DIY - Uniqlo Denim Vest

So after looking around for a reasonably priced denim vest, I finally decided to make my own. On one of my random lunchtime outings at Uniqlo, I found this $20 jacket in the sale section which was perfect for my experiment. I couldn't wait to get my scissors on it, and once it was done I was pleasently suprised. It's the perfect layering piece for this undecisive weather...cool in the morning and warm in the afternoon. Over a hoodie on the chilly days, and over a dress during the summer. Loves it! xo, B

Birthday Surprise - Satya Necklace

Aww...I love my coworkers! I was surprised today with this amazing bday present, a Satya necklace with a Lotus flower (meaning "infinite potential") and a tree of life (symbolizing "the union of heaven and earth"). This is one of my fave jewelry companys since it has such pretty and delicate pieces with great meanings. Loves...and the funny thing about this gift, is that I like to give these necklaces as gifts to others, but never ended up getting one for myself. And low and behold, my BFFL listens to my endless babbles, and remembered how much I wanted one. Thanks peeps...love y'all! xo, B

No 6 vs Swedish Hasbeens

Okay...I received the Swedish Hasbeens clogs in black (the ones below), and they are so narrow, it felt like my feet were going to go numb from walking around in them for like 5 minutes! And to top it off, the leather is so stiff, it barely gives at all. So, they are going back to Endless, one of the most convenient websites, and I went immediately to the No 6 store to order my custom clogs. Yippee...now my impatient ass will have to wait 3 weeks for these bad boys, but that's the price I have to pay for my wide feet! lol

I also have to say, that after visiting the store, there are so many options and colors you can do for the clogs, who wouldn't want to get them there. The leathers are way more buttery and soft too, they will definitely be able to break in to be one of my fave shoes. I'm already eyeing the booties for Fall, these will be my test run. Can't wait! xo, B

Guess who scored these gorg Louis Vuitton Zesty heels!? Yup...I know, don't be jealous! lol I've only been sporting these bad boys in the office for right now...but they deserve their debut soon. They are amazeballs...love them! xo, B

Maya Brenner Necklace

So of course, true to form, I've been shopping all month long in celebration of my upcoming birthday...and when Hautelook had a sale on Maya Brenner's initial necklaces, I jumped at the chance! Unfortunately the B necklace was sold out...so I resorted to an R...not my fave initial, but it works. It's so simple and delicate, I love to wear it everyday, and it's easy to layer. xo, B
