My Obsession Series


Hopefully I will now have some time to post these series. It is going to be one thing I am currently obsessed with. It used to be the Maybelline lipstick and the fire-engine-orangey red nail polish.

Now, it is a RED trench coat. Yes, it's a bit late in the game - getting kind of cold now. BUT! They are all on insane sale and they beckon!

I now own this gorgeous piece that made me prance around the apartment in glee. I managed to snag it for $100. YAY!

However, I suggest several hawtt pieces that you may like.

Nordstrom has a great one -- the color is punchy and the style is quite short.

I don't recommend a coat I found in Guess stores-- it is actually a peacoat and it looks a bit cheap. It is on sale for $49.99. I mean, it's alright, but nothing to write home about.

Also, enjoy the www.shopstyle.com which lets you refine any wardrobe piece anyway you want -- color, price, brand, store, sale, etc. Great tool for um smart shoppers like me.

I am free! for now!

Alright, since my law school let me go for the summer to frolic in the sun and probably to volunteer, I will continue this blog for now.  Time to recount my new obsessions

1.  A good color block maxi dress.  

Now, my favorite one has been off the shelves.   I mourn the French Connection color block maxi dress.  It was gorgeous, flowy and glam.

However, I present to you another hottie.  It is a better deal, just as beautiful, flowy and sexy, but a more casual version.  Look at this gorgeousness!  Comes in black, too.  

2.  A citrusy red nail polish.  

I loved the Essie Tangerine -- it is SO fantastic for the summer!  This color is like taking a furious fuck you skinny dip off a cliff while having your picture taken unbeknownst to you.  It's like punching summer in the face and then having a drink with it at the local pub.  

OPI has a very comparable color -- I think it's called "a True Ab-Original".  If you want a tiny little bottle to try on for size, pick up a tiny $5 sampler bottle from Sephora.  I recommend L09 Passion.  I have one in burgundy too -- you know that wine/burgundy color craze that came and went.  

3.  A pair of Chanel sunglasses I cannot track!  They are kind of shield-y, have gradient lenses, and have a small and simple black plastic Chanel logo on the black plastic arms.  Fuck! Anyone?!  

4.  Maybelline Moisture Extreme lip color.  OK, I HATE lipsticks, seriously.  But this one spanked me raw!  It is truly soft, does not feel tacky or waxy, and it has a great yet subtle smell, like watermelon or candy.  I am a new woman, Maybelline's bitch almost.  My favorite is Nude Blush G132.  

Truly yours
