Aritzia Haul

Not feeling well so I'm just going to post some stuff I bought recently for my trip to Mexico next month. I'm excited but all I can utter is a lacklustre "yay."

Ebay ♥ Brights

It's spring and I want to look like I could belong in one of Carmen Miranda's hats!


I like blacks and neutrals even though if you were to look in my closet, you would see a cornucopia of electric hues and crazy-ass prints. I stick to a simple colour palette but I just love colour and collecting pretty clothes and Ebay is a mecca for colour. Seriously, I love how I can type so many permutations of one colour and get so many results.

Take pink, for instance. You know how when you go into a store and you're looking for something specific but whatever you find just isn't quite the exact colour you want? When I do a pink search on Ebay, I usually do pink, coral pink, salmon, blush, fuchsia pink, neon pink, bright pink, rose pink and dusty rose. That way, no matter how specific my colour is, I'm sure to pass something that suits my meticulous pink needs.

Anyway, here are a bunch of cool bright-coloured items I've stumbled upon over the past few weeks, some of which are still up for auction.


Seafoam green suede leather minidress
SOLD for $183.49

Orange linen cotton top w/ cut-out back
SOLD for $51.00  



SOME OF THESE ITEMS ARE STILL AVAILABLE!!

Yellow drapey poly-rayon blazer

Hot pink leather high waisted shorts
SOLD for $33.04

I wish I could buy EVERYTHING but I'm going on vacation in May and I'm trying to be good and save my moolah. Money will come in handy when I want a massage on the beach or take a day-trip to the Mayan ruins.

Club Monaco Shorts

I am now an employee of Aritzia and finally have some money to add a few Fall pieces to my wardrobe before the Spring collections usurp the racks! I celebrated by picking up a pair of leather shorts that I've been eying at Club Monaco for forever.


I think I visited that store about 5 times in the past 2 months, surreptitiously checking to see if the $99 tag had dropped at all. I knew the price was a BARGAIN (I have no qualms with spending hundreds of dollars on shorts); the only problem was that I was unemployed and could barely fork over $7 for a McDonald's meal.
