I always feel so torn when buying Adidas by Stella McCartney. It's more expensive due to the design (but the design is very nice!), but do I really need to pay extra only to sweat in it? I tell myself it was 50% off, from $55 to $27.50 and plus I only own two sports bras so with one extra I won't have to recycle during the week.

Stella McCartney for Adidas Sports Bra
In a moment of weakness (even though I banned myself from shoppnig until NYC next month), I went to Adidas a few weeks ago during the 50% off sale and ended up picking up an Adidas by Stella McCartney sports bra. It's quite unique and different than your usual sports bra, due to its bright orange colour, the material, and its adjustable straps.

Mackage Jordana Jacket
So I caved and purchased my first leather jacket (although it set me back a pretty penny)!!! I always wanted a motorcycle jacket... it looks almost brown in the picture, but it is most definitely a black! I could've gotten a cheaper one, but I figured that you only really need one leather jacket and might as well get one that is really nice and detailed.
UPDATE July 17, 2011: So I was browsing Aritzia's site and they have this Mackage Kenya jacket that looks a lot like the Jordana, except it's an Aritzia exclusive.... I would say I would be a bit sad if all the Aritzia girls start wearing my jacket :( to the point where Danier copies them!
My Sandals Picks of the Saks 70% Sale
If only I lived in the states, I would totally order the Rag and Bone Royston Leather & Suede Wedge Sandals. From $395 to $139.77 what a steal!! They're like flat forms but with a bit of heel. Drooly... too bad shipping and duties put it to $210, which is still half the price but a little expensive to buy without having tried it on first.
I also really like DVF's Drama Braided Chain Canvas Sandal. It looks super fun! From $227 to $79, also a steal!
Lastly, I am drooling over the Jimmy Choo Hunters currently on clearance from $428 to $149!! Although I already have a pair of rainboots, a croco print would really complete my collection.
So today, on a spur of the moment even though I'm super broke this month, I caved and brought new sandals, Sam Edelman's Eli sandal to be exact. You can't really see the details from my own picture though.

Anthropologie Sun-stitched Skirt
Ever since I saw this item in the catalog, I really liked it! So I went and got the elephant tank last time it was on sale, and now I put the skirt on hold at the store and it is also currently on sale. What to do... because I already have so many skirts, but of course not a yellow one with embroidery on it! It's as if I am really in India!
As a side note, I am a little disappointed that the Gladiolus Skirt is unavailable in stores in Canada. Does that mean it sold out before it made it to stores? :(
Given that it is supposed to thundershower tomorrow, what I am supposed to do? Should I still bus my ass there to check it out? Hmmmmm

Aritzia Presale Spring Summer 2011
I got the invite to go to the Aritzia presale, and of course I couldn't help but buy some stuff!
The silk top makes me think of modern leopards! |
I got the cape! YAY! It was the last one! |
These Jbrand mid-rise jeans looked too good not to buy :( |
Now I am super broke!!! I'm actually half surprised that I didn't buy even more.

Recent Anthro Purchases
While procrastinating for my exam, I went to Anthro and brought a whole bunch of dresses! They are all so gorgeous, but in the end I decided to only keep one.
Anna Sui x Anthro - I don't look that great in green :( and it was too crazy for me. |
Apparently, not only was it seen on Taylor Swift, but also on Glee! I decided not to keep this one either. |
At first it looked great! But then I decided I have enough shift dresses at home. |
It's funny because this was like everyone's favourite (of those I asked for their opinion), but no. Green isn't the best colour for me. |
I ended up only keeping this one! A bit hippy, but I like it...! |
after a bit of hiatus... summer sales are here!
So in the last few days, all my favourite stores at the mall have suddenly went on sale! For example, today I had no intention of going to Zara but as I passed by I realized that the summer sale had just started. How could I resist?
So... I tried to control myself and ended up with a few items. Now I am really broke!

I really need a pale pink cardigan... because I don't have one!
I was going to go out and buy Jbrands, but why spend $200 when you can spend $30?
This would be fun for work!
Maybe when it's matched with this top?
