3.1 Phillip Lim Berry Carryall Wristlet

Sometimes I don't feel like carrying around a tote or a clutch or a satchel or a cross-over or even my wallet, and the wristlet times of 2005 are long gone. Adding a purse to my look can be tedious and a hassle, as I don't feel like being responsible for such an important item. My wallet is not big enough sometimes (I have many different kinds...) to hold my phone, keys, and lip balm (my three essentials). My old Coach and Gucci wristlets are outdated and again... not big enough. So when I saw Phillip Lim's new wristlet creation, I instantly fell head over heels. It has a strap inside to keep my phone in place!! (my phone always tends to slip out and fall hopelessly onto the concrete pavement.) It comes in ruby, onyx, and honey-hued lambskin and embossed-calfskin, and some also comes with a strap. With Spring and Summer just around the corner, my schedule is expected to consist of more outdoor activities such as concerts and leisurely bike rides around the town. A major plus is the zipper to enclose everything inside. It's just so cute and practical... I think we all needs this.

Ears for Easter

Easter is coming up this weekend! Considering my religion, I know bunnies and eggs have nothing to do with the origin of Easter but I can't help to admit that I would most definitely wear these ears for the pagan side of this holiday. This is Benoit Missolin's Miss Fortuna glass-pearl headband, currently on retail for 270 EUR, equivalent to 357.72 USD. It's a ridiculous amount of money for a set of ears, but it's this idea of cute chic-ness that I like. With something like this on your head, you wouldn't need a cotton tail or a bunny suit. I wish it came in pink, yellow, or white. That would make this 10x more adorable!

Boy. to launch Girl.

(my faves from Spring 2010 RTW)

To all of you Boy by Band of Outsiders fans!! Scott Sternberg is in the process of launching a lower-priced women's line for Boy., which is said to be called Girl. Like Balmain, Boy.'s price points are unattainable for the rest of us, unless you have disposable income like Beyonce and Jay-Z. (unfortunately Balmain's "blue label" was only a rumor...) Hopefully Mr. Sternberg can confirm all this talk about Girl. so that I can finally have my bandaged skirt and perfectly tailored blazers. That would be dope. Ya digg?

Topshop Cut-Out Denim Leggings

Would you consider these a bit risque? I'd rock 'em (you know I would). I saw a girl wearing a pair similar to this but with what looked like mid-thigh biker shorts underneath (to cover her panties of course). It is a safer route but I didn't like it much. It cut the flow of the cut-outs, which is the only focal point of this pair. But I suppose a more conservative gal wouldn't want to show so much skin all the way up her hip. Me, on the other hand, don't care as much for conservatism. I like a little crazy in my looks. This is going in my purchase today. Yayyer :)
