Figured I deserved a break from doing school work, so I treated my self by indulging and feeling even worse about being materialistic. ha. Don't you love fashion?

How delightful, my midnight snack. How I love you Colette.
Tell me now, who never craves Chanel? Ever since I saw this photo, it's all I've been craving for. I've been so frugal lately (besides the leather jacket I invested in yesterday, ha.) and I feel that this item is incredibly necessary to have, yet I never made the effort to look it up and hunt it down. Alas, I'm waiting on some incoming moolah to blow on some much needed Chanel. "Buying into the dream..." But where do you get such a large compact mirror!!?? Tell me!

Shoes galore! :) I was pretty psyched to be trying on theses bad boys all day, since I'm the generic display size seven. I was convinced shoes would come in at 9 and 10 for the models of course but since the marketing director does e-talk episodes she pulled display sizes, aka - my size. Pretty sweet! I got to catalog some Louboutins, Elizabeth and James, Jimmy Choo's for H&M, and great Aldo designer rips like YSL and Balmain. Unfortunately I didnt get to photograph some of the garments that got pulled for the episode from Holts such as Alexander Wang (my fav!!), D&G, Helmut Lang and a couple H&M Fall samples. I would say being surrounded by designer shoes and clothes with the addition of being at the office when FLARE hosts their monthly birthday parties with cheese cake and strawberries, today was a great day.
Have a great rest of the week! 
ALSO! Great news! I'm going to be at the 30th Anniversary Gala Event for FLARE, and I get suited up by JOE FRESH, head to toe. *Cross fingers we get to keep the whole get up!

120 Models! Look at the shoes!!! And it`s Fashion`s Night Out TONIGHT!
Wish I was in NY.
Alexander Wang: Lamb skin sleeves with an a-line biker style denim jacket
$1500 price tag
Urban Outfitters: Faux leather sleeves and collar, and button down denim body.
$138 Price tag.
Not bad, I would settle for a denim vest layered over a leather jacket.
But obviously, I'm still going to Urban Outfitters to try it on. Ha.
Acne Atacoma Black Metal - Why hello lover. For $410, I suppose it's affordable. :)
This photo does not represent how I feel about returning to school only after 30 days of summer. LAME. Although this photo does represent how I feel about my internship. HA. So silly. I bagged an internship at a fashion magazine, FLARE! I'm enjoying my placement there, it has been amazing being surrounded my designer clothes, accessories and shoes. Not to brag, but coming from a small town with the only high end store being a Holt Renfrew, and Last Call, it's not everyday that I get to be surrounded by high end luxury pieces. The dream. Ha. Although, my fellow interns are jaded because they've worked for Holts and see this everyday. I promised myself to never be jaded like them and as wide eyed and excited as I am to see a shoe with a red sole, my heart will continue to race!
Today was the first day back to school. Eight months until I graduate, what?! I'm unbelievably extatic! Big plans and big dreams to chase.
Life is good.
