Purple top and a scarf from Dynamite. Leggings and leg warmers from AmericanApparel. Bag from Le Chateau. Wrap from Forever 21. Booties from Spring Shoes.

This is NOT a sponsored post but I also want to write about one of my new favorite stores: DYNAMITE! I’ve been shopping there a lot recently because their clothing fits me like a glove and if you’re like me who goes through clothes like cans of Rockstar, they are super affordable. Dynamite has beautiful yet simple basics you can really layer and accessorize to create an outfit that suits anyone’s style and for endless occasions. My favorite buys from them, so far is my white blazer and of course, my shiny leggings!

Got so much stuff yesterday when I was “forced” to go to the mall to run errands and also in the mail. This doesn’t account for my “forced” shopping ventures on Wednesday and Thursdays too. I still have a couple packages waiting for me at Point Roberts but I’m too lazy to pick them up right now.

• When you find great staples, always stock up. I found these great tank tops that are great for layering and immediately stocked up on them because they were on-sale on the clearance rack (2/$30) and I was scared that I was going to lose them like I usually do with my staples (don’t ask).
• Got this really cute pink lacy tie that I’m dying to wear. It’d look great with Miss Tia’s lolita hat! I was trying to learn how to tie a tie yesterday from Youtube videos and eventually gave up. Who knew it could be so hard?
• I love my huge purple hobo bag (not pictured yet). I’m just disappointed because this one doesn’t have a divider and as many pockets as the other purple bag I was eyeing (but I didn’t like the shape of that one). I’ll have to get some bag organizers.
• Saw the SEXIEST pair of studded gladiator heels ever but they were 5″ high and I would’ve never worn them because I’m tall enough already.
• It’s spring and I’m still buying scarves… just can’t get enough of them.
• The Coastal Scents concealer palette is so awesome! Totally recommended.
• I bought my first maxi dress! I’ve been wanting to get one for so long.
• I went on another accessory splurge again on Wednesday. I need to buy more bangles and cocktail rings for summer because I usually don’t like wearing [chunky] necklaces on hot summer days.

Happy 22^nd, N! Aw where's {link:http://merissa.vox.com/}Mer{/link}?

I finally went to buy a new pair of prescription sunglasses today! I have a pair with Coach frames for driving because I hate wearing contact lenses but I decided to get another one so I can keep it in my bag instead of my car. Of course, I was looking for Dior frames (my favorite!) but the styles I liked were too curvy to support prescription lenses so they were all out of the question. It came down to either the pair I’m wearing in the picture with a deep red frame or a more squarish black Fendi frame but I chose the other ones and don’t even remember what brand they were! Oh well, at least I’m not a brand-whore. I chose a light brown gradient tint for the lens and grand total? FREE! All covered by insurance.

Speaking of brand-whores, my boyfriend is slowly turning into one. He use to yell at me for spending $70+ on a t-shirt but he bought an expensive t-shirt and said, “whatever, it’s only $70.” Umm ok, hypocrite! I don’t think I was ever a brand-whore and neither was he; as long as the clothes look good but now he’s always checking the brand. As long as he doesn’t wear Ed Hardy, CA or any “gangster-wannabe” t-shirts with retarded designs on them, then I’m okay with it. At least he’s turning into more of a shopaholic now! Now, he can hold my bags AND shop with me. ♥

Are you a brand-whore?

Did I also mention that…
