Krikor Jabotian

I was browsing through the web and came across designer Krikor Jabotian.*SIGH, Let me tell you-He is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! OMGah, words cannot even express how I felt looking through his collection. I loved, LOVED everything about it. The color, texture, you name it.
According to an article I read online, Krikor Jabotian is a 24 year old, (yes, so young and talented!) Lebanese designer making his way into the fashion world. You can definitely read more about him at here and here.
In the mean time, here are some of his BEAUTIFUL dresses from his older collection.

H&M SALE

If you didn't know, H&M is having a CRAZY GOOD SALE going on right now! I've made a few trips there at my local mall and bought something each trip. I know as a college student who is home for the summer and who doesn't have a job shouldn't be spending money on clothing, BUT I cannot help it=/ These sales are just to good of a deal to past up! *Sigh, I'll be going to the mall tomorrow again and HOPEFULLY, I can restrain myself from buying more clothes! HOWEVER-I shouldn't feel to bad right since all of the clothing I buy are usually always on sale. I seriously don't remember a time where I bought any clothing for full price, unless it was under $20.00.
In the meantime, here are photos of some of my best steals (no, not steal as in actually stealing).
H&M Cropped Top
Originally: $7.??
Sale:$3.00
Plain and simple the way I like things! I couldn't resist the $3.00 and bought three of them. The gray, coral and navy (not pictured) ones. Since these were the last ones on the shelf, they were all large (I usually wear mediums). Nevertheless, they still fit me fine.
I'll post up more photos from my H&M sale hauls very soon.

Madden Girl.

Hello, hello! I just wanted to share with you all a recent purchase of high heels I bought yesterday at DSW. They were originally $44.94, but was on clearance for 40% off. My total purchase came out to be $26.96. I have always been a flat girl and would only wore high heels to special occasions, but NOW, I'm inlove with heels and would def. wear them with my everyday outfits! LOL, I want to get more pairs of them in all sorts of cuts, designs, and colors. So, this pair of heels will be the official start of my new heels collection.
What really attracted me to this particular pair of heels was the design of it. I've seen a lot of gladiator style heels, but never one like this. The thick leather straps that laces up reminds me of a ballerina and the plat form of the shoes reminds me of a rocker chick. I can't wait to wear these babies out and start her story.

Zipia.Net

I came across www.zipia.net in middle school and loved LOVED loved all of the clothes that were sold on the website. Zipia is an online mall where one can purchase clothing from different Korean brands. There are endless selections of clothing for all types of occasion for BOTH men and women. Unfortunately, today still, in order to purchase the items on this website, one needs to have a minimum order of $300 u.s dollars. Perhaps one day when I get a real world job, I'll make an order on this website,
Nevertheless, I still love coming onto this website to just look at what's new and in, in the Korean fashion trends.If you guys haven't checked it out yet, you guys should! However, I believe one will have to make an account before you can view the clothing sold. If you have to, you should just do it. I guarantee you'll go back on the website just to look at all the different styles of clothing=)

Here are some of my favorite styles from the website:

♥Betseyville IPOD Case♥

I remember the first thing I wanted to do when my brother gave me his old ipod was to get a cute case for it. I was, and still am today, a sucker for anything cute! Browsing through the shelves of cases at Best Buy, I couldn't seem to find anything cute or to my liking UNTIL- I came across a cute collection of ipod cases by Betsey Johnson, called "Betseyville." I was super excited and probably spent at least thirty minutes debating on which design to get for my case. Blue or Pink? Haha, tough decision right? Well in the end, I decided to get the blue studded case and couldn't be happier. Here are some recent pictures of me showcasing the cute case I got three years ago. LOL, please don't mind my messy hair.
Betseyville
Can you believe I haven't uploaded any new songs into my IPOD for almost three years now! Phew, talk about how fast time flies by. So this summer, one of my summer projects is to re-vamp my playlist and add new songs and music videos into my ipod. I guess one of the reasons why I haven't been consistent with uploading new songs onto it is because I really don't carry it anywhere with me and only listen to it when I'm on the bus/plane back home from college. However, this year, I will make more use of it and carry it with me wherever I go. Haha, sometimes I just can't help but to wish I had "Stuck In The Moment" by Justin Bieber playing when I'm on the six hour+ bus ride home.
