Let the fall shopping spree begin!

I was eyeing these for some time now and  as always had the headrest time to pick  the colors and click that "PLACE YOUR ORDER" space. But I guess today was the day. I did it! 

I started my fall shopping yesterday. Which was very successful, and a new fall/winter coat is now nicely hanging in the closet, waiting for its time. As well as a new (very cute, I promise) clutch!  

I am still on the look out for a new leather jacket and a black bag. 

I think I'm done buying pants, but new winter boots is a must! Last year I had no luck with boots, so I hope this year to do better in that department.

{Ahh... can't wait to put these on}

Neck workout...purchase from Zara

It might be a serious neck workout to wear this piece. But what a love at first sight:)

Bag stories

Shopping addiction is still going strong.

 Just as if I don't have enough bags, I've been eyeing some of these.

 The good news is that some of them are starting to go on sale.  The bad news is  - I'm very indecisive and will probably change my mind like million times before I actually pick the one I like. There are so many good bags out there. 

Last week I went through my bag collection and gave up few of my bags to my mom.  

Therefore, I'm looking for some replacements:)

1. Python Embossed clutch by Allibelle 

2. Cross body bag by Z Spoken Zac Posen 

3. Shirley Bow satchel by Z Spoke Zac Posen

4. Back Pocket clutch by Marc By Marc Jacobs

Summer days

Hi guys!

Just a recap of last Sunday. Morning was spent at this lovely farm, where we got to pick some sweet peas and strawberries. The weather was perfect too, couldn't ask for better.

How is everyone's summer going so far?

 XOXO, Olya

Hey guys!

Welcome to all of my new readers! I'm very excited to have you here on my blog!

And hello to my old readers, who've hung around through these couple of rough months. 

I hope everyone is doing well. 

Just wanted to stop by and share with you my latest addition to the shoe family that I have at a current residence of mine.  These are as perfect as I would want them to be. Very comfortable  and oh so pretty.

Eye Candy. Proper Introduction

I've had these in my closet for a while, and even wore them once, but never introduced them properly. I got them from Macys with my Christmas gift cards, which means they cost me nothing.

Vinve Camuto.Original price was $120

things I came across with...

So, today we had yet another snow day. And all I did was pick up my room a little, read some articles, googled some wedding ideas, and of course shopped. I found this next item to be very popular between few different designers and brands and of course prices range. So, look at this: the black wedge on the left is from Steve Madden ($99.95) and the one on the right is by DVF, is sold at shopbop.com ($295). Let's do the math.... it's $195.05!!!

Then I was also looking at bags, because I do love my Speedy 35, but I feel like I also need an everyday bag that I can put over my shoulder. And I came across this See by Chloe bag on My Wardrobe.com ($577) It's really lovely, but I'm not sure which color I like better.

And last and least expensive from this bunch is this necklace from shopbop.com. ($42)

Even though I felt like buying things, I decided to stop myself. So, no purchases as of right now.

I've been good to my wallet;)

A little shopping haul.

Due to enormous sales and specials I've been hitting my bank account very hard. I've done some Christmas shopping as well already, so I'm not being totally selfish;)

Zara light brown suede pumps. They are pointed toe pumps with a preety high heel. I do find them hard to walk in though, just because the heel is not very stable. I don't know about you guys, but I've noticed that all my Zara shoes have that problem. Maybe I need to stop going after a thin heel and pick a more chunky one. But that's besides the point. I love them anyway and can't wait to wear them.
Now, I know nude is so last year. However, I could never find a perfect pair before. And by that I mean, I could never find the perfect pair that my wallet could afford. I even told myself to forget about it and stop looking for them. So, guess what happened? Yesterday, I went to TJmaxx just to look around and I saw these! and in my size! just sitting there by themselves! They were $40, which in my opinion is a good deal. They fit very well and are made by Guess. These are my first Guess shoes, so I'm not sure how long they will last me, but yeah, it was a very exciting moment;)
And last... drum roll... My Lanvin for H&M dress was delivered this week and I was very excited to try it on. I didn't pay more then it was in the store (bought it on eBay), and did not regret buying a black one. Do you guys remember, they had this dress in bright yellow? It was more popular than this boring black. But I like to keep thing simple, so it works for me.

The quality is not the best, but the ruffles stay puffed out in place and do not go flat ( I thought they would), which is perfect. I had some problems with the zipper, but after 20 min or so I figured it out. It was stuck on some piece of material and would not go up or down. Does this ever happen to you? to me - very often. Over all i am satisfied, but do not think it's worth the money. Why I bought it? Because it's Lanvin;)

I hope this post wasn't too boring. I just felt like sharing some of my latest purchases with you guys. I also bought a ton of skin care and beauty products. But I will just include the ones that I like in my monthly favorites.

Tomorrow is Monday! Boo! But Christmas is coming!!!!

Dress me like a boy!

Due to the excessive use of my denim shirt, I've been really into manly dress code. For me it's the edge of the look and the comfort. Most of the time it's loose fitting and soft material - every day wear. I think we all love our slouchy denim shorts, or boyfriend jeans, don't we?

I am also obsessed with the "minimalist" coat designs that are so in this season.

I have one yet to share with you.

Happy Sunday, everyone!!!

xoxo, Olya
