TGIF

TGIF...my mom put this as her facebook status last friday...and I had no idea what it meant until my DBF explained to me....haha...I'm surprised that my mom's more "in" with these words and acronyms than I am.

I have been sick for the past week...which really sucks....especially having to cough out loud in lectures....how embarrassing. On a happier note, I love Fridays nowadays because it is my day off. Originally I planned to get as much homework and studying out of the way as possible...but my plan failed miserably haha. By the time I woke up, it was already around noon, then I finished watching Rachel Zoe Project (I LOVE the show) online.

Afterwards, I had to run some errands, and so I stopped by my old workplace because 2 of my friends were working. We grabbed coffee, had a great chat and made amazing plans for these coming weeks. Seeing them made me so happy and emotional at the same time.

Today's day outfit: T-shirt - gift (I absolutely adore skulls and my best friend definitely knows that!), black and white tights (American Apparel), fringe cowboy boots (mom's)

Then I had to rush home to get ready for an event that DBF and I attended to tonight. It was a charity fashion show put together by a girl that I went to school with. For the event, I wore a royal blue dress, with patent mohagony boots and of course, topped it off with my new McQ Alexander McQueen jacket that I purchased from LuisaViaRoma (which I will take a picture of later). I was so happy because my jacket received so many compliments, it really made my night!

As far as accessories go....I have a WEAKKKKKKK spot for accessories



I bought these rings off eBay, there were about $1 each along with free shipping!


worn with mom's Baume & Mercier and a Lub Lub bracelet that DBF made for me (yes I made him sit down for a beading session with me a while ago hehe)

Everyone's going on with this "Krazy bands" craze, including my sister (who was attending the Cirque du Soleil show with my mom)!


And in this pic...you can see the sleeves of my McQ Alexander McQueen jacket!! A full proper pic will be coming soon! As far as accessories go: watch - Baume & Mercier, bracelets - Lub Lub by LS (www.lublubbyls.com), rings - eBay, nail polish - Chanel Paradoxal.

I have a busy weekend ahead of me! Tomorrow evening, I am helping my mom to throw a birthday bash for a few of her girlfriends at our house. I am such a freak when it comes to party planning, everything has to be perfect, and I will pay attention to the tiniest details - it scares my DBF when I plan parties haha. Then the rest of the weekend will be full of studying and spending time with my family and DBF.

DBF and I are planning to go away for a week around mid-October. Our current options are...Punta Cana/ London/ Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur (as his parents have a vacation home there) Hmmm....tough decision!!!!

Stay chic. Stay glam.
