Glitter in your Veins

  IMG_6535 IMG_6543

haha….First picture I am peeling off part of a value village price tag that I forgot on the bottom of my shoe…yep, so classy! Watched 2012 and I must say that although the graphics pleased my eyes….it was HIGHLY predictable…extremely far fetched (but that was to be expected)…and super long! Still a good time since we went with our friends…After that super long movie….naturally, my bladder was bursting after having consumed disgusting amounts of coke (which  rarely ever drink)…so we stopped at a gas station on the way home…where I found a cute little pink touch tone cell phone… the girl was super happy that I saved it for her…called the “home” number and told her she could pick it up….honestly, it felt good. Tempting to want to keep such a nice phone BUT being one that has already lost about 4 cell phones and not had one returned….I know exactly how it feels!…

I still can’t get over how the days are getting so much shorter!! so quickly….by the time I have lunch, its already getting dark and almost night-time. So please bear with me guys! I promise to do my best….

This weekend was also Jimmy Choo for H&M launch….my girlfriend and I were going to go on Saturday….until we remembered the catastrophe at H&M during Roberto Cavalli’s launch….OMG!! I have never seen so much estrogen, crazy flailing arms and fighting for items –ANY item …in my life! Not even on boxing day! So……we passed…people apparently are already trading sizes on Craigslist….haha….I wanted one of those chunky bracelets though….and sexy beaded shirt dress….oh well…

I would love to know if any of you made it out! let me know how it went this year…I was too chicken to troop it out (and wait in line for 5 hours…:s)

Hope you had a great weekend! XOX

Gorgeous! As always.

I love the boots!
I went to the eaton centre H&M on friday in the evening, totally not realizing that that's when the Jimmy Choo thing was happening. It wasn't that crazy when I went, but there was hardly anything left, and what was left was being snatched up by anyone who was coming in, so I'm happy I missed all the craziness!

Connie said...

Loving the color co-ordination you've got going on; pink with the black over it.

I know your just peeling off a tag, but its a fun pose with those nylons on...

bad ass sunglasses I must say!!

Cara said...

The Eaton Centre H&M still had several of the pieces of jewelry left after the craziness subsided on Saturday... so you may want to pop in on the off chance what you were looking for is still there.

I still can't believe you thrifted those boots! I think as a fellow Torontonian you owe it to me to tell me which Vallue Village you frequent....it's only fair!

FAbulous boots, so jealous!

I don't do well with store openings...it's bad news to me. i have no patience for shoppers in general, so when they are in a frenzy. UGH. I'd rather Ebay it :P

Daphne said...

Good things WILL happen to you for giving the phone back! Karma is a tricky mistress.

Also loving the lace tights. I am all over lace things for winter.

Ela said...

Those boots are from Value Village? Shut up!!!

I made it to (or should I say survived?) the sale. I've never done the crazy H&M collab madness before but did it for the Choo. It was madness and I stood frozen - like frozen as I just didn't know what to do when I got in there. Pure chaos and I'm just not cut out for it.
Eek, I just returned the chunky bracelet yesterday. I would've passed it onto you! Try calling some of the H&Ms to see if they've got returns...you just never know. Good luck!

wreckedstellar said...

funny that i just read this post- think i'm seeing 2012 tonight over blind side :) i totally understand about the dark nights- it's crazy how soon the sun goes down now and also sad! i didn't make it out to jimmy choo- but i was passing through a mall on my way to a restaurant and stopped in and grabbed a multi-sparkle glitter sweater knit dress w/o trying it on- luckily it fits! love your lace tights! have a great weekend!

mary_ronaldo said...

I haven't been to any of the previous designer collections, so the Jimmy Choo collection was the first one for me. I got there at 7:20AM and the lineup was already down the block! Apparently some people had slept overnight so they could get a wristband! And it was zero degrees that night too! Crazy!I took some pictures and posted them on my blog if you want to check it out. I think this will be my first and last collection that I'll line up for... unless I change my mind. LOL.
