Sam Edelman has come out with a new version of the Sophie Low wedges I purchased and loved so much last year (see them here with a skirt, here with pants & here with denim shorts; jeeze I miss summer!).
I'm tempted to pick up the Serena's but torn on the colour. I love that I can wear a lower heel and still feel really stylish and put together; something this shoe definitely accomplishes.

Outfit deets:
* Dynamite blazer (old) which you've seen in a navy/black outfit, with a pretty dress for a fancy event & with a leopard dress for my 2011 resolutions (!).
* H&M cheetah top (seen back in 2010 in an outfit I still love) with lace Ardene bandeau underneath.
* H&M waxed pants which you've seen with hi-top wedge sneakers, also with a cardigan and cap-top heels (a fave) and a printed top and nude wedges.
* Aldo wedges that are a fave (and old) seen last with a skirt and hunt green chiffon top.
* Accessories: MK watch, Aldo belt (super old) & three Suzy snake necklaces looped together & held with a hoop earring at the back to create a shorter, chunky necklace.
Hey everyone! Just popping in to share my New Years Resolution (yes, I'm a little late to the party, but I wasn't planning on creating any resolutions so here here!).
Since I'm a natural 'saver', as we've discussed before, I thought my NY Resolution should be to post more spontaneously. So often I have ideas for posts or pictures to use, and I don't. I save the idea, I save the pictures, thinking I will use them at a later date, or for when I experience bloggers-block etc. and often the idea gets lost, the pictures are then out-dated (at least to me) and I'm wishing I had just used them in the first place.
Additionally, sometimes I'm afraid to put too much out there, for you guys to be like, 'Ugh, it's enough, too many social media outlets!' but then again, when I think of the bloggers I like to follow, the more pictures, posts and sharing of their life, the better!
So, officially, post with more abandonnment. Here goes nothing!
This is a shot from when I got home; waxed pants + slipper booties, epic combo.
Have you checked out Vine yet? It's a new social media app, similar to Instagram (on steroids), but it plays looping videos of about five seconds long. It's quickly blowing up and of course, being a social media lovah, I jumped on (and was happy to see many of my favourite bloggers using it too).
I have only managed to post one video thus far but I think this weekend will prove to hold some fun videos. You can find me under ACoest1984 (like everything else).
January was a great month (despite the frigid temps) and I thought since it's a new year, I would start a new monthly recap at the end of each month; a look back of sorts.
This month I blogged about the year 2012, got my first gel manicure and hung some art in my apartment (finally, and with the help of someone special).
I DIY'ed a cute sweatshirt, bought some leopard-print ankle booties and got more comfortable with my 'nerd' glasses. I replaced the second-hand black curtains (that were on lend from my bestie) in my room to metallic silver and frolicked in the snow (correction: stood in the snow and had my picture taken).
I attended an amazing surf 'n turf dinner (we made a video HERE), ate breakfast at Broadways every weekend and painted my nails a pretty pink. I wore polka dot pants, re-pierced my third hole, wore a sparkly skirt and shopped the Zara semi-annual sale. I also picked up a sweet pair of red kicks to take me into Spring.
After such positive and great feedback on last week's discussion (thank you!), I've decided to post these on Wednesday's and call them our, Let's Chat posts. Please chime in within the comments below, I love hearing from you all, and it's fun to interact.
When I was single, I went on several dates and remember one date asking me if I ever kissed on the first date. What a surprising question and one I had to think about it. The answer was no, since being re-single, but not because I think it's bad. In fact, I don't think there is anything wrong with a kiss on the first date, but for me, up until that point, I guess I never felt comfortable with most dates or ready for that step.

Kissing can be so intimate, or it can be so impersonal. I remember not having any reservations about it when I was younger, but as I've gotten older, I totally shy away from the idea, as if it's something I reserve for a few dates in.
What about you, do you kiss on the first date? Or did you?
Other Let's Chat posts you may have missed:
* Do you wash your clothes before you wear them?
I've been semi-on the hunt for a black watch (I have a cheapie one, but never wear it because I don't love it and haven't gotten the band sized) and this one has been swooning. There are a few different styles of The Time Teller, but this one with the gold clasp and features steals my heart. So. Nice.
