I entered Ann's give-away months ago and won a whole slew of make-up goodies. She gave away three different packages (all with similar items but in different shades and colours) and I won this one. I've been wanting to try out the Cover Girl mascara and I'm absolutely in love with my new Mac fluidline liner (look at that green! Pure love). On top of that, I've never tried any Stilla products and the two Cover Girl lip products are fantastic and the perfect (coral-y) colours. Thanks so much, Ann!

Do you have any shoes / boots that you absolutely adore but rarely wear? These fall into that category for me. I've had them for almost four years but they don't get a ton of play. When they do come out, they get tons of compliments and / or looks (and they hurt my feet). I spent a pretty penny on them ($170 - which maybe for some of you isn't a lot, but to me, that's a nice chunk of change for one pair... now that's not to say I've never splurged...), but am absolutely glad I purchased despite the fact they rest in my shoe room most of the time.
PS - It's March 1st!! It's only uphill from here, baby!
I just want to give a special 'hello/thank-you/welcome' to all my loyal readers and new readers too. Your comments really make my day and I'm so happy you're here. If there's anything in particular you'd like to see or read about, drop me a line, I'd love to hear from you!
Stop. Just stop it. How amazing are these Chloe wedges? Ahh, I'm completely lusting after them. Wait, what's that you say? They're still available in my size? Shut up. No. Seriously shut up, because I can't afford you.
"can't afford" = $457

Do you ever wear the belt that came with something? I never do. Okay, it's super rare. This is no exception. I was itching to pair this navy and white dress with a yellow belt but didn't have one. I looked through all my belts and the closest thing was a light lime green belt. That is until I remembered I had this belt, which I don't think I've ever worn, that came with this dress. Perfect! Done & done.
I am seriously itching for warmer weather so I can get back to taking photos outside, this is seriously a tease.
Finally, this dress was purchased on a recently shopping trip with my girl friend. It's from Zellers. Yes, Zellers. I paid $35 for it, and it's lined. Pretty, 'eh? And no, that's not my real hair.
I wear this blazer a lot but I never roll up the sleeves to reveal the you're-suppose-to-reveal pattern (stripes). I just feel like everyone and their mother rolls up their blazer sleeves, that's 'the look' and I don't necessarily want to be 'the look', I want to make my own look. I made an exception this time because I loved the idea of the two patterns playing with each other (the dress and the stripes).
After seeing Maegan's DIY for adding fur to your shoes (and boots), I immediately jumped in my car (okay, I showered first) and headed out on a mission to get some faux fur from Fabricland. Maegan used faux fur trim for hers, but unfortunately the only trim at my store was white and dark purple (which I contemplated, but passed up). I really wanted a tan coloured fur, or as a second resort black or grey. I left the fabric store feeling defeated but then remembered Walmart sold faux fur rugs. I took a chance and amongst the hot pink, lime green, black, white and dark grey there was (woohoo!) this tan colour. $20 for the rug makes it cheaper than buying faux fur by the meter at the fabric store ($38/m) too - score. Excited, I ran home and started cutting apart the rug and voila. Head to Meagan's blog to check out the full DIY.
