My new Minnetonka Mocassins

On August 29, 2008 · 26 Comments
Hello Darlings,

Today I was shopping for jeans, tees and make up, when I discovered my favorite Chanel bronzer and Lancome lip gloss were limited edition and no longer available. Limited editions should be available for special order. It so unfair when a girl finds a perfect shade of pink lip gloss and now it's gone, so I had to stick with Dior.

Me = Blind

Another challenge today was shopping for Contact Lenses. I am pretty blind, and have been wearing contacts for about 8 years. I don't like wearing glasses, and I don't even own a pair. I wear my contacts from morning to evening, and change them often which means I buy tons of them. My favorite ones are Acuvue Oasys - however, I hate going to the doctor so I usually buy them on line. My experience online shopping for contacts has been great, so if you need them too check out discount contacts who have great prices.

And for the blogger tags, I will pass the torch to Couture Carrie, who shares my love for fashion, and my passion for fine art and architecture. She inspires me with her daily fashion undated and stunning photos and I look forward to each and every post :) oooh yea, and did I mention that she got me addicted to J Brand Jeans and today I purchased my second pair ( in a month).

With Love...

Girly girl in a man’s man world …. :P

Hello Darlings,

I had an action packed weekend, including on Friday going to a football game. I had a blast, even though our team lost (I was told that happens a lot). Although surrounded by about 85% men (not complaining) I felt so comfortable with my own beer in hand....

After the game, we went to the game's after party and the rest is a history :P But I will admit that my preference is going to Maple Leaf hockey games, not that they win either :)

I'm a girly girl but still love sports and even used to play baseball on school team... So here is my question : CAN A GIRLY GIRL BE A TOMBOY AT HEART?

Johnny Dale who is an author of The Darling Budds , mentioned my post about scarves in his awesome blog - thank you so much :)  

With Love...

My Passion in Hayden Cashmere

On August 13, 2008 · 16 Comments
Hello Darlings,

This blog is very personal and truly does represent who I am. So today I thought to write about my studies in fine art and architecture at the University of Toronto (with a few style photos interspersed of my new Hayden Cashmere sweater - since this is a fashion blog after all).

Here's a bit of info about my life as a student .... :P
I am going into my third year at the University of Toronto doing a specialist in Fine Art and Architecture. I am also learning German and doing research with four different professors, and it is my hope that one day I can share my passion by educating and further researching in this field... maybe doing my PhD or becoming a professor myself, following in the footsteps of my family.... who always inspire and support me (Дуже дякую за вашу підтримку) Therefore, I have decided to include the occasional Fine Art and Architecture posts... I hope that you enjoy them and if there is anything that you would like to suggest, please do so my leaving me a comment or e-mailing me :D

I am wearing: Hayden Fuchsia Cashmere Sweater J brand Skinnies Browns Couture Italian Leather Flats TNA Wool Scarf Swarowski Love Charm Bracellet SCROLL DOWN FOR MY POST ON LEONARDO DA VINCI .... :)
