021: i want to do bad things with you (mini giveaway!)

Hey guys~ Can anyone guess the reference in the title?


Anyways, I've been running around like crazy with work. I haven't been taking many outfits due to my attire being all black. It's going to get boring really fast~

Wednesday

Wig~

I recently received a wig I ordered online back in October~ I was kind of disappointed when received it and it wasn't what I expected. It looks good in photos, but in person, the fibres are very cheap, thin and shiny. The wig isn't very thick and tangles very easily. I guess I got what I paid for, though~ I guess it's fine for simple photoshoots or something. Also, the outfit is something I wore to hang out with friends.

Recently, I've been working really close to the mall. It's great, but also a bit of a problem because on my break I might end up buying something :P I'm doing my best to keep them cheap or practical~ An extra black blouse to wear to work from Dynamite, some arm warmers from H&M for the in between Canadian weather and some Lush cuticle cream. The arm warmers were $2 each! I bought a couple and double of the black because I ended up really liking them.

I ran into a few good sales at work. Tuesday, I ended up buying the black Lord and Taylor cardigan because it was on sale~ I bought it for about 50% off on sale, including my discount. It's so luxurious! It's made of 100% merino wool and is softer than any of the sweaters I currently own. I'm a sucker for wool, and the style of the sweater is just perfect! I know I will wear this often, whether I'm working or going out, so it's worth every pretty penny~

The socks I'm wearing above were also BOGO sale at my work. I had been secretly coveting them for a while, so I took advantage of the sale. They also came in robin's egg blue and bubblegum pink!

On that same Tuesday, they opened up the new Eaton Centre Sephora location! I foolishly went in to take a look at the new setup, only to walk out with a Shu Uemura lash curler. As soon as I saw they now carried Shu Uemura, I couldn't stop myself from buying the lash curler~ I'd heard so many good things about it, and had been secretly coveting it for a year now! I also received a free tote with my purchase~ Very much worth it. :)

Working also tempts me into buying lots of food! Everyday at work, I pass by a lovely displays of sweets~ I caved in over the week and bought a slice of Black and White cake. The gentleman serving the food cut me an incredibly large slice! I couldn't finish it in one sitting and ate it for "breakfast" the next day.

Speaking of breakfast, I ended up eating the cupcakes I bought yesterday~ That's adult lyfe~ I learned, though, that I have a way of getting them for free! Hahahaha, hacked the system :P

015: it's easy to blame the weather

The weather was pretty awful today. Just another song title, too.

I went out yesterday to run some errands with my mum, which included buying new pants. I've lost a lot of weight this year, and it's come to the point were a lot of my clothes don't fit. It's easy to fudge sizes for dresses or tops, wearing a bigger size is no big deal. However, I now no longer have any pants that stay up on my hips without the help of a belt. It doesn't help that I haven't been able to find any of my belts. The skirt I'm wearing is actually quite loose on me now. It used to be snug and curve hugging.

Monday, errands with mum

Anyways, mom and I went to the H&M where I got the skinniest pleather pants. It's the one that Lana Del Ray is wearing in the promotional photos. I lamented over which colour to buy, black or burgundy, as if it were an existential crisis. I ended up getting the black since I could match it to everything I own, and figured if I lost sleep over the burgundy pants, I could always exchange it for the black or buy it. I need more pants anyways. I also picked up another pair of pants and a dress for my Halloween costume.

Figure hugging clothes~

I hit a bit of a fashion wall today, and ended up wearing the plain pants. It was pretty convenient. Pants today let me be lazy. My brother also gave me a cute hat I wore most of the day. Lazy, cozy wear is the best for fashion rut days~ It didn't help that the weather was awful.

Tuesday, lazy day

Hopefully, I'll be in a more dressy mood tomorrow.

Later days~
