) within my company as a Marketing Coordinator and have my first full week of work starting this monday. After a being a student for my entire life than coming off of a six week vacation its been challenging to adapt to a new schedule, but I'm getting use to it (slowly, but surely) & I'm actually enjoying it. 

But with a new position comes what else? New clothes of course, I have work appropriate clothes from when I was part time, but now being full time I really feel like I don't have enough and have started to take on the mantra that if I can't wear it to work I won't buy it (well I'm trying too).

Just coming from an unpaid 6 week vacation my budget is tighter than I would like it to be but lucky me there are some wonderful sales from even more wonderful stores.

This week's steals are from JCREW, Sephora and Nordstrom.

1. JCREW - Jeweled Bow Top - $42.99 (with code SHOPNOW)

2. JCREW - Minnie Pant -$55.65 (with code SHOPNOW)

3. Sephora - The Twenty Two (Find In-Stores)  - $33

4. Kate Spade Lilla Tote - $266.66

5. JCREW - Leopard Loafers - $99.99 -(with code SHOPNOW)

Makes a cute outfit huh ?

Thats all for today !

Cheers, Jennifer

Graduation Day & I'm Back

Not only did the day come, but also it has now passed which mean I am now an official Alumnus, which is insane. After 4 years of University I can't believe that I am no longer a student. No more midterms, finals, papers, projects and at best of all no more group projects. Although its weird to have this chapter of my life come to an end, I’m so excited to start the next.

What I wore:

Hello There :)

Dress: JCREW (Can't find online, in store on sale though!)

Jacket: Zara

Shoes: Target

Necklace: JCREW Factory (old)

I didn't really take many pictures in my outfit, the majority (all except this one) are in my cap and gown :). But now that school is over, and my travels have ended (sadly) you can actually expect post from me (frequently too.) I truly love blogging because it constantly teaches me new things and concepts.

Cheers, Jennifer :)
