Earlybird Spring Dresses Shopping Guide

It's a bit too early to be wearing spring clothes, but it's never too early to shop for them.  I can't ever seem to find my size when I wait til the peak of the season to make the purchase. Also, when it comes to super trendy designer clothes, they're sold out while you're still shopping!  So, if you are a fan of  Prabal Gurung, Mary Katrantzou, or Christopher Kane, now is the time to get your coveted items or pre-order them. These are some of my favorite pieces from their respective RTW collections from 2013 & 2014. I just love how artsy, cool, and vibrant these spring dresses are.

Love & beauty actually...are all around you

 Zuhair Murad's Spring 2014 couture collection was definitely love at first sight. The leaf-motif gold belts, the beautiful pastel spring colors, classic silhouettes, guipure lace, embroidery, embellishments, and floral appliques made me long for spring!

Polar vortex calls for comfy parkas and hot tea

Polar vortex calls for comfy parkas and hot tea
January's bone-chilling cold is here and it has hit hard in many states, some places like North Dakota is like the new Antarctica. I'm picturing the life of polar bears, penguins, albatross, Antarctic fur seals, and Orcas and how nature has equipped them with naturally fat and fur as insulation. Unlike  these polar ice animals, we spend a lot of money to  keep ourselves warm in the winter. One of the cheapest way to keep warm though -- is simply by drinking hot tea. My favorite is jasmine tea. I drink up to 5 cups of hot tea a day when it gets really cold.

Kick-start 2014 with slithering snakeskin boots



It's officially 2014 and I am super excited to wet your new year's  appetite with some gorgeous boots that will keep your inner fireworks flying for the rest of this winter.  I recently had a heart-ful conversation with a dear friend about life, hopes, and dreams; we are the type of dreamers who dream big but live small.  We are filled with a sense of wonder and when it comes to shoes, we share that love too. So, this post is dedicated to her, and I thought a post about gorgeous boots is a great way to kick-start 2014 with high-flying style.


1. GIVENCHY - one of my favorite luxury brands.  When I have my eyes on  new things, including shoes, I'm usually fixed on a certain detail that pops like the cool printed green and silver pattern and slightly curvy heels. 

Welcome 2014 with slithering snakeskin boots

How to avoid buying the wrong quilted puffer coat

quilted puffer coats buying tips



I'm originally a Cali girl, but I lived in NY for some time before moving to the D.C metro area . You can get through winter just fine without a puffer coat in Cali. It is not the same if you live in the N.E (U.S).  Here, everyone needs a puffer coat -- the #1 winter essential.  Because it is such an important piece of clothing that you'll be wearing for 3-4 months, why not take the time to buy one that not only keeps you warm but also looks good on you ? You can achieve comfort and style, even with a puffer coat! A great looking and fitting coat can get you through several winters, so let's avoid becoming a victim of bad fashion.

'Underworld' + 'The Matrix' Inspired Hybrid Black Winter Coats

badass black winter coats

Snow came early this year for us--not flurries but actual snow! I did not expect our local weather to dip in the 20's degree Fahrenheit a few days ago, which prompted me to gear up for freezing temperatures in thick coats and layers. Thank goodness everything from last year still fits !!!

CYBER MONDAY - Great Savings for Online Shoppers



cyber monday

So, I did mention that I didn't visit any retail stores for black Friday deals but I am 100% guilty of  black Friday online shopping (shhh!). H&M.com is where I frequently shop because they have new sales every week usually until this week--they had new items  on-sale every 24 hours! But if you snoozed you would have missed out on them because they were sold like hotcakes (most went out of stock within 5 hours). I was checking their site very early every morning this whole week--it was my motivation to get up early! lol.  New sales started at 3 a.m EST, so I sacrificed my beauty sleep for the savings--totally worth it!


This brings me to the next hot topic: CYBER MONDAY! (aka: online shopper's biggest shopping day of the year after Thanksgiving weekend). If you are wondering about how Cyber Monday deals stack against Black Friday's...here's what Yahoo Finance has to say:
"Cyber Monday deals are better on clothing and shoes, whereas Black Friday deals are better on electronics." But overall, Cyber Monday deals are still super, so make sure you act before it's over.


These are just a few sites I will be stalking on Monday (most likely while everyone else is in bed sleeping and dreaming) for very specific items:

H&M.com: 
40% off your entire purchase of $50.00 or more with free shipping
For things I probably won't need but totally want.

Walmart.com: For a sewing machine, gifts for my niece and nephew
[ Celebrate Cyber Monday at Walmart.com!]

Kohls.com (starts Saturday): For new luggage
[20% off Everything Site wide. Code CYBERWEEK. Offer valid 11.30 through 12.4!]

Nordstrom.com: For coats
[Shop NORDSTROM for Cyber Monday deals in Beauty. Plus, get free shipping on every order.]

Avon.com: For a make-up palette
[ Holiday Special - Mega Palette only $19.99 (80 Value) + Free Shipping Offer!]


Do you ever stalk an online sale like  a hawk? Tell me your crazy story...would love to hear it.

How about you? If you are going to soak up Cyber Monday deals...where will you shop and for what?

How was your previous Cyber Monday experience?
