Clarissa Knows it all

Okay if you know me in real life you know that I've been obsessed with these mystery sandals I scooped in my polyvore favourites.

Well all I knew was they are called "Clarissa" and they are sold out and only ever available in japanese and UK stores online... until now. Through another spotting of them in an unknown electric blue- again on polyvore- I am pleased to report that according to this article they will be available for purchase this spring. I AM EVEN MORE PLEASED TO REPORT YOU CAN ACTUALLY BUY THEM HERE. So I am forever swooning.

Silver and Gold... But Mostly Silver AKA my thoughts on the Holographic Trend

Are you noticing a trend?
 Obviously silver, but also these fantastic $260 silver elasticized chelsea boots???

Shakuhachi ankle booties

Yes, I have been /slightly/ obsessed with them. If only I could afford them! Though, even if i could I probably wouldn't spent them on such a fleeting trend such as silver/opalescence/holographic. It reminds me of when I was infactuated with creepers a while ago. While I still am fond of the footwear, I remember one time I was visiting a market, and a beautiful pair revealed themselves to me. they were good condition, and my size. also $80, since I guess they were at the peak of popularity or something. And as I held the object of my "undying" adoration, my hand stopped reaching to my wallet. Something in my gut told me these would easily become a cliche. I put them down. Painful, yes. But I used some of my saved money for a giant Jamaican patty... hmm...

You might have noticed my blog now has a gif collection going on, inspired by http://lovecatsinbinbags.blogspot.ca, who has a little gif collection as well! :)

Black is the traditional colour

Idk I'm just really paranoid about stalkers so I disguise myself. I GOT THIS SWEATER FROM THE THRIFT STORE FOR LIKE 5 BUCKS. It smelled like weed but I washed it with some heavy detergent and now it's all good. It's huge, but I love it. :) I kind of reminds me of Jeremy Scott's bart Simpspon sweater that's been gracing like, every fashion blog. So it's definitely en-trend, and that's nice. The sad thing was I had to choose between this, shell earrings, and a mini leather backpack from Peru that was all tourist-y. Sigh. No worries, this was the obvious winner.

Grl Crush: "Shannyn Sossamon"

Since the very first time I saw Shannyn Sossamon in "A Knight's Tale" alongside Heath Ledger, I was in awe of Lady Jocelyn's grace and exotic beauty. She was just so mysterious! I did some research at the tender age of 10 on my mom's computer and found she was a mixed-race lady, like me. She soon became a subconscious role model. I cut my hair to my chin and did my best to achieve the messy/nonchalant look she so effortlessly mastered. As an inactive child of books, movies, and video-games, I unfortunately could not emulate her dancer's body. :( But I definitely caught the bad girl look, being the bad-ass, man eater, sharpie tattoo artist of the 7th grade. I desperately applied pseudo-eyeshadow (bronzer) to my 12 year old eyelids to achieve the dark, yet natural look she had.

Something about her is so effortless, like the fact she wasn't even TRYING to become an actress! She moved to L.A. to be a dancer, and did GAP commercials to pay her rent. Once she realized she liked to act, she went for the part of lady Jocelyn and totally persisted until they couldn't ignore her anymore. Totally great and I love her that is all.
