Denim Bomber Jacket

I picked up this acid wash denim jacket while shopping in Harajuku and I love it! The denim is actually quite soft, almost a chambray, and the gray hood is also detachable! They only had one size available (M), but I love the fit; it's not tight or restricting, but it's not so big that you feel like you're drowning in it. The stitching pattern and the cut are very unique; needless to say, I'm in love~

I've been seeing unicorns on graphic t's everywhere for spring! I don't mean to be a debbie-downer, but I'm not sure if I'm a fan...maybe I'm just getting old. What do you guys think?

Aubrey Cross Body Bag

All my life I've been lugging around impractically large handbags. What was I thinking?? I never realised how much of a chore it was until I started university. It really does drain a lot of energy and makes running errands that much more troublesome.

That being said, say hello to my new best friend!



 I've never heard of the brand 'Aubrey,' but the jack rabbit on the tag was oddly comforting--it was obviously meant to be.


I purchased this baby on ASOS in their late summer sale. When I opened the package I was surprised that the colour of the leather was leaning more towards a deep brown, because the photos on the website were definitely a cream but this is good! I was specifically looking for a brown/tan bag anyway.


As you can see the inside is very small, and I welcome this wholeheartedly. No room for nonsense. I wore it out yesterday and it looked as great as I felt wearing it. I can tell that we're going to get along very well.

Trending: Cross Jewelry


I've been noticing a lot of cross jewelry circulating the internet, and I'm obviously a big fan (a bit late hopping on the bandwagon, but whatever)! I was never really into jewelry until recently, but that was because I never thought that jewelry really suited me (tomboy problems). That being said, I tend to gravitate towards very simple jewelry.


I must have been living under a rock until recently because I had never heard of ASOS until a few months ago.  What I like about ASOS, apart from their free international shipping, is that their jewelry selection is very trendy and affordable. I picked up these large cross earrings for 11 dollars, and while I do really enjoy them, the backs of them are hollowed out. That was disappointing, but I guess you get what you pay for. Their size can be pretty intimidating, but while they're a bit large I feel that you can easily pull them off if you have a very simple outfit; letting the jewelry be the statement piece(s).


I was recently at The Bay and the 'Material Girl' line had some items on sale. As you could see from the first picture, this came in a pack of three with a pair of diamond studs, as well as a pair of peace-sign studs-- but in truth I only plan on wearing the cross hoop-earrings. They're very simple and they're not too big, making them very cute and a lot easier to wear compared to the ASOS cross earrings.


I first saw this sideways-cross necklace being sported by Laura of buynowbloglater. I thought it was so feminine and unique..needles to say I finally caved and got my own. The chain is thin and dainty so it gives it a nice feminine touch, and it would look really nice if you layered it with more gold-toned necklaces. 

hope you're all taking advantage of the late summer-sales!
