Fall in love and don’t get back up

IMG_3620 IMG_3621 IMG_3650IMG_3637

My little brother is BACK! I was so excited to pick him up at the airport….he got taller too….he is a little taller than me and before he left he was just almost my height! It was also J’s dad’s birthday so I passed by to give him a gift that we both bought him (some Hurley shorts and a tee in dark green, his favourite colour)…I ate TONS of cake, cheese, prosciutto, lamb chops…..the amount of food was just endless….

This dress in these pictures above is another Value Village find….I was SO excited when I found it because it is by one of my favourite designer brands…Religion….it is all silk and chiffon material and has a bunch of metal chains around the neckline….very flowing and loose fitting. I picked it up a while ago for $8! Paired it with my new Kenneth Cole blazer =)

Lastly, It has been confirmed that I will be going to New York soon! I can’t wait because I LOVE the city….I have always preferred the city over the more relaxed atmosphere of the country side…. So its New York and then off to Oregon a week later …good thing I'm picking up my passport tomorrow…wasn't expecting these trips to come up so soon….any suggestions on places to visit are much appreciated!

It was basically three pieces paired together…my Talulah crop top that I wore here along with the same skirt by Wilfred just in black….and then to kick it up a bit and add some volume I tied this Forever 21 skirt up high..it really poofed out which I liked and you cant really see in this picture…sorry for the bad quality of the shot….it is pretty much the only one I have…as you can tell I wore my extensions…my hair was pretty much three colours all mixed together..still need to make really blonde ones and I will do a tutorial when I do!

SHUUUUUUT UP!!! I LOVE NYC! My mate is going in Jan but I can' go :o(

You HAVE to go to TopShop! They just opened on in NYC. Some friends went to London this summer and I asked them to bring me ANYTHING from TopShop but they never made it :o( But they did bring me some lovely gifts!

When you come to NYC go to Soho and all the down time areas...great boutiques and amazing restaurants. I think you will appreciate the street syle there as well! :)
