A steal of a deal!
want designer shades? but don’t want to pay full price? While alot of people go on ebay or other online sites, sometimes when spending massive amounts of money on small items I want to make sure I am getting authentic items.
Costco has CRAZY deals on tons of designer shades, Burberry, D&G, Marc Jacobs, and soo much more, they are more than 50% off of prices that appear in Sunglass hut or other specialty places. My sister just bought a sweet pair of Burberry sunglasses for $119!! They retail for almost $300! They had crystal D&G’s for $199, I cant believe the prices on these. So make sure you check our your costco, they get new stock in all the time so check back frequently until you find the shades of your dreams.
News from Coach!
HAMPTONS WEEKEND STRIPE MEDIUM TOTE $248!
So Im planning on taking a little trip out to Vancouver in 2 weeks and called the Coach store there to see if they had this bag I liked. They did, and I asked what the price difference was, they said no price difference, soooo US prices ARE the Canadian prices!! This excites me, so check out Coach.com for the amazing new colourful April bags!
Sorry, I have to complain again!
So maybe it’s just the time of year, ending the semester, stressed and just plain tired, but things have been extra annoying lately!
This morning I went to get a coffee at Esquires (in Lethbridge), now I’ve had bad experiences there over and over again but I continue to go back because it’s right by the buses and I only have 5 minutes between buses to grab a coffee.
ANyways .. they always take forever to make a coffee.. even if there’s 4 employees and only 1 customer,,, last week when I went there they made me a latte that wasnt even warm!! They forgot to steam the milk and then this morning I waited sooo long for my coffee and no one was even making it, people that were behind me were getting their food to stay before I got my coffee to go.
Needless to say this annoys me!! And what annoys me more is when I asked if I could please get my coffee because I had to catch my bus, the girl made it finally then slammed it down on the counter without even looking at me.
Trust me, I’ve worked customer service allllllong time and I know customers are annoying but I was just trying to get a coffee before work, wasn’t being rude. Next time I think I’ll try to make it to Penny Coffee house, I LLLLOVE it there!
Don’t have a bird!
Have you noticed that the celebrities are adorning feathers lately? This detail has been showing up quite a bit on the red carpet lately,,,, and I must be ahead of my time cuz my grad dress had ocstich feathers on it :O!
Here’s some beautiful examples:
Remember there can be too much of a good thing … you want a touch of feathers.. .but you don’t want to end up looking like a bird!! (remember Bjork and her swan dress ???)
Designer Spotlight : Betsy Johnson!
After that last depressing post I thought I would cheer things up with a little Betsy Johnson, she is a fabulous designer with tons of fun colourful clothes.
Her prom dresses are popular and super cute, they will cost you about $400. Be prepared for bows, lace and ruffles!!
She also has fun handbags, very reasonably priced (lots under $100). Although this style is not for me, it might fit someone who is a little more excentric in their style choice.
Random Rant
Well seeing as I am a managment student I have to do ALOT of group work, now I usually don’t have problems with people but this one group project is driving me crazy!! I’m a good student, pretty decent grades and I always try but when I get into groups with extreamly domaneering group members I just want to give up.
To think these people are the future leaders of companies and who knows what else. People who are so rude and right out mean, I just don’t understand how putting other people down will help your group project?
Maybe I just think things should be more on an individual basis, I’m the odd person out here and is it fair that I have to do what they want because they have the numbers in their favour? (ps these group members are friends and girls… need I say more?). Whenever I make a suggestion they act like I’m stupid, can’t win with these people.
Next time there is a group project I think I will opt to do the work myself! Any suggestions on how I can not take this personally??

Starbucks
Have you noticed the new accessories lately? Ya a little dog is cute, along with an over sized designer bag, but more and more celebrities (and everyone else) are starting to show off their Starbucks drink as an accessory. Whether it’s a tall triple non fat latte, or a venti iced caramel caramel macchiato. People love their coffee and all you have to do is look at the side of the cup, at the black markings to know what they are enjoying! Coffee right now is very hot!! (or cold .. k, bad joke but I had to!)
More tanning!
SO I’ve covered spray on tans and I thought I would now tell you how to have a great “real” tan.
- Don’t stay in the sun for hours, take breaks, cool off
- Keep hydrated, (might no help your tan but it will help you prevent sun stroke!)
- Moisturize!!
- Moisturize!! this keeps your skin from peeling and keeps your tan lasting longer
- if you do get burned, stay out of the sun until it heals! tanning on sun burnt skin will just leave it looking even worse!
- If you are very pale, still use an spf! you can still get a tan and this way it will occur more gradually rather than burning your first time.
- Try to avoid the sun when it’s at it’s hottest, (usually 11-3). the rays are strong and you can burn easier.
- protect your face!! sun ages the skin and a tanned face can be achieved by using bronzers
- And lastly don’t over tan.. you’ll end up like the lady below ..Yikes!
Last Bikini for this week…
This is a sexy, original, “monokini” from victoria secret. It comes in this playful Zebra, black or red. It shows off skin without being too provacative. I love this piece! It is great for a little tummy coverage, shows off your back and your boobs, fabulous!! (ooo and how could I forget, only $60~)
